Bitches got told

I just lost a bit of respect for people in this town...

Today, two girls, apparently from my sister's class, were standing outside of the supermarket as I walked out of it. I walked past them to find a spot to wait for my mother to come pick me up, since she drove me there. Then, I noticed the girls starting to imitate the way I walk, which of course is a bit different from how they walk since I am born with Arthrogryposis in both my legs and have had several surgeries in my childhood because of that. They were laughing and looking to see if I noticed, then continued laughing and imitating my walk.

They should not have done that. 

They've laughed at me as I've passed them and given me the finger and such things before, and I've ignored it. But this time, I DID NOT just sit back and take it. My first reaction was shock, then I decided that I'm not going to take crap from anyone, or let anyone make me feel bad for the way I look again. Because to my annoyance, their actions DID make me feel bad, and I got reminded of all the similar episodes I've had in my past.

I just got home to my mom's place in this little village after an amazing year at a boarding school, where everyone accepted everyone, so getting back to THIS was pretty shocking for me. I guess I had forgotten that human beings can be idiots. Well, anyway, I told them off. I screamed, I cursed, and apparently, I ended up scaring the living fuck out of those girls, because in the end, they were actually running away from me. There were other people around too, and the girls got so embarrassed and humiliated that they didn't know what to do. I hope they are fucking embarrassed. I hope they are fucking scared. I hope they have learned not to mess with me. What is wrong with people. Seriously, making fun of people with disabilities? Or anyone, for that matter?! Did they think I would just accept that???

I guess they won't make fun of my walk again. And if they do, I am not going to react any different than this time. I know that was a major wasting of my energy, I probably should have just ignored them, but I will not lie and say that it didn't feel great to stand up for myself. If ignoring them only tells them it's OK to do things like that, then I'm sure as hell not going to stay silent!

This episode made me realize that I had actually forgotten about the cruelties of mankind while I was at Toten Folkehøgskole. I want to thank all those wonderful people in that school for that!!

OK I'm done with my rant. I just needed to get that out of my system.

I'm going to Desucon this year 8'D

The summer has really started in Norway! It's been super warm for a couple of days in a row now, it's great!!

Today, I ate healthy chocolate(it actually said that on the package so I guess it is) and worked out for 35 minutes. It's been a while since I worked out properly, so it was nice to dust off the Orbitrek and get started for the summer! With some Kpop, Cpop and Jpop in the background, I get a great workout from that machine! I don't have any strict weight loss goals anymore, now it's just for keeping things up and if I lose some kgs in the process, I'm not complaining. As long as I don't get below 65 kgs. That's kind of my limit. lol

Next month will be exciting! I'm going to attend DesuCon - Norway's big annual Japan and sci-fi convention, at June 23rd & 24th!!! I didn't go least year, but I was there the year before that, when Versailles -Philharmonic Quintet- performed - my favorite Jrock & Visual Kei band!!! I'm the leader for their Norwegian Street Team, and I was lucky enough to actually meet the guys after the concert at a bar! They're all really cool! ヾ(＠°▽°＠)ﾉ

Hizaki patted my head and gave me a real man-hug. <3 And Masashi is huge! 

At this year's DesuCon, another Visual kei group is going to perform, their name is Anli Pollicino, I've never heard of them before, but their music is actually pretty cool!!

I know a lot of people are going to cosplay at DesuCon. I want to cosplay too, but I have no idea who I should cosplay! I don't have the time to make a costume from scratch and I can't be Naruto again(mainly because the pants fitted me when I was 17, but not anymore... haha). With some dress modifications, I could be Elizabeth from Kuroshitsuji, since I already have the dress. 

But I need to sew it in considerably, since I weighed a lot more when I ordered it than I do now. I could also do Japanese street-fashion, such as gothic lolita or gyaru. Well, I've got a month to decide XD 

I'm really looking forward to this event, since many of the people I know are going, and I'm going to stay at my former classmate Tonje's place! SHE IS SO AWESOME IT'S GONNA BE AMAZING.

☆*ﾟ ゜ﾟ*☆*ﾟ ゜ﾟ*☆*ﾟ ゜ﾟ*☆*ﾟ ゜ﾟ*

Also, starting from July 24th, I've got a two-week summer job at my former school!! I'll be an assistant teacher for a summer-school project together with three other of my former schoolmates, among them Kjersti <3 :D I'm really looking forward to it! Not only will I get some extra money this summer, I'll also get my first job-experience at the age of 21. lol. Gotta start sometime.

An update from the middle of Norway! I write long blogposts

The day before yesterday I had my History exam - 

and I passed that one too!!!

