fjorten dager til norge and i have a finnish flatmate!

so yep thats it, 14 days until we leave for norway, i cant believe its soooo close!


meg and darrens wedding was so amazing. almost made me rethink my crazy life and try a more traditional one...naa. haha stability would be nice but im too busy being young i guess. maybe someday ill get my act together.
ahh ok also some crazyyy news! haha 2 major things. 1st = norway news.

so just as we were planning to stay at the sentrum pensjonat in the redlight district (marius will be in france then at windells while we are in norway so sadly we wont get to chill with him)...this kid thomas told me he is living in bergen right now and his apartment in oslo is completely vacant. if we want to we can stay there...the office for the tennis courts next door will hold the key for us and it would be just me and lex and elin but thats sooo sick! i think hes going to hook us up when we get to bergen too. also, henrik is going to show us around (he just went to a sick redbull party in oslo last week..apparently redbull wasnt allowed in norway till last week) and one of moes friends who snowboards. sounds good. haha...its going to be quite an adventure, no matter what happens.

ok number two. this storys kinda longer. i got my address in NZ! i am living in a flat with 4 others, co ed of course. its 3 stories, first floor is a living area, 2 couches, flat screen tv, kitchen and dining area. sounds good. 2nd floor is 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. 3rd floor is 3 bedrooms. its about a 15 minute walk to campus, but as close as 5 depending where on campus im going.

anyway i found this girl emily on facebook who lives in unit 12 of the same address i will be living at (im living at 13). she lives there now. we got talking and we actually know someone in colorado, christine. now i met christine because my friend justin from long island (that i met in vt) goes to colorado and knew christine was studying in nz at the same time as me. (you still following? i know christine, who knows emily, because i know justin. emily is in NZ and christine is going when i am) OK so...then emilys flatmate william friended me and started talking to me. we have this friend naoto in common. here is where things get weird...i went to lake tahoe cali to visit justin (how i know christine) and there i saw my friend erica. i was chillin with her and some aussies and kiwis. naoto was one of the kiwis that was there and we shredded and partied together. it turns out my new neighbor, william, went to hs with naoto and flatted with him for 2 years! WHAT! so then my new neighbor also tells me that one of my new flatmates is from finland, haha what are the odds? i talked to her, her name is paula and shes mad nice! we actually know this guy jussi in common...i met him at the us open when he was filming antti and risto, and she went to high school with him! turns out paula has a season pass to cardrona (like me) and she has a car (or rather, will by the time i get there) to get us to the mountain!

so in case you got lost:
i know justin, who knows christine (whos going to nz at the same time as me) who knows emily (who i met online cuz she lives in my complex) who is living with william (who will be my neighbor in nz) who knows naoto who i know from when i visited justin in tahoe. william also knows paula from finland who will be my flatmate who knows jussi who i know from the us open in vermont. small world.

so yeah thats the update! next one might be from or after norway!
