There are many of them here.
Really, I couldn't come up with a topic, and the song playing atm is "Rewriting Story", by Dirty old men.
For some reason I'm hooked on that song, and ViViD. Uh. ^^;


Sunao is off renewing his license.
I need to finish tidying/cleaning the apartment,
when he gets back we are going food-shopping~~
Because later tonight Nakamura-kun and (hopefully) his girlfriend
will be coming over for dinner~~ we are having oden.

And yes, I have no clue what this guy's name is,
thus "Nakamura-kun", using his last name ^^;
He works at the izakaya with Nao.

We had a fight yesterday btw.
I finally found my beloved tacos again, so I made that for dinner.
He doesn't think it's dinner, so he told me not to make it (for dinner) again.
Isn't tacos dinner? (;_;)

And it's not that he doesn't LIKE it, or thinks it's horrible.
He just doesn't think it's dinner. =(

In other news.
Tsuu-chan got married and moved to Okayama?!
Which is like far away. She'll be back in Fukuoka like twice a year (T_T)

We went to an izakaya with Kenji. Where we picked up Aiko-chan.
I'm not sure if Kenji knew Aiko already,
but we met her at the izakaya and she ended up coming with us to karaoke xD
It was fun. Though Kenji was waaaaaay drunk.
He called me Stephanie. <.<
So we called him Kentarou.


Gotta finish cleaning. Not even halfway yet. Dx

There is a cockroach, in here, somewhere. HELP.
I've never seen one of those things in here before, wtf D:
I bet it got in when that man kept the door open when checking the firealarms Dx

Heeeeelp! ;_;


It disappeared under the bed D: I don't dare trying to look for it Dx
There's not garbage or anything lying around here, I vacuum and everything all the time for those creeps not to get in =(

.. Is it weird that I remember my phonenumber in Japanese, but I have difficulties recalling it if I'm told to say it in Norwegian or English? xD

A few days ago I *finally* bought v-neu-'s album, "Neverland"!! =D It was released ages ago and since the release the vocalist and guitarist quit, they were on hiatus and now they are back with no less than 3 new members! So I finally bought it at the tiny v-kei store in Tenjin. They have a ton of indies artists' works too so I'm already in love.
However, having bought it I showed it to Yuusuke, who instantly went "Give it to me". xD
... In the end he felt sorry for me and let me keep it, but told me that I *have* to show him the store and that he is going to buy their new single when it's released... uhm.. the 23rd this month, I think!

In other news I've made some new friends and aquintances (^-^) I have yet to find someone who loves Nakasu's nightview as much as I do, but oh well. xD I don't really mind going there alone as long as all those creepy oji-sans stay faaar away from me.
The other day, as I walked down Nakasu's mainstreet, talking to a friend on the phone, this guy stopped me asking what club I work for. This man also got angry at me for not working there so he couldn't go to the club? ahaha.. I found it hilarious as I look/looked horrible, walking around in sneakers. (Yeah, none of the girls who actually work in Nakasu would even consider walking down the streets there wearing anything but princesslike diamondshoes.) However when I told Sunao he went "ASFASDMKLAS, IT'S DANGEROUS" on me, as did the friend I was on the phone with. ^^;;;

I found Norwegian "Ridder"-cheese at this supermarketthing close to Nakasu, too. I didn't buy it though. xD It was expenssssiiiiiveeee. They had some Danish cheese too! No Swedish stuff, ahaha. xD

(Sleeping beauty is so going to yell at me if/when he notices the pics on my mobile. xD He's sleeping right across the bed, with his feet where the pillow usually is, holding one pillow and hugging the blanket x' ) I'm not really tired yet as I slept from 4am till 2pm yesterday. Usually I sleep from 5am till noon ^^;;  )

