Dinner at Diana's place

Heya! Yesterday I had dinner at Diana's place. She was leaving for the Canary Islands today and invited us over for dinner. It was delicious!

Shakira definetly needs to start learning how to bite people!

Aren't Priscilla and Shakira the cutest??

 

Today I'm really tired. My asshole neighbour had an afterparty from 3am til 7am!! Fucking dickhead! I have just slept 4 hours! I heard the noise even though I had earplugs and slept on the couch with my TV on!!! Nothing makes me angrier than people making noise when I am trying to sleep! I felt like Bruce Banner right before he turns into The Incredible Hulk!! And of course the day was busy at work. Full hotel. Someone's going to bed early tonight!

The Gina Tricot dress

Happy Easter!

I know lots of you are already on vacation. Like Jonny who left today... And here I am, preparing myself to miss him and getting psichologically ready to work. I've gotta save up! Being broke is not in my plans anymore! The good thing is that working in vacation time means more $$$!!

Chaging subjects....I don't know if I'm the only one, but as a girl I hate to know I have a new dress hanging in the closet and not wearing it! It's a summer dress, but here in Norway it doesn't look like summer's going to visit us any time soon. It's my Gina Tricot dress, remember? I LOOOVE it!!! 

Don't mind my "angry" face. I wasn't trying to look sour but the sun was shinning right into my eyes and blinded me for a while

Do you like the necklace? I've had it for a couple of years and never found anything to match it with.
Do you like it? I love that I don't need a bra to wear it and the stripes can be taken off as well!

Crappy day, anyone?

All of you who feel like you woke up being 120 years old raise your hands!!! I see one hand over there.... oh yes, MINE!!! I am in so bad shape today! I feel odd. I've been having hot flashes and then suddenly cold sweat. I guess I'm starting to get sick? Also the regular tiredness and back pain... Guess this is a preview of what retirement is gonna look like! What amazes me is that no matter the years, I still haven't lost the ability of drinking 3 cups of coffee and still manage to look like a fucking zombie! Unexplainable...

These are pictures of a couple of days ago, when I made homemade pancakes. It's been a long time since I've made them myself from scratch.

Here we eat pancakes with bacon, sour cream and strawberry marmalade. Sounds awkward yes, but don't judge until you try it! The first time I heard about it I thought it sounded like an awful combination.. until I tried it and LOVED it!
Wish you all a happy weekend! Blog you later!

Gina Tricot

Hello!! I forgot to show you this gorgeous summerdress I bought at Gina Tricot. I love that shop! Costs NOK 199 (aprox. 24€). Thoughts?

 

Thursday

Good moooorning!!! (Notice I use the word 'morning' vaguely since it's 2pm). Are some of you wondering why am I holding a drumstick?

You have probably noticed it's got my name on it. Yesterday Jonny and I were drinking (yes, on a wednesday) at a friend of his named Torgeir who's the drummer in a band. Torgeir has been at our place lots of times, nice guy. His drumstick's brand is Nova so he'd just crossed out the N and painted an E where the O was... and voilà, it says Eva.

And he of course signed it for me, too! Maybe someday if they're really famous this will cost $$$$!!! Hehehe!
Check out their site here! Torgeir is the one to the right!
Now I've gotta take a shower and wash my hair. I've got a work meeting at 8pm. Kind of sucks but I get paid for 3 hours and we get to eat pizza from Egon, so it's not really a bad deal hehe!
Blog you later!

Tuesday in town

Heyhooo!!! I've just comed home from the city! I went to Choco Bocco with Doribeth and Diana. Look what I got! Doribeth was the Easter Bunny and gave us an Easter egg - which I have now placed in my Easter table center.

Candytime!

The only non-edible element in my egg - panties!

And we payed a visit to Traktøren. I love that shop! They've got everything for the kitchen! You have springforms in the shape of a heart, a star, an Easter chicken.... etc, in all colors and sizes!! So the three of us bought this coffee termocups. Nice huh? I can drink coffee on my way to work and look less zombie when I start my day!
I also bought a summerdress at Gina Tricot and some fruit tea that I couldn't find before. Happy tuesday everyone!

Sunny sunday

You are not Norwegian until you find yourself making daily observations on how's the weather! Today it was a pretty day! Beautiful sun, warmer (not warm, but warmER) temperature, no clouds on the sky... the conditions outside are perfect. So I decided to walk to work instead for taking the buss... Errr... I'm such a liar! The real deal is I missed the buss therefore I HAD TO walk to work.

Considering the fine conditions I took my camera and snapped a couple of pictures: the first one from the coastline 5 min away from our place. And the second one from the Ila church. I'd say it's gothic because of the pointed shape of the windows and doors, but then again what the fuck do I know about architecture!

