White Fang

 

Okay, so this is the main score or title opening song from the movie “White Fang”.

I strongly recommend you listening to it, cause it is just so damn beautiful.

The song has special meaning to me though, because the movie is one of my absolute favourites as a child. I loved it so much, and now, everytime I hear the first part of the main score I just can’t help but crying with nostalgia!

If you have never watched it, I am not saying you’ll love it. But I think it’s a classic and I think most people will enjoy it. Especially if you, like me, love animals or wolves.

Anyway, at least enjoy the beutiful music.

Studying

I am happy to say that I have passed my very first exam as a radiography student! My first exam was a written one about physiology and anatomy, and older students say that it is the hardest one. If you pass this one, you’ll get through the education. Phew!

That said, we are now studying some new stuff and where I found anatomy and physiology really interesting, the stuff we have now is so boring! I don’t understand half of what I am reading because it’s just so boring. And the lesson aren’t really that different. The topic we are on right now is medical imaging. I though that would be somewhat interesting. But it’s so not. It’s like having physics and chemistry again which was the two subjects in the Gymnasium (sort of High School), that I hated the most!

Later on we will be taught pathology which should be much more interesting. Pathology is studying and diagnosing diseases in case you didn’t know. THAT I’ll be looking forward to!

Other things to say about my life is that I have become the Godmother of my little niece which I am very honoured to be. And also, there is still a lot of drama in my class, and the drama queen seems to be mad at me a bit at the moment. But oh well, we had a little facebook talking and I think we are back to being friends so all should be good.

Pottermore

If you don’t know it yet you’ll know now. I am a HUGE Harry Potter fan, and as soon as you could become a Pottermore beta user, I found “the magic quill” and came in. But now Pottermore is open to all!
If you don’t know what Pottermore is, here’s a sneak peak video:

If you don’t think this is a sufficient explanation here’s what I think of Pottermore.

Pottermore lets you go through all the chapters of the book, with some amazing artwork to each chapter. At the moment only book 1 is available. As you go through the chapters you’ll find different things and sometimes there will be stuff like information about characters that JK Rowling haven’t told before. Here I can mention Professor McGonagall’s background story. You can also do a little bit of interacting with other students, and of course you’ll get sorted into a house and you’ll have the chance to compete for the world cup.

The people I think will enjoy Pottermore the most, is people who consider themselves big Harry Potter fans. Fans of the movie will probably enjoy the site too, but I think that those inert Harry Potter fans will enjoy it the most.

Pogo remixes

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Pogo does awesome remixes! I especially enjoy his Disney and Pixar remixes!

Anyway I just wanted to share with you a new remix of his, which is a remix done by using music and sounds from the Pixar movie “Monters Inc.”

The Hunger Games

I do not own this picture. Is only used for commercial use.

Yesterday I went to the cinema to watch “The Hunger Games”. I have previously read the book, and my anticipation and expectations for this movie was really high! Luckily it was just as amazing as I though it would be. When I first read the book I though it would be a movie that could be done really well and would be fantastic or it would be a complete and utter fiasco. I am happy to say that I think this movie is more like the first scenario than the last. The actors in this movie did such an amazing job and also the scenes were incredibly made. One of the things I really love about this movie is that I think it got all the important parts of book. In many book-movie translations they leave such a big amount of (sometimes) important pieces of the book, but I don’t think this one did. I like the way the movie was able to portray the surreal situation that Katniss and Peeta are in, but also how the relationship between the Hunger Games tributes and the people of the capitol is not entirely a good vs. bad relationship. The people from the Capitol like Effie and Cinna are not bad people, even though they support and basically drags children into a game where they kill each other. This reflects well on today. People like myself, who has grown up under great conditions, meaning being starved (or even hungry for long), and always having clothes and getting an education etceteras are not bad people. And yet many of us do only very little or nothing at all to help some of the many people in the world that starve or are persecuted or anything alike.

I think both the book and the movie is doing a brilliant job, showing both the immorality of the world we live in ourselves, but it also shows how the world is not divided into just good and evil.

In truth this movie and the book has so many aspects that are so important and relevant to us. But why don’t you see the movie for yourself or read the book? I promise after you’re done the book/movie will stay in your mind and heart for quite some time.

A bit of exam anxiety and honours!