I went to the izakaya where Sunao works, too. Everyone loves me, and his boss lied to me. >:
I was about to pay for my meal, and he told me Nao had already paid parts of it. When in fact Nao hadn't paid anything and I got the meal at half price. According to Nao he didn't do that when any of the other employees' girlfriends came around. (<.<) I'm also the only one being invited to dinner/drinking whenever. Haha. It's cute that his boss likes me. xD The other people working there are also really sweet. There is this guy who used to be a host who made my meal, apparently he'd been nervous making it, but it was the most beautifully cooked niratama I've ever seen/tasted. Afterwards he'd told everyone that he'd tried extra hard, and got yelled at for not doing it that nicely for all the customers. xD The oba-san who works there also looked after me, worrying whether I was getting my food or not. And she was impressed by my "manners". Hahaha. Since when did I ever have any?!! No,  but I tried ^^;;;


Oh! And if you can find it, you need to see DMC (the movie), Detroit Metal City! It's fabulous! Yuusuke, Mio-chan and I are hooked!
--- Wait, I found it for you! Click HERE And you can get whatever version pleases you. You can even get the cheap Hong Kong VCD. Not that the HK dvd is very expensive either. The Japanese versions don't come with English subtitles. At least not the one we watched.

Tenjin ^^  --- Store's wall with posters
   

argharghargh. I want to go to Chiba/Tokyo on Saturday and stay for a few days. =(
No money. (>_<)

Loud pop machine will have their last live with Ryota on Sunday, and after that their future is uncertain D:
From what I understand they won't be performing the songs they've made with Ryota any more (;_;)

ASODJASAASFKAS, I WANT TO GO.
And Yuu-chan is sick atm, down with a cold. Or eh, down? Busy as hell. xD
I hope he gets better before the lives (^^) And he's performing with QQ again, yey!
PLUS, the QQ live isn't a oneman live, it's some kinda rock.. whatever.. but BIG BITES is also performing =D
Ino Head Park will also be there =D ... and a couple of bands I don't know (^^;)
If Bull Zeichen 88 had been playing too, it would have been like.. perfect!
I mean, Ju-ken, Yuu-chan, Mine-kun, NATCHIN, Jun-ji!!!! 

the GazettE will be coming to Fukuoka too, if I'm not wrong?
Again, no money xD And probably sold out.

For once, just about all the drama I have to deal with, is the drama on tv. xD

And now, I'm watching GTO re-runs and on Monday nights I watch Yamapi's new drama.
On Thursdays there are two I want to watch, but I forgot last week~~ well, I was out with a friend anyways. ^^
On Saturday there is this drama adapted from manga/anime, with Katori Shingo and others. Sunao really wanted to watch it so I guess I'll give it a shot too. (^_^)

Thanks to Maria I got hooked on "Greek" too, it was like "oh my god.. I'm watching an american series, what?!"
Since I came here, I've been through all seasons of Sex and the City, Seinfeld and Scrubs, and the two seasons I'd missed of NCIS. xD Now it's Greek, Wildfire and Army Wives. xD

I need to practice more kanjis. ._.


The weather! What the heck. Apparently this kind of weather comes once in 5-7 years. But it's particularly bad this year?
It's been raining more than ever before, I don't remember how many deaths there have been in the neighbouring prefectures, but in Fukuoka they said 8, and two missing. Yamaguchi and whatnot is much worse. Plus in Fukuoka /city/ there have been several whirlwinds. What?!
The other day, when I went to Saga, the train I'd decided to go with had been cancelled, and tons of trains were delayed~~ I decided to go home early, before it got too bad for any trains to run at all. Of course, the train was delayed when going home too. And it was my first time changing trains midway all on my own. hahaha. xD

I hope the weather is the reason as to my mail being delayed/missing? <.< I hope I get it soon! D:

Meme. I just felt like doing it twice. haha. borrowed from facebook / nedyfay 

( Memeee... )

I suppose I should update.
I've mostly been keeping a diary, as in an actual diary, where I write however I like without publishing it for everyone to see. Plus I have a blogthing where I try to update in Japanese, just for fun. Nothing interesting anyways. Just about how last night's curry was, or how I fail at finding my way to Tenjin. 

