A last post
The last two days have been a whirlwind of emotions. I’ve mainly been passing time, watching TV, playing guitar and chatting. It’s weird how well mindless humor like “the Simpsons” works when you’re uncertain of your mood. I sound like I’m emo. Alright then, this will be my first slightly suspicious, emotionally charged post, showing off my sensitive side (which of course you ladies love).
I’m truly confused at the moment, I know I’m a little scared about leaving, but I can’t place the main reason. Though it's probably the result of multiple factors; I’m leaving my friends and family, my language and culture; I’m going to live with a family I’ve never met, and I’ll have to adapt to a new way of life; I KNOW there’s SOMETHING I haven’t packed. I shouldn’t be concerned about the packing. Anything I forget I can probably get ahold of in
Packing at an early stage
I’ve packed 20 kilos of stuff so far, with a limit of 30 I’m doing pretty good. Friends, I miss you already, hope you leave some comments for me to read when I get to
Yesterday I went to see a play. I’ve always thought of the theater as slightly dull, but this has definitely changed my opinion. It was hilarious. We saw Shakespeare’s “Taming of the Shrew”. Brilliant actors. Today I’m going to a fancy restaurant, can’t wait for my last supper. I’m getting hungry just thinking about it.
I doubt my Catholic family would approve of this picture
As of writing this message, fourteen and a half hours remain with my family. That’s nothing, I’ve slept longer. Yet, at this moment, I’m surprisingly calm about it. I didn’t sleep much last night though, just before going to bed I decided I should start writing my thoughts down. It was great though, writing whatever came into my mind cancelled it out, complete tranquility. My dork-instincts immediately told me it was like a pensieve. I know, I should go out more. Also, it made me think about the song Little Acorns by the White Stripes. Jack White sings “The problems in hand are lighter than at heart”.
Lastly, the very talented and nice Hallvard Skauge has been generous enough as to draw a caricature of me. Blogger.com doesn’t allow profile pictures bigger than 50 kilobytes, so I thought it’d only be fair to post a larger version. Thanks again for the picture.
