The day is here, coronary hart disease in men or lifestyle and health in youth, might be combined with a small piece of addiction and substance abuse.Well, the literature is wide and the time isn't quite long enough. Have not been blogging for ages, but I needed a small "hello world" =) So, here I am. Still small and of no special meaning this earth. Still haven't made any big discoveries or

Peace, sunshine and Prince

2010-04-17T17:50:00.003+02:00

The sun has come to Norway... together with the big cloud of ash =/ Oh, well... Happy days to me anyway!I am giving myself the five minutes of peace that I need today, it has been difficult finding them. I have now found Prince on Spotify, feeling in the mood and drinking my cup of coffee... Silencing all the sounds out, answering only to myself and Prince. Thoughts of what is happening in my

Wearing a hijab, needed to express this!

2010-03-05T18:02:00.006+01:00

Just need to be written, I am so sick of this debate!What harm will a few sweet girls covering their hair at school do? How is it any irritation or problem for anyone? We are talking hijab, and we are talking at school. The debate is about not allowing these kids to cover up their hair.Doing a hypothetical her...Growing up being a Muslim, lets say at 8 years old.

....STOP if you only need bright and happy to fill your day ;)I will be talking in past tense for this one.I do know I am bad at sharing right at the time it happens. But things tend to feel much more serious when I say them out loud, and especially if I get sympathy on top.. hehe, that I know I always get!Starting with yesterday, going backwards complaining about the beginning of 2010.....Been

Thoughts of today....I pass people on the street in the subway, well... I pass people all day actually (!!) One of those thoughts comes to mind, the thought of us dark private people up here in the north. You can say what you want, but at least we are honest?!? Well, doesn't a general grumpy face make a general grumpy inside! (??)This disgusting man on the subway today. He was trying to make

We can all be there and see and we can all be there and feel the earth vibrating. The likes and dislikes of any argument, and the argument that slowly grows into a passion that might be mistaken for a fight! Hehe, I like to let my words flow... some Freudian free association on blog, some more:Something is just wrong... somtimes, the cat talks and I might not. Laughter fills me, how I feel .void

Being inspired By Medium Geek I go ahead thinking about what to do for a resolution this year. I seldom do resolutions, but I have become a bit worked up reading about all the good stuff people plan on doing... So, here I go. I will try this resolution thing =)Fooooor 2010 (BTW, how did the discussion on this end: "twenty ten" og "two thousand and ten")* Finnish my bachelors (well, this is more a

2010-01-02T12:08:00.003+01:00

Got the urge to write, waiting and anticipating.Where did the old year go, when did it pass me buy. I am excited about what to do next, I do know that somehow there will be something moving forward. Just can't seem to take control of it myself. Lately feeling I am loosing control more and more, outside events keep making an entry... Making all my plans difficult to execute... Difficult I say, not

C' la vie - or is it really so?

2009-11-12T21:27:00.004+01:00

I some times wonder how everyone else is perceiving their surroundings. Do I look at something being strange or odd when it really isn't perceived as anything like that be the more 'normal' part of the world (saying that exists!). Is my beautiful the same as yours beautiful? Surly it is not, but some sort of beautiful is still thought of as more beautiful than anything else... Right this instant

2009-10-08T21:34:00.002+02:00

I get moments of inspiration, but always at the wrong time! I start to wonder if it is because I at that time know I will not be able to write anything down, or it is just the windows of clarity that come by at certain times during the day. Now I am only writing this post because I am irritated about all the things I wanted to write earlier, but that just didn't stick.... The moment is gone =(Ok,

Just couldn't find the right quote to say it ;)

2009-09-13T23:06:00.008+02:00

I walk, feet moving in front of me. One step, one more step! I do not see the road, I stumble. Regain balance, but the fear has set itself. My legs are not as steady and I look down at the abyss below me. My feet stops, I stop and look! My eyes look, they look down and around. They see things they have not seen before. Mountains, sky - a lovely sky - Earth and life in a small bird, a squirrel. I

Life is full of priorities and I am having big problems in putting one thing above the other. It is the art of measuring the right now and the tomorrow into a big bucket of slush, AND to make it look tasty!I do want to live right now and do those things in my life that can put some more quality into it. I do want to make all my tomorrows nice and comfy, to make a good home and to have a good

