Benedicte

I'm a 17 year old girl from Norway, and like most people I find it quite hard to write a text about myself. I don't know which information to include, what to exclude, sometimes I write too little, or I write too much and detailed and end up deleting everything. In less than a month I'll be finished with twelth grade, next year is my last year at 'high school'. My birthday is August 2nd, and as you may (for some reason) have calculated, I was born in 1991.

Sometimes I probably spend too much time at once on my computer, but I also use my spare time on reading and photography. I read different kinds of books, but some of my favourites are fantasy series like Harry Potter, Twilight and His Dark Materials (very original, I know). I also like this Norwegian series called Phenomena. Of course there are many non-fantasy books I like, but if I were to list them all it would probably be too much. But I'll mentioned some of them; Sofie's World (Jostein Gaarder), The True and Outstanding Adventures of the Hunt Sisters (Elisabeth Robinson), The Host (Stephenie Meyer. Okay, kinda fantasy one...) and Atonement (Ian McEwan), even though that last one made me cry like shit at the end. I'm sort of easily effected by stuff in books, movies etc. Seing people on tv crying usually make my eyes water, can't help it.

I also like knitting, crocheting and that kind of stuff, but I don't really do it that often. Some periods I'm quite creative with my yarn and sticks, but other periods are my dry, so to say. Scrapbooking is also something I like to do, but that's also more like in periods, because I tend to print out loooooads of images at once, cut them out and scrapbook them all, then I take a "break" for a while. Collecting cds, on the other hand, is something I do more or less all the time. At least quite frequently. I currently have about 130++ cds, but there's so much amazingly great music out there, and I want it all to be placed in my cdshelf. Shelves.

Probably enough about my hobbies? I also like to hang out with friends and just have fun, of course, after all, I am a teenager. Shopping is also fun, always. I have one job at the moment, but I need another one to finance all my cravings, ah, cruel, cruel world.
