I'm going HOME :D

Got the day off from school today because of 3-4 cm of snow.. haha pathetic! But had plenty of time to pack up my things and I even walked to town just to get out of the house and see the snow on my last day i Cambridge year 2009... There were loads of people outside making snowmen and playing in the snow. Funny how something I think is so common is so special for the people here since they so rarely see snow.. Brought my camera along with me so here are some pictures of Cambridge during proper winter!

woke up to this beautiful weather this morning

Our house <3

snowmen!

Aaah... I'va had a fantastic 3 months here in Cambridge, and looking forward to the new year here... Many new adventures to come! Well.. My suitcase is packed and the taxi will be here in 15 minutes, so guess I have to go... Next time I'm blogging I'll be at HOME :-) oh yeah!

let it snow, let it snow, let it snow...

Never mind what I said earlier about there not being any snow here.. I have no idea what has happened, it hardly ever snows here, but suddenly today it started to snow like crazy!! Been full snow-storm the past hours or so, and some parts of Cambridge has lost its electricity... We most likely will get the day off from school tomorrow, since the college har to close when it's snowing because.... Well really I don't know why... English people are wimps! Everything just stops when the snow comes... Pretty funny watching everyone panic for 4-5 cm of snow, when at home 40-50 is common.. Oh well, their not as  tough as us norwegians..
My only concern is that the bus to the airport will be dalayed Friday night, so we'll miss our plane home... That will be aweful! But hopefully, we'll be fine... So for now I'm enjoying the sight of snow everywhere...
A winter wonderland it is!

some people making a snowman at the busstop!

snoooow <3

facebook statuses...apparently it's snowing!? for anyone who don't speak norwegian, snø means snow.. (click on the picture to make it bigger)

Let me go home..

I love this song! Michael Bublè has such a nice voice and the lyrics are so true right now.. I just wanna go home...
Have a listen :-)

Ready for Christmas

Oh yes! Can't think about anything else these days... I'm actually going to be home in just 2 days! I can't believe it! Feels like I've been here in Cambridge forever, but at the same time it feels like I just got here.. Weird...It'll be great to get back home for two weeks and see my family, dog and friends again!


It doesn’t really feel that much like Christmas here.. Not much Christmas lights around here (people here have a tendency to either not put up any Christmas decorations, or decorate their whole house. And I live in a area where no one decorates unfortunately), And even worse, NO SNOW!! I’m really missing the snow at home! It better be lots and lots of it when I get home this Saturday!

The Christmas spirit is still here a little with my advent calendar from my mom: (thanks alot <3 )

And listening to Christmas songs:

Bring on december 19 th!

….And all that jazz!

Karoline and I have decided that we are going to try all the different dance classes they have down in town at this dance studio called ”bodywork.” We’ve been talking about it for really long, but we haven’t really gotten our butts down there+ it’s been so busy at school so haven’t really had much time the past weeks. They offer all kinds of dance classes from hip-hop to ballet... A girl in my class, Helene, has been talking about trying jazz for soo long, and she wanted someone to go with her, but since I have had photography classes the previous 10 Wednesdays, I couldn’t go with her until today.. So we agreed that we were going to meet there at 7.45… But when I got there…. No Helene…! She had totally forgotten about it that silly girl.. Haha, So Karoline and I had to go without her… Oh well.. I thought it was really fun, so I’ll probably go back sometime after Christmas…Helene you better not forget about it then! ;)

I'm a brunette now..!

Pampering

Today Karoline, Malene and I went to the beauty salon at our school and got manicures and a back massages. It took one hour for the manicure and half an hour for the massage, and we only paid 10 pounds!! (about 94kr or 16 dollars) That’s really cheap, and it was soooo lovely! Just what I needed to finish up this semester.. And going back tomorrow to get my hair done.. So I’m ready for some vacation now!! 4 days left :-)