Also the time when a few discoveries about other people comes to the surface (that is my guess at least!). For me the discoveries have just started, and from what I see they will continue for a while (can I make anyone believe I am 25 in this equation?). A

My latest thoughts have been on how easy it is to paint the picture in the colors of preference. Maybe I am just tired, I don't know..... I see a drug problem, the police say it has reached a limit and will chase the addicts away. I am happy with them supplying me a solution. I feel the drug problem will soon be solved.....I see prostitutes in the streets, the state puts out laws to make it

What is this creepy spring feeling that makes me want to share more than looks with someone of the opposite sex. I am so proud of my - self-confident, don't really care, like me the way I am, I deserve something great - attitude. Yupp, that is who I am (at least in theory). This works out fine for me and I don't feel I have to do any double somersaults or flip over backwards to find someone when

2009-04-20T20:10:00.002+02:00

... and not from the little wise one, ah why notFrom the wise little hen - from me =)I have been thinking a lot lately. Every morning I turn on the news, and as I enjoy having a long morning with time rather then the rush hour many prefer - I get the news run over and over a few times. Plus the occasional political discussion and opinions. Yes, I have chosen this before music and happy breakfast

My shame

2009-01-31T23:56:00.003+01:00

I get so sad. I feel like I shouldn't in some way, and in the same way I should! While hundreds of kids get killed or abandoned or neglected every day, I cry over the one I am able to capture glimpse of. I want to see the world, but if I want to do that I can't feel sad for every soul. But isn't that just what everyone should. God, do I make any sense?? I know people whom choose to censure what

For my blog

2009-01-16T22:29:00.003+01:00

Yet again I feel like writing without any idea about what. Every other day I see something/someone, I here about something new - exiting -, I see people around me acting in a wonderful or terrible ways... etc. I observe, oh God I am a curious person, and I wonder. In my head I start writing a small blog post, and I am always very proud of my ways to put it all together =) I even produce it in

Maybe it will make sense... lets see.The winter has finally come, it feels so much better when the snow brings some light and in a way makes it warmer. Hmm, overlooking the times when wind and snow

Mini-comment on class and politics (wonders never cease)

2008-11-29T18:05:00.006+01:00

Reading for my exams I stumble upon something said by the American journalist and sociologist, Thomas Frank.It is in an article by Olav Krange published in "Nytt Norsk Tidsskrift" 3/2007. The article is on and about class in Norway.One of the comments made by a working class hunter in the inland of Norway was that he could sit down and drink coffee with the forest owner, claiming there were

Prosocial behavior

2008-11-19T17:20:00.002+01:00

In my modest opinion of myself, I have a completely objective example of prosocial behavior and its repercussion (I call it prosocial in that the consious act was done without an intention of getting something back). The general point to this text is the tendency others have to copy prosocial behavior, and when this was so obviously put infront of me I can not help but to write a short post =)At

So many changes, but it all stays the same

2008-10-15T23:00:00.004+02:00

Isn't it remarkable how we can think of our lives as so huge while we are so incredible small! Today I feel small, not for any particular reason, just a feeling of being dust =) It is easy to think of this as related to something, maybe I have been feeling down or blue. That might be, but I have also at the same time had some very great loving days.. It is not that!I hope I am not alone thinking

Blessed be me

I planned not to write anything on my blog until this "era" was over. There is not enough patience in my blood! I tried to write for my self; a small book I will keep working and dreaming about until the day comes that it will no longer be a dream =)The bad thing about writing there, without having my blog as a side gig, is that it gets to personal. So, new plan! Started writing more mails and

A new break

2008-09-08T19:38:00.004+02:00

My blogger consciousness is killing me, I had so many intentions on writing about all the new discoveries in my life. Now, even more is happening that I am curious about and want to write about.But, what has happened is everything. I had a long talk with a friend that just shook her head and asked me to stop... Sorry, you just have to take something away! Thinking about this for some time, this

How, as a parent, can you find that big nothing inside your soul concerning your child. That big empty that can make you take the life of your kid before your own! Yes, I can stretch my understanding to killing yourself; There is nothing

I had a promise to myself to write about some of the more exiting topics that I now feel close. I have been crying and laughing so much these last months trying out some of my knowledge in the world.It has been a challenge and I have surprised myself in many areas, sadly disappointed myself a bit to (trying some positive thinking; this is the areas where I have had to high expectations!)

