Fading (by Rihanna)

You say you love me
But they feel like words to me
Well this just ain't working
Stop thinking you can run over me
Drifting, settling off to a foreign place
If I can't see what's in front of me
It's a mystery
Well than apparently

Things just ain't the same
And I'm ready for change
Go on, be gone, bye bye, so long

Can't you see that you're fading, fading, fading
Fa a a ading away, away, away, away
I opened up my eyes
And I finally realized
Today, today, it's too late
You're fading away

Put a sock in it
Just stop running your mouth
Got my mind made up
I ain't coming back again
No way, no way, no way, no way

Cause I'm so fed up
Boy you got me messed up
If we hooking back up
Don't press your luck today, today
I'm blowing you away

Things just ain't the same
And I'm ready for change
Go on, be gone, ta ta, so long


Can't you see that you're fading, fading, fading
Fa a a ading away, away, away, away
I opened up my eyes
And I finally realized
Today, today, it's too late
You're fading away

Saw you turn into a ghost
Right in front of my eyes
Tell me what's a girl to do
When she's crying inside
I'm about to go insane
I'm jumping off this train
Whether wrong or right
I'll be gone by night


Can't you see that you're fading, fading, fading
Fa a a ading away, away, away, away
I opened up my eyes
And I finally realized
Today, today, it's too late
You're fading away

Blessed ♥

Even if things haven't exactly been how I've wanted them to be these last few months, I'm truly blessed. I just need to remember that when times get hard.

Tonight, for example, I saw a blog post on my sister's blog dedicated to me and my sweet-tooth :p I love Smash! (salty corn kernels (according to Google translate :p ) covered in chocolate) and my sister knows this very well. Probably because whenever I visit them, I can eat an entire bag all by myself :p Anyway, she's going to make this the next time I go there:

Smash!-cake :O It just has to be amazing!! :D

I love you so much, sis! Even if we're far apart, you're always in my heart. Don't know what I'd do without you.

Barcelona en mi corazón

Last night I got back from an awesome trip to Barcelona! We arrived midday Thursday, and by evening I was already in love with the city. The whole beach-city combination is really great and you feel that they have everything there. The weather was amazing the entire week, and that was a welcome change from the snow that came before we left Oslo.

Instead of boring you with all the details, I'll show you some pictures. Chances are, I'm going to edit this post at a later point, seeing as I only have my pictures. I didn't take as many pictures as the others, so I'll probably put some of them on here when I get them :)

Camp Nou < 3 

La Pedrera 

Plaça Catalunya 

The beautiful Barceloneta beach

La Sagrada Familia 

Parc Güell 

Tibidabo Amusement park 

Amazing view from Tibidabo 

Tapas time 

Lunch menu in El Born 

Wouldn't mind paying only 6,45€ for Cesc Fabregas ;) 

Vamos a Barcelona!

When I wake up tomorrow, I'll get ready, eat breakfast, finish packing and leave for the airport. From there I'll take the plane and travel to Barcelona!

La Sagrada Familia is only one of the many things I'll see

So for the next week I won't have internet connection, and that will definitely be weird for me :p Not quite used to that. But I'll blog when I get back from my trip with the girls. 

Hope you'll all have a great week and weekend when you get to Friday!

Lose my mind - The Wanted

They say that time 

Heals everything

But they don't know you 

And the scars you bring

Cos you left a jagged hole

And I can't stand it anymore

If heartache was a physical pain I could face, I could face it

But you're hurting me from inside of my head, I can't take it, I can't take it

I'm gonna lose my mind

I'm gonna lose my mind

I'd erase my thoughts

If only I knew how

Fill my head with white noise

If it would drown you out, kill the sound

If heartache was a physical pain I could face, I could face it

But you're hurting me from inside of my head, I can't take it, I can't take it

I'm gonna lose my mind

I'm gonna lose my mind

And I'd rather be crazy, I'd rather go insane

Than having you stalk my every thought

Then having you here inside my heart

If heartache was a physical pain I could face, I could face it

But you're hurting me from inside of my head, I can't take it, I can't take it

I'm gonna lose my mind

I'm gonna lose my mind

Quote of the day

Relationships are like glass. Sometimes it's better to leave them broken, than hurt yourself trying to put them back together.

Thank God for grandparents

When I woke up yesterday morning, I had practically no voice. During the day at school, I managed to speak a bit, but I really didn't sound like myself :p

Today, however, I have no voice what so ever! If I try really hard, I can get out a whisper. Very nice, if I can say so myself. Turns out I have a throat infection. Apparently a bit of a bad one too. So the next three days will be spent (quietly) at my grandparents house, more specifically, in bed or on the sofa. I've already had a good start and been here since approximately 10.30 am ;) What would I do without my family?

