Squee?

I've been playing Batman so much lately. Not a very complicated game, but that's what makes it fun, the abiliy to be superheroic and take down vast amounts of enemies without a single scratch. I do prefer the stealthiness of it though, of any game, I love the feeling of having to hide and be undercover, and such. Shocking I haven't played any of the Thief games yet, but I'll get to it eventually. I'm rambling though, no one cares about my gaming preferences, so instead, just before I head out to work in half an hour or so, it is time for the last of these ones...

Insert some fanfaric music here, imagine fireworks and a whole bundle of celebratory events!

LDR Challenge: Day 30 - Where do you see your future going with her?

This is as simple as the first of these questions, as there is no doubt in my mind. In not too long, next year in fact, we will be living together. Found a place of our own to start our life in. We will go on an adventure throughout all our life, experience the world, everything there is.
We will create our own family, together, who can go on to explore more, all the things we may not have gotten to, and a lot of the things we did. We will always stay by each other, every laughter, every sorrow and heartache, whenever we fight, we will still turn and hug each other, because nothing can tear the care we have for each other away.

I don't see my future anymore, I see ours.

MERRY no wait, way too soon...

Okay, never before has a day been this eventful!
More stuff has happened than I even dreamed of, it's a long story, I suppose.
I have yet to write it down, but I do hope you will stick with me throughout all of this!

I'm gonna let you in on a little secret.
You can't tell anyone, only you who are reading this will ever know!
It all began when I was very young and my mum brought me home a teddy bear!
I don't remember the name of said bear, but...

I give up, I can't do this, I was planning a very elaborate joke, but it just seems to be much too much effort to put into something as silly as this!
I'm very sorry, I know you were all looking forward to this story.

Tell you what, there might be something we can do!
If you'll all, or anyone, or none even, leave a comment I might just tell you further what happens!
You're really missing out, though.
It'd involve hookers and blackjack and.. I don't remember how it goes to be honest, too long since I watched that show.

It's up to you however.
Although I'm done now, I know I haven't commited to this the way I should've!
There's much more left to be said.
But just look at the second word in each paragraph. Sorry...

LDR Challenge: Day 29 - When will you see her next?

Nearing the end of this now. Tomorrow is the last day. It's going to be a bit werid, I actually feel like I've rushed through this way too fast. Because I have actually enjoyed it! Being able to put down on paper what I think about every day, about her, with her. It has truly been a wonderful journey from the first time we talked, more than a year ago now, it's crazy! I never saw my life going like this, but I love this woman, I am eternally grateful for her for entering my life when she did! Thank you!

I will hopefully see her on Skype soon, when is hard to say, but next time we will meet, is going to be in December, some days before the 24th so she will join our family in all it's traditions and I hope it won't scare her off! It's not too bad, and there's lotsa food, so I suppose we will do just fine! This is going to be the greatest Christmas (technially yule, but who gives a rat) I have ever had! December can't come fast enough!

Le cook!

I made dinner today, proper. Well, sort of, but I have definitely improved my skills after Nen came into my life, adding much more flavour to everything without adding time, which is good, because I still find cooking to be dreary and wasting my time. But the better tasting food is worth it!

What have I done today, you ask? I've been playing The Stanley Parable, and Arkham Asylum. First one's actually more fun, I quite litterally laughed while playing it! Second one is reminding me of first time I played it, so that's good too! I also went for a drive to get cheap petrol, after advice from my dad! I also completed Knock-Knock, got the good ending too, even though I don't know if the girl is freakier than the monster actually!

LDR Challenge: Day 28 - If you could have her with you physically for the next 5 hours, what would you do?

Do I really need to answer this one? Aside from the obvious, we'd eat something amazing, munch on Ben&Jerry's, put a movie on and not watch it, talk, tell her how much I love her and how special she is, and cuddle in bed.

Markiplier Challenge: Day 3 - What was the video / moment that made you subscribe?

Look back at the other 2 days for this one, because this is just getting silly by now!

~ Sunflake

Falling asleep!

Alright, it's.. a bit more than hour too late, but I am pushing through and will deliver to my loyal fans, all.. (number) of you! I'm dead tired, so this is just going to be a short one, then I'll be right into dream land! Leggo!

LDR Challenge: Day 27 - If you the money/time/connections/whatever to giver any gift in the world, what would it be? 

What an awfully long question! Well now.. I would give her a house! The biggest mansion imaginable, no, but the perfect house in her eyes! That's what I want to give her someday! Because she deserves to live somewhere wonderful when she gets here and not in my itty bitty flat as during summer! That, or just to spend all the time in the world with her, not missing a second, but the other one is more realistic!

Btw, I looked, I don't think you did this day? Or maybe I just can't find it...

Markiplier Challenge: Day 2 - First video you watched?

I think I answered this yesterday. But it was either his Amnesia reaction, or the first part of his Amnesia playlist.

Sweet dreams!

All new challenge!

Happy november! Not Movember, no shave november, just plain ol' November. We can't forget that either! Even if it is for a good cause!
Tomorrow is going to be a long day probably, gonna be at the stream for most of the time, or 'til I get bored or tired of it, since that does happen. Yep, even he cannot hold my interest for an eternity!

I had leftover pizza today. And fries, but they were all soggy and cold and really not worth anything so I wasted those, but it was still worth it, because we had a Skype date last night! It was SO nice, actually eating together since that's not really something we can do. So doing that just meant so much to me! More than I know how to express, I am pretty bad when it comes to that stuff, but I would do that every night if I had the opportunity!

LDR Challenge: Day 26 - Sweetest thing she has done for you?

This is impossible, there are so many things! She came and stayed with me for 6½ weeks, that is hard to top, she took care of me and my place the entire time, she even massages me. The best thing however is the look on the future she has given me, the security of knowing what I want out of my life. Everyday, she turns into the best day of my life! That is what I like about her!

BUT WAIT!!!

There's more...

This is mainly something I'm starting now, just so I won't stop blogging as soon as I've finished the previous one. Got to stay in the game!

Markiplier Challenge: Day 1 - How and when did you find the Markiplier channel?

About a year ago, and maybe a few weeks, I remember it was in October because he was doing his "Month of Horror" thing on Twitch.
But I had recently purchased Amnesia, heard a lot about it, so decided to try it out myself and it was so tremendously terrifying that I had to stop so often, and I then watched a guy on YouTube play it too, up 'til the point I was at.
Then I saw Mark's reaction as suggested I believe, so watched it, laughed, starting watching his LP of it. And then when I saw a video of him sobbing over a fanmade thank you video I just found him to seem so genuine that I actually followed him.
This is the first time I ever actively used YouTube and since then I've just gotten addicted to it! Rambling a bit much here, but that is basically it. Mid-late October, through his Amnesia reaction video!

Edit: This actively answered day 2 and 3 as well, didn't mean to do that, but I'm not that bothered by it!

<3 I love you, Nennah <3

I eated pizza!

