With the new trend where everybody has a informative footer in their e-mail I thought I should get one too. I'll be signing all e-mail with this from now on:
The information contained in this message may be CONFIDENTIAL and is intended for the addressee only. Any unauthorised use, dissemination of the information or copying of this message is prohibited. Actually that's just a lot of old bollocks. I have no control over how you manage your mail and if you re-send something that was meant confidential the only thing I can do is moan like a little bitch. If you are not the addressee, please notify the sender immediately by return e-mail and delete this message. Actually you won't bother with that either, just make sure you keep the ridicule to a minimum.
Also, I care about the environment and I think you should too. So please consider earth if you want to print this e-mail. I mean, the content is pretty fantastic, but is it really worth printing out? Probably yes, but since I care so much about the secure management of a media that's totally insecure, and the environment to make a footer for my emails it will take more space on the paper, thus killing more trees.
Anyway, thank you.

Last night me and some friends went to party. Thursdays is the partyday here. First when we arrived at the student pub, there was no one there. What to do? Find the best place to sit and drink.
After a while people start to show up, and I meet some people I've talked to before. While exchaning phone numbers (drunk, might have given away the number to the queen for all I know) the fire alarm goes off. We go out, come back in and then the really funny shit started.
Me and my roommate start chatting with this girl and start to make up stories about each other. I was a 28 nurse student, part rabbit, part indian (yes, I said my name was Babaghanoush) and that I was engaged with a rabbit. My roommate was part eskimo, part sami and hadn't lost his virginity because it wasn't acceptable for his tribe to have sex before marriage.
The girl bought the whole thing, and went dancing with my roommate. I went off laughing my ass off.

If you're reading this drivel, I'm fairly certain that you know me. At least enough to know my name. If you don't, I'm a charming little Norwegian with a series of complexes, but that's how gods go.
I'm also a brilliant computer professional and a person with a keen need of challenges. Thus I need a certain level of satisfactory about what I do like most people. Sadly my previous job, which I left on friday, provided less of this in the past two year or so. This made me somewhat, increasingly bitter to say the least.
So what went wrong? I'm not sure, but at some point the challenges weren't that challenging, the tasks were not very giving and my responsibilities was slim to none. I had some, but I felt like I was in a rut.
Needless the say the situation was bad. I started to dislike my job, and used a lot of energy keeping up appearances at work. I knew that I needed to make a change at work to mend this quickly. Sadly, after looking for a while and many trials, I had to face facts. I needed to change scenes, which meant I was searching for jobs.
While doing the whole search I discovered something frightening; I was young (relative term) and hadn't gone to college. Apparently, HR (which I presume runs IT these days) doesn't take you seriously if you don't have a degree. Doesn't matter which degree, I could just as well had one in botany for all they cared. I also know that if I were older, I would get loads of offer despite my lack of a education.
Proper BS I thought, I don't want a entry-level phone human answering-machine gig at Wankers Inc. because I don't have a bachelors. If that's it, I'll take my bloody bachelors I thought. So here I am, preparing for college at the ripe age of 23, in the (awesome) field of "Information Security". A computer programming course/program/thing-ama-jig focusing on IT Security.
I hope this change gives me more time to do the things I..well forgot these last couple of years because of my focus on work. These include photography, writing, design, those pretty things that smell nice...you know...starts with a "w". Women, thats the one! Something I really hope I'll be devoting some time to, is this site. I miss the times were I could just play around with the dials and learn by doing. In the near future (I hope) when I recoup some of my energy (read: lazy) I WILL do that redesign. Until then, while I right now and then, the blue stays!

What the hell just happened here? Well here's the low-down.
I was fed-up with the old design, I decided to not update before I re-designed the site. However, the task is huge, it's a total teardown, and with a huge lack of energy the task was even harder.
Problem is; I really want to write more so I pulled this out of my ass. This design, albeit shabby at best, will be the design until the new site is up. Features and menu is stripped, and I've broken every coding- and design law there is. I haven't bothered testing it on other browsers. However, it's here to stay.
Also: not dead!
