The village idiot at the Alibi Room with a straw stuck to her tongue piercing...the same piercing that chapped a corner of one of her lower molars not too long ago...Me and P at the beergarden at the Vic...Not drunk just yet....Same night that I twisted my ancle, only it hasn't happened yet...hehe
Indeed...VB is decent and Oz has the coolest beer ads in the entire world...Believe it:)
Kat, her 2 year old Alissandra, me, Zac and Caleb (with Ali's doll...) in Milton for the World Cup Final around 4 a.m. in the morning...long, cold and fun it was!
Tarna with the doll celebrating Italy's victory with the penalty shoot-out...Both with 'Viva Italy' written on their face...

Finally it appears you guys get some pictures! After trying numerous times this one shows me, Katya and Tarna celebrating that uni is over for the semester a couple of weeks ago... A kind of artsy pic that I took down by the Brisbane Powerhouse in New Farm on a really nice day...
Sunset from the cliffs at Kangaroo Point overlooking Victoria Bridge with the Citycat Ferry gliding past...
My flatmate and better half down under - Peter....There - u now know what he looks like:)
Me down by the river in New Farm, near the floating walkway....

A few of my favourite things...

List time... The top things about living in Oz (not necessarily in this prioritized order):

1. The climate and wonderful weather
2. The beautiful clean city and the fantastic river
3. The suburb in which I live - New Farm, it's got everything!
4. The people I've gotten to know and learned to love for being the wonderful friends they are
5. The lack of rain at any given day
6. The cheaper prices compared to home

Top things about living in Norway:

1. The beauty of winter with snow and bone-chilling cold weather when you can stay inside
2. The wonderful people in Bergen and Volda (and obviously the rest of Norway) that I am lucky enough to call my friends and family
3. The smallness of even 'big' cities - you can walk alone at 4 am downtown and feel quite safe
4. The fact that uni in Volda equals a degree almost completed in an area which I enjoy studying
5. The sound of rain pounding on the windows when I'm lying in bed trying to sleep
6. The gorgeous nature surrounding basically no matter where I am

So why this random need to list good things about my respective favourite countries in the world at the moment? I guess I'm trying to convince myself that I'm doing the right thing by coming back to Volda and finishing my bachelor in information and media instead of attempting to find a way to stay for another year in Brisbane... I really don't feel ready to leave, but at the same time changing things now is gonna be such a process and I don't know if I'm even able to afford it. Time and study-wise I'll be fine, but financially....Hell no! It's gonna be great to come home and see all of you guys again - I've missed you, but I've grown really attached to both the people and the place down here as well....Might have to come back yet again...Lol:)
