I got it for like... 30 NOK from Lindex LOL!!! Love it!!

I realized that I've written a lot about being in CLUB SEGA, but never posted a picture of it... So, for those who wonder, this is how it looks from the outside! Here I am holding a lot of mini plushies we won!

 

After this we went to Ootoya… Since I only had a few days left in Japan and I wanted to eat more from Ootoya, deciding where to go wasn’t hard.

What I ordered!

Like the other times I was there, the food was really good! You will also get a lot of food for almost nothing. I really, really recommend you to go there if you get the chance- it’s sooo delicious AND cheap! I really don’t have anything to complain about when it comes to Ootoya!

While I was in Japan, the video game Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 was being released. I didn't have the chance to try it, and seeing all these posters really didn't do anything better... I'ts crazy! I wonder how much placing ONE of these ads cost... Only in this picture you can see SIX of those.

I wanted to do some shopping this day, so we went to Shibuya 109 first since it was nearby!

In front of Shibuya 109 that day...

I didn’t really have so much time, so I ended up buying a LOT of things I shouldn’t have bought… I didn’t even try on the clothes before buying them, that’s probably one of the dumbest thing to not do. I hate spontaneous shopping, I’m always feeling sooo bad afterwards… The only thing I didn’t feel bad for buying was presents to my friends… LOL. I always feel good when I buy presents!

Staff people giving excellent service isn’t exactly doing anything better, I feel this guilt if I don’t buy anything – I feel it’s kind of rude for taking their time without leaving any money to the shop. LOL, yes, I know I’m being really stupid now. :’D It’s not like they’re earning less if I don’t buy, I know… I don’t know why I feel this way. I just… don’t like to bother people, even if it’s their work to help customers.

Anyways, there was a lottery going on in the mall – for every 3.000 JPY you spent in a store, you got a chance in their lottery!

I had bought stuff for over 27.000 JPY that day, none of my receipts were under 3.000. It gave me 9 chances in their lottery!

AAAAAAAAaaaand, I won a lot of stuff! Toothbrushes, scrunchies and such. Most of it was useless, but entering was fun!

lol shopping bags hahaha

After shopping in Shibuya109, we went over to 109MEN’S. Eivind had made a wishlist and since he is a good friend of us, we wanted to help him to get the stuff he wanted!

I think Japanese shop staff are extremely funny and talkative, we had a few funny «conversations» with the Buffalo Bobs shop staff.

While Marcus was in the dressing room, one of the shop staff tried to say something to me in Japanese, but he quickly understood that I didn’t understand anything. He asked me if I was from Philippine, told me that I looked Japanese, asked me where I was from – but his English was so limited and it was sooo awkward hahaha. The whole conversation was about…basically saying a few words and waving with arms hahahah. It’s cool that they’re trying to hold a conversation at all!

Marcus and I were speaking Swedish/Norwegian to each other, another one of the shop staff commented that I spoke good English in Japanese. And well, back then I had no idea about what he said (Marcus translated for me later), but Marcus replied and said that we weren’t speaking English and I didn’t understand Japanese, in Japanese. He looked surprised, I guess it must have been confusing! He explained that I had «Japanese face», and apologized for speaking in English to Marcus earlier. He was assuming that Marcus didn’t speak Japanese and that I did, when the truth is that it’s completely opposite! LOL!! I guess it must have been weird for him!

When we were done in 109MEN’S we took the train to Shinjuku.

Right outside Shinjuku station we could see these pretty lights! Such a Christmas-ish feeling, even though it was in November!

Went in to Studio ALTA, and I did some more serious shopping there. I wish I shopped here earlier, because I wish I had more money I could spend there. There was a lot of brand stores I haven’t heard about before that had a lot of cool clothes which was almost half the price of the clothes in Shibuya 109 – the only difference is well… they don’t necessarily have any super known brand label on them – which I don’t mind at all.

Me in front of Studio ALTA's entrance.

