Notiser eg skreiv til vevkompiser, for at dei skulle sjå korleis eg hadde det uti ~~den store verda~~. Har luket ut ein del som ikkje var relevant (og kanskje noko som var litt personlig??). Trykk “Continue reading” for å lese meir.

I’ve been watching a ton of movies lately. The last week I’ve seen like, 11, in addition to a ton of shorts. It’s been good, but I think I ought to go back to max 1 a day.

01-26-2009 12:29 PM
Also I’ve tought myself parts of the tetris theme on piano.

We’re writing short stories in class this month. We are to deliever one, but I’m working on two and I’m having a hard time chosing. They’re both in Norwegian so I ain’t gonna post no text bro but I can talk about them.

Oland: This is the one I have worked least with, since I’m not sure what I want to do with it. It’s mostly a story meant to be beautiful, kinda. It’s a girl that lives in a bus in a field between some mountains, and the bus is like a old white schoolbus-thing, and every day she is visited by a guy who comes with food,a nd the guy is beautiful and the two loves eachother, and he brings juice and crabs and the lay on the roof of the bus and talk and she tells him a story etc. etc. it’s really just a beautiful story. I wanted it to be in the mind of an old woman who gets one visist every day by a male nurse, and imagines it in her head as the most perfect thing, but I realised that it could just be a nice story without any hidden strings.

The other one is (on the surface) a story where a boy walks into his house and talks to his mom about how he ate snow, and now his stomach aches. Though it’s really about a grown man visiting his mothers grave, and admitting to her that he has been unfaithful to his wife, and that she wants a divorce. It’s pretty challenging to write. My first draft (that I talked to the teacher about) was way to vague, and she didn’t get it at all. I don’t know how much information I should give away.

Everything I write I imagine as movies, though, and I’d love to write both of these as short screenplays, however both of them involve children as actors, and that can’t be done by the filmclass in school here.

I listened to Yann Tiersen on repeat when writing the Oland story: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T2zWW…eature=related

He’s a great composer and that’s a great tune and a good movie so @@@@

The movie "Slumdog Millionaire" is one of the best I’ve seen. Lately at least. It’s fantastic, you should all watch it! Try to avoid the trailers though, since they spoil what was to me a magic moment.

01-26-2009 01:59 PM
Plan for today:
– Eat dinner
– Start working on a 30 minute Wizard of Oz-play made for children
– Discuss the Oz thing with two other writers
– Prolly buy some snacks
– Eat again
– Watch a movie from 2008 and eat some of the aformentioned snacks

So that’s the plan. I might write a bit too.

My roommate (or his girlfriend) have been borrowing my mouse for way over a month, and I’m finally about to get it back (note that both of us forgot about it)

01-26-2009 04:36 PM
Maybe buying a DS now (if the person ships to Norway)

01-26-2009 04:37 PM
Working on the Wizard of Oz thing.

01-26-2009 10:45 PM
State of affairs I dislike:
– Drama*

* Which involves me**
** Indirectly***
*** But still directly enough that it affects me in a way that’s really annoying

01-26-2009 11:00 PM
I just got the book "Perfume" by some German guy. I loved the movie, and I’m looking really forward to reading the book. I also got a neato bookmark

01-26-2009 11:05 PM
Me and my brother are going to a Don Quixote ballet in the end of march. On the premiere. At the new opera house in Oslo (not that new anymore, though). Looking forward to it!

Saw a documentary about holocaust today. Some pretty gruesome pictures. Holocaust wasn’t cool at all (heads up).

01-27-2009 11:52 AM
Within 20 minutes I’ll probably know what part I’m gonna play in Wizard of Oz. Hoping for the lion

01-27-2009 05:33 PM
I got to be the scarecrow, which is awesome!

01-27-2009 05:33 PM
Thought: Is Jar-Jar Bings the scarecrow of the StarWars universe?

01-27-2009 05:34 PM
The American guy at school here has given me gigabytes upon gigabytes of music, and there’s some sweet stuff there. Mostly indie and classic rock. Also some neat hip-hop.

01-27-2009 05:35 PM
How the new year has been to me thus far:
– Tired, despite lots of sleep
– That was really all I had to say, though there’s probably more too

01-27-2009 05:36 PM
I love the presenter-voice in Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Heart Clubs band. I wish the song would be more him and less not him.

01-27-2009 10:41 PM
Just saw Hellboy 2, it was just as expected. Okey! The comics are probably better though.

01-28-2009 04:15 PM
Doing NOTHING as in NO THING and I’m freezing too!!

01-30-2009 09:18 PM
I’m sick today, I like how when you’re sick you’re all pathethic and weak, and spend most of the time jsut feeling sorry for yourself. It’s kinda weird!

01-30-2009 09:18 PM
Milk is a gay movie (it’s good though)

01-30-2009 11:14 PM
I just saw the only Norwegian feature film (documentary) to win an Oscar, Kon-Tiki. It was pretty interesting and funny at times.

01-30-2009 11:14 PM
Got a bunch of projects going on, and some that I want to start on. Ugh~

01-30-2009 11:15 PM
The "Ugh~" wasn’t because I don’t like projects, but because I’m so bad at doing anything with them. A selection of the ones I’m working on now:
– Writing a short story for class
– Writing an article about the SW holiday special
– Some thingy with Asia
– Learning how to draw
– Working out
– Make a website
– Get rich or die tryin’

Some of my fingers hurt, and also various parts of my body. I have a theory it’s from when I practiced on playing the Oz scarecrow, and basically just fell over alot.

01-31-2009 01:07 AM
Gonna have a go at sleeping again, though I have slept the entire day.

01-31-2009 10:42 AM
So I slept for a while, and then when morning came I took a 30-minute walk, then a shower, then I ate breakfast, and now I’m here surfing. I’m much better today, though I’m still sickish.

01-31-2009 01:13 PM
Been chilling in the student living room for quite a while now. Downloading the latest battlestar galactica.

01-31-2009 08:17 PM
I’ve been feeling gradually more sick all day, though I’m still better than
I was yesterday.

Refleksjon: Jess, litt spesielt at eg var (er?) så glad i å lage historier som eignetleg er noko heilt anna enn det dei ser ut som. Trur eg har misforstått “lese mellom linjene” eller kanskje tatt det for bokstaveleg. Og er var ikkje sjuk veldig mye på fhs, men når eg er sjuk har eg meir dødtid å bruke til å t.d. oppdatere vevkompiser.