Tonight was a lovely evening! Had a Skype dinner date with Nennah, that was quite fun, although I had just had a bowl of popcorn so I couldn't even eat one entire pizza, a bit sad I admit! I also had fries, by force of not delivering under a certain price, and Just Eat was maintaining their servers so had to order from the place's website which was fine, but mildly annoying to me.
It all worked out, and I think we had a great evening, much fun, I love skyping with her, actually feels like we're together! It's just the best thing ever!
The weekend is going to be good, tough to sit through most of a 25 hour livestream probably, but at least we will be able to talk all day long!

Now before I hit the sack, I suppose we need one thing to do!

LDR Challenge: Day 25 - One thing that she does that pisses you off?

Hmm, I remember thinking about this one when she did it. I had something on my mind back then that really bugged me, but I can't figure out at all what it was so probably not so much an issue anymore! I suppose the hardest part, not really pissing me off though, but when I have to do something I can't find out if she's annoyed or not at me, or if it's just my own insecurities acting up. But I think that's all there really is, so not anything major. Because she's sweet! Now I bid you all.. A good night!

CONGRUTALIONS!

So today Markiplier reaches his very major goal of 1 million subscribers! I remember about a year ago, almost to the day, I saw his reaction to his mod's 20K sub video, sobbing, which made me subscribe, since he was such a pussy genuine, emotional guy! So I hit the button and started watching, for the first time actually using YouTube, before that I never really gave shit about that site, but now I am more active than I'd ever imagined being!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bAOAik0Z87w - Mods reaction! Not the one that made him cry, new one, mocking him, it's fun!

I miss my sweetheart though! I want to be with her, I do as much I can for her, from here, but I wish to look into her eyes, tell her I love her, kiss her, laugh together 'til our bellies hurt! I can't wait for december to come, I am really looking forward to christmas this year, since I will be spending it with my loved one! I am so curious what she'll think of all the dumb traditions we have, but I am way too happy that she'll be with us!

I still struggle to eat the candy I've gotten from her and her babysister, since I love having something from them with me, but I imagine they'd get mad at me for not munching it down! They're the greatest people you can find on this planet!

LDR Challenge: Day 24 - Describe her physically and emotionally/personality-wise.

Alright, she is the most beautiful I have come across! She has big, brown eyes, that shine up whenever she smiles, the cutest smile, both her happy and shy ones. She has a sidecut, but hopefully she'll soon be getting her natural curls back which I am excited about! She's slightly taller than me, but I can float when around her, so it's not something we care about!

She's also really caring, sacrificing herself (a bit too much) to please others, she can get overwhelmed, but always get up again, and I like to think I help a little with that too. She has a great sense of humour, and she only wishes to make other people happy! I hope you'll stay happy too, liefje! <3

MUCH DOGE, WOW, SO FUR, EARS SO POINT!

I've finally went back to my own place now, after spending the first few days with my parents. It's weird being back here, so empty, but I might get used to it at some point again. For now it's just temporary until I can live with the one I want to!

Seeing as nothing has happened today, and I'm fairly close to being into tomorrow, so I am gonna get straight to the important part of this one!

LDR Challenge: Day 23 - Do you have a song?

YES!!!


This is one of Nennah's favorite bands, I didn't really know of them before I met her, but after I heard this song I just really enjoyed it! And as I still get butterflies every single time I see her, we have chosen this to be our own!

Welcome back to work!

G'evening y'all! Or day, or morning, night, whichever you prefer, I am really not that picky when it comes to greetings. That is, unless, someone had said 'good morning' this morning, because it sure as heck wasn't! I had nearly just woke up when I get a call from my boss, telling me that one guy is sick, and the other 6am employee was impossible to get a hold of. My boss lives more than an hour away so I was pretty much the only option if the store could be opened on time, still opened 30 minutes late, probably pissed off a bunch of people off, but as I was the only one there, couldn't be helped. It all turned out alright in the end, but damn, that was definitely right back to everyday after a holiday! Rough start, hopefully it'll be more as usual the rest of the week!

We have had a hurricane today, the one that hit Britain and also the Netherlands, it had calmed down quite a bit before we got affected by it, but still managed to blow bins unto the roads, knock over trees, and in western Denmark it was much harsher I believe, we got off easy over here. I could feel the car shake when driving home from work, and most of the intersections were without power. I got back home to my parents safely though, I'm not dead, just clarifying that right away!

LDR Challenge: Day 22 - Share something cute.

When Nen and I go to sleep, or if we're lying in the couch and just relaxing, and I sing for her, even with my most horrible voice, makes her fall asleep, and I just find that so darn adorable! I love to hear her breathing start getting more regular. And then fall asleep while listening to her.

Just got not-home

So I'm back. I've been gone for the past week's time, I've been home! I miss being home already, and I only just got back today! I woke up this morning, next to Nen, and now I'm in bed without her. It just doesn't feel right. I don't like being away from her, she makes me way too happy for me to be apart from her! It's not for long, then we will see each other again, and come July there will be no more of this "goodbye" business, only goodnight!

The entirety of last week was spent with her, I really enjoy being there, doing everyday stuff, but with her nothing seems like a chore, it's all enjoyable, fun, and I just find that life seems brighter when I hold her hand as we walk through the rain. I can really tell the difference in myself from last time I was there too. I am more at peace with myself, at ease around other people speaking gibberish (to my ears), around the dogs, I really like them a lot, I could spend hours doing nothing but play with those mutts, and just scratch their necks, pet them, they're amazing!

It's getting late, but of course I am going to go right back at it, so here goes...

LDR Challenge: Day 21 - Give us a little insight (as much as you're comfortable) on your sex life.

Oh, it's this day is it? Ha, yeah, alright... We're perfect for each other!

The Stanley Parable

Tomorrow... Tomorrow I am gonna be in the arms of my sweetheart again, hold her in mine! I miss her even more, the closer we get to being together again. I just want to never let go of her again when I'm there! This coming week will be the best week of my life so far, only to be overtaken by the next time we will be together!
I am at my parents now, will be driven to the airport tomorrow morning! I can't wait 'til I sit in the plane, it's so relaxing to finally know I am now truly underway to be with her!
There's so much I was thinking about during this day, now I've completely forgot it all, so oh well...

LDR Challenge: Day 15 *REVISITED* - What is your favourite love song?

Driving to my parents today, a song came on, that I had to add to this!

Lifehouse - Hanging by a Moment, I have loved this song as long as I've known it!

She was probably afraid I'd pick 3 of a Kind - Babycakes, but no, not that!

LDR Challenge: Day 20 - Is there something you regret?

Wauh... This, yeah, there is! I regret every time I choose myself over her. Whenever I don't see that she needs me, and instead I get annoyed feeling like she is egocentric when the fault is on me. I am sorry for any time I didn't see past the tip of my own nose! I hope you can forgive me for having been blind to when you need me.

If only you were here!