A random picture of Shinjuku

Marcus and I was really tired from all the shopping, so we wanted to find some place to sit and rest. Aaaaaand, that means karaoke time!!! Marcus insisted to buy something to snack on from Mister Donut so we first went there…

...and enjoyed the donuts while singing karaoke! WHEN I WAS THIRTEEN I HAD MY FIRST LOVE.

When our time was over, we didn’t feel ready to go home yet. Soooooooooooooo we went back to CLUB SEGA because we knew we probably won’t have any time later to play some darts together again. This day was… well, kind of a «do-all-the-things-we-should-do-before-I-leave-Japan»-day.

I'm not good in darts, but I must say I'm not that bad! Marcus is the one who taught me, after all!

Uhm, we took one more purikura set!

hahaha lol, we took even more purikura!!! IF YOU HAVEN’T BEEN IN A LONG DISTANCE RELATIONSHIP BEFORE, YOU WILL PROBABLY NOT UNDERSTAND THE VALUE OF HAVING THESE KIND OF PICTURES ;_; I simply can’t get enough of them.

We were hungry but a lot of places were closed… But Marcus knew a place called Nakau and we went there.

I have a really hot boyfriend :)

I had katsu-curry and salad~

The food was really good and extremely cheap here… I would do a lot to eat this again! I love Japanese curry!

I’ve been thinking, it seems like ALL food in Japan is cheap. It might have to do something about the ridiculous Norwegian prices I’m used to? I wonder what people around the world think is considering as «cheap» for this kind of food.

In the end of the day I realized that my feet were hurting so much… We decided to take a cab home. We had walked around a lot this day!

LOL I couldn’t come up with a better blog title for this entry haha. YUM YUM RAMEN AND DOG TREATS!!! Hahahahaha!!!

Anyways, I’m in a mood for writing (read: the other option was to do school stuff…) so excuse me for writing a lot of boring stuff now! YOU ARE NOW WARNED.

Marcus was really cute and encouraged me to buy new shoes, since off brand-made of plastic only-shoes in Japan are pretty cheap (compared to Norway) and also because the heel on one of my boots broke and I needed a new pair.

I bought one pair pumps and two pair of boots (one with high heel). I forgot to take picture!

So even though I was thinking to not buy any shoes because I really can’t have much more things with me home because of the weight limit on the flight, I did. And I suck. 

I was really hungry so we we looked around for a place to eat – and we found one that looked good. Ajigen Kumamatsuri Okumura is the name of the place.

Food tickets machines are pretty common in casual restaurants Japan. They work like a regular vending machine, you decide what you want to have, press a button and put in money. The machine will print out a ticket for you, you give the ticket to the server. They prepare and serve the meal. Easy, and they don’t need to deal with any disgusting money!

Food ticket machine... They probably have a better suited name, but oh well.

Sapporo Miso-ramen!

I was really good, I ate all of it! I think you already know from the name, but THIS IS A RAMEN-NOODLE-THING prepared in Sapporo style. Marcus had Hakodate Shio ramen, which is… another kind of ramen from Hakodate. I want to taste all kind of ramen, but I guess that’s impossible for me lol.

After this, we weren’t ready to head home yet. It was raining so walking around in the rain wasn’t exactly tempting. We went inside discount chain store Don Quijote. They have almost everything you can imagine!

I got a little homesick when we came to the animal section… I saw a lot of cute clothing and snack for dogs. I’m always thinking about Mimi, but seeing all the dog stuff almost made me cry lol. Thinking that she is safe and taken good care of while I was away comforted me, though. My parents and siblings are very careful with her, she couldn’t have been at a better place.

Bought some presents to my baby girl Mimi, of course! Treats and clothing from Japan, haha! Lucky girl who has a mama that buy her new and exiting treats all the time~ She is just like me, she loves to taste new stuff!

I have to admit that I’m very strict about what Mimi can eat, more stricter than I am with myself. Like with food for myself, I check the back of the package to see what the snack is contained. The difference between me and her is… well, I ALWAYS do that with things I give to her while I once in a while don’t care when it comes to myself. I just want her to eat healthy.

