Catching up to life..

Hello lovlies!

This is quite the overdue post... Summer has left us for good, and autumn is certainly starting to come. It's getting cold outside, and the leaves are all turning yellow whilst falling to the ground. I have officially taken out my winter jacket again, and it is in good use already.

So life.. Since summer vacation ended, I started a new semester at University. Time really flies! I am  now in my second year of my bachelor in History. This year though, we have to take a different subject, so we can get a wider specter of knowledge. So this year I am studying Science of Religion. It's really interesting, and so far I enjoy it. But like most subjects, it has it's dry points. Still, I am enjoying myself.

Now some of you might remember me talking about finding a new place to live, since I had to move out of my old place. And I have managed to find myself a very nice place to live. I rent through a student housing service, and am currently living in a collective with 13 other people!? so we are 14 all together. How crazy doesn't that sound? 14! I was so skeptical and worried before I moved in here. Like, what if I don't get along with anyone? Or, what is there are only annoying people living there? All sorts of different questions and worries were floating around in my head for about a month. Now I've lived here for about one and a half month, and I am really enjoying myself! The people I live with are just wonderful! I get along with everyone, and we have a lot of fun together. I get to be social everyday, and we make food together sometime. And it's so much better then I could ever have imagined it to be.

The collective I live in is a very new place. The building, which is 8 floors high, was finished this summer. So we are the first people to live here. How great isn't that? We also have a elevator in our building! I am so happy I chose to live here. Our kitchen and living area is spacious, we have two ovens and two dishwashers in the kitchen, so many people can cook at the same time. We also have a gigantic projector as a TV in the living room. The rooms are not the biggest, but they are not small either. You have enough space to function, and let me tell you the best part; I have a toilet for myself! Every room has their own, private bathroom!! Such luxury!

I think I'm gonna film a little room tour soon, so I can show what it looks like, I just need to clean it up a bit more first... x)

This was one of the best decisions I've done so far this year. I don't regret it for a minute. I am so happy. Life is smiling to me.

Now I am off to sleep, since I have an early lecture tomorrow.. Sweet dreams!
See you next time...<3

UK Vacation 2015 Day 3; Exploring Edinburgh!

Goooood Morning!

It is day 3 of our UK trip.
Today we are jumping on a train to Scotland!! Super excited!
The train left at 8 in the morning, which meant we had to get up at around 6-7am... Way too early. But I am a super worrywart, so I do not want to miss the train, meaning I would rather sit and wait, rather than having to run to make it. Yeah, I sound kinda boring.. x) But at least we made the train.




So much beautiful nature! Scotland is very similar to Norway, but that's not so much of a shocker since we have the same climate and everything. After a couple of hours on train, crossing the border and officially entering Scotland, we jumped on a bus towards our hotel. Let me tell you, taking the bus in Scotland with all of our baggage was not easy. We took up so much space, hahaha x) But we made it, and the hotel was amazing! We got a super fancy room with a kitchen and everything. Sadly we didn't have too much time to enjoy it. Next time!


After throwing our stuff into the hotel, and getting ourself cleaned up, we went out to explore the beautiful city of Edinburgh. And let me tell you; Stunning! The buildings are so gorgeous and look like they are filled with so much history.



We stayed in a walking distance to most of the stuff, so we took the time to go check out Edinburgh Castle. Such a beautiful and interesting place. I'll let the photos speak for themselves





















So much history! I loved just walking around, taking it all in. After finishing our tour, we headed down closer to the sentrum looking for some food. Found some adorable little pigs. Funfact; pigs are my Chinese zodiac sign. So yeah, had to take a picture ^3^


This dude had incredible lungs! Like seriously, insanely strong lungs. Or he might just have learned a fancy pancy breathing technique letting him blow the bag for ages... What do I know. Still pretty impressive

LUNCH! :D


After eating we met up with a friend of my friend who was in town as well. Went for a couple of drinks before we headed back to the hotel to get som sleep before the next day. Because the next day we were heading to the festival! :D