So I... am an idiot! That's right, this guy sitting here, he is just so damn dumb! It gets even worse! Because my job offers it's employees a christmas present! This is great, and a few years ago they started giving you the choice of what you want, because some people might not need a breadbasket all that much, I sure didn't, but it's come in handy now and then, last time for sausages, I know, that's a bit strange, but I work with what I got! Most of my friends hate my kitchen since I don't have half the tools they need, but I just improvise something up that makes it work!

Anyway! On with it, I had been making a big deal out of getting this information out to all in our store, how to do it, and in what timespan, last day was yesterday, and guess who today realised he forgot! Yup, so I did it today, and hopefully they'll still accept my choice, or I might get a cutting board and breadknife or... Salad bowl and tonsils.. tonsils? *cough*utensils*cough*Those.. salad spoon/fork thingie. Don't judge me. Please...

LDR Challenge: Day 19 - I know there's not one thing, but choose one of your favourite things to hear her say.

That was the longest question yet (technially not a question, I am aware), I almost gave up typing it halfway through!
Ik hou van je. Because, to me, those words means more when said in your own language than in English. I can use "I love you" just casually to say something, without it having immense depth, but in Danish I feel so much more behind it! And the same with Dutch, when I hear her say it!
My absolute favourite, I would say is whenever she says "someday we'll be together" because I am looking more forward to that, than anything before!

*Title here*

Sometimes I am such an idiot. Really. I try to do the best I can, but I often make mistakes, and repeat them again, I should at least learn from them, but I keep doing the same dumb things, so for everything I'm constantly messing up on, I am sorry! It's not my intent, I just don't always think things through, or realise before someone points it out to me. It's pretty dumb, but I just hope that I do more good to make up for the times I mess it up.

I messed up. Not badly, this is my own regret, since my dinner consisted of mini pancakes instead of the pasta I had dreamt up I had, cuz opening my fridge before, revealed it to be very much empty! So I got to buy some dinner tomorrow before I head home or I'll be living off air, or candy, neither which is very good for me!

I got my Markiplier's Heroes t-shirt today! It is extremely comfy, fits very well and feels very good to the touch! I will wear that often when going places just to see if anyone recognises it, as I am aware some more people here watches those videos of his! In case you missed it somehow, I don't know how you would've, here it is!

Buying this helped give money to a charity focusing on getting more shelters for animals to prevent healthy ones from being put down!

LDR Challenge: Day 18 - Post a picture of the two of you together.

Starting to give orders now, are you? Well, I have a couple of pictures, so let me see... This one!


Seriously, I am always being told I don't smile enough, but I make up for it every 100th picture or so, by overdoing it by far! This is from a small rescue zoo in Denmark, one of the first places we went together while she was here! There were some very narcistic peacocks here, and awesome looking snakes! And a weird cow which my dad combed!

(If I managed to RickRoll anyone a couple of days back, I'm a happy guy! I even like the song!)

Long walks in the rain

I love autumn. Or fall if you prefer. The colours, as most people enjoy, aren't actually why I like this season the most. 
It's the storms. 
The winds, the rain, it's the best way to clear your mind. I used to be walking in the most stormy evenings when I was younger, I never went for walks otherwise. 
Put melancholic music in my ears, and for hours I would just walk around and let my thoughts fly. It didn't cheer me up as such, but it helped me deal with my thoughts, get them in order.
I just love the way the air smells during those evenings, it's silly that I prefer that to walk in that to in the sun. But I can never get enough of it, so few other people, it's just the best way to be by yourself!

LDR Challenge: Day 17 - Favourite love quote?

When you stare long enough into the abyss... No wait, this one isn't about love at all! Let me get a second take on that!

Honestly, I don't really know such quotes, nothing that I can think of, but reading some, this one made me smile!

You make me understand how wonderful it is for little lizards when they find that one special rock that's perfect for sunning themselves on. You make me lizard-happy.

A New Beginning!

Today I was with my parents down in the southern part of Zealand to look at a house.

This house!

It is nothing short of amazing! It's not too expensive, everything is in working order, it has a nearly brand new kitchen with all included, a huge basement, a big garden. Just everything we could possibly hope and wish for! The garden is even fenced in as to have dogs run around in it, as the current owners had dogs while living there, which works out great since we'll be bringing 2 big dogs there!

They've been a bit odd though, putting carpets in the bathrooms, but they come off easily, and a normal floor underneath, that's the weirdest idea I've seen! Easy fix, all I need is for the bank to accept a loan and then get my current place sold. So I'll already begin now to get done what needs to be done in order to sell such a place as this!

I can't wait to start my life in a big house, and when my sweetheart moves here too, I'll feel like I'm home!


LDR Challenge: Day 16 - Favourite love movie?

As everyone who's ever spoken to me about movies know, my knowledge in movies, and the amount I've seen is vast! Or maybe that's the wrong word, I think the word I'm looking for is... Absent, I've seen so few of the movies everyone consideres must-sees. It's always been like that! And love movies aren't exactly what I am most familar with either. But I'll give it some thought, look through my collection and lists of movies I've seen, because nothing pops to mind. Hmm...

So as I thought I have no love movies. I am pretty sure a romantic comedy of some sort will be what I'll end up going with, but I can't really pick anything as my favourite I suppose. I like 10 Things I Hate about You, but I can't really claim to call that a favourite movie of mine, I am really lost at this question. I like Corpse Bride. Can I pick Corpse Bride? Because then I will go with that one! It's the best I can come up with. Yeah... That'll have to do!

Check out my good friend, playing his bass over lovely music!

Someone Special

I am going to look at the most amazing house tomorrow! My dad'll come with me, mum too if she's feeling well, I hope it's as awesome inside as from out!

LDR Challenge: Day 15 - Favourite love song?

This could be sooo many songs, but the first band that popped into my mind was Poets of the Fall and the first song...



And she's here to write her name
On my skin with kisses in the rain
Hold my head and ease my pain
In a world that's gone insane...

fredag den 11. oktober 2013

I ship us!

I'm going to see a couple of good friends of mine today, and we'll make "svensk pølseret", and watch lame action movies and most importantly, The Expendables 2, because we saw 1 last time, and it was fricken awesome! I also just bought a game, I think I ended up with... Surgeon Simulator, I wanted Worms, but they were too old, but I did since GOG gave away free Witcher games with it, so might as well, it's a good game!

My friend has her 25th birthday today, I don't believe she reads this however, but happy birthday to you none the less! And you too, if it's your birthday today as well!

I also need to shave my hair again, it's getting.. Well, nothing, but I should really try to keep it down all the time instead!

Two weeks into it now... In a week I will by now, according to plan have landed in Holland!

LDR Challenge: Day 14 - Describe a moment you had with her last time you were together.

There was many! I liked every single one of them, whenever we spent time together seeing or doing something beautiful. Walking around looking at old and expensive cars, walking in the forest and spotting deers, which I had never seen in that forest before! But the one thing that'll stand out is one evening, we were just standing in the kitchen talking while the sunset, and the sky became the most beautiful colours! We were just standing there, looking at it, smiling, and I just felt how lucky I am to be experiencing such a moment with the girl I am meant to spend my life with! I'd have popped the question right there if I had what I needed to do that! Some day... I love you Nennah <3

Yours always

Did my dishes!