She is very precious and she is so small – I don’t want her to eat something that might be bad for her. I know a lot of treats for dogs are made of things that things I WON’T let my baby girl eat. I once saw treats that contained added sugar, not joking! It might be that our pets would like the, but… whyyyyy?

This time buying treats was a little bit hard, though. There was a lot of prepared soft treats, which in most cases is containing a lot more of unnecessarily ingredients than what dried meat is. I can’t read any Japanese, and since I didn’t want to take the chance I bought some dried meat sticks. They probably have some preservatives like most stuff that isn’t fresh, but I won’t let her have many of those in a short time range.

…not that this has anything to do with the blog entry to do at all, I just… I don’t know. It felt great to write it down, even though I feel that some people that reads this will think something either negative or positive about me now. I might be a hypocrite, I know. She is probably eating a lot of weird stuff from the ground when she’s outside anyways. But it’s my responsible to take care of her and to be aware about what I am giving to her.

I just wonder if there is some other that feel this way about their pet? I sometimes feel that I’m overprotective… And people have told me that I was putting too much energy in this when I make home made treats out of pure meat.

She’s my precioussss after all.

WELL NO MORE DOG TREATS TALK.

We went home, and I was craving for some fruits and something light to eat. We went to 7-11, and apparently there was a lottery thing going on for those who had bought anything. Aaaand I won! GUESS WHAT I WON?

A coffee! YAY! Hahaha, LOL@ME,why I am always so silly?

That was unexpected! I usually never win anything!
Hahahha!

….

Ok, now. Back to schoolwork.

My next entry will be about Thanksgiving!

And well, on this day we had planned to meet up with Yuri, a really sweet manba girl. I was thinking that she could help me! I have known her for some time, but only from online – and finally we can meet each other IRL! I know that she is married, and I really wanted to meet her husband as well. I suggested a double date, and she was really positive about it!

Most of my friends doesn’t have a partner – and the few that have; they’re usually not very attached and prefer to not bring their partner when we’re hanging out. And well, it kinda explain itself that it means that I shouldn’t bring my boyfriend with me either, it’s like a unwritten social rule. It isn’t a bad thing bringing your boyfriend – it’s just that friends need some time alone with each other for some friend talk, not because we’re ashamed of our lovely boys or is hiding anything. Giving each other advice and let out frustrations, for example. One example is my CG girls, I love being with them alone – we always talk about our boys and love-life in general. It would be strange if any boys were with us while we talked about our girl stuff!

But I have to admit that I really missed to be with someone that is… hm, how do I explain this… someone that is more attached to their boyfriend. I would love to involve my boyfriend in what I’m doing and my friends- but I would feel it would be better if he had someone he could talk to which would understand his situation more. It’s kinda hard to explain, but… Yeah, just so it doesn’t feel unbalanced in case my extremely girly side is showing lol.

So yeah, I was really exited about this double date. I’ve never done a double date before. I will be with Marcus and I can still be super girly with Yuri without worrying about Marcus feeling left out because Yuris husband is there too!

Anyways, I told Marcus that I had some stuff I wanted to do with Yuris help so I was alone when I first met them. We went to 109MEN’S because I had planned on buying some presents to Marcus there And well, I couldn’t do this alone as I needed some people to translate/ask for me because buying clothes to other people is one of the hardest thing to do, imo. I’m always unsure about size… I don’t want to buy something too small/short or big/loose. I also know that Marcus has a long torso, which made me more unsure as the clothes seemed very short.

I’ve worn some of Marcus’ clothes before, and when I was looking I tried to compare them to the clothes I’ve tried. The shop staff told me that I could try the clothes on, but I have to say it would feel weird to go to a men clothing shop and try on men clothings………..

I told them all that I was buying presents to my boyfriend, and they all seemed very surprised. I mean, I thought it was pretty obvious - I don’t think it looked like I was doing a masculine style that day, but yet it seemed like most of them thought I was buying clothes for myself.

One of them also told me that my boyfriend was lucky and that I was really kind. It might not be so common to buy clothes as presents, I don’t know?

I ended up buying a slim fit top from Rhydeal by Silver Bullet and a wired collar shirt from Xfrm. Things I think would look good on Marcus. I hoped that he would like them.

