W left. I miss him. And I'm bored today. It's nice! our work days are pretty tough right now, so whenever I have a day off, I do absolutely nothing, and I love it that way! but I'm still looking forward to go out snowboarding!

christmas and that stuff...

Nothing new. all is still work and chilling with W... and dreaming about travelling as always... to get money. and go on a train...

maybe to Paris... or London.. or Wienna... *sob*

didn't really celebrate christmas this year... me and the prince was working. and when we got home we ate rice pudding. W and me watched movies, and the prince went out drinking with some colleagues..
and I talked to my dad. this is the first year I'm not celebrating christmas with my parents.
it's fine... just miss the food and nostalgic feel about it :) and I'm not really religious in any way, so...

W is leaving wednesday. And the prince and I will get more work now, so... there won't really be much to write about until I get the money to go snowboarding..

peace <3

Once and now.

I once knew Joy. She was amazing and filled up most of my life.
But then she got a boyfriend. the rest is well-known history and a bunch load of lame, stupid clichés...

I can't cry over her anymore, cause I'm all dried-out.
I can't tell her things anymore, cause she doesn't want to know me.
I can't see her anymore, cause she doesn't want to know of me.

We dreamed together. Now, dreaming of her only brings bitterness.
We laughed together. Now, laughing is still not the same.
We cried together. Now, I won't cry anymore!

My dream is to get a boat and sail all over the world. and to become a tattoo-artist and live of my artwork. I also wanna go and help people as a nurse.
And as always, I wanna see as much of the world as possible!

I don't really care what sacrifices I make, cause I know it'll be worth it in the end!

Bill, I owe you so much! <3

And I hope Joy is happy, even though I'm no longer part of it, and that this fact will always burn in my chest.
thanks for the past 15 years together. I couldn't have made it whithout you!

Now, I will try to only look forwards! :3

Also just got off the phone with my mum. she's very happy about me cutting off my dreads... *sob*

Chilling with W

I did absolutely NOTHING the past few days! <3
W came tuesday night and Anne helped me fetch him. oh... and during the day we had a fire drill. I died... fail...
been of work since. I have to work again sunday and again in the christmas days. that's it!

I got my hair cut today. at a hairdresser! havn't been to one of those for 7 years.. remember why! I hate letting people cut my hair in a way I'm pretty much NOT satisfied with, and then PAY for it??..
oh well.. It'll grow back out. and after christmas I'm going to colour it pale blonde, almost white. man, it'll be expensive.. but as soon as I'm done working at the hotel, I wanna get some turqouise color in it. Gonna be sweet <3

I' thinking just to apply this in the hairtips. Otherwise it'll be too much I think...
Hmm... we ate pizza today. and now, we're watcing anime (pokemon and bleach) and south park.

later <3

reasons to miss denmark...


Meaning 'velcome home'.. made by jolle when I came back from palestine <3

because there is a certain cozy feeling in the house...

Nice people

nice, sun-tanned punks

W <3


..and the city
 Everything is going okay up here north. we had a 'Kick off' party yesterday, to celebrate the beginning of the winter-skiing season. there was food, drinks, bowling, swimming and nice colleagues <3
really needed that night after some hard work days and 3 sleepless nights.. looks like tonight will be the same, but luckyli W is coming tomorrow.. then I can sleep tightly again!
I'd wish I had a good pic of Jonas and Anja.. miss 'em really much...
huh... should try to go back to sleep... :3

how to make money?.. and time...

There is this folk school on Zanzibar I really really want to go to...
It's 4 months long, and has all the great classes! and you get to go on a safari for two weeks, sleep with the native villages AND you get a diving certificate! *LOVE*

but... how am I going to make 60.000 kr.??
And I still want to:
  • go to Australia for a year
  • go roadtripping in the USA for 3 months with Anja
  • go back to Palestine with W this summer
  • open up a bookcafe in dk
  • go to London with my sister
  • move to Berlin with Anja 
  • go to Obscene Extreme in the Czech Republic this summer
  • go on interrail
  • become a tattoo artist
  • get a houseboat
Ah, gee... and with all that, I also need to find 4 years to go to nurse school...
I know... Luxcurious problem... At least the school is free in dk...

oh, why did I have to think about that stupid folk school again? I was planning on going after college, but then reality hit me, and I was no way near having the money for it... and then I met W... and forgot about it/gave up... but now I really wanna go again... geez.. It's to early for me, to feel that my life is too short.. I'm still only 21 gawdammit!

But even if I was able to get the money for all of this, how am I supposed to find the time for it?
well, at least I have until May here in Norway to think about it... *sob*

in the perfect world...


