Be yourself

I've written a song, what do you think? :-D

I’m worth much more than this

Intro –

Some days you feel you don’t belong

Some days the world feels all wrong

Your head is not coping, no one understands.

The feeling of being lost in your own mind

To look in the mirror,  not being able to shine.

But this you should know…

Chours:

Take a step back.

Allow yourself to breathe

Close your eyes, put on a smile

Say to your mirror; I feel fine

Because I’m worth much more than this

Sometimes the world  laugh at you

Some days nothing’s right

Can’t breathe, can’t stand still,

Tears running down your face

Your only wish is a dose of that pill.

Chours:

Take a step back.

Allow yourself to breathe

Close your eyes, put on a smile

Say to your mirror; I feel fine

Because I’m worth much more than this

But this your should know

In my eyes you’re the best

Your laugh, your smile

Perfection,  beautiful, loving and kind.

Without you, the world’s not the same

So, you, just look in the mirror and smile.

Chours:

Take a step back.

Allow yourself to breathe

Close your eyes, put on a smile

Say to your mirror; I feel fine

Because I’m worth much more than this

It’s true.

Top 3 Boyband songs

*Note - This contains only boyband from when I was "young". Like from 1999-2008 ish. So NO One Direction or Justin Bieber (luckily... Have nothing against them, just don't like the music).

1) Westlife - I'll see you again.

 

"You're gone now, gone but not forgotten

I cant say this to your face

But I know you hear". 

The video is from their "Where we are"-tour. Two of the members, Kian and Nicky, had just lost their fathers. I think that is what making this performance so moving and good. Because they mean every word they're singing. And they know they're gonna see them again. Im almost crying when I'm writing this hehe.. 

2) A1 - Like a rose

"You give me strength so I stand tall. 

Within this bed of earth, just like a rose."

This song is the most cheesy boyband-song ever, but still I find it romantic and beautiful. At least when I don't look at the video. Hehe, what were they thinking?? But hey, I still want to slowdance with a nice man to this song, so well done A1!

3) Boyzone - No matter what

"No matter if the sun don't shine

Or if the skies aren't blue

No matter what the ending

My life began with you"

I don't know which song is more clisjê, this one or "Like a rose". But if we look away from all the typical boyband-things in this video. The song is quite nice! To believe in yourself and dont let other people drag you down ^^ The quote above is my favourite from the song!

BONUS-song 

Westlife - Lighthouse 

Just because this is the last song from my favourite band, and Come on - the song is awsome! ;)

"You're the light in the dark

You're the seat in the park

You're the lighthouse

You're the lighthouse

I need You're the key to the door

You're the port in the storm

And I need to find the shore

Cos I can't swim anymore

You always guide me back to solid ground

You're my lighthouse".

Six Ribbons

I don't really know why I'm sharing this song. It's not a big hit or something, but I think it's a nice song and worth listening to^^ (man, i must write more english, I suck!)

The artist is a norwegian guy called Didrik Solli-Tangen. He was born in 1987 in Porsgrunn, Norway. He is really an opera-singer, but does all kinds of music:)
In 2010 he entered Eurovision Song Contest representing Norway.

Have a nice day!

Ungdomsklubb bedehuset i Volda - First Lego League

Ny klubb på bedehuset med teknisk lego som hovudaktivitet og deltaking i konkurransen First Lego League.

I byrjinga av november vert det arrangert ein stor konkurranse i operahuset i Nordfjordeid. Då samlast born og ungdomar frå Møre og Romsdal og Sogn og Fjordane til legokonkurransen FIRST LEGO League® (FLL). Årets tema er framtidas skule- og klasserom.

Nokre få punkt om FIRST LEGO League® (FLL)

·        - Kunnskapskonkurranse for born og unge i alderen 10-16 år, arrangert sidan 2000.

·        -  Konkurransen vert organisert i Skandinavia av FIRST Scandinavia. 

·        -  I 2013 deltok 845 lag/ 12 675 deltakarar i dei regionale turneringane. På verdsbasis deltok 200 000 born frå 70 land.

·        -  Føremålet  med konseptet er å auke interessa for teknologi og vitskap, og stimulere dagens ungdom til å bli  morgondagens ingeniørar og forskarar. 

·         For meir informasjon , sjå nettsida www.hjernekraft.org. 

"Tidlegare år har eg følgt klasser frå ein barneskule i Sola, Rogaland, og dessutan mellomtrinnselevar og ungdomar frå Den norske skolen i Nairobi, Kenya, til First Lego League-konkurranse i Stavanger. Det har vore gode og inspirerande erfaringar, både for elevane og meg! Difor har eg, som innflyttar i Volda, lenge tenkt at det kunne vore ein fin ting å kombinere deltaking i denne konkurransen med oppstart av eit nytt barne-/ungdomsslag på Volda bedehus. Det nyaste og mest moderne legoutstyret er alt kjøpt inn, så no ventar vi berre på gutar og jenter frå 10 – 14 år som kan tenkje seg å bli med.  Vi ser for oss mykje lego, spel og andre aktivitetar, ei andakt og kanskje bollar og saft…."

