Let there be blog...

Why is it that I seem to be blank when I decide to write something on my blog?
Anyways it's the first of December and at the moment I am sitting all alone in m flat (which I do most of the time when I am in my flat seeing as I live on my own) wearing a dress with reindeers on it. My flat is almost completely devoid of Christmas stuff, as I can get a nice overdose of that at my parents' house (my mum is like a happy little child when it comes to Christmas, it's sweet actually). I've only gotten about 8 Christmas elves up and you don't even notice them.
Outside of my flat the city is covered in snow and has been since Friday 26th of November. I must admit snow is pretty but damn impractical when you have to travel on bike in it.
It's much nice to stay inside where it's cosy and warm (which it's not really here, I mean I did turn on the heat but now I need to wait for my flat to be reheated once again. I was a knob and turned it all down...).
Oh how I long to cuddle up with a good book and just not worry about anything else besides what's happening in the book.
See that's one of the great qualities of books they can transport you to faraway places even different wolds while you sit on your bum all safe and sound. Books are in a way portable worlds. It's amazing really how much power the written word wields.
And it's amazing how we human beings are able to communicate with one another, we have this ability from birth, the gift of absorbing language and then later using the language ourselves. The brain is such a fascinating thing/place.
Sorry about that but you see I am studying cognition at uni and really we are amazing creatures, all the things we can do (things we take for granted like reading and speaking).
I'll leave that topic for another time... And skip to something completely else.
If you didn't know I'm a bit of a weirdo... Well in this case it concerns my eating habits and how I change them, specifically when I change them.
For the last couple of years I've gone off sugar and I always do it in December. It's not hard for me to do and when I do I stick with it. Just like that I've decided to stick with a mainly vegetarian diet, I did it in 2009 in May and didn't touch meat for six months.
The point is not that I am excluding sugar and meat in my diet but mainly that I chose to do this in December xD
To some people that makes me crazy but you know what I don't mind. I can deal with crazy as it is already one of my "assets"...
My feet are cold and with that I'll take my leave oh dear internet of "mine".
So here I am signing out, Cora the cute knob...

P.S. Elphie I love and miss you. If I could have my wish I would be with you.
Thank you for everything and happy 1st December.

Neglect...

Yes I have been neglecting my blog and that seems to me to be quite a rude thing to do, yet I am a rude being so it comes naturally to me. Okay not really I just tend to not think of my blog and when I do I never seem to know what to type.
As with exams I've always done better in the oral ones compared with my written ones, I just like the face to face conversation I have and I can sort of feel where the exam is going/heading.
To sum it up I prefer speech over writing and I am ever so envious of those who do posses the gift of writing.
I suppose I could try harder and I know I could improve if I just kept at it but I would still never really be able to grab people as others do.

So enough of my whining about my shortcomings.
I can't wait for next week (yes I know it starts tomorrow but then I don't have uni)
You see I am excited about being back at uni again, we only had too weeks and then they had us write a paper of at last 25 pages (we were in groups) followed by an exam which took place, for my case at least, this Friday.
I am excited as the three books we have to get are all in English freaking "eb"! And it's about cognition :D
What I am not überly happy about is the fact we have to write four papers and then we have another exam in January, ahh the joys of uni... xD But if you overlook my complaining (it's in our human nature to whine and moaaaaan) I do love uni.
It's a whole other world compared to the one I still frequent. No one in my family has gone to uni and that goes for my friends too.
The joke at home is that if I get my degree I will have broken my social heritage. And that is sort of amusing xD

She sits by the window, idly stroking the cat's fur and ponders her future but it's all just a blur.
Father says she'll make him proud "just follow your heart and you'll never let me down"
But choices can be fickle and hard to make, take a wrong turn and your precious heart just might break...

I like my "just"s so excuse me xD
And I have no idea where that crap came from but as it takes up space I'll let it stay.

Bye bye for now this random Cora says.

The Google Game.

So ages ago I actually "did" the google game, except I never posted my "results" anywhere and now methinks it's about time to do so...

The Google Game:

Cora needs a white frog.
Cora looks like a girly girl dog with bows.
Cora says remember when I told you Aiden's a murder?...
Cora wants to change her wardrobe.
Cora does the grown-up jobs like shredding the chicken and soaking the noodles.
Cora hates your leading, deal with it already.
Cora asks why would women want to go on television to show their behind?...
Cora likes small cats and big dogs as well as olives.
Cora eats fruits from the trees of Africa.
Cora wears lots of outfits with mittens so she doesn't claw out her own eyes...
Cora was arrested for drinking an alcoholic beverage in public.
Cora love being in the kitchen but she always gets stuck doing the kid job like licking the spoon.

There you have it.
My mission is complete, well at least this one is.

Byyeeez

I do so not have the time to blog.

I really don't as I have to leave in 30 minutes... Yes this is the time I decide to turn on my computer and start a new entry, while listening to John Green rambling on youtube. And now is also the time I realize that I have basically nothing to say, so why on earth am I even typing?...
Oh yeah my 31 year old brother totally threw a "silent" fit today all because he is not allowed to borrow our parents' car while we are away in Spain. When confronted by the fact that he and his girlfriend have a car and Peter our other brother and his girlfriend doesn't have a car that work Allan retorted "Well they live in town" oh and then he went on about how I am allowed to use the car whenever I want to, which my mum answered with "No she doesn't, she drives for me when I need to go shopping and when she's at practice". BOOH YEAH! Well it is true, last time I borrowed the car where my parents weren't involved was when I drove to the movies with my "twin". Other than that I actually don't use it for other than the stuff my mum listed to my brother.
Well after he got a firm no from our mum, he just sat sulking on the sofa xD

Ahh he can be such a baby...

Anyways I really have to go (need to get changed and get something to eat before marching band)

Again short and pointless = me...

10/10-2010 (yes I am THAT original)

Trying (once again) to enter the world of blogging.
So here I am giving this world of words a go, but I fear that it shall be a feeble attempt on my side.
You see I have a fear that this blog will end up like the ones before it, as in ceasing to exist...
But for now let me say, hello lurkers and welcome to my blog.

I have no idea how often I will write, nor what I will write about and I am pretty sure it will be somewhat boring.
But if ever you feel like it you shall be more than welcome to read the utter crap that this blog will surely consist of.
As for a first post this is it... Short and not very insightful; sort of like me.

More shall hopefully follow (and my insane use of shall will end at some point...)
