2009: a summary (part two)

Sunday, December 20th, 2009

Here’s part two of my year-in-review :)

July:

My best friend got engaged, and I made her a survival kit…

I worked in a tile shop and had to wear sturdy shoes… I absolutely hated it.

I photographed giant rhubarb…

I turned a toothbrush holder into an earring stand, which later got featured on ikea hacker, livemodern, lifehacker, and shelterpop. I should obviously hack stuff from ikea more often! The original post can be found here.

I visited my family for a brief week…

I made a bracelet…

And I quit the tile store job.


August:

In August I bought a new pet fish, Petronella…

I made some drawings…

I photographed a Coldplay concert…

And got a new job! Supplies were purchased.

September:

In September I debated whether or not to get bangs cut. I decided against it.

I got my first proper pay check and bought beautiful shoes…

And it rained. A lot.

October:

Winter came…

A pretty friend tried on wedding gowns for the very first time…

I was given my new favorite necklace…

And got to wear a crown at work for a whole day!

November:

In November I went to the aquarium with my aunt and two cousins…

I got sick and was put on sick leave for three weeks, two of which were spent at home with my family…

Where I took a lot of photos. About 90% of them had Luna in them…

… while the rest of them were experiments with long exposures.

Marius and I flew to Oslo and saw my favourite band…

…And we made it back to Bergen just in time for December.


December:

Christmas spirit snuck upon us…

White hair

I lost my beloved Grandpa… <3  He was the greatest..

And now I’m going home for Christmas! That was my year so far, I hope you liked my little summaries :)

I don’t mind the cold..

.. When it results in weather like this!

I honestly cannot remember the last time we had a white Christmas! But sure enough, the weather report says snow, cold, snow, cold, snow, snow, snow for the entire holiday.

I would treat you to a longer post, But seeing as we slept till 1.30pm (!!!!!) today, there’s still so much I have to do before I can sit down and be lazy. We’re leaving for Oslo (again) tomorrow morning, so we have to do the whole Christmas apartment scrub-down thing today. I think that has to be one of my new year resolutions – be less of a slob!

Okay, Marius is giving me looks now, so I guess I have to start cleaning. Have a wonderful 4th Sunday of advent! :)