Still, an update for those I live so far away from right now, the friends I miss.
And now, keep in mind, this is just some of my thoughts and impressions. "Only" being a tourist here is way different from what I've experienced so far.

( This might get a little personal so~~ )

The day we got married. <3

[ To those who don't understand Norwegian, I'm sorry. <.< ]

Åkai, så nå sitter jeg her, alene i den lille leiligheten vår midt i Fukuoka. En by med ca 1,5 millioner innbyggere. I fylket "Fukuoka" bor det om lag 2,5 millioner mennesker. Kamenashi Kazuya og diverse andre kjendiser sprader for øyeblikket over tv-skjermen, og slenger ifra seg godt innøvde replikker om vin, mens jeg plutselig, nå, etter litt over en måned i Japan fant jeg ut at jeg kanskje burde oppdatere her. Kanskje noen vil vite litt om hvordan jeg har det/har hatt det? Haha.
( Read more... loooong )


Shibuya, Tokyo   |   Fukuoka
  

Taken by yours truly. xP

I am leaving~~ (O_o)
In about 7 hours I'll be on my way, whaaat!

Surreal~~ ^^;

By this time tomorrow, I should have arrived at Narita.
Wow. xD

I hope everything will be alright о(ж＞▽＜)ｙ ☆

Take care, everyone ^^

More snow! xD
Chuu-chan and Mare, Thank you so much for Friday!!! ^^ Nya~~

Memetiem. xD Thanks to churikoato 


( Meme, tagged by Nicki )


A week left~~ O_o

Thank you for yesterday, Chuu-chan! And thank you to everyone who came! ^^
Kakashi and I are happy. xD Chuu gave him to me <3 Thank you!

Wow, only a few hours to go, and it will really be christmas. xD
Only, this year doesn't feel very christmassy. I suppose not having school, and not having seen Trondheim be all christmassy is a part of it. The only times I've been to town during December have been to get some vaccines, after which I quickly went home. Until today I'd barely even watched "The julekalender". Haha, I bought the dvd, so since yesterday I've seen 12-13 episodes. Yesterday I spent way too much money (x_X) But it was all necessary stuff. Why is food and medicine and... well, chocolate.. so expensive? (￣Д￣；；

Also, my mind is somewhere else as of late.
My thoughts are pretty much one-tracked. January 5th and onwards will be exciting. ≧(´▽｀)≦ Now it's, what, 13 days until I leave. I wonder what it will be like. A strange place filled with strangers, and a strange language. xD And, an apartment?! I mean, WHAT?! It's kind of unbelievable. I adore him ﾍ(ﾟ∀ﾟ*)ﾉ  Sunao, I love you! о(ж＞▽＜)ｙ ☆


I had such a great time with Chuu-chan and Baby on Friday! It was wonderful! Thank you!! Too bad we haven't been able to be like this for such a long time, but I hope things will get better! ('-^*)/

Sanza was nuts on Friday. xD Okay, off to watch christmasstuff!!
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!

~Waiting~

♪ Merry christmas, I love you ♪
I've got my christmas-soda, the yummy gingerbreadcookies, tiny oranges and chocolate! Christmas, I'm throwing away my healthiness for you~! Not to mention that I haven't been jogging or anything since the snow started falling and covered the paths I usually choose. But it will be fine, I think. xD  And Chuu is baking "lussekatter" for me! Haha~~ Lucky! ^^

This has been an eventful year in many ways, to say the least. The lows have been horrible, the ups have been amazing.
It's been a year filled with emotions of all kinds. From pure glee to frustrating amounts of anger and despair.  "2008 - An emotional rollercoaster." xD Let's hope the not so good things work out before the end of the year though. (>_<;) 

I've made some pretty big decicions lately. I won't flaunt it here though. Moreover, I doubt anyone would really approve. Haha. However, I figured that I'd like to give it a try, even though it may crash and burn, rather than giving up beforehand and getting stuck thinking "what if.." at a later occasion. But I do realise it is a foolishly daring and bold thing to do. ^^;

omg, I totally do NOT have anything to wear for the dinner at the hostel. crapcrapcrap (>_<)

11 days to go!
23 days to go!

