Where I will be next year?
Where I will be next year? That’s a very good question! I have no idea of where I would be after spending one year in America. After next semester I will be done with my education and I will officially be a teacher. I am not sure if I am ready to be one yet, I do not feel ready yet. But who knows, things might change during a semester and I will work as a teacher next year. If I want to work as a teacher another question comes up; where do I want to work? Back home I have nothing holding me back where I come from except my parents. All my friends have moved away like I have, so what is there to do up in the mountains where my parents live? Since I still does not feel ready to teach, maybe I should study some more. I would not mind, I like being a student. No responsibilities except doing homework and show up for classes. As a teacher you have a lot of responsibilities, you are responsible of teaching small kids how to read, write and many other things. I really do not where I will be next year, but one thing is for sure; I want to be with my boyfriend. He lives in Belize in Central America, so maybe I will spend next year under a palm tree on an island in the Caribbean Sea drinking coconut water? I only have one request for next year; I want to be some were good in my life.

News- Is It Useful?
News can be a very useful source of information, but there is also a lot of useless news. Like some newspapers are full of gossip about celebrities and their lives. Whether this news is useful or useless depends on the person who read it. Different people think different things are important. For some people reading news about Britney Spears and Paris Hilton might be useful and interesting, but for other people this kind of news can mean nothing. I do not think gossip should have a place in a newspaper; a newspaper should be about news. Of course if something happens to a very famous person and it has an impact on the rest of the world it should be in the newspapers, but mainly I think it should be pure news. It seems like the newspapers are getting more and more articles about gossip, specially the once you can read online. I guess there is a reason why the gossip is there; people want to read about that. But now enough about gossip, the news are so much more than that. News can be really useful; they can show people what’s going on in the world. I think news can be a good way of open peoples mind and make us realize what is going on around the world. By reading about what happens in the rest of the word it can put your own situation and country in new or different perspective. I think it is important to see what is going on in the rest of the world, and news is a good way of showing that.

Letting Go
“Letting Go” is a ballade, a love song about letting go it is sung by the artist Kim Sozzi. She actually made her success with this Goosebumps making song. In this song she sings about that she wants her lover to let her go because she is ready to let him go. She tries to explain that she cannot do that if he continues to come back to her all the time. Here are the lyrics of the song:
Don't write
Don't show up in the middle of the night
You know that we needed
Some time and space to breathe
I still recall the words you said to me
It's what you did not say that sets me free
Now how can I find peace of mind when you keep coming back again?
It's okay for you to play this game of seesaw with my head
Now it hurts too much
And it hits too hard
And I won't play this part
Don't call me
Don't write
Don't show up in the middle of the night.
You know that
We needed
Some time and space to breathe
So now I say the things I want to say
Sometimes it's better letting go this wayI'll always know
Down in my soul
We really had so far to go
I've given all I had to give
And now it's time for me to live
And I won't look back
And I won't regret
Though hurts like hell
Someday I will forget
Don't call me
Don't write
Don't show up in the middle of the night
You know that
We needed
Some time and space to breathe
To say that you've been thinkin
Cause I know it's just the drinkin
It's funny how we seem to end up here
I never thought I'd see this soul disappear
Don't call me
Don't write
Don't show up in the middle of the night
You know that
We needed Some time and space to breathe
And this is letting go
This is letting go
This is letting go
This is letting go
Don't call me
Don't write
Don't show up in the middle of the night
You know that
We needed
Some time and space to breathe
Don't call me
Don't write
Don't show up in the middle of the night
You know that
We needed
Some time and space to breathe
To say that you've been thinking
Cause I know it's just the drinking
This song was one of the sound tracks that were played in the TV-show Dawsons Creek, a popular TV-show from the 90s. The song is a sweet sentimental pop ballade about love and letting the past and your lover to go. To let someone go is not always an easy thing, but sometimes you just have to, if you want to move on with your life.

What I Spend Money On
What I spend money on? That is a very good question. To be honest that is something I have asked myself many times. The money always seems to disappear and I do not know where they went. I wish I was more economic so I kould know how I could spend my money the best way.
Back home in Norway most of my money goes to bills; house rent, car assurance, gas to the car and a lot of mending on my car. There always seem to be something wrong with my car and I spend so much money on it back home. Here I do not have to worry about mending cause I do not have a car. So apparently I use a lot more money when I am in Norway compare to the United States. Everything is so cheap here! Especially the cloths, I am so glad that I am studying in a state where they do not have taxes on cloths:) I think cloths are the thing I spend most money on here, cloths and traveling. While I am here I want to travel around and see as much as possible, so a lot of my money goes to plane tickets and other expenses for traveling.
After thinking a little about what I spend my money on, I actually know were "all" of it went went.
