When you live like I do

Xmas gifts!

I said I would share what I got for Xmas with you, but it was more than I can be bothered typing out. Therefore I will share with you three of the things more relevant to this blogs theme. I realize that the middle of January is a bit late for this, but I have been too lazy to photograph the items before now to be honest.

From one of my sisters part of her gift was "The Complete Sherlock Holmes" by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Look how awesome it looks! I have heard all the novels on audiobook, and now I can read them for myself!

From my other sister, part of her gift was cool accessories!
Anyone who knows me, and she obviously does, knows I'm obsessed with zebras and sculls. Weird combo I know, but that's just how it is.

 

Maybe I will bother to take pictures of more gifts later. It could be like a small blog series. We'll see. This is it for right now at least.

Day Planner

Since a new year has started I had to buy a new day planner. I love them so much! I have a weird thing for empty note books and new day planners.

This year I bought one in Oslo. And I took my time also. I looked trough a big table with day planners at the bookstore, my poor friends had to wait for probably 30 minutes. I just couldn't decide! But finally the choice fell on this one. It has a long time-line, which I wanted because I sometimes work late. It also has a note section and an assignments section. It's just perfect! I started writing in it today, and I can't wait to fill inn birthdays and other stuff.

 

Trying Tumblr

Well this is a weird one... I'm talking about my blog on my blog. But Tumblr isn't like your regular blog. Or, that was what I was told. So I decided that since I have become such an avid internet user, I should check it out. And it turns out my "sistah of anotha motha" also uses it, even better! So decided to find out how it is all done. Here is what Tumbler sais about itself:

Tumblr lets you effortlessly share anything. Post text, photos, quotes, links, music, and videos, from your browser, phone, desktop, email, or wherever you happen to be. You can customize everything, from colors, to your theme's HTML.
About Tumblr

And if you know me, you know that wasn't enough for me. So I turned to the site I always go to for internet questions: MakeUseOf
I right away found what I was looking for: How To Easily Create a Blog with Tumblr

So I did. Make a Tumblr blog that is (and here it is). It was pretty easy when using the above how-to-site. And I found out that half the clue with Tumblr is reposting what others have posted. Since I'm a very uncreative person this is great for me! It has this great feature where you search for tags and then you find posts you think fits how you see the world and what you are interested in, and then you reblog that. It should be a lot less time consuming than this kind of blog, when you don't have to write yourself. This is not the case, because you get so lost in time while browsing tags!

This is kind of the same project I have as the "learning Twitter" one. And I find I like this one too. Right now this blog is the hardest to keep up with, since I write most of it myself. But I keep at it for now, hoping I will become a better writer because of it.

But the conclusion is that I will keep the Tumblr blog too. I will see it there is a widget on this blog for Tumblr, thought I doubt it. It would be nice to have all my social sites collected though. (Except Facebook...I'm keeping that one private.)

 

New Beginnings

Hi there!

I decided to remove all the blog posts from this blog, and start over. I never was especially happy about it, so I kind of lost interest. But now I'm going to try something different. It won't be that much about me, but more about the things I like, and interesting/funny stuff I find on the internet.

I didn't delete all the posts from the old blog. And I will modify and post some of them. (PS: Sorry about the comments! They sadly will be lost.)
I have a lot of time on my hands these days, so this is me desperately trying to find something to do, hehe.

And with that I tell you all good night with Bedtime Bear from Care Bears.