I finally did my dishes today! Most of them at least, have put the last few to soak, and the stuff I used tonight too, since I also cooked dinner for once, I've been on top of everything today it seems! Must be that waking up at 5am, it just boosts your energy throughout the entire day... Okay, maybe that's not it, probably definitely not why, I was just tired of looking at that mess! Still have to go refund my bottles, I have a bajillion of them! Or at least, like... 30ish... Which is close to a bajillion, you can't deny that!

On with it, day 13...

LDR Challenge: Day 13 - What do you think is the hardest thing about distance?

Nothing isn't hard about distance! I never used to think they could work until I met Nennah. She's made me believe that with enough effort, the distance isn't an obstacle, it's only part of strengthening the love between you! It's hard to come home to an empty house, when all you want is the chance to relax in her arms. It's tough, so fucking tough, to not be able to hold her, hug her and comfort her when she needs it, and when I need her! It's hard not being able to just take a short trip and be able to kiss her, spend time with her, invite her out. Everything needs to be concentrated in the short time we have together! It's tough waking up everyday, and the first thing in my mind is how much I miss her next to me, kiss her good morning and tell her I love her. It's hard... not being able to do anything together, but always by yourself, I can't wait 'til everything I do, we do!

Thank you for sticking with me honey, you are the stars to me!

Deeeeet er risengrød!

I've been eating rice pudding these past days. Well, today, and yesterday, since I was starving after coming home from work last night! Good news though, I've got a 6-14 hour shift thursdays now, so I'll be home 2 hours earlier, which should mean I'd get about 2 hours more time to talk to the sweet one! I'm happy with that! I'd always rather meet in early and be off before late too!

I keep opening my mail just to look at my flight tickets too! friday 18th, 11.35 I should be landing in Schipol, now you know baby, sorry for making you skip school, I'll find my way alone if need be! All the way 'til the 27th, this sounds like such a long time, but the reality of it is that it'll just go by much too quick

Let us get on with it now, so...

LDR Challenge: Day 12 - How would you define love?

This... This is a damn tricky one! Defining love? I'm not sure how to go about this, I think... When you have someone that you are willing to do everything for, sacrifice everything for, just to give this person a moment of bliss, with no regard for yourself. And when doing this, makes you happy too, because all you need is for this person to feel happy! When nothing ever faces you so badly, that this person can't make you see the light, the hope, bring you back up, when you have someone, who you feel like you owe the world. Thinking about the future, and it's not just yours anymore, it's both of you, there isn't any "I" anymore.

Or maybe it's really simple - Love is... our story.

I miss you!

LDR Challenge: Day 11 - Pick one thing you miss and describe it.

I miss the summer when Nennah was here! To wake up every day besides her, kissing her good morning, she's the most beautiful when she just woke up, messy hair, sleepy eyes, but I fall more in love with her every time I see her there next to me! I miss living with her. She was perfect, she cared for me, our place, let me have something, someone, to get home to! I'm treasuring each day I get with her, and I'll continue once we've found our house to live in! I look forward to living a full life together with my soulmate, and it sucks being apart from her, when all I want, need, is to see her when I open my eyes in the morning!

Ik hou van je, liefje! <3

Cream cheese with licorice

First off, let me apologize for not blogging yesterday. I was in bed when I got reminded, half asleep, wouldn't get it done, and I prefer to not live my life around this, more of a enjoyment thing to do, not a chore. But to make it up to you, I will do two, you heard right, two challenges! Guess it isn't really making it up, since we'd have been at the same point had I done it last night. 

So what have I been up to lately? Well, saturday was a nice day, enjoyable evening until my car started behaving strange, but it does seem to be fixed now, I've yet to test it out, but I believe it is working smoothly once more. 
I went to my parents' house on Sunday to get dinner, my dad had chopped meat himself, and it was good, very filling and tasty. My sister was there too, just for the food, then she had to go again, but she does come here a lot which is nice. And it is always nice to visit my folks, so I do it quite often!

Friday, not the one we had, but the next one, I'll get some friends over, and we'll have a guy's night out in. We aren't exactly the going out type. We're gonna watch old school action movies, actually we'll be watching The Expendables 2, but the first one was awesome, so we'll continue the success! Svensk pølseret is the dish to be made! It's nothing to do with Sweden though, purely Danish dish. It's damn good! 

LDR Challenge: Day 9 - Favourite thing she has given me?

She gave me a reason to wake up in the morning, to get out of bed, to do something, to gain accomplishments, to make her proud. She's given me courage to be myself around other people, to speak my mind, and not be worried how others percieve me. She's given me the best feeling I have ever had! I can only hope to give her half as much as I feel she has given me!

LDR Challenge: Day 10 - Favourite thing about her?

Can I only pick one? There's so much I love about her! I think my favourite thing about her is her confidence. She's not gonna stand back and let others run things, she'll take charge, say what she pleases because she is herself, and don't care to be liked by people thinking she's something other than that! I admire that in her, she'll always stand up for herself, her friends, animals and what she feels is right, but she'll also speak against what she disagrees with instead of just silent accept. The fact that she faces everything you throw at her with the same strength, to me that is incredible! My favourite thing though, is the fact that she is mine!

I wanted to put something epic here!

Oh yeah, I have plane tickets!

It's getting hard thinking up titles...

Today is my one day off work this week. I usually always have two, because on weeks when I have Sundays, I get friday off. But I've traded this one off, because it made me able to get to Holland 3 days earlier than otherwise, so this is absolutely the best decision I could make!
My coworkers are going out tonight, bowling and then further out in town. I wouldn't mind bowling, but even if I did not have work, I'd go home afterwards, I've never enjoyed spending nights "out in town." I feel uncomfortable, awkward, it's just not going to be my thing.
They're also having a preparty earlier, I expect to drop in to that shortly, before going home to sleep and be ready for tomorrow. 6-14.30, it's not too bad, it's not the most busy of times, luckily! I'm also, from next week, have Tuesday's closing shift, 14-22, but these evenings are really quiet too, so I've no issue with this schedule. And after work tomorrow, I'll go home to my parents and they'll give dinner, together with my sister and her boyfriend, so it's going to be a really fantastic weekend actually!

Wow, that was probably way boring, so let's get on to why any of you is even here. I'm wondering who reads this crap actually, I get at least 20 hits a day, but I only know of one person who even bothers about this! Oh well, the anonymousity of internet is why I love it anyway, so I'm not that bothered. Now then...

LDR Challenge: Day 8 - Favourite thing you've given her?

If we should start with the happy sappy, tear aching stuff, I've given her a reason to keep going, to make plans and have hope for her future. I've given her happiness she's never known before! Enough high thoughts about myself now, trying to stay modest here!

Her favorite thing she's gotten from me, however, is a donkey plushie. We had them at work, and I just thought they were too cute, so I bought it for her, along with some chocolate, and I forgot flowers, I'm not a flower giving man, I'll admit. But she loves that thing, protects it from everything and keeps it safe. I sprayed it with my deodorant and cologne before she left, because she wanted to have my scent when she was falling asleep. I don't think it still has the scent though. But then again, in 2 weeks I will be with her, and that's even better I'm sure she'll agree!