My exam in anatomy and physiology is practically just around the corner. To be more precise it’s on Friday the thirteenth. Not exactly the best date ever to go to an exam! In the beginning I thought it was terrible that in 10 weeks we had to learn the latin names of all the 206 bones in out body. But that I actually can. It turns out there is SO much more we have to learn. After these first 10 weeks we are supposed to be able to name every bone in the body in latin, and also point out different significant spots on almost every one of these bones, and be able to spell the latin name of these spots. Further more, there are a lot of organs which names we should also know in latin. And here there is also different important structures we should be able to name and we should be able to explain how it works. There are also some muscles we should know the latin names of and be able to say where is placed, and then comes about 50 different arteries and veins, and tomorrow our teacher will tell us about the nerve system, which we should also be able to explain, plus know some of their latin names and be able to point them out on pictures!

 

THAT IS INSANE!!!!!

So I am starting to be quite afraid of failing this class. If I do I have to more goes later on, but that would just be SO inconvenient!

 

But today I also want to tell about something that happened today that made me very happy. My little niece who is almost 2 months old now, will be baptised real soon. Today my sister and her boyfriend (father of my niece) asked me to be my little niece’s godmother. I feel so honoured that they asked me to be her godmother. It means a lot to me even though I know it’s more of a technicality. I gotta say I was a little touched :)

On a happier note

I realise my last two blog entries have been rather negative. It almost sound like my life is annoying at the moment but it really isn’t at all! My life is so great!

This weekend one of my very best friends came to visit me and it was so nice! We did what we do best – which is having a real good time! I love that we can just sit, and do really nerdy things with each other, and still we just have an awesome time! And I am so happy for the birthday present she gave me, which is a framed illustration that she did herself, and I also love the “housewarming” gift she had made me, which is a pillow with a print she has created, though the pillow was sewn together by her mom. That is one of the many benefits of having a very creative friend, you get really creative and unique things! Which is awesome!

I have also decided that I wanna be more aware of what I eat. Not because I want to lose weight (though I definitely wouldn’t mind losing quite a bit of weight!), but mostly because I know it will make me feel better about myself, and maybe give me more energy in my everyday life.

I feel like I am on my way to achieve some of the things that I have set out to do with my life. And my confidence is just great! So though my few last blog entries have been pretty negative, I actually really love my life!

I AM SO MAD!

Hey you, maybe you remember my last blog entry about studying and stuff? Remember how I said that the class seemed really nice and all? Yeah, I guess that is true to some extent but OMFG I can’t remember the last time I’ve been in a class where there was so much DRAMA! I’ve been studying for about 6 weeks now, and already there is all this drama and tension between so many people! I talked about some of the guys being quite immature and all, and that is still true but it ain’t that bad. The person who was the worst has cooled down a lot and is behaving much better. No, most of the problem seems to come from this one girl. I have been talking to her quite a lot, and she can be really nice, but GOD I don’t think I have ever met a person who would judge and be that angry at people for something that has NOTHING to do with her whatsoever! She is the same person who won’t stop bothering me about getting together to all these social events. And I wanted to go but had other plans those dates. And now she tells me, that I am not social and boring and not spontaneous. The last one is true, I am not very spontaneous, but I can’t see what it has to do with her? And today she’s been really mean to one of the guys, because he couldn’t come to this social thing at another girl’s house this weekend. And I can’t see why the fuck she would get mad at him for not coming. It is completely his choice whether or not he doesn’t want to come! And believe me he is not the only one he is bothering. Yesterday she kept bugging me for not coming. But hey, one of my best friends is coming over this weekend, to see my apartment for the first time ever, and neither of us felt like partying, because non of us can afford alcohol at the moment, and we don’t really have any way to get there. And so I told this girl, but MAN she just won’t take no for an answer! I cannot see why she even cares! Lots of other people are coming, and it’s not even her party! She has already pissed three other people off! She is really good at confronting people about certain issues, issues that are important to confront people with, but she does NOT know where the line is!

