2.  Next up is my dear dear friend Rebecca French who blogs over at The Veritable Shiz which showcases here amazing illustrations. you all definitely need to see them.

A nice suprise turns a meh day good!

Today has been a bit up and down, it started off good as my weight was down (it is an on going struggle) and i felt pretty good, i did some shopping, cleaned the apartment and studied some Norwegian. Then i got an email which totally shattered my mood, it was yet another rejection from a job. I try not to let it reflect in my blog too often but it can be really hard looking for work here, especially if your like me and get a bit embarrassed speaking the language to natives... but anyway there i was sitting at the computer moping like an idiot, when in walks my lovely boyfriend with a package in his hands...a package for meeee!




It was my prizes from sarah at thebearanecessities giveaway!



That brightened me up no end i can tell you that! I am absolutely in love with these pieces especially the bracelet which i have been wearing ever since!
also check out my awesome nail polish -post coming soon!


The necklace seemed a bit long at first but i think it will be prefect with a nice summer dress. ( i will post pictures once i can be bothered to find a dress to wear and persuade the bf to take lots of pictures of me until i find at least one i like)


The ring fits looks actually a lot nicer than i thought it would on me.


I am so happy i won something!! wahey for winning!!!!!

Do you want to win something??? if that answer is yes then don't forget to check out and enter my GIVEAWAY!!!

I'm Home!

Yes i am finally back in my beloved Bergen!

To be honest with you, i have been back for a couple of days now and things have been nice and busy, On Saturday TP and I went for dinner with his Sister and her partner Jan. We went to this lovely Italian place called Stragiottis, i decided not to take photos seeing as i have only met his sister twice and didn't want to let her know i am one of those weird 'takes photos of their food before they eat it' kind of people. After dinner TP and I made our way over to the cinema to see.......


HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS part 2

I was soo excited, mainly because i grew up reading the books and just recently re read the last book and partially because I have a tumblr and it has been HP obsessed recently. In the end i quite enjoyed the film and i have to admit i did cry on multiple occasions during but i also felt a bit frustrated when they unnecessarily changed parts which didn't really contribute to the overall plot anyway.

After HP7 we went for a quick drink in a bar nearby to the cinema called Biskopen (The Bishop) which was lovely especially as when we sat downstairs we discovered a beautiful friendly cat sleeping on one of the sofas my night was made!



In other news... I won something!!! i never ever win anything and just before i left for Norway i discover a twitter message from Sarah Elisabeth over at thebearanecessities telling me i had won her giveaway yaaay!!! so when that arrives in the post i will be sure to take some snazzy photos of myself wearing them.

Untill then i have to go have my teeth poked and prodded at the dentist boo :(