This picture was taken a while ago, at the time of the first snowfall, but whatever. ^^

Okay, so I have managed to be on the phone for a good amount of hours in a row before, and I don't know whether it counts since it was skype, but wtf?! xD
It was interesting, to say the least. (^_^) Yeah so I slept for a number of hours, but thanks to me being female, right now it was not comfortable. (>_<;) ... I really love Skype. Until it got an error just now and closed down. Which made me sad. (T_T)


Yeah, I left this.. kinda.. for now. I haven't translated Natchin's stuff either. Guuuuuuuuh. I'm sorry.
I started a new job, I watch dramas, poke Chuu and Nao. Basically~~ It's been too cold and/or dark for me to get out and go jogging the last week and a half, but I've done fairly good either way. ^^;
Saaa~~ I suppose I get to speak enough these days anyways, so I have no need to pour it out all over LJ? ^^;

Oh Chuu, you know the Merry/Moi dix Mois/Megamasso thing? Megamasso are adorable (*_*) And I really like their music!

Now, showcasing awesome shoes, filled with "kakkoii" and asianness:

Thinking back as to how fast the last month has passed by, I get scared thinking about January. I don't want it to pass as quickly.
Really, I'm 20 years old now? It's absurd. What happened? xD 
And suddenly I realise, back when I was 15 he said he wished he could see what I'd be like as a 20 year old. I was having a rough time with myself and what he said kind of stuck with me. There's a lot more to it, but point is, I made it. xD Haha. 

Charlie, Chuu-chan~~ Thank you so much for giving me a wonderful birthday! There was someone missing, but you and the cake really made up for it. I'm afraid I didn't show you how much I really appreciated it, but I was really happy! (^_^) And the present + card were fantastic! (She gave me Fake?'s Tour of Losing Touch dvd, with Inoran!) It's right in line with Chacha's Air and Ju-ken's singing! And I was very happy to have you smiling and laughing with me, so thank you. But above all, the cake~~ xD You deserve a prize for it!

Furthermore.. 直くんありがとうございました！ずっとあたしの傍でいてねぇ♪(*^ ・^)ノ⌒☆
He sent me such an adorable letter (Albeit long overdue, haha), adorkable pictures and a great present. ☆-( ^-ﾟ)v
Next he just needs to take better care of himself~ And not try to drown his mobile again. xD
Let us hope that we, the three of us in any case, can celebrate my 21st together!

May Elin, thank you for joining me on Saturday! It was great fun, and I was glad to hang out with you andjust have fun. I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did, and that you survived on your way back home~ о(ж＞▽＜)ｙ ☆

Thank you to everyone who sent me messages, be it texts, facebook, msn, or other congratulations. o(〃＾▽＾〃)o

Chuu and I, waiting for her mum to pick us up after buying our Chinese food on my birthday. xD

For some reason, the title explains a lot of what the last weeks have been like. (And WOAH it is weird to be writing in English! Lately I've been communicating in Japanese and Norwegian only). You may think the title is about you only, my dear. But it isn't, you're not the only one. ^^;
Big changes have happened lately, some expected, and others just caught me as off-guard as one can. Some changes are good, others make me weep.

While I have found new goals and new things to look forward to, I know you are hurting, and that I am feeling so much better about everything may make you feel even worse. I am here for you whenever you need me to be, and sometimes when you don't. I am trying my best to support you, but sometimes I forget how difficult things are to you, way more so than my own challenges. If, and when, my words sound harsh to you, it is not because I am not trying, not because I don't want to, but because I slip and I simply do not understand. Sometimes it is incomprehensible to me, however in one way I am glad that I don't have the same experience, and that I don't understand. I feel a little caught inbetween. Bottom line, I adore you, I want to help you. I am sorry that there are times when I sort of lose my grip, and forget the surroundings. 
However, I will not let go of my own goals and hopes in order to be by your side. Realistically speaking I am not able to singlehandedly keep you up on your feet, nor am I able to stay here forever. You are probably aware of this already. I wish I could help you more than I do though.