I have now passed two of the four exams I have to take in order for me to get a High School-diploma, which again allows me to take the course in Japan!!!

The question I got on the exam was about German newer history, something I had read some about, but not ALL. I thought I would get a much wider subject, so I basically read through both of the History books, studying a little bit about everything. But I managed to get a 4(equal to a C), and it means I passed and I'm super hyped about that!!!

☆*ﾟ ゜ﾟ*☆*ﾟ ゜ﾟ*☆*ﾟ ゜ﾟ*☆*ﾟ ゜ﾟ*

I also sent the application documents in paper to my school in Kyoto, and the next time they will contact me, is about accommodations! 

Having lived in a dorm-style room for a year in my last school, I almost can't wait to have my own apartment again, in Japan, for me to decorate as I wish~ 

I will make it so beautiful, I'll have flowers, matching kitchen appliances, cute bedding and I'll make cute bento every day 8'D 

Speaking of Japan, I talked to my man yesterday. I got to see him on webcam. It's been 2 months since we met. I was so happy just to see his face on webcam~♥♥♥

I mean, he is just so handsome and I can't even. I'm so in love. I just love him and I miss him like hell and now it's (only) 4 months until we can meet again!!

School's out, and the graduation day was super sad. A lot of tears were shed, but we will keep in touch through internet and meet up from time to time ^^

And we'll always have our fandoms. During this year, I've discovered the whole BBC's Sherlock fandom(thanks to Linda, Tanita and Mia), more Kpop, Cpop and Jpop groups(thanks to Siri and Kjersti), more Jrock(thanks to Tonje) and anime(thanks to everyone)

Me and Kjersti, Siri, Julie and Marie from my class did a cover dance of the song "Sherlock" by SHINee~ We practiced almost every day for weeks, for us it was a very nice thing to do together at the very end of the year.(also, Sherlock was released while we were on our class trip in Korea!!) 

Here's a video of our performance on the graduation day, filmed by Heidi, an awesome girl from my school~

I'm in the front, doing Minho's parts. We haven't made a complete copy of the dance, since quite honestly, there are some moves I am physically unable to do, due to my Arthrogryposis. But we were creative and some parts are individualized and I still think the result was awesome! This dance and this song will forever remind me of my gorgeous girls ^__^

I'm missing my people already, sitting here in my mother's house... I think I'm gonna watch some J-drama.

See you later~ (*＾ー＾)ノ

Last day of school

Yesterday I had my first exam. An oral exam in Norwegian. I had prepared like hell, and I was so nervous, but the teachers asked me mostly things I knew and I PASSED!!!!!!!! THANK YOU WORLD

I got a 4, which is equal to a C in most other countries~~~ 

This means I've passed the most difficult of my four exams!!! Not passing is not an option, actually, because it's the only way I can get a high school diploma, which I NEED to be able to study in Japan in October. So I'm gonna do this!!!!!!!

I feel like I can do anything now!! Sohappyrightnow

As I was waiting for the bus to go back to my dorm after my exam, I spotted a tiny MOUSE by my feet! O__O It was trying to find shelter in my bag, since it was raining like hell. 

Also, when I sat down on the bench at the bus-stop, I noticed this right next to where I was sitting:

WOW THANK YOU STRANGER lol (this is funny because my name is Lena)

Before my exam started, my school went to a theme park here in Norway, called Hunderfossen, which is basically the land of trolls and fairytales :D It was awesome! 

Fairytale castle and a tractor. You know you're in Norway when... XD

We found THE MOST creepy robot-princess. She reminded me of the Japanese nurse robot...

In these past weeks Kjersti, Julie, Marie, Siri and me have practiced the dance of SHINee's new song "Sherlock"~ We're going to perform it on the graduation day(tomorrow!!)

There is no difference. lol

Now for some serious and sad news. Today is the last day at my Folk High school, and we've all been cleaning our rooms thoroughly. Two days ago, my lovely mother and little brother came here to pick up my stuff, so now my room is basically empty.. It's so weird to be leaving here!!! All the people I've met, and lived with for the past year in this dorm, the classtrip to Asia, all the crazy and awesome stuff we have done over this time. I'm going to miss it!!! 

I LOVE YOU GUYS, WE WILL ALWAYS BE KKJ FAMILY.

Well, now my room is clean and empty and tomorrow I will be home with my family again. It will be nice to spend time with my family, but I can't really imagine not being surrounded by all these wonderful people here at Toten Folkehøgskole!!! This year has been truly awesome and amazing and I will never forget it!!!

Oh, and I'm totally hooked on Instagram these days. Expect lots of instagramme'd photos on this blog from now on.
