I am so sleepy lately. Just today i fell asleep on the couch when i got home from school, and i hardly ever sleep during the day. But now it is late and i still have a bunch of homework but maybe i should prioritate sleep. Also, it is extremely cold both outside and inside. That is why i sleep with three thick blankets.

Okay, so no i'm leaning more towards taking a year off and going to krabbesholm, the photography school. Reason for that is that my mom talked about maybe having a job for me that involves me going to the netherlands and doing lab work sometime during that year! And one of the main reasons for me taking a year off would be to go somewhere new and meet new people, which i would get to by going to krabbesholm as well. And since i want to go to the university afterwards and study something science-y, i think some lab work in the netherlands will only be a positive experience. I have to admit i am pretty excited now.

Okay i just realized this post turned out a bit long. Proof that i take too many photos. But seeing as a photo says more than a 1000 words, i won't write much.
Today was the last of the two days i spent at the university. We got do an experiment on a piece of rat intestine, and got to see the seals again. We fed them yesterday, and the reindeer as well. I'd only brought my disposable camera, so i don't have them to post.

A short video of the seals. It was too dark to take photos.

some rat intestine:


And yesterday Findus tried catching snowballs:






And i finally got to see the northern lights again:

So the highlight of today was when i went in one of our closets with old clothes, looking for an old sweater i couldn't find. Instead of actually finding the sweater i was looking for, i found a bunch of other exciting things:

cow-patterned tights i actually used to wear when i was like, 10 (the amazing/freaky thing was that they actually fit!):


i was particularly excited about these two dresses (they look better in real life):



and two sweaters my grandmother knitted for me when i was like, 12. But they are still wearable, because they were a bit too big for me back then:


(oh and i didn't intentionally look this stupid!)

other smaller highlights were drinking coffee and reading. I have a cool coffee cup. Take a break with Paddington!

(And i'm ignoring the fact that it is valentines day today)

The last one was to show you my t-shirt and make you envious! I love t-shirts, you can find so many with interesting prints on. Anyway, these were the result of me being bored. I have a gazillion photos from that boring friday afternoon. I simply take too many photos! And no, they are not all of myself, most of them are of my silly cat. I am just a bored teenager, that is all.
Yes, yesterday proved to me that i have no life. I was home all day, either on the computer, reading or watching tv. All my friends were busy with stuff, like studying for our math test that i won't have to take because i will be going to the university for two days next week. I'm actually pretty excited, i am one of the few who get to go. My first wish was to go to the department for medical biology, but that one was very popular and they only had room for two students, so i didn't get to go there. But i'll be going to the department for arctic biology. They have a bunch of reindeer and muskox walking around there. Though i think i'll just be following scientists around and see how they work.
Now i just walked in a snowstorm to the grocery store. At one point it started hailing and it was pretty cold (i ended up looking like some small snow monster!) but i did get some fresh air and some chocolate pudding!

Hi.

So this is my first post on this blog. Here I'll be posting a bit of everything: what is going on in life, outtakes, photos of mine that i don't put much/any thought into, features, ramblings, writings, drawings. I guess i was inspired to have somewhere to post all this. Otherwise it will just rot away in my head/notebooks/folders/external hard drive and whatnot.
I hope you'll bear with me.

Love
Nikoline