I haven’t really talked to her about how much that actually pisses me off yet, because whenever she started all her bullshit about me not being social I have just listened for a bit, then told her that I didn’t see it that way, and otherwise just ignored her. But I think it has come to an extend where she needs to be told, because she is being really mean and very personal to some people. She has been mean to people on the group wall of our class on facebook, which is as inappropriate as it gets! It’s just spiteful and not helping anyone! It only makes everyone really uncomfortable! I could do the same to her, and tell her how everybody talk about her being a real bitch and fake behind her back, but that would be mean and spiteful of me. Instead I am just gonna take a serious talk with her, the next time I see her face to face, without others around…

I really liked her a lot at the beginning, because she has a way of talking to people like she’s known them forever, but once you get too close to her, she’ll turn right around! I am sort of happy that she’ll probably go to another school next year, because I really think it would be that much nicer in class then…

Studying is amazing and people and the answer “no”…

So I’ve been studying radiography for almost 3 weeks now and it’s just the education for me as far as I can tell. We’re learning A LOT of stuff about the human anatomy at the moment, and it’s a bit overwhelming, but it’s incredible how much I’ve already learned. The amazing thing about this way of studying, contra the “gymnasium” (Danish High School sort of), is that what you learn on this education is much more specific. Everything you learn can be applied to the job you’ll hopefully eventually get. So yeah I love this education.

Also, the class I am in seems really really nice. Some of them seems extremely immature though, it’s sometimes like being 15 all over again! But mostly people are just really nice and very social.

BUT, as I’ve mentioned before I am a very outgoing person, but I really do need my personal space in order to be social. And when I was younger I had a lot of problems saying no when people wanted to hang out with me all the time, and it always ended up with me being emotionally exhausted (aka me breaking down crying about everything). Luckily I have become much better at just saying no , and as I’ve become older, people usually just respect it when I say I don’t feel like it. But there is this one person in my class who just won’t take no for an answer. I should probably feel flattered that this person wants to spend so much time with me, but I just think it’s extremely rude and disrespectful, when this person just continues saying “Now I think you’re boring, come on, it could be fun! We could do this and that”. And then I say, “Yeah, sounds awesome, but not today cause I don’t feel like it”. And then the person just goes on and on and on forever! I mean isn’t that just rude? Respect it when I say “no”! It’s not personal, and it’s not because I don’t want to do it, it’s just because I don’t feel like it, so why can’t this person just accept and respect it?

It sort of drives me mad when people can’t take no for an answer! I don’t want to keep explaining my self all the time!

Becoming an aunt and starting school

Two days ago my sister gave birth to a beautiful little baby girl. I am so happy to finally meet her!

Her name is Silje and I love her so much already. The minute I saw her I started crying because I was so happy. I will try to be the best aunt to her in world. A baby is just a miracle. I mean she started out as just a tiny little egg inside my sister, and a puny sperm cell from my sister’s boyfriend. And then – BAM – nine months has passed and a real tiny human being is in the world. She is just perfect! And it is so miraculous! It is a wonder to me how such a tiny little thing can actually “work” and live and be a human! Not that doubt her humanity of course haha! But it is just amazing!

Anyway, as you can probably tell I am very very proud to have become an aunt!

But that is not all the excitement for me this month! Tomorrow I start on my new education to become a radiographer! Which is pretty scary and exciting at the same time! I am mostly worried about whether or not it’s the right education for me. I don’t doubt that I will be able to finish the education but I am just worried about the whole group-work part of it all. I am in some ways a very individual person. I am sociable and love spending time with friends and families, and making new friends, but when it comes to school I much prefer working alone. I do function well in group work, I am very versatile in that way. But if I’d have to work in groups all the time I swear I’d go nuts! So I am a bit worried, because I don’t know how much of the time I’ll have to spend on doing group work.

Also in 1 week and a half I am moving out! The place where I am going to study radiography is in a city that is a 2,5 hour drive from where I live with my parents. And moving out it also a very scary and exciting thing! Just yesterday I went to see the “kollegium” (sort of like a college campus) where I am moving to. It seemed really nice! The people living there seems to be some very social and outgoing people which I think is awesome! I like the fact that I have my own apartment where I can be myself, but if I feel like being social I can just go outside of my door and a bunch of young people will be there to hang out. That is awesome! But I think it’s scary to move out. I am incredibly worried that I won’t be able to just live by myself. It’s a whole new bunch of responsibilities that I’ll have to take care of and I have no clue as to how it will be to have them on my shoulders. Luckily my parents are the most supportive parents in the whole world, so I guess I’ll be okay no matter what happens.
