Not Unlike the Waves: Learning Humour
http://trolldis.blogspot.com/2011/03/learning-humour.html
Friday, 17 June 2011. I just realized what my biggest challenge is when living here in Germany. Language? Occasionally a problem, but no. Homesickness? Of course I have it, but no. The biggest problem is, readers, that I am completely incapable of being funny in German. Humour. Clearly I am completely incapable of being funny when talking German. It's not like I don't try, it's just that every try ends in a massive fail. Whether I am capable of being funny in English or not is up to me to decide, but tha...

Not Unlike the Waves: May 2010
http://trolldis.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Monday, 31 May 2010. Upper age-limit for owning a cell-phone? People are weird. Just as easy as that, people are weird. For those of you who doesn't know yet, I currently work in a call-centre for a Norwegian phone-company, one day more interesting than the next. This was the most interesting customer of the day:. Warning: If you don't want to see the selfish side of me, then please skip the next lines. Thank you! I fastly find out how impossible it is to tell her how to do it. Impossible. My dignity mig...

Not Unlike the Waves: February 2011
http://trolldis.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Saturday, 19 February 2011. I hope you did not find what you were looking for. I hope that it does not make me a bad person, actually I have several arguments (I would say strong arguments) that I am not a bad person:. I have the dignity to hide it when I laugh of people falling on their butt on the ice. When Jehovah's Witnesses ring the doorbell, I do not slam the door in their faces. Are you thinking what I'm thinking? What is she even doing still? I will be sure to announce when someone stumbled upon ...

Not Unlike the Waves: Hopeless Intentions: Trolldis during Academy Awards
http://trolldis.blogspot.com/2011/03/hopeless-intentions-trolldis-during.html
Tuesday, 1 March 2011. Hopeless Intentions: Trolldis during Academy Awards. In my little world, intentions constantly. let's say it in a nice way compared to what it really is - gets totally fucked up. And this does not only apply to intentions that argue with my lazy lifestyle. You know how cleaning the apartment is a good idea before you actually pick up the bucket and start washing? Or how training tomorrow. Is a good idea today? What I intended to do. Look like a troll, I did not. Sleep like a rock -...

Not Unlike the Waves: July 2010
http://trolldis.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 20 July 2010. It's official - I rock. In German, this is. You know the exams I took 6 weeks ago? That I, yours truly, rock. Of course I wanted to blog about this the second I got to know it, but. uhm. I was busy, you know, partying all night, and soaking my brains out. (in a world where "party" means "sleep", and "soaking my brains out" means something like. snoring. Yes, I know, I'm so graceful). I rock this much:. Kann sich in studienbezogenen Alltagssituationen (u. a. Bericht für Stip...Kann ...

Not Unlike the Waves: September 2010
http://trolldis.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Friday, 3 September 2010. Yes, she´s alive. Truth, though I understand that you can't quite believe it. I was kinda busy lately dealing with angry customers at work, and stressing. Alot. See, the last months was the months where I was constantly nervous about the future. Would Uni Leipzig accept me? And what on earth would I do if not? But, ladies and gentlemen, I hereby announce that I am in Germany, searching for an apartment. So yes. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). There was an error in this gadget.

Not Unlike the Waves: October 2010
http://trolldis.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 26 October 2010. When talking to friends and family from Norway there are always some questions that gets asked over and over again. How are you? How do you like it in Germany? I'm fine, uni is awesome, and I love Germany. Then there's a last question. How's your German? Not fine, not awesome, and certainly not lovable. So this question is harder to answer. Of course they are curious, how fast does it get better? Does it even get better at all? Unfortunately (and yes, this is unfortunate) I have...

Not Unlike the Waves: With the intention of turning your Sunday-frown upside down
http://trolldis.blogspot.com/2011/02/with-intention-of-turning-your-sunday.html
Sunday, 6 February 2011. With the intention of turning your Sunday-frown upside down. This particular Sunday you are all in luck, this is, if you like British humour. If you do not like British humour, I suggest you locate the cross in the upper right corner and click it. I would really appreciate it, cause guess what, I do not wanna be the person who made the crappy Sunday even crappier. That would make me the devil or something! And you know readers, that's just not me. Have a nice evening, everyone :).

Not Unlike the Waves: Saying Goodbye
http://trolldis.blogspot.com/2011/02/saying-goodbye.html
Wednesday, 16 February 2011. It seems like yesterday. We sat around the table, drinking beer, laughing, having fun. Little did I know, that this evening would lead to something dreadful. Little did I know that what seemed like a triviality, would have major consequences. Knowing that you could have done something makes it even harder to say goodbye. But it is inevitable, at a certain point you simply cannot refuse to open your eyes - see the facts - accept the facts. I'm drawing my fingers through you on...