2008-08-09T17:02:00.005+02:00

I have reached the point of NEEDING to write! I am again on the edge of eruption, things are happening around me and it just feels abstract.At this writing moment I feel I am watching my life go bye from the outside. Knowing what to do, and irritated because this stupid person I am watching isn't paying attention! Sitting on the donkey on the marry-go-round (Strange picture to explain a strange

All went well, and she will start the 18th of August. Actually a bit before, but that is not the "real" school...

Not going in details on my escapades and fun (haha, just to keep some people still in the dark!) - as beeing personal seldom is one of my difficulties in this blogg!

I have a small worry, small but it goes deep into my soul.I feel like a stranger in so many ways and situations. Some times I do not even recognize myself. One important point being that it doesn't feel like it's the world around me that's changing as much as it is me (in my subjective point of view!), and in many ways it doesn't feel like a good change.Alienated and left outside my own body to

Is it the "do the things that come easily" philosophy or is it the salmon; "swimming against the tide".Hihi, maybe a bit unfair comparing this philosophy with salmons? It has a good logic in my head right now =)Maybe what to aim for is something in between, as most things in this day of age!Answers will

My biggest problem is that the ways and places I master is not the areas valued by society(it seams!?!). Yes, friends and family might give me complements or mention that I have achieved a lot. I feel I do and do and do,

I still see lots of exiting things in other parts of psychology, but nothing intrigues as the human mind in action! In most of these studies we claim that this could not be us, time and culture must be a factor... True, some of these studies can't be done again because of this modern new thing

Usually I write to express myself, get my words out. But sometimes it would be nice to get this going a bit further. I understand that many reserve themselves from discussing my subjective opinions of my own reactions or feelings! It is my feeling.... but it is also ways to look at life, that might be something worth getting view points on! I have ways of seeing the world around me, most likely I

And if you for a moment thought I was talking about myself, you are mistaking ;O)Finely it is official, there's a physical reason why woman need to talk about feelings. If they shut up they get sick, men don't (yet again the unfairness of gender!)Why we have managed to put our self in these roles that make us physical sick, God only knows (and for non believers: I do not know who would know!?!).

Just a note

2007-10-10T09:45:00.000+02:00

I have discovered that the number one hit on my blog is "definition of sadness", that is a paradox. (But I actually do have a definition in some old post!)Here I wonder around in my daily life claiming I'm an optimist and finds all the good in life, while it is through sadness people find me. From the contents on my blog, who I am in this blog, I guess it is focus on the sadness. And it comes

The other day while I was sitting watching a series, Emily in bed, the door to her room opens. She had to go to the bathroom. A big smile came over my face. She was wearing nothing but her purse.. Hehe, she was wandering out of her room with this white doggy, poodle purse around her shoulder. Head held high, like the proudest looking girl that has ever walked naked with a poodle purse to the

A frustration that never leaves, and that I get reminded of almost every day!There was a post in Dagbladet(no) about posters hung up in a park displaying one phantom drawing of a rapist, and also a picture of a girl with blood smeared over her face. The text on the poster summarized: "Two out of three rapists are ethnic, from non-western countries. Most of them hate Norwegians, our culture - and

The power of people and turning the page

2007-09-05T10:12:00.001+02:00

Yet again I turn the page and begin on a new chapter of my life - Well, one might not call it completely new - the page is turned something new is in it's first stages of life, something else is in it's last.What is life, what is a beginning, if not the ending of something else. At the very least a beginning for one thing is a change in something else, but I strongly think that change often is

Going back =(

2007-06-30T12:09:00.000+02:00

Some people are made for big experiences and lots of change; life in the fast lane! It looks like that life, even though it has so many good sides, doesn't work for me.Why aren't there anything that can make me adapt to Finland ?- Daniel, having a great boyfriend to spend my days with... Nope! (But he will ofcource still be there, just not every day)- My education, the great school I'm attending

My life a mimicry....