On a different note, I bought a bunch of games today. Gog.com is a great place for cheap older games, Abandonia is good too for free games, if you know how to use DosBox for a bunch of them at least.

I'll go do the dishes so I can get some dinner today. All for now.

LDR Challenge: Day 7

Well now, I'm really tired, so this is gonna be a short one! Hopefully I'll make it up to you tomorrow with a more indepth... anything about something. It was a long day at work today, had to stay an hour longer, and that isn't really that much longer, but it still makes you appreciate your off time even more!

On to today's question, which is...

How do you communicate with each other?

As you know, in the beginning we talked through Twitch. Then Twitter, she's the only reason I started to actively use that site, never cared much for it otherwise. But we tweeted, and messaged each other through it, I'd even guess when she was going to sleep and keep her up, I'm sure she loved me for that and it did the trick!
Then I got Viber, and she did, and we talked through that. We still do, when we call each other, but for everyday messaging, we're using What'sApp, which works brilliantly for that! And Skype, I love when we get to Skype and actually see each other and just mess around and laugh about being completely silly!
I could never get enough of talking with her!

Jeg elsker dig, min skat!

LDR Challenge: Day 6

What is the most random thing you know about her? And vice versa?

Well, there's quite a few things actually. Since she already did this a while back, I thought of all the things that was most random I could think of, so here they be!

She's half Dutch, half Nigerian.
She likes animals, like a lot, more than she likes most people, even me I suspect.
She's an amazing cook, I've had good food, but nothing compares to her's!
She have a nosering, she changed it recently, but she do!
She sports a sidecut, brown hair but sometimes dyed black, and it looks awesome.
Stretched ears, both, 1cm I believe, and she has spirals in them now, but she used to have.. plugs, I think they're called?
I've never seen her without her necklaces on! Used to be 3, now 2, dunno why, but she never takes them off, sleeping, shower, anytime they're on her!
She has brown eyes, I think they're the most adorable, beautiful eyes on anyone, but she wants them to be a different colour, I think they fit her well!
She does a chipmunk voice. The first time she did it, on Skype, she talked like that for, probably not too long, but it felt like 10 minutes for me, and I heard no words, because I was laughing so hard I had trouble breathing!
She can make her nose very flat since she doesn't have a nosebone!

Her about me?

I'm scared of spiders. Terrified, I'd rather let her handle them because I just get paralyzed, they are the scariest ever! (I actually dislike most creepycrawlies, but spiders and milipedes and centipedes the most.)
My beard is gingerish despite that I'm blonde. (Although practially bald, lost my hair at an early age.)
I like chicken, and food in general. Which is true, espicially her's!
Her dog, Fallie, we believe she's a whippet/greyhound mix, and she's my favorite of her dogs. Probably my favorite dog of all!
The smell of raw chicken I hate! Even worse, chiken that's gone bad from being too old nearly makes me puke, it's disgusting!
I like to sing, even though my voice is horrendous, I don't own a bit of tone, it just makes me feel really good! And when I sing to her, she falls asleep, it's so darn cute!
I'm afraid of needles. Well, somewhat. Didn't use to be, got stung a bunch of times as a child, but last time I fainted, somehow?! It hurt really bad too, compared to earlier. I really dislike the look of it as the skin gives in and let's it through though, that's the worst part of it!
I love my job, true, I feel so at home, accepted, appreciated, it's really a great place to be for me!
And I'm short, shorter than her, a little, but I don't mind, I'm happy with my heigth. And her's too!

I've had this version of our song stuck in my head all day.

I'm eating popcorn

Yup, a bowl of popcorn sitting besides me, eating them. I like popcorn, they're a good snack!

My dad helped me today. Even though it turned out that he hadn't had to do it, so I feel kind of bad for making him. There's some fungus in the building, and a note was put up that we had to be home or turn in our keys to someone so they could inspect all the apartments. Now, I'm not going to hand in my key to someone I don't know, not on your life, so I called my parents and asked them. But then those people, they didn't even bother to look through the apartments, how dumb is that?! So I gotta get my dad something big as a thank you for wasting his time! He even cleaned a little and fixed my blinds that's been broken since forever. I have the best fucking parents ever, I should tell them that more!

I need to focus more. Not in general, or maybe that too, but at work. I have a tendency to go on and do about 10 other things instead of the one thing that's priority. I really need to work on turning off that button in my head that wants to do all at once, and just leave some stuff for others, or later. It's going to be challenging, but I want to do better at my job, prove that I can improve and get better than what I am!

LDR Challenge: Day 5 - Since when have you been together?

Well, we got off to a bit of a bumpy start because I was very confused about my feelings, but once I realised what I wanted. We officially got together on January 28th, 2013. And it's only gotten better since that!

This is our story...

Do you remember that square I told you about earlier? The one with the tower, that's the one! At least I remember it as such, I can't imagine it would be anywhere else.
Well, while we were sitting there, an old classmate, or schoolmate of Nen, someone she knows, was out with her boyfriend/man/ex/oneoranother, and had her child with her.
This child, I tell you... She was the most darling, adorable thing I have ever seen! Bruises all over because she fell out of bed, knocked her head, fell onto the ground, but just one giant smile, curious, exploring the entire area, running more than I'd be able to this day! I don't know how long we just sat there and looked, smiled and exhanged looks with each other, and then she ran up to us to fistbump us, so we of course did to her obvious joy. She did this to basically everyone in the area. Even a girl who was having a break in front of a restaurant. And she let her into the kitchen, where she fistbumped all of the staff before running back outside to look for more people! She was the sweetest thing ever, I tell ya'!

LDR Challenge: Day 4 - How did you meet?

Wauh, I dread for this question whenever I tell people about us. Not because I don't like to explain it, but I wonder if they'll get it, since it's a bit of a long one. About a year ago, this month actually, I started watching Markiplier on YouTube. I had seen some LPs before, but not ones like this, and because of some more personal videos I decided to subscribe to him. I then found out he did his livestreams on Twitch, where you can watch him, and chat among each other. So we did. Some of us then did it even when he wasn't streaming, and he made into his unofficial chatroom. But during one of these streams I saw "NennahKills" and we started talking, and just hit it off. I was on there all the time, just hoping she'd be on! I started actively using my Twitter to talk to her more, I was probably being obnoxious, and annoying! But perstitence paid off as we ended up exhanging phone numbers and texted nonstop, 'til we fell for each other! And here we are, 8 months later, going stronger than ever! I love this girl with all my heart, body and mind! Thanks for becoming mine. <3

Oh yeah, check this out! This is the shirt I bought for Nennah and myself in his last charity stream, raising about $44.000 in 6-8 hours, incredible!

Ow, my head!

