I love it here.

Right now I am in New Orleans. I've been here for about five days, with one of those being a day of only travel. That day sucked so hard - with all the constant traveling. Boarding an airplane, getting of it, waiting in an airport for x number of hours and then rinse and repeat that two more times. The longest flight was 8 hours and 55 frakkin' minutes. I used to be afraid of flying but amazingly enough I didn't get nervous at all. I enjoyed the ride a lot. I got to see the Oscar winning "The Kings Speech". I loved that movie! I don't think that there is a better way to spend a flight than watching movies you are kind of too busy to see otherwise. If there ever was a city that I've fallen in love with instantly, it might just be New Orleans. The diversity and the multicolored and multifaceted city, just invites you in and lets you be a part of its history in a second, no questions asked. You can hang out in the French Quarter and visit the Roue Bourbon and...

Love my twitter

So, I have to admit. I'm in love with my twitter. I just think it's this really amazing tool, where you can vent about anything you want, in 140 characters. Follow other twitter accounts, tweet to celebrities whom you follow, and have them some times answer you. Link it up with your facebook and you never have to write on FB again. ;) Well, I use my twitter way more than my FB - because twitter doesn't take too much time to update. The only thing I feel FB is good for these days are mailing friends and putting up bigger links to funny things on the internet. You can follow me here: Ringgren I say all kinds of stuff, about videogames, movies, tv and anything else I find funny. Disclaimer: I don't follow back just because you start following me. I need some incentive to follow you back, a witty reply to something I've tweeted is always a good start. These days you can also find me posting on the TheNerdMachine community where I mostly post in Gaming or Movies . It...

23 days...

It's been exactly 23 days now, since my last post. This is in part because I have been SUPER stressed about my thesis. Whenever I sit down to work on it, I feel really tired and have no energy to do anything non-thesis related. Actually I also got an extension on it, so I now have until the 3rd of February which is good. I just can't wait to get it over with and get on with my life. This thesis limbo is really killing me, because I haven't had a lot of time to be social with my friends. That is also in part because I at the moment live in Sæby which is about 3o minutes by car to Aalborg, where University and all my friends are. Thankfully my brothers are home again, so I do interact with people. In other news, I have not been able to figure out what to do about my podcast. Since I'm almost certain I can go with my very good friend Mette on a trip to New Orleans in March, I hope to have by then figured out to do podcasts, so that we can document our journey to the Big Ea...

Stressed

Well, the podcast is teasing me a little bit so I'm holding off on that for the time being. I've been inquiring a friend of mine, about moving to Los Angeles, and he seems onboard to help me with making that a reality. I can't really express how much I want that. I've been wanting to move to Los Angeles for a long time, and now that I'm almost done with my masters I can finally see this coming to fruition (love that word by the way, how come the english language has so many awesome words?) Well, anywho I'm currently looking for employment over there and it's a real test of patience I must say. And with my masters it's really hard to figure out what to do, and what to apply for. Sigh. In other news, I'm not in a Christmas mood at all. Actually I'm really in an unhappy Christmas mood. It's like, everything in my world is pressing on the edge and trying to get my attention and I feel so uncoordinated, missing my family, writing on my master thes...

Appointments

I'm going to a contact-lense check this morning, and I'm looking forward to it, because these lenses have been annoying me a bit lately. Hopefully they tell me I can move down in strength. Actually what I really want is lasic eye surgery, but I haven't the money sadly. Update on the podcast. Well, the site I found IS free, but they put in commercials and I don't know if I'm happy about that. Maybe it will be fine for the first time, and later (when I have a job) I'll get a site where you pay and don't have any commercials interrupting. Well, now I'm about to go to my appointment. So I'll return later, with my podcast.

Early in the am.

I've been sitting at my computer since seven o'clock. Trying to figure out how to make my podcasts and how to put them up on my blog. I've finally found a place that is free, which I will start using later today when I've recorded my first podcast. It's going to be interesting I think. I hope that some people find this blog and are interested in what I'm doing and saying. All I want is to share how I feel and that we're all in this together, this world that we live in. I might be ranting right now... Hmmm. Off topic, there is SO much snow around my house right now, and even though I'm 26 years old I really want to go outside and play in it. Or make a snowman or something! Is that sad? Haha. Well I don't care, you're only as old as you feel right. And I'm such a nerdy kid inside. But I LOVE being a NERD. It's one of the things I was really ashamed of when I was younger, because I was a spaz and a half, never knew when to shut up. Hopefully...

Rehauling the blog.

Well well well. I'm doing something different from now in, since I've had an epiphany. I love my English language a lot more than my Danish. So I've decided that I will do my blog posts in English instead. I feel more at home in this language than I have ever done in Danish, even though it's my birth language. On with the actual blog post now. I've had a lot of life changing moments in this past month or so. I've reconnected with my Christian faith, I've gained a little more confidence regarding my abilities as a writer and a poet, and I've been branching out into reviewing and being really involved with a new forum that I've been a part of since it's inception. I feel that in a short time, I've became a much better version of my self and I try to be as true to myself as I can. I've been thinking about putting up a podcast, because I love writing in the English language, but I also love talking the language. I've lived in Scotland for...