I have always thought that the clothes in the ordinary 109 store were expensive – it’s not like the fabric is containing any exclusive materials or are made with nice handcraft – but the prices in 109MEN’S are seriously ridiculous. The clothes in 109MEN’S was twice as expensive. One example is a simple cotton top from Xfrm: they cost around 12.000 JPY while a party top from d.i.a. top cost 6.000 JPY. For a top from Xfrm you could get a small item from Louis Vuitton. oh lol

To be honest, I think it’s kinda silly that they cal sell these stuff for such a high price… I know people are crazy about brands, but why not buy from a brand that is also known for their quality and materials

Anyways, I’m really happy Yuri and her husband was with me – without them I would have trouble with communication as the shop staff tend to be very talkative even though I don’t know any Japanese and them not knowing any English at all. Thank you so much!

Me in front one of 109MEN'S entrances

We met Marcus, and I gave him the presents~ We decided to go to eggnam to take some purikura! And of course we had to touch up our makeup before, so we spent thousand hours in front of the mirror. lol

Me and Yuri

Marcus opened his presents and he said he liked them. He even decided to put on the top from Rhydeal!

He looks so good in it~

The four of us took one set purikura, and they ended up really cute and pretty. It was so fun! I think the pictures are much prettier when the smile is more «real». We all looked so happy and in love in all of the pictures.

Yuri and I wanted to take one set alone~ Since there wasn’t anyone in queue behind us, we had unlimited time to decorate. Of course we had to take advantage of that! Poor boys that had to wait for us, but the results was really nice! There is always at least one picture I don’t like, but this time I liked all of them!

<

We decided to go to somewhere to eat, we all started to get hungry. We went to izakaya place Kin no Kura (same place as last time I went izakaya).

Some of the food we ordered *______*

My favorite of all the things we ordered... Ahhhhh, I would do anything to eat this again now!!!!!!

The food was good, like last time. I understand very well why izakaya is so popular; you can get almost everything, everything is cheap and the food comes fast.

It was nice to sit down and talk… When I was younger I preferred to do stuff, but now I prefer to sit and talk. Funny how things changes so fast. I would probably have suggested to go out clubbing so we could meet new people, but now it feels more right to sit and enjoy food and drink with and learn to know the people I’m hanging out with a little better.

We talked about how things were in the past and future plans with our loved ones… Well, I’ve always wanted to talk about someone that feel the same way like I do. Yuri and I seem to have the same views on many things! I wish them the best, and I hope we can meet each other again soon.

:)

We sat there for a long time, and in the end we all had to go because it was starting to get late and we all didn’t want to miss the last trains. This was an successful night and I hope I can do double-dates more often in the future, and I would also love to hang out with Yuri and her husband again!

Thanks to Yuri for sharing some of her pictures!

Shiena told me Ashley were coming too, and I suggested to go to Starbucks while we waited for her. On our way to Starbuckswe talked about everything. At some point we talked about our hairs, and Shiena complimented my mine. I told her that I wasn’t very pleased with it, because my curling iron isn’t working good because it don’t get enough power to heat properly… Shiena told me it was possible to get a really cheap one not far away, and if I wanted she could show me where to get it. I couldn’t resist so we went there and bought one.

Just after a few minutes after sitting down in Starbucks, Ashley appeared!

We hadn’t really made any plans for that day, so we decided to take two sets of purikura

 

Three of the pictures we took~ Click for bigger!

After this we went to buy hairspray and lashes, as I needed some. I’m happy Shiena and Ashley are nice to help me, because I really don’t know where to buy them lol

Shiena and I earlier talked about nails, and she told knew a place that sold really nice glitter nail polish and we decided to go there to buy. The shop’s name is Plaza Style and was located inside the 109 mall. I fell in love with three glitter/sparkling polishes and bought them!

Bling-bling! The polish in the middle "glows" under UV-light, which is really cool when clubbing, I think!