I hit my head today. It bled, and I am pretty sure if I hadn't acted as heroic as I did, I might've died! But I put a bandaid on my forehead, because that is the coolest look you can have! I hit it on a metalcorner while sitting at the register, I think it must've looked pretty comic from the outside, but it seriously hurt. It's not bad now, though.

More from my time in Holland? Alright, if you say so! Her mum drove us to a town a bit further away from where they live. The Dutch Venice they called it, because of, you guessed it, canals running thru the town where you could sail, or row or fall out of your method of transport, anything you'd expect from such a place! The small bridges that went over some of the lesser streams was very easy to get to shake, so we did that everytime we walked over them, which made her sister wait 'til we had crossed completely before she stepped foot on it. We also said hi to basically every Asian looking person we passed, most of them greeted us back, we had fun with it. We got some ice cream too, and enjoyed the weather, it was really good that day, most of the week was actually tremendously warm and sunny, just a lovely week!

We also drove around to see the farm Nennah had worked on at her internship, delivering baby lambs and taking care of them among other stuff. And let me tell you, the only reason you can't see forever in Holland, is because of the Earth starting to curve, it is as flat as you have ever been told by any stereotypical description of that country!

LDR Challenge: Day 3 - Your Locations?

She is living in Meppel, Holland. And I reside in Roskilde, Denmark. 632km or 393 miles apart from each other. Sucks, but it is SO worth it, don't ever let distance stop you!

This is my super awesome looking bandaid!

LDR Challenge: Day 2

I am back again! Expect it each and every day for the next.. 28 days I guess it'll count to, I'll try to keep on afterwards too though. Gimme a chance, I'm just getting started here!

I had been in Holland (Yes, The Netherlands, but everybody I know call it Holland, so live with it) once before, with my parents. We stayed at a camping site somewhere, I've no clue where, my parents don't remember, although my dad claims it was somewhere down south, I was convinced we were in the northeren part. That'll forever be a mystery. I wasn't that young either, I just have trouble remembering anything that's been going on in my past, so much stuff is just completely missing or foggy memories!

My second trip there however, boy, that was something else! We hit it off so well, and her mum and sister are such nice people too! Welcomed me with open arms, and seemed genuinely happy to open their home for me. I felt very accepted. Still do. Going there again soon, for another week, and I am looking so much forward to it, I really enjoyed being there last time. Walking around the town, or city, I suppose it could count as, with her hand in mine, just talking, watching people and buildings, those are my fondest memories from my week there! Sitting on a bench, watching a stream flow by, and ugly buildings across it, saying random words in our respective languages and laughing with each other, because of all the silliness this gave us. I cannot wait 'til we'll be just the two of us again, outside and enjoying each other's company.

Mosquitoes of Meppel

I believe that was what it was called, something very similar to that I know for sure. It was in the town square. We were just sitting on these rock benches there, looking at people and talking, and there is this big tower. At some point a whole herd, as in really many, mosquitoes were gathering in and around that tower. And... I don't remember the story completely, so I'll make the rest up. 
All these mosquitoes had covered it completely, you couldn't see the bricks it was made of. No rain, snow, wind, anything could make them leave, it had turned into one giant living organism, bascially. Until, the bell started ringing, which it now only does once a year apparently, shook off all these bugs, spreading them all over the town. And now seperated from each other, they started to change, they became the very people who then lived in the city. And that is why the people there are called Meppel's Mosquitoes. 
That was the history lesson for the day!

LDR Challenge: Day 2
What age are you?
I am 25, and she is 19. When we started talking, if anyone had asked, I'd have sworn she was older, seems much more mature than that!

Oh, and yesterday I bought her and myself a Markiplier t-shirt, finally! The profit goes to a charity drive to help animals, which is the best way to buy clothes I've ever done!

http://twitch.tv/markiplier - This is the site we met on, also the one where he hosts his charity. Filled with lovely people, nearly every day!

Feel free to leave a comment too, always, I love reading those.

8 months!

Greetings!

So, I hardly ever use this, and apparently eeeeverybody (read: 1 person) bugs me and begs me and pleads me (is that even right, I dunno, who cares) to update this more often! I mean, I enjoy writing stuff here, but it's hard to find the time, since I prefer to dive into it, not be disturbed by anything, and I prefer texting my special someone to this! But I'll try to see if I can manage both things!

Now, let's begin.... I don't even know when my last post was, I'm not totally sure how much time has passed since then, but I'll start from now and work my way backwards in time! Go with me on a journey to explore the close past, like, only a few months, neither my personal time machine (patent pending) or my memory goes back much further than that!

8 months ago, to this day, my relationship with Nennah started! It was a rough start since my feelings were all over the place, I didn't know how to feel, what I wanted, nothing. But luckily it ended up with us on january 28th, I take her word for it that the date is right, we chose to become a couple! And today we are still going, stronger than ever! I finally have a feeling this is actually the one that will last for a lifetime, because I wouldn't know what to do without this girl in my life!

As you may recall, I went there for a week, looong ago, not that long, but it feels like it's a lifetime ago! I don't remember if I said much about it, so.. this one will be a long'un, telling what we did, what I remember!

Schipol Airport

The plane had landed. I was walking as quick as I could, I only had myself and no carry-on, so I was beelining for the baggage claim area. Let me tell you, Schipol (and you're pronouncing it wrong I bet) is fucking huge! It felt like it took 25-30 minutes just to get there. Probably not really that long, but damn. And then all the monitors telling where your flight's luggage is being delivered. I started at them for so long before I finally saw the numbers I reckognised! So I went there, and could finally begin my attempt at getting some wi.fi service for my phone. Why do free wifi need to have passwords, it's just a nuiscance! But I got on, semi, our main means of communication didn't work, so I tweeted about everything hoping to hear her tell me what to do, where to go! I got my bag, and went to buy a train ticket. Now that machine... I was lost, I asked a kind man behind me to explain how it worked, where to put my card, all of it, as it made no sense to me! I got my ticket, thanked him and went on to the biggest hall ever! I couldn't see the end wall of that place, I couldn't understand how we were ever going to find each other in this place! So I went somewhere I could look around, and waited. Waiting, most of the time you spend when flying is just waiting. I kept checking all the possible entrances I could see from my spot, and as I looked to my left she was heading towards me, her smile lit up the place and it was as if everyone else just disappeared, I only saw her! My heart pounding, the knot in my stomach losen since she did show and found me! And then she hugged me, tight enough that I just wanted it to go on forever, and then I kissed her! I don't know how long, but not long enough, because suddenly she started walking fast away from me, and I got so confused and chased after her. Turns out we had to catch a train pretty quick, she could've told me though before just taking off like that! We got on it, talked all the way, sneaking kisses even though she didn't want to in public, I couldn't care less, I finally had my baby by my side!

Meppel

We arrived at Meppel where her mum and a friend of theirs picked us up, it was late, I was tired from the trip, but greeted them, thanked them and went to the car, without really having been able to put a face on these people. Drove home to her house, got greeted by her sister, a ton of dogs and another friend. Music playing, people speaking Dutch, I felt quite awkward and just wanted to have some relaxation, but they were all nice people, even though Nennah hit me. We talked for a while before heading in for the night, and I've never slept in a more comfortable bed than her's or with someone better or more beautiful by my side! I knew right away this love was real, not just a distant one, we worked even better in real life!

