I just dropped my friend off at the airport to catch his flight to Oslo. I should have been going with him, but of course had to cancel. Waah now I'm upset.

No money. At last minute I was tempted to get a flight as I had £100 sitting in the bank but I'd probably not have much money to spend. Although apparently the main plan by my friends over there was for us to all go to the top of a mountain around Bergen and have a BBQ while listening to Windir and King of Trolls. Heh.

Haha well from what i've heard the Mario Kart for Wii is actually quite lousy, it was dumbed-down to appeal to a bigger audience 
.
Anyway, I also have a DS, and Mario Kart. This is my friend code, maybe we can have a race or two someday?
Well there are a lot of great games for DS... Zelda, Castlevania, Pokemon, Advance Wars, and oh so many more.
Friend code:

589340
If you don't know where it is, it's in Wi-Fi -> Friend Code -> Confirm Friend Code
Can't wait for Metal Gear 4... and I don't own a PS3, which makes the wait longer and much, much, much more horrible and agonizing .

Spiffy, eh?
This is most depressing. I LOOOOOOVE Double Dash. I bought a Gamecube just for that game.Haha well from what i've heard the Mario Kart for Wii is actually quite lousy, it was dumbed-down to appeal to a bigger audience
I am sad, I put all the Borknagar albums on my new iPod except Empircism because the CD is too scratched for me to rip it. I listened to it too much I guess.....

Yeah, they took out the 2 guys per Kart thing and everything.
Here's a good review:

Good for your new iPod, bad for you Bork cd. But in a way it's really cool hehe, played so many times it got scratched, first time I hear that hehe
. Can't you repair it? . You can still download it anyhow. Or you can buy another one if you want, it's not that expensive I'd reckon

It's alright though. I will be going in November for Screamfest (if my debit card arrives so I can buy tickets before they sell out!). I'll be going alone for that which will be scary as hell, but to be honest the only thing I'm really worried about is how I go about booking a hotel or a hostel for the few nights.
Despite people on these boards telling me Norwegians are really nice, my friend has been living in Bergen for a couple of months now and he was telling me people are incredibly hostile towards Foreigners, even another friend who visited for a while said she hated it because people were rude everywhere she went.
Really? I mean I'll try and pick up Norwegian before I go so I don't just scream "IGNORANT ENGLISH TOURIST" but I'm a bit scared now. :C

Fair enough, Bergen was hardly appealing anyway apart from that Edvard Grieg was from there. Guess I'll check out Trondheim instead.

Don't worry, you'll be with us. And if there's one people the Norwegians like it's the ones who oppressed them for a century

You still want to meet me? I thought you were going to be hating me because of the shit on my forums >_> Thanks <3 I think Kazaum is coming too so he'll have to come with us even if he doesn't want to.
Also Kazaum Hem Kahn might be coming with me to Screamfest if he doesn't go to BOA that is, that should be fun

No man, of course I won't. I only hate the retards over there. That I don't understand how you choose your friends is an entirely different matter.

Pathetic really.
But I'm glad you can remain friends with me despite their shit though, thanks <3

Funny thing, when I was in Bergen I was treated quite nice actually
. Only the gal at the hostel was a bit of a bitch, but besides that, everything was fine. I even said "hi" to a little girl (5 at the most), and she waved her hand back! Not before running to her daddy 
.Anyway, Bergen is really nice, IMO it's a must if you're visiting Norge. It's really a beautiful city, it has lots of things to see (crazy drunk Norwegian girls pissing in the middle of the street... :Smokin:
). You really have to go, I recommend taking the train from Oslo to Bergen, quite a trip. Nothing like getting off the train for a sec at the top of the mountains, having a picture taken, and still have the time to get on the train

Oh well, time does a lot, it seems. I'm just happy you don't share their fondness of netspeak and stupidity
Did Heinz leave or did you throw him out by the way?

Well, Trondheim isn't any better...
Heh, just kidding. You should go to Bergen if you get the chance (and Trondheim too for that matter.) The city is beautiful and well worth a visit.
Although, there IS some truth to what I said earlier...

They're not like that really. Heinz is a Historian and currently studying to be a Lawyer so he's hardly stupid; we've just always spoken in netspeak ironically.
I would never throw him out, I think he's left though because I banned his friend "Kurt" the guy who was spamming porn everywhere. Heinz got irritated because I had no set rules and my reason for banning was "It's NSFW". Heinz retaliated by reporting every thread that included curse words or racist words saying "NSFW" and I refused to delete them, so he got pissed off that I was playing favourites or something. Childish really. Got to love internet drama.
I guess Bergen does look okay and a few days wouldn't hurt, I'll just keep to myself as always. Really does depend who I can drag along with me, it's always better to share the experience.

I know he's not unintelligent, but he sure as hell is stupid. And yeah, I know the ironic netspeak. But when done that much, it's just dumb. But whatever, let's let sleeping dragons lie.