Friday; Eyetest

Today is the day of my dreaded eyetest. My eyesight has been getting worse, especially when I'm reading or writing job-raports on the computer. It feels like I'm going to faint! So I guess it's time to get it fixed properly!
I hope at least that the "Interoptic"-shop has some cool glasses that will suit me. I was looking on internet the other day for some ideas, and I found these:

Gucci

YvesSaintLaurent:

Ray-Ban

I'm starting to notice it's going to be a tough choice in the shop later today, cause there's a lot more glasses than on the webpage I've looked on! 

Pictures from my first two months back in Volda

As the title says! :-D

This is Volda-centre, with "Rotsethornet" in the middle

And while I'm waiting for the ferry to collect me...

My neightbour's dog, Rambo. Cute little fellow!

Been out cycling! Gellow-feet!

Selfie!

This is Lissie, my new kitten!

Isn't she adorable?!

Our boat at home! 

My very good friend Marie!

Marie and Miriam! Two lovely girls, who I'm gonna miss!

4 amazing years!

This is one of the last weeks for me here in Oslo. My education is coming to an end, and I'm planning to move back home so that i can begin my working career! Can't wait! But at the same time, it is a little bit scary, moving back to the place I haven't lived in since i was about 16 years old! 

That is definitly going to be a challenge for me. Not only because I don't have so many friends there, but also because I have to find myself a new church. I have always found it kinda scary to get to know other people because I'm so shy, but that is something I really have to challenge myself to do! I know that I'm gonna be fine in the end :D I have Jesus to look after me and i'm so happy for that!

This is me at the Akershus fortress in Oslo

My homeplace; Bjørkedalen

One of my best friends, who I'm really gonna miss <3

My new home; Volda!

I just want to say thank you to mo friends who have been there for me troughout all that has happen in the past four years! It has really been amazing, and I absolutely adore you all <3

Nostalgy!

Man, this is so cool to watch! Just look at how they have changed! Etc Shane with blonde hair haha!

Wide Open

Why do i try to hide
These feelings deep inside?
But tonight seems too long
To live this life, all alone

I guess i'll have to wait
It's almost more than i can take
Is it written in the stars?
This kingdom in your eyes
This world could be ours

So letting go tonight
And handing you the knife

If you cut me wide open
There's a love here unspoken
A heart overflowing
Dreaming of your kiss

I'm standing here hoping
For the moment you say when
Touching your skin, giving
You kill me everytime
I would die for you

I could go on and pretend
And play the fool again
How can i just walk away
From everything i feel

When all i wanna say
These scars'll never heal
And they'll never go away
[From: http://www.elyrics.net]

So cut me wide open
There's a love here unspoken
A heart overflowing
Dreaming of your kiss

I'm standing here hoping
For the moment you say when
Touching your skin, giving
You kill me everytime
I would die for you...

There's no way to explain to you
Just cutting through my veins
I can't take it any longer
This feeling's getting stronger every day, yeah-ah

If you cut me wide open
There's a love here unspoken
A heart overflowing
Dreaming of your kiss

I'm standing here hoping
For the moment you say when
Touching your skin, giving
You kill me everytime
I would die for you...

(ooh-ooh)

I would die for you...
I would die for you...
I would die for you.

Picture of the day #2

This is a picture from spring 2012, at Akershus fortress in Oslo.

Mariell, Hanna and Anne Line

Beautiful in white

This is the song I wanna dance to in my wedding. It's an unreleased Westlife-song, sung by Shane Filan. Have a listen and tell me what you think ;-)

Love is

LOVE IS

What is love, Love can't see you but you can't see it

Love is a sneaky thing I guess sort of slick

Love can hurt and Love can heal

Love can be born and Love can kill

Love has won and Love has lost

Love can catch and Love can toss

Love can stand and Love can fall 

Love is small and Love is tall 

Love is right and Love is wrong 

Love is weak but Love is strong

Love is up and Love is down

Love can smile and Love can frown

Love is good and Love can be bad

Love is quite and Love can brag

Love is a little and Love is a lot

Love contiues and Love stops

Love can hope and Love can dream

Love can talk and Love can sing

Love can be a word or Love can be a ring

Love can be nothing or Love can be everything

So where is this thing we call Love

I dont know the only real love we have comes from above... 

- Daniel Chapman - 

Margaret Berger - I feed you my love

This is one of the entries in the Norwegian finals of Eurovision Song contest, Margaret Berger. I think this song is a mix of Robyn, tecnho and pop. I hope it will do good!

Jamie Cullum - All at sea

All at sea

Now I need you more than ever, I need you more than ever, now

You don't need it every day

But sometimes don't you just crave

To disappear within your mind

You never know what you might find

So come and spend some time with me

We will spend it all at sea

Like a warm drink it seeps into my soul

Please just leave me right here on my own

Later on you could spend some time with me

If you want to

All at sea