Day 1... The entire week

It's not like I remember exactly what we did on which day, so it's going to be delivered as I remember it! Actually, I think I'll wait with that 'til tomorrow, have a reason to do this thing more often! Also, Markiplier is about to start this months' charity livestream, and while I usually don't get to be there in its intirety I'll try to catch most of it.

LDR 30 Day Challenge

This is a little thing people do on this there Tumblr, so I decided to give it a shot too, again, gives me reason to do this regularly.

Day 1: What is your name and her name?

I am Peter Kirkegaard, duh, and she is Naiyee "Nennah" Erhunmwunse (I actually spelled it right on first try, proud me!) but please call her Nennah!

Happy 8 months baby, I love you! <3

Her blog: http://nennahkills.tumblr.com/

Thanks for reading!

Once more, with feeling!

Alright, since absolutely everybody is begging me to write more often on this, or at least one special person does, I will now make you all suffer through my ramblings again! Or you can just stop reading right away, I won't know, and it's not exactly going to be an interesting read. I'll do my best to not bore you completely to death however, halfway to death, and you can take it from there.
Also my F button is lose, I think it was when I bought it, and my spacebar isn't doing well, for... reasons.

How boring would it be to just talk about the weather? Do an entire 1000 word entry just going on about how today the rain was heavy, and the sky is grey, while yesterday it was 25+, clear blue sky, and I had a longtime dream, or wish, fulfilled.

My parents picked me up from work, nice and quiet saturday, which is odd, considering we're closed for 2 days, people usually finds that to be near equal famine. We drove to this fair, annual, maybe more, what do I know, I've only lived in the town my entire life. We walk around, not the most exciting place in the world, more fun when it's the... Agricultural show, apparently it's called,  but we did find a helicopter that took people for rides.
I have always wanted to fly in a helicopter, wanted to fly one, but I don't think that's ever going to happen, however to experience taking off, watch the ground underneath my feet, see the machine from the inside. I was as happy as a little kid who found his mother after losing her at the supermarket! A 10 minute flight, above the city, it was really something! And the pilot was female, which I didn't expect, funny how such still takes people, including me, aback, you just expect it to be a man. Plain stupid, but a nice day!

Still, that really wasn't the biggest thing to have happened to me this year, but I'll get to that. At the beginning of the year I was still reading pedagogy (look it up if needed) and I really didn't feel like I was getting anywhere. It was boring, I was miserable, didn't feel like I earned any knowledge I didn't already have by growing up with parents running a daycare. I decided to call it quits, got back to my job, immediately got rehired, as a backup, parttime, better than nothing at all, still not enough to make a living, and I hated not knowing when or where I would have work next time, it was stressful.
I ended up being lend to a store, where I gathered they had recently laid somebody off, and needed a new fulltime. I saw my opportunity, and asked for it, and after some back and forth, and problems that hadn't been there, I ended up starting there instead. Finally feeling like I had a reason to get up every morning, or get out of bed, I already had plenty reason to be awake you see.

Last year, I got into watching YouTube videos by this guy called Markiplier. Every once in a while he would do a charity livestream event, where his fans could chat with him, and among themselves. A few of us started hanging out there, even when he wasn't, and he decided to make it the unofficial fan chatpage. Met a ton of great people, got pretty addicted to it, spending most of my freetime there, where I happened to meet, whom I've later discovered to be the girl of my dreams, and the one I'll spend my life with, Nennah.
At first we just talked, or maybe I just made sure to talk to her whenever she was there, I hope I wasn't being too annoying! I already had a Twitter, but I started using it to talk to her, outside of the chat, all the time, I think she got a bit irritated when I wouldn't let her sleep, but I was very interested in this girl. From another country, new and exciting to talk to!
So I just couldn't stop. It took a while, before we declared our love for each other. Me being a total prick about it, cuz a relationship, espicially long distance, was nowhere on my list of wanted things. But feelings are stronger than what I want, so luckily I realised I couldn't be without her, and let her know before she slipped away. So close to losing the best thing to ever happpen to me. The girl who have made me happier than anything else in my life! Thank you, Nennah, ik hou van je!

Oh yeah, the spacebar. You see, the thing is, as far as smart people go, I am not really to be considered one of them. I had some leftover yoghurt from when I baked my first ever cake, which turned out fairly decent, let me tell you! To not let the yoghurt go to waste I put it in a bowl, sugar on it, because it tasted horrible, and because Nen dislikes dairy I decided to show her resulting in me pouring it all over my laptop. Somehow it's survived with hardly any means. My little lappy is tougher than so!

Quite recently, just 3 weeks ago, I did something I had never thought I'd do. I had bought a plance ticket, and boarded a plane, all by myself, to travel to a whole other country! Granted, this trip was quicker and shorter than taking a car to see my brother, but to me it was a really big thing! I went to Holland, to meet my girlfriend of 3 months, and we immeadetly clicked, and just fit perfect together! Spend the week with her, her sister and mum, great people, whom I am happy to consider my extended family. I've never felt as weird though, as waking up next to my soulmate in the morning, and going to sleep in my own bed that same evening. I hope the time will go by fast 'til we're no longer living apart. For now it's worth it though, I haven't been this happy in a long time!

Well, now I'll have cookies and hot cocoa, so I'll end it here. Maybe there'll be another entry before I reach 80, which reminds me, my birthday is coming up. Getting more money to buy a new bed hopefully, I don't really need anything else, presents isn't a big must for me. I'll try to end it again now. You, have a beautiful day today, I hope you're doing well!

My 2012

A new year has begun. 2013, and good bye 2012. Big surprise, I know, but it's true.
It's also the first year since I was born to have four different digits, which is a quite cool, but completely useless fact, in my opinion.
I love totally pointless trivia, you see, and yet I suck at Trivial Pursuit, I really really do! Actually, I suck at most games, but I do enjoy playing them none the less!

I've wanted to come back to this for a long time, I think I'm just not that good with actually sharing my experiences, feelings and thoughts with "The world" (cuz the whoooole world read random E-type blogs!)
Now though, I'll try it again, since it is quite fun, and actually therapeutic for me to write. It's for my own benefit, not anyone else's. I saw a YouTuber, Yamimash, who made a vlog describing his year, and I got inspired, but as I don't do videos, this'll have to do!

I don't really recall everything that's happened, but I'll do my best to fill in as much as I can!

Let's begin..


January & February

My year started out pretty good, apart from finally getting really ill, after walking around and feeling down for a few weeks. I went to bed New Year's eve at about 1am, I think, and the day after I was just completely sick! I spend the whole day lying in my then girlfriend's parent's couch, and hardly able to eat or talk or do anything really.

