Before I go

I'm not a person who stresses easily, but today I'm going away to the mountains, I just got a letter from the publishing company who keeps teasing me, one from the Comic museum of Norway (I'll probably be able to enter their archives, yayy!), I've got about a hundred (ok, 15) PETA to answer on Ameba before I go, oh and I had to tranlsate two new pages of Like Totally Teenage Lovers and post today, since I won't be around to post it tomorrow, which is the normal update day.
I promised I'd get better, right? :D

Luckily, there weren't alot of translating to do on these pages, they're all about the international language of love ^_-
Now make sure to read both 29 and 30!

By the way, the Like Totally blog really woulnd't mind some more official followers ;)

Going going more one step!

I've had a super fun week!

Because our friend Fran came from England, we all stayed at Cat and Jacks place. In the weekend we had stalls at the big nerd convention in Oslo, and during the week we've been drawing, having a barbeque, baked cake, been drunk and shopped.
I'll write some more about it later (I promise!) and post some pictures, but having fun wears you out and I'm tired now. Also, I have to pack up my shit, 'cause I'm still at Cats place, and it's like ten in the evening.
It doesn't get dark in Norway, but I should be getting home soon.

But! I will post the artsies I've been doing today and yesterday!
Fran helped me out with Photoshop, and also got me an updated version, and I feel like I'm finally making progress!
 I used some pictures I already had scannet in my computer.
 

The top one is a doll I made a mascot fom Frans stall, Pincandy. 

This one....

... I did today, and it's a little bit more advanced.
It's an early take on Kagerou, the main character of "The Garden Underground", which is the comic I'm planning to concentrate on when Like Totally is finished. Actually I'm already concentrating a lot on it.
I did make two versions of the drawing, one with the title in English as well, but then I didn't pay attentiopn while saving and I deleted it :p But who cares, right?

I get so impatient at the end of a digital drawing, I feel like I'm gonna explode! Everything takes so long!
But I'm finally really happy with the result. I know it's not anywhere near brilliant, but at least I feel that I can now do the things I initially wanted to use Photoshop for, which is things like simple dolls and character presentations.

Seminar and semi-new comic project

So, it's been a while again. If it's any comfort I don't really have much time to update my Norwegian blogs these days. I've got so much to do, and when I'm really busy I always start wanting to do other things. So then I have to make time to do both the other things AND the things I'm supposed to do :p

Last weekend I went to that seminar for Egmont, which is probably the biggest publishing company that do comics in Norway (actually, that doesn't say much, because allthough we are rumored to be the second most comic-reading country in the world -guess who number one is- it's mostly comic strips and humor, mostly in the funny pages).

We had a course with Norways number one Donald Duck artist, Arild Midthun, who is always delightfully dedicated :D I don't agree with absolutely everything he sais, but he is remarkable, and have probably been the biggest influence on my comicing, out of the "teachers and mentors" I have had through the years.

He tought us about processes, what's important and what we shouldn't emphasize so much on (which is also a very important lesson), and he thought us about scanning. There was a lot of talk about colouring settings and things, which doesn't apply to me much, since I have no big ambitions about making comics in colour, but since I'm learning Photoshop, it was still usefull.

And then he gave us some candid inside-information about just how much controll Disney demands over absolutely every detail in the Donald Duck comics published in Norway XD

After that each of the participants had their comics thoroughly dissecated on a big screen. The people who mostly talked, ofcourse, were Alild and the editors.

Some of the critique was kind of harh, but I didn't feel hurt by any of it, actually. Allthough listening to the others I was terrified of what they would say when they got to mine.

I had brought "Skinnene Synger" (Singing Railwaytracks, ?) and a new short story I did for this months Bobla, called "Nå sees vi aldri mer" (Now we'll never meet again).

I realize I have to get less lazy with drawings. I often feel that since I make like 6-7 drawings (panels) in ONE page, each and every one of them can't be perfect, but especially with a 9-pager, why shouldn't they?

One person also told me that sometimes she didn't really know whether it was alright to laugh at my humor or not, because the rest of the content seemed so serious. I wouldn't really know what to do about that. This is the style I write, and the pieces of the story comes to me very naturally. After it's written down I choose what to cut and what to keep, ofcourse, but I don't want to make it ALL serious. They described my comics as "poetic" all the time, which makes me really really happy, but it's not what I've really tried to go for. I've just written the stories, without really categorizing. The humour is there for the people who see it (and I'm glad to see that peole who don't know me also get it), but if you don't understand when it's supposed to be funny, you can still enjoy it.