Sundays < 3

It's halftime in the Barcelona - Valencia game, so I thought I'd take the time to show you what I've been doing today :)

After visiting my grandmother on my dad's side, my dad made goulash for dinner, while mom and I were making Rocky Road Brownies. Yum. Then we went to my grandparents to eat fastelavnsboller. (Sorry. I have no idea what that is in English :p ) More yum. I didn't take any pictures myself, so all pictures are from Google.

In conclusion I can say this: there's been a lot of eating today :p
Hope you've all had a great weekend and are ready for a new week.

United in Europa League

I have to admit it. It doesn't happen often, but I couldn't really get into the football spirit yesterday. It's just not quite right watching Manchester United in Europa League. They're supposed to be in Champions League. That's that.

But there's a first time for everything, and it was an okay game. Most importantly, they got the away goals they wanted. This way they can hopefully (at least should) have an easier game next Thursday in the return leg at Old Trafford and go through to the next round. Although football's football, the ball is round and anything can happen. That's kind of the beauty of the game.

Luckily, I had a better time on Tuesday, when Barcelona went to Germany and met Bayern Leverkusen. The first half was boring. I have no problem admitting that. But, the second half. Way more fun. And Barcelona got three goals to take back to Camp Nou in March. Good boys :)

For the sake of myself, and the respect I have for how I think they usually play, I'm not gonna write anything about the Arsenal game on Wednesday. I just can't manage.

Have a good day and weekend guys. I'm going to Snowboard World Championships after school today, and I honestly can not wait till this class finishes! Blah is all I have to say.

Happy mothers-day mama!

This was my mom while I was growing up. Just throw in my two siblings and her going to school during the day and work during night. Sooo...

Takk for alt mamma!

Evig glad i deg!

Mama < 3

My mom is the best in the world!
Since I couldn't afford the ticket so I could go see my sister, brother-in-law and nephews, my mom bought the ticket for me. This way I can finally go see them again, and also spend some time with my parents.

I really have the best parents I could ever have imagined. I love them both so much!

Wishing everyone a great weekend! :D

(The headline was supposed to be "Love em'. Miss 'em <3 ", but for some reason it won't show...)

Unfortunately I only have older pictures of my nephews, but they're just as lovely today. 

Been trying to go visit them, but the economy is not what it should be, so I have to wait a while. But they're always in my heart, and for now that just has to do. 

The oldest

The youngest

I feel blessed <3 

Stuttering by Fefe Dobson

There's a whole lotta things that I will forgive
But I just can't take a liar
I was by your side till the very end
Till you pushed me in the fire

I tried to believe you, but something is wrong
You won't look me in the eyes, tell me what's going on

It's you and me against the world
That's what you said, that's what you said
If you can't be honest with me
Then I'm afraid this is the end

Hurry up, hurry up
If you ever really cared about me
Tell the truth, give it up
You sound guilty cos you're stuttering

Oh oh oh oh oh, ey ey ey ey ey, oh oh oh oh whoa
Yeah you're stuttering
Oh oh oh oh oh, ey ey ey ey ey, oh oh oh oh whoa
Yeah you're stuttering

Now the seconds turn into minutes now
But you won't give me an answer
You can tell me this, you can tell me that
But don't say you don't remember

Cos I know you better than you know yourself
So don't say I'm crazy, I know very well

It's you and me against the world
That's what you said, that's what you said
If you can't be honest with me
Then I'm afraid this is the end

Hurry up, hurry up
If you ever really cared about me
Tell the truth, give it up
You sound guilty cos you're stuttering

Oh oh oh oh oh, ey ey ey ey ey, oh oh oh oh whoa
Yeah you're stuttering
Oh oh oh oh oh, ey ey ey ey ey, oh oh oh oh whoa
Yeah you're stuttering

I-I-I don't wanna hear you're sorry now
The best thing you can do for me is just spit it out
I-I-I don't wanna hear you're sorry now
Stop, stop stuttering your words, it's only making you look worse

Hurry up, hurry up
If you ever really cared about me
Tell the truth, give it up
You sound guilty cos you're stuttering

Oh oh oh oh oh, ey ey ey ey ey, oh oh oh oh whoa
Yeah you're stuttering
Oh oh oh oh oh, ey ey ey ey ey, oh oh oh oh whoa
Yeah you're stuttering

Oh oh oh oh oh, ey ey ey ey ey, oh oh oh oh whoa
(Keep on stuttering yeah you're stuttering)
Oh oh oh oh oh, ey ey ey ey ey, oh oh oh oh whoa
(Keep in stuttering, yeah you're stuttering)

Pretty awesome :p

Yesterday is history.

Tomorrow is a mystery.

But today is a gift.

That's why we call it the present.
