New-Norwegian, J.S.Welhaven, and other bloody boring things.
Posted Feb 19, 2004
I'm tired. I've got a six hour test tomorrow. It's a New-Norwegian test. It's eight o' clock, and I'm seriously considering going to bed.A really stupid thing is having a six hour test, and then ONE bloody hour of French at the end of the day. I think I've got a headache. "Girl" told me that she was tired today too. She said she gets sudden mood swings, and starts crying all the time. I wish I could help her, but I know she doesn't want me to interfere. I probably could help her too... Damn it. I'm too tired to do anything constructive. I'm supposed to be reading for the test tomorrow, but I can't be effed. It's a good thing we get to bring our books tomorrow. It's a VERY good thing that I'm capable of BSing most teachers. I do hope our Norwegian/New-Norwegian/Lit. teacher will accept whatever I deliver tomorrow. I like that teacher. He's funny. He's obsessed with football too, so completely out of his natural habitat in a class full of lazy musicians. I think I'm too lazy to do any work tonight. I'll just go to bed, which is probably for the best, and hope I write better than this tomorrow, otherwise, I'm in trouble. My average might even drop...

My second entry today.
Posted Jan 22, 2004
Why, why, why do people think that I'm REMOTELY interested in getting horribly ugly piccies of Øtzi the prehistoric ice-man, into my hotmail account, with a 1337 and not-at-all-to-the-point text explaining how I will be haunted for the rest of my (short) life by some horribly ugly girl(currently impersonating Øtzi) with a knife if I don't send this chain mail to at least 3960 other people. WHY do people think that if they just forward this mail to everyone they know, some poor kid with an extra nipple grown onto their forehead will be allowed their costly plastic surgery. Why do people even THINK that those mails can be tracked? Are they not aware of how much cluttering this junk makes? How many times haven't I been forced to spend my time going through my entire inbox deleting loads of 
that I don't even want to have there, simply because there's no more room on my hotmail account
???
Don't people also realize that this is an easy way for spambots to get hold of thousands of authentic email adresses? Don't people realize that when it says: "If you forward this to 10 others, your life will be unwholesomely nice, and someone are likely to give you a box of sweets tomorrow", it really means "if you forward this to 10 others, you are likely to annoy the out of 10 people, possibly your friends (or at least they USED to be your friends, until you started sending chain mail to each other)"....
WHY, WHY, WHY??? How bloody thick can you get??? Who takes ANY pleasure in sending off, or forwarding horrible morbid chain mails?
Right, I'm agitated, but still... WHY???

Gig-hype
Posted Jan 22, 2004
Right, I've just gotten back (actually, no I got back twelve hours ago, but I was too tired to write anything then) from an excellent gig. I'm guessing you all want to know how a DT gig is (if you do not, kindly leave this thread, do not eff me with stupid pedantic comments like "actually, I didn't want to know any of this"). Anyway, the gig went to lasted from 19:30 to 23:30, the band played from about 20:00, for those of you unable, or unwilling, more like to do maths, this equals three and a half hours of playing, minus a fifteen minute intermission. Very little of this time went into crowd-teasing. The singer (James LaBrie), spoke to us for about three minutes, saying how nice it was to be back in Oslo, and then the rest of the time was filled with continous playing, of Looooooooong songs (some lasting for as long as 25minutes). The whole gig was rather relaxed, the audience consisted largely of grown-ups between the age of 20 and 30, though some youngsters were to be spotted around the place. Anyway, the age of the audience meant that there was very little pushing, and contributed to making the whole event rather nice and peaceful. The band were professionals, but they didn't do much to keep the crowd interested, they pretty much seemed to go about their business, ocasionally tossing a pick or a drumstick to the excited audience. All the songs were played with due professionality, though there WERE some interesting instrumental mishaps (Jordan Rudess managed to miss the rhythm completely on a song, confirming everything we ever hear about piano players)... All in all, though, the gig was good, interesting and above all, fun to be at.
Now, I've got to go wash my new DT sweater, to get rid of the smell of cigarettes that it aquired last night.

And counting...
Posted Jan 14, 2004
I have now only got five hours and sixteen minutes left of my life as a youngster... Pretty soon, the world will have passed eighteen times around the sun since the time of my birth...
If I was living in Australia, I would allready be eighteen, because of the time-difference... Think of that, eh?
Anyway, this has inspired me into pondering about the special significance this day will have to me...
Officially, I will now be allowed/forced to drink, get a driver's license, smoke, pay taxes, pay extra high fares on the bus/train .
Since I don't do any of the above, for various reasons (I get student discounts on the train and I have a student card at the bus, in case you were wondering), It doesn't really matter too much. Tomorrow won't change my reality noticeably, I'll still have to take the same tests and deliver the same tasks as everyone else. I'm generally still the same person on the fifteenth of January as I was on the fourteenth.
On the plus side, though, I will get loads of cake and presents in the days to come... So all in all, celebrating an arbitrary date with no real significance whatsoever isn't all too bad. Even though the day in itself is pointless...
