2009

Happy New Year everyone :)

Here are some photos of my Christmas :) Let's start with one of Ole Einar.

He visited from the 27th to the 31st, then we went together to Oslo for New Year's and to his family in Skien (2 hours South of Oslo) on the 1st of January.


I met up with Eline, Ola and Marita - the three people I went to Madascar with last year.
And Christen and Marianne were home from the States. The three men went together quite nicely. :)
We had a lovely Christmas celebration together.

I was amazed to see so much underneeth the Christmas tree, compared to last year when I was in Madagascar.
And I met my Maria again. :)

Christmas is over, a new year has begun and I am happy. I'm enjoying life and enjoying the people who are in it!
All the best for 2009 - make the most out of your dreams! :)

I feel it in my fingers, I feel it in my toes

It's the first of December! :)
When I got up from bed today, two very pleasant surprises met me.
1) Eline had made me an Advent-calender for the remaining days here in Kristiansand! :)
2) There was snow on the ground! Perfect timing! :)


And now we've decorated the house so it feels more like Christmas. Red curtains and purple candles. Yeay!

Sadly enough I have two exams awaiting, making the Christmas-spirit wait even longer... Please pray for me Friday 5th and Friday 12th of December. :)

My man :-)

His name is Ole Einar. He has captured my heart. :-)
23 years old, from the Eastern part of Norway. The most fantastic guy ever! Beautiful smile, wonderful eyes, a good Christian, kind, helpful, sweet, fantastic and great! :-) :-)
He makes me so happy! :-)

I like cooking food for him :-)

The Good Muslim

A girl was going from her house to the town centre. It was dark. She stood waiting for the bus and the rain was poring down, making her soked all through her clothes. As the bus came, it just drove right past the girl, who was waving her hands to make it stop. The busdriver didn't even look at her, but just drove straight on to the next busstop. So the girl took to her feet and ran after the vehicle. She saw some people on the other busstop and shouted "Stop the bus!" but it just drove on.

As the girl reached the next stop, there was only a woman with a hidjab standing there. The Muslim looked at the girl and was moved with pity. She said to her that she had tried to stop the bus, but that the driver would not listen to her. They looked at each other and shook their heads in disappointment. Then the Muslim said to the girl: "Are you going to town?" The girl nodded.
"I am waiting for my husband," said the Muslim. "He is going to take me to town. Do you want a ride?" The girl looked at her gratefully and accepted the kind gesture.

When the car pulled over, the two women sat down inside it. The two Muslims drove the girl safely to the street were she wanted to go.

"Which of these, do you think, was a neighbor to the girl who was lost in the rain? The busdriver or the Muslim who showed her mercy?"
Jesus would say: "Go and do likewise."

This happened to me yesterday and the whole situation reminded me of the Good Samaritan. It is so important to remember to love your neighbor as yourself!

Over to another thing --> Here are some pictures from my last weekend in Oslo.

Friends from Hald

Christina's 25th Birthdayparty.

Autumn is Falling

Eline and I bought two golden fish yesterday. Our new roommates are called Nono and Tot, named after my Madagascar-Eline and Torstein. They lighten up our appartment and are always there when we come home.

The past weekend we had a henparty for Sigrid. We took her on a plane to Oslo, and she had no clue where she was or where she was going. We had a wonderful weekend - women only!

Now I'm back in the 3rd grade I teach. They're really noisy but I think we have them in the palm of our hand soon. :) I like teaching them, but at the end of the day I'm really tired.

Here you are

I realize that I haven't posted a real post for a long time.
I've been doing a lot since the 1st of September.

I've met my dear Sigrid again! She's getting married the 6th of December!

I've done a lot of studying. Sometimes we work together in a group, like here.

We're saving power, so it's a bit cold inside...

Jan dropped by with stuff from Stavanger.


We had a house party and invited some of our new friends.


Our friend Torstein visited and helped us out a lot.Last Tuesday I was at KIA (Christian International Assosiation) to help with Norwegian-classes. I enjoyed that. I've also started in a Cellgroup (quite similar to a Biblegroup), which I think will be good for developing my Christian faith.
I've been in practice a week as a teacher. Our job was to observe routines, the pupils and the lessons and help out when we were needed. In two weeks time we will be the ones who will teach. For three whole weeks. I can hardly wait! :)
I've also joined KRIK (CHRISC), Christian Sports Contact. We excercise every Friday and have other social gatherings once in a while. I really like that, and being active in CHRISC might give me a cheap trip to Uganda next summer...!

This weekend was supposed to be a relazxing one, since the past week was really stressfull. But I realize that I have tons of pages to read befor next week's lectures. So I'm still very busy... Hopefully I will go to Salem, the church we've started in, this evening.
I'm happy, but busy!

Coming soon on Inki's Bubble

I'm in a hurry now, but don't stop reading my blog just because the last post was posted a while ago.

If you hang on and check this site during the first few days, you can read about my practice-period in a Children School last week, how I almost fell off my chair at school today and what crazy stuff I did on Tuesday afternoon...

You wait and see. Don't forget Inki's Bubble

-because you're in it!