We went to D.I.A. after that, I was looking for a new fancy top. While going trough their tops I also saw some bras, and a lot of them caught my attention. I really wanted to buy them all, but I won’t really have so many opportunities to use them so I decided to buy one only. I picked one simple one with halterneck style. Sometimes it’s better to go for the simple styles, because it will be easier to match in an outfit.

I also found a few tops I really liked, and ended up buying one with a lot of cute details. Pictures under!

Last time I bought from them I got their ordinary paper bag, but this time they gave me this huge fabric bag~ Cute!

The top and the party bra!

After this small shopping we decided to go to karaoke! It was a lot of fun, we sang so many funny songs! I were there for almost two hours before I had to leave.

lol

We took a picture together before I had to leave!

Ashley, Shiena and me

One of the persons I invited was Max, and he had brought with him his girlfriend and two of his classmates too (Marina and Jarrod)! I love meeting new people.

When two of the original people I invited hadn’t met up yet after almost 1 hour, we all decided to do something else instead. Max’s friends wanted to check out the Shibuya 109 stores so we decided to go and have a look.

109 men's building

I hadn’t been in the men’s building before and I have to say that I was very surprised about how many stores it was there! You could find anything fitting blingbling-style to forest/military-style to crazy and flashy-styles. Men’s fashion is serious business too!!!

I saw this... interesting sweater in one of the stores. lol

After this we went to the regular 109 store, and I had to look around in the D.I.A. store. At first the shop staff welcomed me like they use to do here in Japan when new customers enter. BUT to my surprise they continued to talk, and I tried to say/show in a polite way that I didn’t know Japanese. Then one of the girls said «You cool style» and they continued to talk in Japanese.  In cases like this I wish I knew any Japanese.

Max came to my rescue and translated a bit for me. We told the staff that we were all were from different countries and we chatted a bit (in my case communicating with body language lol). Max later told me the staff said they liked my style and makeup.

One of the staff girls knew a few English words and we communicated with those and body language. I tried to show her that I was looking for belts (I decided to buy a new one as I was so sad after losing the other one), and the girl showed me where they had their belts.

I tried on a few ones and decided to buy two (lol ). Then the shop staff girl asked me if I was interested in tops and jeans, and showed me their newest items. She also asked me if it was cold in Norway and needed any jackets. Haha, such a cute and lovely girl. I guess we were looking very funny when we communicated trough body language. We both laughed and it seemed like she also had a lot of fun.

When I wanted to pay, the cashier said something to me in Japanese. The first shop staff girl said something to her and the cashier quickly understood that I didn’t know any Japanese. She said «You are pretty and cool style».

The shop staff in D.I.A. are so nice!! They really gave me a good service even though I don’t know any Japanese at all. It’s pretty dangerous for me, though – I know I will come back again and buy more stuff hahahaha

Mika and I outside, in front of their shop

The two belts I've bought. I later realized that I should have picked one in another color or a more different design. Click for bigger!

We all agreed on going to eggnam to take a set of purikura.

Me and Mika sitting in front of the mirror fixing ourselves up a bit

Today's outfit: top: NewYorker, earrings: GinaTricot, bracelets: H&M and Glitter, shorts: GALSTAR, belt: D.I.A. boots: GALSTAR, undershorts: no brand, purse: CHANEL

This is how one of our pictures ended up like. LOL our eyes O_O Left: Max and Mika, Right: Jarrod and Marina. And me in front!

In eggnam there was a free lottery-thing for the ladies. All of us got a free candy-thing and one try at claw crane machine game, which were located upstairs. I guess this is a good way to promote the gaming center above, I had no idea it was one upstairs!!!

They had a lot of claw crane machines!

Mika got all of our 1-try-for-free-tickets and she won a huge box with biscuits~ She made it look so easy, but I KNOW I suck at these kind of games hahaha.

Anyways, we went to Starbucks and ordered something to drink while we waited for Marcus. Max and Mika were really nice and waited with me, thank you

Hachiko!!

I love dogs haha, and of course I had to take a picture of me in front of the statue~ I had heard the story about Hachiko long time ago.

When Marcus came we decided to take purikura, so we went to eggnam again lol.