And I finally arrived at work. This is the face of someone whose idea of sunday fun does not include and apron and a mop! (Please look away from the dirty mirror on which the image is reflecting. It's the changing room. It usually takes an amazing time of 10 minutes from the moment you're done washing until the next person washed their hands and everything is back to shitty). If someone from work is reading this, I'd like to appeal for a more careful use of this common area: I've got to deal with it later!

On the bright side, I left the hotel with two bags full of beer bottles that our guests had left behind. Guess who was really happy when I got back home!
I'm also getting a cold. I've just gone past a couple of days of really dry cough and now I'm in the middle of the itchy nose and sneeze phase. And I thought you couldn't get sick if you have C-vitamin daily. I drink orange juice everyday! Why am I sick?!
How was your sunday??

Origami!

Hellooo! Yesterday night I was at Susanne's birthday party! I'm glad she liked the nightdress I bought her! I haven't got any pictures of the night because my camera was out of batteries, but Susanne took some. I hope she'll post soon!

Today I've been doing some origami! Jonny bought an origami kit from Play.com, and it is pretty entertaining for when you can't go out because you're working on sunday (ehem!).

A rabbit and a crab

These are all the figures. Jonny made the yellow swan and the yellow face. I made the rest: a red crab, the white bunny, a green penguin and a pink faceless fox. The fox isn't really that cool...

Ouch!!!

I burned myself with the oven while heating pizza! Do you see it? Down to the left on my hand.

And finally a picture of the jacket that I got from Dori and Diana that you all wanted to see! It's Jean Paul! The only Jean Paul I know is Jean Paul Gaultier, but considering he is a high fashion designer I don't think we're talking about the same Jean Paul here. Jonny told me though that Jean Paul is quite fancy and a lot of snobs use that brand hehe! Anyway, I like it and he most important: it is a warm jacket!

Gotta go now! I've got to call my parents and let them know I'm still alive! Haven't talked to them in a while now!
Blog you later!

For all of you cosmetic fans!

This is a site you can't miss!!! It's called StrawberryNET.com and they have the leader brands (Clarins, Clinique, GloMinerals, Dior, Lancaster... etc) at cheaper prices than in the regular stores! I highly recommend you take a look at it. Click here and check that the portos are also cheap! They deliver all over Europe, so check out the website from your country!

You welcome!!!

Tuesday's hapennings

The title of this post might as well sound more interesting than it really is but I hate to have to think on titles for my posts! Sooo... I woke up around 12:15 (yeaaaahhh, I sleep THAT much!) and I took a quick shower, and Doribeth picked me up with the car. I was waiting for her by the sidewalk and it was soooo slippery outside, so I tried to walk carefully towards her car, and I was complaining about how slippery it all was when I opened the car's door and.. BOOOOM!!! My boots went bananas and I fell on my ass!!! Luckily for me I was wearing a long coat that functioned as a pillow for my booty! And well, my street isn't very popular so I would like to think nobody but us saw that!

Auuu...my buuuuuum!!

So after that, we drove to pick up Diana and we had lunch at Egon. I still have my discount card... well, not really! I thought I had it, so I open my wallet and show the waiter my discount card. And he stares at me weird, and me who is not good at getting why he stares at me like that, I just smile back. And then he gives me my card back and when I looked at it it says "2009".. which means it has basically EXPIRED!! But I didn't say anything and just "lalalalalaaaa...", so in the end he have me and my friends 25% off anyway! YESSSS!!

And we sat there for like 3 hours. You knoooooww?? Diana and Dori bought me a winter jacket!! I borrowed Diana's winter jacket last year when I went to Trysil for the first time, because I didn't have any, and they remembered! So they bought me a lovely light blue winter jacket!! Mealts my heart!!! THANK YOU GIRLS!!!!

After Dori and I went to H&M. I bought Susanne her birthday present. I'm not gonna say what it is 'cause I know she reads my blog haha!

When I came home, Jonny had washed the apartment and was making dinner. We had guests today, so I helped by staying away from his food hahaha!!! Everyone knows I don't have a Gordon Ramsay in me! But I tried to help as much as I could though, and everything went down as planned. So our guests came, and we enjoyed a delicious beef with mushroom sauce and gratinated potatoes. For dessert chocolate and rum cake. Mmmm! Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves with the food. My boyfriend is great at cooking (jealous anyone? haha). So we drank wine and just talked. Now they're out in town drining some more wine. I'm tired though. Not for any particular reason, but I have to be very much in the mood for going to town now. It's such a long walk... and sometimes I really just want peace and quiet. I don't have the same stamina as when I was 20. Jonny has it though. He's partied saturday, sunday and today. Hehe, I must be really weird! 

Hairxperiments!