Because I can! XD

My (boring) dailylife...

I told myself to go to bed early today... but what the heck... I'm off work tomorrow!
I realised that I don't really have so much to write about up here... normally I'm too busy to write anything, but here, I suddenly have a normal dailylife routine again! wtf? Haven't had one of those since... since school!
shiit....

08:30 - alarm bipping.
08:31 - wtf?.... *dream about W dissapears* falling out of bed and putting the bloody alarm on snooze. swearingly crawling back to bed.
08:41 - just 5 more minutes...
08:51 - just 5 more minutes...
09:01 - jus... ive.. inutes... mo...
09:11 - ju....ve.....inu....m...
09:21 - *blob*
09:31 - WHAT? where am I? who am I? what time is it? am I late... ... ! ... oh... it's sunday.. first have to meet at 11. makes a new alarm.
09:45 - final alarm. dammit.... why did I go to bed at 3 am??... *sigh*
09:49 - taking a shower, wishing that some friendly christmas spirits made some pancakes for breakfast. Or at least gave us some food to get a good breakfast.
09:56 - negative. no food. just oatmeal again. almost panics when realising that the package almost is empty.
09:57 - being interrupted by a loud snore and mumble from my the prince. rolling my eyes and putting over water for coffee.
09:58 - turning on computer.
10:05 - remembering the sleeping prince and the coffee. try to wake him, makes oatmeal, coffee and heads back fo the computer. FB <3
10:15 - wakes the prince again.
10:35 - gets dressed, gets annoyed that the prince takes a shower few minutes before we normally leave for work so I can't brush my teeth right away.
10:45 - stomping of to work, annoyed at the prince for being slow.
10:47 - admiring the newfallen snow and lighten up
10:52 - arriving at work. hurrying to change into uncomfortable, smelly working clothes.
11:01 - work begins with a fake smile and a sob... *sob*
12:35 - crappy lunch. bad memory of bacon in the vegetables this friday, makes me only eat bread with butter. (I spend all saturday with a REALLY bad stomach, complaining over the unvilling intake of meat.. yuk..)
18:32 - gets off, because I'm so amazing! (ok, not quite true.. complained so much about my stomach, so that the bosses finally felt sorry for me and let me go...) saying goodbye and leaves the office for changing.
18:33 - going back to the office to check out next week work schedule.
18:34 - changing and going outside and starts walking home.
18:44 - realises I didn't fill out my time schedule, and walks all the way back to the office.
18:47 - leaving office.
18:49 - re-entering the office to tell the boss, that I want to work extra during the next week. kissing by boss' ass.
19:02 - finally home! loving my boss for being so friendly and smiling! goes straight for the coputer to watch pokemon episodes.
19:39 - makes food.
19:51 - talks with W over skype <3
20:39 - finishes talking with W.. going back to watching pokemon and doing other braindead stuff online (FB...)

and here I am now... 23:41...

wow... My life sucks right now.. but at least I made 750 nkr AFTER tax! muha..
damn, I hate having a life, that evolves aroung money... Need to think back on the good times and getting excited about the upcoming..
Me and Jolle... at the kill-town festival in Copenhagen. it was the best weekend for several years!

good times in Hamburg

beer and lovely colleagues!

I actually ended up getting beer yesterday!
The prince and I, were tugged in for the night when some of our wonderfull colleagues came knocking on our door, asking if we wanted to meet, drink and chat.
we did. The prince (also known as JD) got VERY drunk. it was fun! I really like this place and theese people! We only had a bottle of captain morgan, but one of the other girls had some beer that she shared. <3 LOVE <3
we made some great toasts: "housekeeping motherfuckeeeeer!!"
awesome! But I realized that actually none of our colleagues are norwedian! only swedish and german... geez, I'll never learn norwedian... but I still got until May so hopefully I'll pick up something?..

Time here really flies. still miss my boyfriend and some of my friends back in dk.. But I feel like I've finally moved on, and pushed myself out of my comfort-zone, and it's wonderfull!
I'm cutting my hair soon.