I like this one the best :)

We were both hungry and decided to go to Tapas & Tapas, Marcus had told me about this place before and he told me he wanted to go to this place with me.

On their menu they had complete dinner for couples, which included everything where we basically shared each dish.

We paid 2.000 JPY each for all of this. That was a lot of tasteful food for the price!

I’m a huge fan of Italian food and this was sooo amazing~ If you crave for some Italian while you’re in Tokyo this is the place to go!

The obligatory "in front of ...." picture. Here I was in front of the Tapas & Tapas restaurant.

Me doing makeup!

Marita, me and Maria took a picture while we waited for Ingvild :)

The result! From left: Derpica Tang and DERPICA TANG

I LOVE that I’m starting to feel more and more comfortable with my real hair lately… In the two pictures above I used only three wefts pieces of hair, only to add a little length! In the very first picture (where my hair isn’t styled yet) you can see my natural hair and length. It’s starting to get quite full! No more thin looking hair!

I just need to cut it so I can be less dependent on wearing extensions, as I don’t really have any hairstyle. My hair looks very boring and weird without extensions!

Enough hair talk! Maria drove us all the mall~ Thanks

Pretty dollfaces in the backseats, Marita and Ingvild

A picture I took in the restroom. It's so cold here in Norway that I've started to wear bubble jacket! Well, not necessarily to wear it inside, but... sometimes it's better to wear your jacket than holding it!!

A picture of me and Ingvild I really like here on the left

To be honest, this was one of those days where I wasn’t really planning on buying anything… I’m still saving money. But I’m weak when it comes to nail polishes and there was this great sale  So I couldn’t resist! And when I first buy something, I can’t stop… kinda. So I ended up buying a few items anyways!

Oh well, it isn’t like that I have been shopping so much lately anyways. A little shopping can’t hurt!!

We had a small rest in McDonalds and I noticed they had a banana milkshake which I haven’t tried yet! I was expecting it to taste very weird and kinda fake-banana-ish, but it didn’t! It was actually very good. I think I like their banana milkshake is better than their strawberry milkshake, which was my favorite.

I don’t know why we took pictures in McDonalds we always take pictures no matter where we are, and of course we took pictures inside McDonalds! Here they are:

Me and Maria

Marita and Ingvild

Anyways, here are some of the stuff I had bought:

Fitted sweater (I've lost a few kg's lately, none of my tops fits anymore), long leather gloves, four nail polishes in trendy autumn colors and one top in funky print

I’m very happy with all of those stuff! I will wear these a lot this autumn, I can feel!

I wrote about this day in real time, actually. That’s the first time since April earlier this year! Go me, GO GO GO GOOOOO ME! I was sooo bored this day and I didn’t really feel like writing about anything exept from that boring day But I didn’t want to publish it before all the other posts was done so that’s why it comes so late…

I feel I’ve been a good girl for a very long time now and that I deserve some new stuff to make my weekend less boring. I haven’t clubbed or bought anything special since I was in Fredrikstad. That itself has saved me a lot of money as going out here in Norway is really expensive.

My sister wanted to go to the mall Nordbyen here in Larvik so I decided to join her. I was supposed to only buy things I really needed, but got myself some ehhh… not necessarily things instead.

Some cute stickers, letter set, nail stuff and VOGUE. Time to be creative and to get some new inspirations!

I wish I didn’t buy the Sally Hansen stuff, tho. 230 NOK/40 USD for those two bottles are actually expensive compared to how much cheaper they are online, I think. And I already have 59684 nail polishes in almost the same red shade so the 3rd nail thing was also useless. LOL Stupid purchases, but I will enjoy them anyways.

But! I can’t get enough stickers and I’ve not been reading VOUGUE for a half year! ._.

:stemningbling:

Talked with Fasil on the phone earlier – I haven’t been talking with him like this for a very long time.  I can’t believe how easy it is to lose contact with friends… Especially in the situation I’m in where friends really are important… I need my friends now, but somehow It’s hard to keep in touch, if that makes any sense.

