It is always too much happening everyday. Dunno why I choose English, gotta admit that my English is totally influenced by my norsk... I know it won't be really some literature anyway, but just to write my own story down... Someday it would probably happen to me having AD or similar amnesia maybe in my relative early age,say about 45 years old, if I am lucky enough to live that long? hee, it could be then that I have AD disease, not able to remember anything...

 

Norsk is not easy to read but Chinese is kinda limited for friends around me here also...since nobody really has time to read my life..and I believe even my friends in China are mostly well-educated esp. with English reading and listening comprehension capability. Anyways, I need a start, to "document" what is happening in my daily life..

 

The touching details are likely to fade out from memories sooner or later, no matter how unforgettable they were. Since my university time, it has been lots of friends telling me that my life should be written down and someday I could probably have a book of my own stories... I know I am neither a writer good at words or a good reader. But I believe the stories of mine, are really sth.,at least not everyone who could even have a probability of similar experience. Not because of how special I am, but all our life are more or less dependent on what kind of personality we have. For me, all kinds of experience came across my life; probably because I am such a curious girl who has so much interests in such a lot of things. Even last year, the group of Norwegians living together with me in South African gave me kinda funny nickname -- "hvorfor" which means "why" in English. Living outside my motherland, I still keep on my own personality, which even got strengthened. My curiosity keeps me asking whatever I dun understand, whatever I am curious about. So many ppl start to like my directness and "baby" behavior. Sometimes I could be echo of others, just repeating my friends' words when I didn't really wanna ask but thinking pronunciation funny.

 

So, all these kinds of experience can be funny, weird, cheerful, strange, cool, exciting, and surely sometimes unpleasant. I really wanna write some of them down when I can time from now on. Starting from last week, I will try to complete whatever I can remember for last mth. after a while...

 

Too much has happened everyday... I got a trick this time: looking at the pics, which are really helpful for digging the past time out...

 

13. Feb. 2008 Wednesday

It was the second Couch Surfing meeting I have ever attended in Oslo. It was also the second time for me to meet up the "businessman" who I kept distance for almost 2 mths. since our first meet in a private time last Nov. It turned out alright that separating the private life and working can be achieved by one after the other. It was a nice and cozy concert in a bar located in one part of downtown with kinda art atmosphere. Both of the two singers are members of CouchSurfing, and that is main reason for the free entrance that night. The concert was also the Texas,US girl's first stop in Norway national tour as part of her 08 worldwide tour. I was fascinated by her and his(a Norwegian guy) song when I first time listened to some demos thru their MySpace given the links by the CS concert arrangement. They are quite good match, I have to say, and both of them are funny, relaxed but somewhat sarcastic in a casual way.

 

Afterwards, the 'businessman', who turned out to a very warm-hearted tourguide, drove me to some place I have never been to, instead of driving me directly home. That place is so similar to my longing -- the fjord, the western coast which I used to live in and where I always think me belong to. It was quiet without seeing any other humanbeing, only some tracks of tires on the road. It is supposed to be really popular for those cyclists in a good weather, but now nobody is really coming over. Yep, it is the north of Oslo, where the drinking water came from and which was city-planned not having any kinda

constructions on. So, besides a few houses and cabins having some inhabitants sparsely on sides of the road, it was just woods along the way. From this high spot, I could even see Holmenkollen, the ski jumping centre on the other side. Guess that there were just these two places where people can have the overview of Oslo, and most of people have probably been to Holmenkollen even for the travelers, but it is not so common for stopping here to have the overview. As mentioned, it was also my first time though I have lived in Oslo not really long.