I got well again, resumed my work at the retail store, which I had never actually planned on working at, but was now finishing my 3rd year there, despite massive change in colleagues, bosses, everything really. I enjoyed it though, I loved going to work, and I felt like I was good at it, and I do so enjoy not having any homework, but just getting off work, and then be free to do whatever!

I had started to wonder where I actually wanted to go in my life. I had considered trying to make a career in the company, but I wasn't really too hooked on that idea any longer. At least at some point during the year I wasn't, can't say if it had already started that early.

But still, I was happy, apart from the fact that my girlfriend lived in another part of the country, and we were only able to see each other, at most, once a week. Which was quite tough, considering I had work, she had school, and we still needed to keep in contact with family and friends as well. I really had a hard time having to be away from her so much. And I could tell it was bothering her too, perhaps even more, as she was the one who had moved away from nearly all she knew.


March

Now, I'm a member of something called "Foreningen af H.G.'ere" which is just a small group of people who host a party once a year for all the students that has attended that gymnasium. We meet a few times a year to plan for it and organize it, and just to hang out and have some fun. This year I'm pretty sure I weren't able to go. If I remember correctly, I helped with the setting up for the party, and then had to go see my dad in a play, or a play he had instructed I think, that year. He's part of an amateur theater group who makes a play every year as well. It was enjoyable too, I've been going since I was a kid, so it's a nice little tradition.

Later that month, I found out two of my good friends had recently broken up, not long after they had just moved in together even, which was really unfortunate, but they've been feeling it coming for a while, and we're all still good friends, at least I feel that way, hopefully they do too. I had known it for a while, don't recall who told me, but at an Easter party they officially announced it to everyone.
Funny part is, and I use funny very wrong here, since it was honestly just one of the worst things I've had to do, but earlier that same day, my girlfriend and I broke up, we just couldn't get it too work, when we only saw each other that rarely. So we talked for a long time, and ended up agreeing that that was the best thing to do, to relieve stress from the both of us. I'm still not sure that was the right choice, but that's just how choices go, I suppose. We still talk, not as often, not as much. I do miss her, but I am sure it was the best for both of us!


April & May

I can't recall April at all. Suppose I was mostly just down from the fact that I had broken up with my girlfriend, and I think that really kicked the idea that I needed to do some changes in my life. Since I had just been at the same job for 3 years, and so many of my friends were starting to study something, I realised I should probably educate myself some more.
So I talked to my bosses about it, and they were acceptant, however didn't seem to thrilled that I was planning on leaving altogether, instead of just going to part-time. I felt like I really needed a break from it, and I ended up with a 2-month summer vacation, which was pretty sweet.

So in May I turned 24. I'm not a big fan of throwing birthday parties, and I think this year was just my parents and me. Which was fine by me, a relaxing day and evening, eat at a restaraunt, and just taking it easy. I like that, I prefer small intimate parties to huge parties as well. Just feel much more comfortable in those settings. And actually, a couple of times this month there were small parties, not even "get hammered" parties, but just social get-togethers with a bunch of my friends.
This was also the month I handed in my resignation, since I had misunderstood how "a month" notice works, and apparently it's a month from the next 1st, but I was alright with that. Would probably have been a bit too much with 2 weeks more of doing mostly nothing.


June, July & August

So this was my last month of working, I felt odd finally leaving it behind, since it had been such a huge part of my identity for so long. Got some nice good byes, even though I still see a lot of them, and visit the store now and then, to see how it's going, and end up spending way too much time there catching up.
Then Roskilde Festival, my... 6th year, with my regular group of friends plus some Roskilde-only acquaintances, this was the first year I was sleeping in a tent by myself however. And it was boring, and uncomfortable, and loud (the new camping scene, Apollo, which played horrible music, in my taste, all night was almost right besides ud), and I'm old, so I only ended up sleeping at the area 2 nights I think, then I went home to sleep each night.
We had also spend the entire day in the queue, and then everyone just stormed the fence, so we were in a pretty sour mood at first, luckily that quickly changed as we got settled in, with our dumb-as-fuck neighbours. Can't be helped with that many people at one place I suppose. It ended up being good, saw some great shows, had fun, enjoyed the festival much as I always do, and am going next year as well, though probably in the luxurious way and go back home to get a good night's sleep each night.

I can't really remember all I did with my two months vacation, or when I did what, but I visited my big brother, whom I rarely see as we live far away from each other as well. Spend a week at his house, playing games, helping out, having fun. Seeing my niece for the first time, and she was what, nearly turning 3, it saddens me to only be able to see him so rarely, and her even less!
My sister's moving around as well, and busy with odd jobs all over the place, so I don't get to see her often either. I've never been much of a social person, in any regards, but I do really enjoy spending time with people, however lousy I am at doing it! I get told off for this by my good friends way too often, so I definitely need to work on that!


September and onwards...

Yes, I got lazy and decided to put the rest of the months in just this one.

I started my education in September. First few days were tough, as I'm very shy, not good at starting conversations with people I don't know, and generally consider myself to be very socially awkward. I did manage to talk to a few people that day, ended up in the same class as them as well, which I was quite happy about. Also, after a while, I got better at talking to a lot of other people in the class, and actually felt quite good socially about where I was, had fun, and really liked studying again after a 4 year break.

However that did change not all that long into it. I'm not sure exactly what has made me doubt if it is the direction I want to take, I've no idea what else to do, I just don't feel the same exitement about going to school as I did at first. I wasn't, and aren't, motivated anymore, and nothing is worse than doing something that you don't really feel like doing. I'm just not sure what to do about it, so for now, I'll stick with it at least through my first practic semester, and then I'll hopefully be able to decide whether or not I'm really meant for it. I need to keep my eyes on the target and remember that I'm doing this to be able to read something else, something that has my interest much more, than this apparently has.
I'm just glad that I'm not the only one feeling like this, most of my friends has had the same feeling when they first started out with their educations, but I just don't know... Enough of that!

My mum turned 60 this year! In December, and my brother was home visiting for a couple of days, as was my sister and her boyfriend very shortly. Played a bunch of computer games with my brother, and on mum's birthday, we had a 20 minute fireworks show, since my sister and her special other work with fireworks, so they had brought a bunch with them. That was the most spectacular show I had ever seen, I was so amazed!

This was also the year, I found a new community online, haven't really had online friends for many years, apart from a select few from way back when! I don't exactly remember how or why, but I started watching some Let's Plays on YouTube, and stumbled upon This particular video of a guy named MarkiplierGAME.

I had never really used YouTube before, only when someone sent a link to something, I might watch it, but this made me actually get really into it. And I'm glad I did, since this guy is amazing. Funny, and really a great person, doing livestreams to raise money for charity causes. This year his goal is 50.000$ which he would achieve just by each of his followers donating a single dollar. But that sure is quite an effort! And the people that I've met through this guy has just become such a huge part of my life, and I really appreciate feeling so accepted and loved by these people I've never met, but feel so connected to!

That's all I have to say for now, I guess it is enough, so take care everyone, look out and care for each other and I hope you will have the best year you've had so far in your life!

And this is the reason I admire this guy so much!