I was extremely happy when he said he just wanted to ask about how I was doing. At first I thought he wanted to talk because he had some news. We don’t really speak to each other anymore. :sjokkert:

We didn’t really talk about anything special, just random talk about… random things. It’s friends like him I don’t want to lose. I really need to be better at contacting friends. x_x One day when I really need them, they might not be there for me.

:stemningbling:

Anyways, I polished my nails and read that magazine. I got a lot of inspiration, I cleaned my room and I even decided to change a little on the blog’s design.

Just a random picture I took with the new nail polish. I wish I didn't type on my computer keyboard tho, I think I smudged the polish on every finger!

Oh well, enough boring talk!  I hope your weekend is much more funnier than mine! I will go and enjoy a cup tea and continue reading VOGUE, and hopefully my boyfriend will have some time for me and call me when he gets home

Anyways, I somehow managed to get up after some time, but I suspect it was because I was starting to get hungry! We made a really nice breakfast!

Din... B-b-breakfast is served, bitches! Beans, egg, bacon, corn and tomato!

While we ate our breakfast Marita and Ingvild talked about a salt with herbs in it. Those crazy girls was talking about that salt like they were talking about a religion or something hahahaha. «Mmmmmh, this is the best salt ever», «YEAH, herbs and shit in it, you know!», «Everything taste so much better with this salt!», blablabla. Hahahahha my crazy salt-herb-girls, eh!!! This salt is from Sweden and you can’t get it here in Norway, they told me.

Ingvild came up with this brilliant idea: Why not drive to Sweden? We don’t have anything to do right now anyways! Why not drive to the shopping mall Nordby?

Hahaha, you should have seen Marita’s face. The happiest face I’ve seen in my entire life. :hihi:

So, we decided to drive to Sweden. LOL!!!

Right before we left the house! I look so weird here, and Ingvild wasn't finished with her makeup yet. But this was the only picture I had of all three of us. :') DERPYDERPGALS

DERPY ME

Me with our CRRRRRAAAAAAAAZYYY CG PARTYCAR!!!! PARTY HAAAAARD!!! Not.

I know I have some readers from Sarpsborg, and sorry - your city is actually a bit smelly, hahaha

Here they caught me in a very risky moment! I was driving with only one hand OH.MY.GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD CRAAAAZYYYY!! Eh...

Andddddd, we finally came to the country border!

It might look almost the same but I promise it isn't the same!!

A random picture lol

When we arrived the mall the first thing we did was to go straight to New Yorker. I don’t know why but we don’t have that chain store anywhere in Norway… So whenever I’m in EU and can find one of their stores I always end up buying a lot of stuff there! A lot of stylish clothes for really nice prices. I actually think that 30% of my clothes are from that chain store… Crazy, right? I’m a true big fan!

We went to the supermarket and bought that herb-salt and some shit there. Ingvilds mom wanted us to buy a few stuff for her so we did that too. HAHAHAHA. Like real harry Norwegian people do ~ shopping in Sweden.

I won’t even bother to try to translate the word harry into English. I really don’t know how to translate. But the word describe this day, us and everything related to this day very good!

The variety of sugar-free candy in Norway are not so good compared to the variety in Sweden so I bought a some I wanted to have as a treat to myself.

Me posing with a lot of shit we've bought and this SUPER HUGE PACK of minced(?) meat.

My stuff fron New Yorker: new bikini set (reminds me SO MUCH about the old good days when Alba Rosa was the shit, so I had to buy it XD), two tops and foldable ballet flats. Perfect to have in the pocket!

We went back home and started on making dinner.

Hahaha EEEEK! I love meat ok!!

Marita cutting the groceries like A REAL PRO!!!!!!!!!!

Hahahah gosh, I will stop writing on this entry now. This is getting really ridiculous hahaha.

OH! I bought the worlds most ugly (but also the cutest at the same time LOL!) handbag ever shaped as a Dachshund. I will probably use it only when I’m feeling extremely crazy. I’ts from Chopin, in case some of you wonder and really, really want a ugly handbag too.

UGLY AND CUTE OMGGGGGGG!!!!!! My heart is seriously melting! Click on the picture to get to their website.

