...because now I'm 17!
Yeah, today's my birthday 
I'm now 17 years old!
I'm now 17 years old!I like to call the ages of 15-17 years old "the awkward years". They're kinda the three years where you're definitely not a child anymore, but you're not quite an adult either. You get a lot more responsibility and freedoms during these years, but at the same time you still enjoy a lot of the benefits of being a child, and you're not yet expected to take on all the responsibilities and freedoms of being an adult.
No more than a few hundred years ago, 17-year-olds were considered adults, and pretty much expected to form their own family and to take care of themselves. Today, we can enjoy being teenagers. This gives us a much smoother transition from child to adult, instead of just suddenly throwing us into the deep end.
So I don't know about you, but I'm ready to go out and enjoy being a 21st century teenager
09.09.14 - Back To Reality...
...and also some good news!
Hey again! I'm sorry for the long summer hiatus, but now I'm back and I'm hoping to be able to write more frequently now.
So, my life has changed massively since last time I wrote. Some minor changes include adding a bunch of new great memories, as I had a wonderful summer and finally got to practice my Spanish with actual Spanish people and I was able to hang out with my best friend a lot. My family and I are also looking after a wonderfully cute and adorable dog for we don't know how long, and there's a big chance we'll end up buying him!
But those are just minor changes compared to the rest that's happened i
16.06.14 - Once Again It's Summer Holidays...
...but not quite yet.
Yeah, summer holidays are fast approaching. And for most students at my school, it's already come. Except for the students in my class, the 2IB class. We're still stuck in school for another week, working on our Extended Essays. Which, since everyone else is on holiday right now, is kinda annoying.
But at least we had a great time the first week of June. We went on a class trip to Edinburgh, and it was awesome! We went to see the Scottish Parliament, the Universities of Glasgow and Edinburgh, we went city sightseeing... The list is long, and it was a fantastic trip. I might post some pictures soon.
So, yeah. Hope you
12.05.14 - Rise Like A Phoenix...
...because Conchita Wurst is now Queen of Europe!
I’m really happy Conchita Wurst won Eurovision.
Before watching the final, my favourite song was Iceland’s No Prejudice. I firmly hoped for it to win, and I voted for it during the voting. I hadn’t actually heard the Austrian entry before, but I knew who would be performing it and I thought that no matter what the song was like, it’s was cool that they’d have a drag queen performing.
But then the announcements of the votes began. I was watching the show with my homophobic dad, and he got annoyed when they started giving Austria 12 points. So, just to spite hi

...Relating to the Russ...
In Norway, high school seniors celebrate by doing crazy things and dressing in a kind of uniform. This is called Russ. And as mentioned, the Russ do a lot of crazy things.
Today, the Russ at my school “celebrate” no-makeup-day, which means that females may not wear make-up and males may not wear hair products. Unless you’re a Russ, in which case you’re exempt. And if you don’t comply, they’ll spray you with water or something.
When I got ready for school this morning, I had no idea that today was no-makeup-day, so I put product in my hair as I’d normally do. I came to sch