Right now, I'm trying to write a little bit.. I also wanna draw, but don't got the paper...
hopefully I'll soon get the money for this cutiepie:
better get to bed soon. have another day as cindarella ahead of me :)

a fairytale

once upon a time in this time we are in right now, there is a prince. now, this prince has a straightening iron. This item makes him to a very strange, even odd, prince. I would call it a princess. but if I call the prince for princess, he gets all mad!
this is a picture of the socalled item
the prince and I are friends, and we work together. it's a good job, even thoug it's though sometimes. we're kinda like cindarella. but instead of the evil stead-mom, there's rich, friendly tourists.
the hard-earned money that the prince makes from being cindarella, goes to cloning trolls.
yes. trolls. we are, after all, in Norway - the land of trolls!
my hard-earned money will probably be used to travel some more. I'm thinking a lot about Hawaii for a couple of weeks for surfing... or just London for doing nothing. and I owe my little-sis a trip to London anyway.
the prince and I, are currently of work for the weekend. it's nice. we'll probably watch a lot of anime etc.
my fav for the moment, is Avatar - the last airbender. I really enjoy Bleach and Naruto too, but it takes so long for the plot to move on.... the prince is watching naruto.
so for now, the princess... uhm, prince and I, are living happily together. we propably wont continue to do so, but the moment now is what counts!

the end

pizza friday and beer dreaming

Nice day. I like my bosses.
one of them have a smiley piercing and long fake nails with green glitter. I like her a lot. also, she is very absent-mindet in a good way. her head flying around all the time.
this is where I work


talked with my boyfriend for an hour over skype. I really adore that thing! and I still miss him, but I think time will fly. and we should be able to pull through this! he got me some new markers! :)
gawd. cannot believe it's friday allready. should be out partying but alcohol is freaking expensive here! and I also really just enjoy sitting in the couch with my danish friend, JD, and watching bad anime, eating crisps and pizza. oh yer! this is life I tell ya! even though I really would love a beer... Newcastle brown ale... <3

I hope I can soon get the money for the snowboard gear. I really wanna go out, before we get flooded with tourists..

feel like listening to new age... and arabic folk music!

the snow

this place is nice.. and quiet...
I think I'll have some coffee and bread with avocado...

norway!

so, yer. need to remember that I have a blog now... :)

okay. I came safely through the airport and all. ended up spending almost 100 euroes in Istanbul in 16 hours.. stupid time. I'll never figure time out! the clock in palestine and denmark is the same, but turkey IN THE MIDDLE OF THOSE TWO COUNTRIES is an hour ahead? didn't realise that, before I missed my airport bus and needed to take a taxi all the way.... dammit.
but whatever. met a nice canadian girl at the hostel. and made it back to dk, where one of my friends invited me out for food. It was SO great! a lovely place with the best vegan/vegetarian buffet.
got some cold beers. *orgasm*
before taking the train the last step of the way home, I also met another friend. we talked a lot. missed that guy! so got another beer, and then went the last distance....

I didn't really enhoy being back home... sure, it was really great seing my boyfriend etc again, but not enough anymore... the same people, the same problems, the same fight and the same frustrations...

so now I'm in Norway! meeting new people and working at a ski resort. it's nice but cold. and I really miss palestine... but for now I need the money and another break from dk. so my next goal is to learn how to snowboard! and stop missing my boyfriend so much...

I love life!

daily life in Palestine

Hi
I'm May! 21 years old from Denmark and currently based in Palestine as a peace activist. 
Needless to say, that I'm here to help the palestinians fight of the illegal occupation from Israel? There's a lot to do here. when I  first arrived a couple of weeks ago, I thought I would spend most of my time picking olives and demonstrate.
And yes. that is actually what I have been during up until now. that, and also worrying like hell about the soldiers and settlers.
The soldiers I can handle. they have given me the worst treatment they could manage so far; pepperspray, teargas, soundbombs, blindfold, handcuffs and 10 hours under arrest. for participating in a peacefull demonstration against the illeagal settlement of Kemi Zur.


 It's okay. I don't mind them arresting me, if it means that they will arrest one less palestinian instead.
They face a heck of a lot longer time behind bars, than us. the worst thing the soldiers can do to me, is to detain me for 3 days and then deport me. the palestinians face prison for a looong period of time. innocent or not. old or young.


But the thing here, that worries me the most, is the settlers. they're here based on illeagal reasons. And if the army and internationals is not around, they can do whatever they want: trash palestinian houses, beat up people, threaten them and burn of their fields so their income is lost for a year.
If the interntionals is around, they tend to keep their distance and 'just' throwing some rock after us.
Nothing beats a youngster throwing rocks after you, and telling you to piss of. charming little monsters, eh?


I'm sorta happy here, I'd say. Life here has another sence of meaning, compared to DK.
But of course, I miss my friends and my boyfriend, W. Hope that the next time I return, he'll be with me.


two weeks left in this beatiful country. I'll miss the mosks and loud prayers called out over the cities several times a day. I'll miss the sun. the friendly people and the food! And the struggle. not to mention my activist family here. love to them all!