I was actually in the same store the day before, but back then I was thinking that the bag was so f ugly. After seeing the bag I couldn’t stop thinking about it, I even had a dream about it that night. I was talking about the bag the whole time, and Marcus suggested me to buy it! LOL!!! So, yeah. I had to buy it! We’re meant for each other. :bankehjerte: My addictions always starts with hate, so this has to be a bag I really like. :hihi:

I hope I can make a funny outfit with it very soon. :hihi:

I don’t know why, but I sometimes have this crazy fashion sense. I used to have more of these «moments» before, and I honestly thought I had grew apart from that crazy taste, but I guess I haven’t. I like to have these kind of challenges. To make fugly stuff look ok in an ordinary looking outfit. I guess that’s what I enjoy the most when it comes to clothes. It’s my personal touch, kinda!

Oh well, enough Dachshund handbag talk.

Our favorite gelato bar :)

We ate some gelato (eh, wow?) and we went to Piazza Navona after the shopping.

Not sure what this building is called, but I thought it was really pretty looking :)

My boyfriend and I sat in front of Sant’Agnese, next to Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi… Such a unforgettable moment. We talked.

I don’t think I’ve ever written it here in my blog before, but I sometimes struggle with concentration when it’s happening too much stuff around me. This happens when I haven’t slept enough or haven’t eaten for a while.

Sitting in the middle of the crowd, seeing so many people walk by, the voices from hundreds of  people talking, water sounds from the fountain, street musicians playing music, lights from blinking toys, stressed people selling replica bags, police cars driving around, tourist taking pictures… Many things that caught my attention.

I’m extremely good in multitasking when it comes to things I’m controlling 100% (doing housework is a good example), but when it comes to things I can’t control my mind feel that I should pay attention to everything, which result me in not really paying attention to anything at all. Well, this is one of my weakest sides, and I guess I sometimes still find it hard to accept as it’s irritating. Haha, gosh, I feel very stripped now, I usually don’t write sensitive information like this. What’s up with me being so personal here lately?

I’m very lucky to have a patient boyfriend, though. I can imagine this could be a huge problem for us. I was honest and told Marcus I wasn’t really 100% focused on our conversation. Surprisingly, instead of being irritated, sad or anything at all he suggested that we could sit facing into the fountain and continue. I guess he understood that I didn’t do it on purpose. That made concentration a lot more easier.

We talked about our future, what we wanted to do further. We both knew that we only had a few days left… We won’t be able to see each other like how we do now. Summer is ending. We will be separated from each other.

We’ve always felt that the distance between us has been hard, but thinking that it will get even more harder… Well, I couldn’t even imagine how hard it would be. The distance we’ve dealt with so far is nothing compared to what we’re going to go trough from now on. What could I say? What am I supposed to think? How can I be a positive and cheering girlfriend when I deeply inside me feel that the only thing I really want is to be with him?

We were hungry and decided to drop in at a random restaurant where the waiter invited us in (hahaha, tourist place). We decided to sit inside and order pizzas.

Our pizzas :)

Right after we got our order and started to eat, the waiter started on closing the restaurant. It was OK for me, since it was mostly about packing away a few things from the kitchen and turn a few chairs in the other side of the restaurant.

BUT, the waiter started to stacking up chairs from the tables next to us and started to clean the floor!That made me stressed and feel that he wanted us to leave as soon as possible. While he cleaned up he told us to take our time, but seriously – I can never make myself feel comfortable to enjoy my food when I see the employees are hassling around closing the restaurant. I can’t stop help thinking that the staff probably want to go home as soon as possible.

We didn’t finish the pizzas, we decided to pay and leave because of the stress. Not that I feel it was a loss for us anyways, the pizza was actually pretty horrible tasting. LOL

Too bad, I wish we could enjoy our last meal in Rome in another place. This was an special night. And I also wish the waiter didn’t invite us in to the restaurant in the first place, we could probably have found a another place that were open longer easily. All I get is bad impression, but again, it’s our own fault for going in to tourist restaurants. Again. LOL