Also, I really do try to hold back about this whenever we speak, but suddenly I have discovered a treasurechest filled with happiness and something which gives me the strength to go on, and also helps me in being by your side. I understand that it upsets you if I speak about it, but whenever you are happy you also want to convey it to others, right? I know I may be taking things too seriously now, and I might regret getting in too deep on a later occasion.. And now I don't know where I am going with this any more, hah.

Just disregard the rest,
I love you. (^_-)☆

I wish there were recipes for everything. xD I've started learning to cook things from scratch lately.

お誕生日！Natchinさん、お誕生日おめでとうございます！
もう、メールしたけどね。見ましたかな？　笑

うん、今日は、楽しんでね？！
それに、今までありがとうございます！ (^_^)




(I think I found the picture at the Shamu fansite, Yume no naka e)

I finally have internet again! A week of borrowing Chuu's laptop a little, sneaking onto unprotected networks when there was something I needed to check.. Troublesome. ^^;

I am totally out of balance at the moment, trying to get back on track. My body feels slightly dead, but at least my muscles don't ache that much any more. xD So of course, I'm going out jogging soon. Hah.

But yeah, I'm back now. Unless this router also dies.

http://www.myspace.com/loudpopmachine
I adore these guys, I hope they put up another of their songs soon. (*_*)
I didn't expect for them to sound that good. xD 

Oh Chuu, Natchin is watching someone's kitten now, although he's allergic to cats. xD

(Picture later, when I get back home again.)

お誕生日おめでとうございます、Inoran!!!♥♥♥

Gwah, today (well, the 29th) is Inoran's birthday!
One of my favourite artists, both as one of Luna Sea's guitarists, and as a solo-artist. He'll be holding a birthdaylive tonight, which I wish I could have attended. D:

Soon he will also be releasing a new album! (I don't remember the date, what?! It could be today for all I know ) Apocalypse.

I hope everyone who can attend the upcoming liveshows will enjoy them, and that Inoran has a lot of fun. (^_^)
I can't wait to hear more from you sweet Inoran! =D

Also, yesterday (28th) was v -neu-'s drummer, Rei's birthday!
I posted about it in my ameblo already, but happy birthday Rei (^^)

.. Picture when I get desperate enough to switch browser or they fix firefox.
Now, I upgraded firefox and things are working, it seems. I don't like firefox 3 much, but I suppose I will have to get used to it. ^^;

This picture of Inoran is taken from his myspace and cropped. *_* He's so adorable ^^
Also, if you go to his myspace or website, you can download two of his new songs AND the PV for free!

So for some reason LJ is being plain stupid, what?
I don't want to write the HTML myself now, give me back the fancy formatting tools, please.

I got a sudden attack of "DO NOT WANT", I don't know why, I was all cheery earlier. (v_V;)
I applied for a job, and will apply for some more over the weekend, just need to specify the applications and whatnot. I was out jogging, it was raining. Fairly pretty, however dangerous down the hills. It was slippery~.
I'm going to do something about my hair over the weekend I think. Maybe I'll dye the yellowish side brown and the other one black, and make the hairdresser cut it fancily? We'll see.

I got my ABC dvd and everything. The Popolo magazine I got... Johnny's Entertainment sex mag much? The shirtlessness and "sexyposes", especially by the youngest boys really scare me, whaaaaat? I just wanted to see cute pictures of Kanjani8 and NEWS. D: Well, Koyama's picture is adorable. Really, why are the Hey!Say!JUMP kids posing shirtless? They are like 13-17 years old or something. D:

I felt like posting a colourful one despite my mood.
Taken a week ago maybe.
.. or not, I will edit and post it when LJ stops being stupid.