2007-03-25T10:40:00.001+02:00

As happens often now, I have a writers block. Might it be the Finnish air ?I have been so quiet that not even my family have heard my voice for a while and the birds have stopped chirping outside our apartment just anticipating the moment there will be heard a sound from inside....... but from what I know I'm not the only one with a phone ;o)Yet again, then, I stumble with something and anything.

Emily and I were just a visit in Norway. We only left for a short visit to see my new nephew, Emily's new cousin.I have lost my time when it comes to blogging thees days (I will soon recover), but I just have to post this picture as I am a proud aunt =)Listen, can you hear it? Spring's sweet cantata. The strains of grass pushing through the snow. The song of buds swelling on the vine. The tender

Knobs - 3

2007-02-10T22:31:00.000+01:00

Just an update....Though we found them, got two of them attached back in their right places, the last one has gone missing (again).I blame Emily, but the poor kid probably had nothing to do with it !?!Ofcourse the last one was the one in the bedroom, which I do not know why we didn't get back in place first. So sleeping is still pain and (yes I have tried) getting the once we do have of again is

Masculinism

2007-02-08T15:12:00.000+01:00

Thinking about a few things here in the "western world" (rather, the cold north!).From Wiki on feminism i quote;"Feminism is a collection of social theories, political movements, and moral philosophies largely motivated by or concerned with the liberation of women. In simple terms, feminism is the belief in social, political and economic equality of the sexes, and a movement organized around the

Kidnapped knobs - part 2

2007-01-29T12:04:00.000+01:00

Haha...After sweatting for a few days we finaly found them again. We had to move the furniture around a bit to let the dog get around to all it's food.And what did we find 'hidden' besides Emilys chair!!!So, we called of the police and cancelled our planed daily ice-swimming. The knobs are back were they belong and we are breathing normal again =)The more you sweat in peace, the less you bleed in

What's up with steeling our knobs!!!

2007-01-28T12:05:00.000+01:00

We got a letter some days ago witch (after Daniel had it translated at work) we found out was some people comming measuring the heat in our appartement. I can get that, it's a newly built place and it has central heating... They need to calibrate or something!The other day we figuered out that they most likely had ben here, since some furniture had been moved. Same day I go to put Emily to bed

Just a thought again. Thinking and looking for answers;from within me or from others sorounding me.As I discover 1) it's hard to find all the answers alone, why do I never try different approaches ? I better tryyyyyyy, just a little bit harder!What went wrong in the story of me, what went right?I know some right things I have at the moment, but still I keep pestering about the few things that's

Again it has been a while, harder to blog theese days!As so many others I would like something to make this dark time a bit lighter, if summer at this moment is not possible, then give me at least some snow to lighten up things a bit!.... or some anti-depressives please, hehe =)At the same dark time I get a bundle with exams, naaa... Probably not that much to complain about. Only three now in

Why are women diagnosed with PTSD more then men ?

2006-11-21T09:19:00.000+01:00

I recently read an article from science daily about PTSD (Posttraumatic Stress Disorder) where it states that reasearch shows woman are more frequent diagnosed with PTSD then men, even though men have a higher risk of traumatic events.Yes, I do wonder, have wondered and probably will keep on wondering about the "carefree" aditude so many have... In so many, I put the weight on men. I still

It's here!I feel strangly "not depressed and sad", and my blogging gets to suffer from that. My thoughts and wondering is not used to this chairfull state of mind.I guess someone (living very close to me) might be of a different oppinion of my "chaifullness", hehe. The thing

Last book has been Nelson Mandela, The road to freedom.I'm not going for a review of the book, but something I've been thinking about if I am able to really get it.It has been a long time since I've read a biography like this, and my initial thoughts was that the style was not very good.

A few minutes, actually a weekend all by myself...Emily and I spend lots and lots of time together, so one would think it's nice to have a weekend alone!?! Yes, in one way. Because I need it... But when she left with my sister earlier I was really sad. Ofcource I usually miss her when we are appart, but sometimes it just isn't right. Maybe I'm jealous for all the fun she'll have while I'm stuck

When mindfulness embraces those we love, they will bloom like
