About Me

Myspace Layouts by Pimp-My-Profile.com

Greetings, fellow spacers, now I'm here as well! Born in the year of 1982, melancolic, chocoholic, fond of red wine (that sounds so much better than alcoholic, doesn't it?), absolutely addicted to music, and slightly neurotic. I have two wonderful children, Isak 4 1/2 years old, and Heine, who was born on December 23rd 2007. I have a fantastic fiancé who is probably the most wonderful man alive, Morten. I love you! 3 I am studying to be a preschool teacher, . I love working with children. It's very challenging and can be exhausting from time to time, but the love, trust and happiness you get from being around kids all day, makes it all worth it.When I'm not working or studying, spending time with my family and friends is priority number one for me. Unfortunately, quite a few of the people I would like to spend as much time as possible with, live in other parts of the country. 1600 kilometers is quite a distance to overcome for a coffee, a hug or just a couple of hours chit-chatting over a beer.My blog, mostly in norwegian for those who are interested, can be found at:http://livastridsplass.blogspirit.com

My Interests

Music:

I listen to a lot of different music. I have a thing for female singer/songwriters, from happy, catchy and romantic feelgood-pop, to aggressive guitars and bitter lyrics about nasty ex-boyfriends. (We all have one of those, don't we?) Lyrics mean a lot to me when I listen to music, and I really like the lyrics of my favourite norwegian female artists.
