XOXO

I just watched the last Gossip Girl episode and it was a very satisfying ending. The last few minutes are 5 years in the future and it made me very happy. They said it was a two hour episode and it kind of was, the first 40 minutes was the last episode and the next part were interviews with the cast, the director and the writers.

It was so much fun. I loved all the shocking moments done in typical Gossip Girl fashion, and speaking of fashion, that has come to be so iconic for the show, there were a lot of big moments there too.


Kristen Bell is the voice of Gossip Girl, as you probably know, and she's in the episode, she's not Gossip Girl though. I hope that's not too much of a spoiler. I was wondering if it was going to be her and we would see clips of previous episodes and see her in the background or something and think "why didn't I see her sooner?!", but no, thankfully not.

I laughed several times, the characters were more typical themselves than ever, the writing is just so good in this show. Characters we haven't seen in a while like Jenny and Eric were in it, there was also a whole new character in the group called Henry, you'll know what I mean when you see it. Georgina was in it a lot, but as a likable character for once without changing her personality.

Yes, that's Vera Wang!

All in all I'm very happy and it was a worthy ending of an amazing show:)

It's been snowing a lot the last few days until right now, now it's raining. All the lakes around are covered in ice, it's really pretty. I hope the rain doesn't take all the snow, I was hoping for a white christmas, but we'll see, I like the rain too so it's ok. To the left you see my dad and I in town. Bergen likes modern art I think, at least you find funny looking stuff everywhere like that upside down triangle with sort of a mirror that was outside a building. I like it though, perfect for a photograph! This was taken when my dad got his iPhone 5. I'm jealous and Ken is even more jealous, haha, he's dying to get one. 

I've been watching Gossip Girl the day after it airs and next episode is the very last episode ever. I couldn't be more excited and sad. It's sad that the story is going to be over, but they've said that the person behind Gossip Girl is going to be revealed the last episode which is very exciting. So is the fact that the whole story with all it's twists and turns and complicated situations is going to be put to an end and we're going to (hopefully) get all the answers we're all dying to know. The last episode ended very dramatically in old Hollywood style, big 'cliffhanger', I can't wait to see what happens. I've also heard rumors that Georgina is going to hook up with someone the last episode, but I take it all with a pinch of salt. I really hope Gossip Girl is actually going to be revealed and they're not all like "I told you it was a secret I'll never tell". I have no idea who I'd be happy with being Gossip Girl, I always thought Dorota made sense in a way, but I hope not, I'm hoping for a real omg moment. I hope Blair and Chuck will get to be together as well, their story has turned in to a nice love story. I really hope Serena pulls herself together and stop being such a weirdo, too. 

Other than that I'm enjoying learning to cook new things. Today I'm making ham. I learned that when my grandma was here. Tomorrow I'm making chicken fillets filled with mozzarella and pesto rolled in a specific type of ham, I'm not quite sure how it's going to turn out yet. I thankfully have salmon that I know how to make in case I mess it up completely, haha. I'm also obsessed with smoothies. I make some everyday, I usually buy a smoothie mix they have at the local store that has like small bags with frozen fruits and berries so I can "mix and match", it's fun.

Yesterday I had my first driving lesson too, it was so much fun. For some reason I love driving, I don't know why I haven't started on my license sooner. Well, I do know.. I moved to Spain shortly after I had turned 18, but I'm so excited I can do it now. I can't wait to have it. I got one teacher I'll have all the time, he seems really nice. He'll make sure I get everything done and learn things properly. The cars they had there were a lot newer and easier to drive than the cars I've been driving before, which was nice.

Here's some photos from the last few days:)

Found this lovely pin-up lady on the side of a coca-cola car:D 

My mum has a way with her breakfasts

I'm an overly attached girlfriend

Beautiful

I found this crazy horse at Ikea the other day

It was so funny looking

My new cups

I went to Ikea with my mum, she has a lot still to get for her new apartment. I found these awesome retro looking cups. They are my new smoothie cups and I just love them. I also got a matching plate so I can serve cupcakes or whatever else I want to make with the smoothies, that makes me excited!

B sharp!

Hi:)

Today the artists performing on the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show was announced! Quite exciting. It'll be Rihanna, Justin Bieber and Bruno Mars. I wonder which songs they will be performing? It's airing 4th of December on CBS in America and I'm excited as always. I hope they are quick to air it in Norway too. I wonder if Lima will be there as she gave birth just a few weeks ago to another beautiful daughter called Sienna. I assume not, but she's my favorite so I'm hoping. It's going to be in New York this year, one of my favorite cities in the world. Ambrosio and Lima both instagramed the photo to the right this morning. It's always exciting to wake up to good news! They have revealed three drawings of outfits that'll be shown this year, you can find them here.


Yesterday Ken, Mandy, Bernie(Mandy's friend) and I sent up sky lanterns. Bernie had one, she wrote her wishes on it and we tried to send it up and it wasn't quite successful! It ended up like this even tough Mandy ran after it trying to make it fly, it was a funny sight.

Thankfully we had another one with warm wishes for Ken's sister Cat who lives in California. We all wrote a little something on it and filmed the whole process to send it to her. That lantern was a lot more successful.

Sky lanterns are an Asian tradition where you make a wish and by letting go of the lantern you also let go of the negative feelings from the past and have good luck in the future. They are used a lot in weddings. Chinese troops used them to send signals to one another during the war too.

We went down to Killiney Beach and did it there. The moon was stunning!

We are leaving for Norway in less than a week now, I'm getting excited and nervous at the same time. I'm happy I don't have much to do, I can pretty much relax until we leave, the only thing I need to do is repack because I have packed way too many things and it would cost a fortune in overweight at the airport. Thankfully we are flying through Copenhagen on the way to Bergen as there are no direct flights between Dublin and Bergen. I'm happy about it because when you fly through Oslo you have to get your luggage there and check in again which always results in lost flights and double the luggage overweight pay, it's all happened way to many times.

I'm watching The Simpsons with Ken these days, we're on season six already, I'm enjoying it a lot and I'm catching up on Gossip Girl, I just started again on season four because I can never remember where I stopped watching two years ago. I had almost forgotten how good GG is it's like catching up with old friends.

That's it for today, hope you're having a good week!

xoxo
