Edit: I, at the moment, don’t have much interest into blogging if it wasn’t for clothes, shoes or shopping. So this website will be more or less in hiatus until I feel like blogging about serious issues again. In the meantime, do expect shallow and materialistic entries.

I don’t have a clue

Well, I’m completely and utterly without any ideas as what to write about. I haven’t been feeling like blogging at all lately if it wasn’t for my shoe obsession, which most people do not seem to share. I guess most people do not even care the minimal about shoes, so why blogging about them when my blog isn’t a shoe/fashion blog?

I’m facing two huge exams at the of May and I keep having troubles sitting my ass down to read. I just can’t. In less than three weeks, we’re going to London. My first time in London, and that I’m pretty excited about. But that’s in the middle of my “exam reading time”, and it might stress me out too. Besides the trip to London, sunny days, shoes and waffles there’s nothing else that sparks my interest as of now. I’m in the middle of some sort of 28 years old crisis when I don’t know what I’m going to do with my life. I’m sure I don’t wanna be a fitness instructor for the rest of my life. It’s pretty fun to have classes, but I have too many now and I don’t seem to obtain motivation nor inspiration anywhere. That translates into me not being able to motivate the participants and I should/would like to. I’m bored. I want to do something else but I don’t have the courage to actually do it. Mostly because I don’t know what I want. I should be working my ass off at school and yet I’m not. I don’t think I’ve read more than 8 chapters altogether. I like the subjects and what they’re about, but I can’t get myself to work with them.

I used to think that being into fitness and working-out defined me as a person. I was proud of having the career I have and I wanted to continue stepping up and down the step case for the rest of my life. Now I don’t know if I want to quit, continue with much less classes a week so I could find some joy into having them. I don’t want to suck, nobody does, and right now I believe I do a little.

I’ll be hopefully finishing my bachelor degree in one year. I wonder what kind of job I may get once I’m done. I’m not really sure about what I want to do except not working with my body so much as my body needs to rest. I thought I wanted to do research. It’s fair quiet/calm and I could work both at an office or at home. It’s calmer than having to rush to different fitness studios and I for once want a normal eight hours job. But for being a researcher I have to work harder at school and get better grades. I should rather work besides studying than studying besides working.

I hope soon I’ll find out what to do with my life cause I can’t quit everything I’ve started without finishing it. There must be something there for me in which I’m good at and what I enjoy doing.

Shoot ‘em up! Grumpy old lady

Tuesday, 15 April 2008 / Permalink / Category: Bitching

If some of you have seen the movie Shoot ‘em up, you’ll know what I’m talking about. It’s all about people’s disgusting habits you hate so much, those which get you on the nerves.

The other day I was sitting on the bus, and the man who sat in the seat behind me had a cold. That man kept coughing on my neck, and the sound of the mucus coming up and down his nostrils every time he breathed made me crazy. Ewwwwww. Is it so hard to get yourself some Kleenex? It would’ve been much better had the man blown his nose. The noise and thought of it irritated and disgusted me, and I didn’t have my mobile phone’s earphones to cover the noise with music.

Yesterday, again sitting on the bus, the boy behind me kept chewing gum without closing his mouth. I hate the noise...it’s eh...argghhh. The same when people eat a banana in your ear. It gives me shivers down my spine and I don’t know why I find more and more things that irritate me. I am pretty much becoming a grumpy old lady and I haven’t reached my 30s yet. I hate everything:

  1. People walking slowly when I’m on a hurry and they won’t step aside to let me go.
  2. People blocking a door when I’m coming in or out some place (i.e. the shopping mall). Hello!?? You’re not thin as a needle. Let other people go by!
  3. People eating with their mouths open and making sounds as they chew.
  4. People not taking any consideration whatsoever to other citizens: pushing, stepping onto, getting in their way and so on...
  5. People talking LOUDLY on their cell while on the bus. I want peace!
  6. People standing on chairs, benches and the like. I want a clean place to sit my ass down on, and chairs aren’t supposed to be standing on, you moron!
  7. People sneaking in the queue. Have some culture and decency.
  8. People’s spelling and grammar errors, specially in Norwegian. It irritates me. Learn how to write!
  9. Getting a SMS advertisement when I’ve asked my mobile to be blocked from receiving those.
  10. People smoking on your face when you’re clearly a non smoker.
  11. People smoking inside the bus stop. Yes I know we’re outdoors, but I was sitting there first and I shouldn’t need to move away cause you’re smoking. You came after me, you move your ass away!
  12. And there’s plenty more...

Like I said, these small things for some people are very annoying for me. I wonder if I’m becoming one of those ladies who hates everyone, stays inside all day and has a gazillion cats. Is it cause I’m getting old or cause I’m just downright intolerant? Tell me you hate this too!