A couple of days ago I was washing my hair and really didn't want to spend too much time styling it, so what I did was to braid it all while it was wet, spray it all with a styling product (Anti-Freezy by Franck Provost) and sleep like that. When I woke up in the morning, I sprayed my hair again and undid the braids. Then I used hairspray to fix. And this is the result:

It looks a bit like Taylor Swift, doesn't it? It was looking pretty great, but all the spraying didn't help and at the end of the day I came back home looking like a poodle... :-(
Obviously I did something wrong so that the do didn't hold up for that long... Has any of you tried to do this before?
Well, gotta go! I am going to try the Catalan cream my boyfriend has made! We're preparing tomorrow's dessert. We're having some of his friends over for dinner! See yaaa!!

Yesterday's events

Goooood moooorning!!!

It'd be a hell of a better one without this headache. Yes, yesterday it was partytime! We had vorspiel at Jonny's bestfriend and then we went to the city and drank beer. I drank the Absolutt Pears with Sprite. And I felt in a really good mood! And you know what? This year I AM GONNA BE A RUSS!!!! Hahaha! You read right!

Frank is getting his highschool degree so he is going to be Russ this year, and since this is something SOOOO NORWEGIAN, and I studied highschool in Spain, I always felt a bit sorry I was never going to experience the Russetid. So through Frank's account I ordered my very own Russpants, Russhat and Russjersey! The red ones of course! :-)

I've explained what Russ is before, but for those of you who don't know. Here in Norway when students are done with highschool they have a half a month period called Russetid, when they are Russ. They dress in some funny pants, with a hat (like the one in the picture) and they spend those days hanging out with their friends, getting drunk and making tests (similar to those of when you play "Truth or Dare"). Like f.ex. make out with someone from the same gender, drink 5 beers in 5 minutes, bike in your underwear, read a porn magazine out loud, etc!

It is this kind of experience that pretty much every Norwegian has been through, so why not me? I know I am 25 years old and I am not a student. I graduated from highschool when I was 18! Still, will I ever have the chance to do this? Probably not.... so why shouldn't I try? I'm gonna be a fake Russ, but have all the fun!

These are some pictures from the Russ clothes, you can find them in different colors according to what you are gonna study, but the most common are the red clothes.

Still home alone... how boring! I thought that people who live together with someone really appreciate the 'alonetimes'. When Jonny left today I thought: "Well, this is the perfect time to do everything I can not do when he is here!". But after a while I realized there is nothing I do not do when he is here anyway! I can do girl stuff when he's there. So instead I decided to wash up the apartment like a maniac. I could have gone to Dori's place since she lives nearby.. but it's snowing like hell outside, and I didn't bother to even get dressed. I've spent all day with a white shirt and my F.C.Barcelona pants (humm.... sexy!).

Since the last post I have checked the internet (of course), have made some tea, watched MTV (what a crappy channel btw!) and changed the bedsheets. Yes, I'm so bored I am blogging about my bedsheets! I found some old sheets; the blue ones are Jonny's and the orange are mine, so I used both of them and now our bed doesn't match... Blogging about bed sheets... I have to get a hobby!

 

Being a good housewifey

Finally today I had free from work! I was so exhausted lately... Full hotel and I was working all alone. Today I spent the day cleanning the apartment. Dusting, vacuuming the sofa, washing the floor, scrubbing the oven, doing laundry, and even washing away all the marks from our white walls!

I need to get my energy back! Mmmm omelette!

And yes! Here it's snowing, too!

Now I think I will relax, watch a movie, make some tea and after that I'll shower and watch Sex and the City or something. I should go the do some grocery shopping but I am too tired. I should spare some energy til tomorrow... I gotta go back to work!

How's your day?

Easter is early this year

Hello my Easter bunnies! This year I decided Easter is going to come earlier. Just because. Last year Easter was also in April... and I want a vacation ASAP!!! Since I am not in the situation where I can decide to have free from work, I thought I would treat myself to some Easter goodies. Well, actually you all know I do not like candy, so the Easter egg with candy is for Jonny. But I am going to satisfy my need for sugar in the next days!

I made this center piece for our table. It's nothing from outside this world, but Easter isn't that big of a deal anyway, is it? Like we care about the "resurrection" of Jesus Christ and this religious bullshit? (I wrote the quotation marks on resurrection because as far as I'm concerned, this is a fact that is yet to prove... and I mean scientific evidence!).
Haha, no no.... this is not going to be one of those atheist speeches of mine, but really the only thing that matters to us is to have an excuse to have free from work/school, am I right?
Soooo tell me!! What are your plans for Easter? I am working a bit, but I do have a free long weekend. Jonny is going to his family, I hope I can join some days. The cards are on the table!
