Fucking Maths!

I don't believe it!

We've just had our first maths lesson with mixed classes, and I definitely ended up in the lowest of the lowest!


Not to diss anyone, but I must have done a real lowsy job on that test we did to see what level we were on, and my class is...well, as I said, not the best one....


The teacher is just hopeless for one thing, she gave us these really easy tasks and I spent the whole hour n' a half playing games on my mobile.


On Monday I went out with Maddie, to discover how bad my phone camera works in the dark.

Maddie and Sun go Old School!


These Killer shoes look like a colder version of mine! I want!

I can't believe I didn't write about this earlier, but I've found this fantastic website with all these killer dress up games!

Ok I know I sound like a barbie commersial, but it's true! It's really wicked!
Here are some things I made:






You must remeber that these have been made over a long period of time, so I do have a life!

Cowboy Kate & other stories...

I went to visit my grandparents house today,where I ate a lovely lunch and had a nice cup of tea.
My grandmother knows how to spoil you...
anyway, my grandfather(Ken) has a large selection of books, and every single time I come to their place he has this one line he always says: "You know, I have so many books, and you can come over any time you like and have a look at them."
I noticed he had a book on Ken Russel,so I went over to look at it since Russel was the director of "Tommy".
I asked my grandfather if he happened to have any books on David Bailey.
He started looking through his books and said he knew he had one somewhere, but wondered why I wanted a book about David Bailey, and I told him that I'm really into the sixties, and that I like his photographs.
"The sixties!? You're really into the sixties!? We'll I have LOTS of books on the sixties!" He said and went in to another room full of books.
He pulled out a huge book called: "Cowboy Kate and Other Stories" by Sam Haskins.

So that was an unnecessarily long story about how I borrowed this killer book from him so I could make some scans of it, 'cause the pictures are really cool, and sooo 60's!
I've still got it, but I can't be bothered to scan them, so I looked them up on the internet.


Anyway, here's a little excerpt from the book, you'll find the rest on http://www.haskins.com/CbyKate/Kate_p01.html

















I was hoping they would be a little bigger, but as I said, you can visit the website and get the whole story;)

More cars and a bike...

I know it's kind of masculine(or just plain weird) to keep publishing pictures of cars all the time, but I just keep seeing really nice cars everywhere, and I want to share my love for them.
            
This first red one, all my friends hated, but I thought it was really sweet! I'd love to drive around in one of those!!
       
Here's a white..um...bubble? That's what we call it in norwegian anyway... f.l Maren, Amanda and Anje:-)


  This is Nissa on his way from our school trip today. He's a grumpy sod....:-p

Goodbye Isa!

So now you're actually leaving...


You're going off to France, to follow your dream and to come home in three years time speaking french fluently.
You selfish girl!


Did it never occur to that you're leaving the rest of us behind?
There won't be any more sleep overs where you and I stay up until four o'clock having intense conversations.
Who will I go to now that you're gone and there's no one left to listen patiently to my opinions on the Who, the world and other things that engage me?



That's your thing Isa, you don't judge people for who they are, but you have strong opinions about everything, and I hope you'll never change that.


I know I haven't been the best to keep contact the last year, and I regret that I haven't taken my chance to hang out with you more often.
So there's goodbye to ten years of memories, both sad and happy and some even hystercally funny. I hope you get a lovely stay in France, and that you find lots of new friends!
An good luck with you-know-what;)
Love you loads and can't wait to see you again this Christmas!

Love Sunniva<3


Hope it's alright that I borrowed your pictures:D

the Positives!


After Magnus' endless nagging(which included sending me threatening emails every second hour for a week) I finally decided to write a post about his super band the Positives!

Let's just start of with a little bio:
The Positives is a Bergen-based rock n' roll group, put together by four boys.
Magnus(who is one of my best friends, and the best guitarist I know) plays the guitar as you may have figured, and sings backing vocals.
Although Magnus might tell you something else on Myspace, he was born and raised in Bergen(with exeptions of a few years in Oslo) and still lives with his parents and his hot little brother Åsmund.
I don't know much about the other four members, but I'll tell you that Anders sings lead vocal and plays the guitar,
Torgrim plays the drums and
Jens plays the bass.
Anders is really cool, and likes almost every band I like, including the Monkees(respect!)!

The Positives have only posted one song on their myspace page so far, but they're going to start recording in not long, as they won a competition.(can't be bothered to explain it...)
The one song they have on MySpace is a very catchy tune called "Downtown".

I think it's a killer song, although the text is a bit weird:p (lines like: "I ain't puttin' on a dressing gown")

Anyways, other than the fact that they should change their name(there are like a duzzen other bands with that name on MySpace, some are even touring) the Positives is a great band, who plays music the way music(in my opinion) should be played: by four young boys!
Wish you all luck with your upcoming recording session, and hope I get to see you live sometime!!
Sun loves you!

Monday,Monday...

Today was my first taste of Nissen's boring side...
We started the day of with English(not really, but I can't be bothered to talk about our first lesson...) and I actually managed to continuously yawn for an hour and a half, although Christine, Anje and me and a couple of other girls were sent out in the hallway to read on our own.

Then we had our lunch break, and I met up with Oda.
Oda stayed at my place for a sleep over on Saturday, and on Sunday we went down to take some wicked photos in a photo booth... very brat-like, yes.
we also hung out at Blå with Maddie and Anje:)
*Deadend street, deadend street....*
Anyways, today she saw my school for the first time, but to her great disappointment, missed the Hungarian band that was supposed to play.
We agreed to meet after school, so he could come window shopping with me.
Then she had dinner at our place and now she's on her way home I guess...
And so that was my day, and I think I'll be off to write a song about annoying over-the-top-alternative girls...If you catch my drift Anje...

Who Ruined Hip Hop?

I've been watching Mtv today(and yesterday) and they've got this anniversary going.
I think it's 20 years since the first "Yo! Mtv Raps" aired or something.

Anyway, as many other classic rock fans(somehow I feel that's making me sound dull and nerdy...shame!) I was a little sceptical towards the whole HipHop scene, which isn't really that weird when you look at the talentless shit going on these days...

But now I've really grown to respect the HipHop industry a lot! I mean the kind of music they were making back in those days really ment something, and people put more soul into it.

Just look at world famous artists like Rihanna, Timbaland etc.! They make music that most people attract towards (unfortunately) but there is NO soul or heart put into it!

Rihanna doesn't make her own material, and all Timbaland does is add some "boom-thicka-click-thicka-click-click" and that's about it, all his songs sound the same!

But then we have really talented artists who have been at it for a while, like Outkast.... I admire Outkast more than anyone in the HipHop industry.

And there's also Salt n' Pepa! My parents used to play me "Shoop" in the car when I was four, and I still remember it!

All in all, the whole Rap-scene seemed a lot more soulfull and real ten years ago. I hate saying it, 'cause that seemes to be my opinion on a lot of things, but there was juist this original style, where they wore the wackiest outfits, weird hats, and rapped about things that mattered to them.

They didn't stand there like idiots moaning other people's words.

Women earned themselves respect, and didn't let men treat them like bitches and whores, and Queen Latifa proves my point very well there.
I just wish I was back in the time when Rap was new, underground and exiting, and really meant something. HipHop has become too mainstream, and I think that's going to kill it in the end, 'cause they let their artists become braindead manequins, and with lack of talent comes the day people are going to get sick of the same kind of beats played in different songs over and over again...
Long live Old School HipHop!