I was also told by one of the editors that the ending of Skinnene synger didn't have a strong enough point to prove why the characters acted the way they did. At first I though "Damn, he's right". I thought I'd been too into the universe of this story (talk more about it futher down) and didn't consider the reader. But thinking more about it I think he's overthinking it. The factor of the unknown (which he congratulated me on earlier in the story) challanges the reader to imagine it. Using very big words here:p

Why would people act this way just because of that poster, right?

Ok, sorry, talking a lot about a comic that I havn't translated yet.

So anyway, good advice. Some of it that I'll take, some of it that I probably won't.

It was also really nice to get to know these editors, finally! This will make it a lot easier to send them mails and stuff, and maybe harder for them to ignore us XD

I don't think they're scary anymore at all, they were really nice people!

And afterwards we went out to a pub, and got free food and drink on the companys bill :D

Got to talk alot with the other participants. I only slightly knew one of them from before, and it was surprising how much fun we had. Comicers are often quite awkward people, me included, but in a pub situation I'm not just a comicer anymore.

We were three girls, out of ten people, and only me and ONE of them made non-humours serieses. Unfortunately the two other girls were very shy. They didn't drink alcohol (not a bad thing, but you know) and they could hardly eat the food they ordered. Much less make conversation. It's too bad, 'cause I would love to have gotten to know them.

Everyone else had prepared portopholios though... All I had was some originals to Like Totally, that I'd brought in case I had time to draw :p

BUT! One of the editors was very interested in seeing the script for the stroy that I made Skinnene Synger out from, so I guess I will send it to her.

The story is about a future where musicians have gone on a strike and music has become so taboo that noone listens to it. Our main character, Kagerou, quit his band because of the "revolution", but is now completely miserable.

He discovers that a work buddy listens to music and gets really angry, but Lynx takes him to an underground live house and tries to get him back into music.

 There is a group called the Winniepeg-organisation, who made up a bunch of laws and who helps people remember why music is wrong. And then there are the people at the live house, who refuse to live without music, but who stay hidden. Kagerou is kind of in the middle.

 Lol, just getting in to Copic markers, these are still just sketches.

I'm kinda nervous about sending the script, first of all 'cause it's kind of a crazy story, but hey, it's fantasy right? Secondly, I've never written a script for anyone to see except myself. I don't like showing things to people before it's done. A comic just doesn't look very good when it's only in words and not in pictures, I don't write down all the descriptions and details that are gonna be in the pictures, so it's just actiona and dialogue. Kind of looks like really bad literature or fanfiction :p
But I am gonna send it! Can't miss up on this chance.

 Only it's not completely finished yet... I've been writing like crazy.

This is a doodle I did during the seminar. It's of two of the characters from another story I'm writing.

 Seems it's not going to be these guys who take over after Like Totally is done after all.
Here's another drawing form the story:

Artsy fartsy news!

As usual, sorry for not updating more, but I can assure you that not much is going on these days. I think I'm generally less happy than I've been in years, but let's not dwell on that! Let's go to the news, because they're the good kind!

First of all, I got a mail from the Kemi-people (that's the all Scandinavian comic contest I entered a while back), saying that I got 4.th place!
I didn't even know they had a 4.th XD But I'm really happy!
It doesn, unfortunately mean, that I won't be able to post "Skinnene Synger" (The Tracks are singing ?:P) for you here, which is really a shame, 'cause it's probobly one of the best comics I ever have and ever will make, at least theme-and story vice.

But! it does mean that it will be printed in something called the Kemi competition anthology, and also I will receive some tax free mooneys (゜▽、゜)
Maybe it'll be translated into english, I don't know. One of the criteria was that the series be in a Nordig language, but the price ceremony or whatever is in Finland.
Too bad it would cost me most of my prize money to go, I've never been to Finland before.

Second, this:

No news really, just a drawing I finished yeasterday that I was quite happy with. Since it's kind of small for my exhibition in May (A4), I think I'll bring it to Desu-con (anime convention) this year, if we do realize our plans of having a stand there this year. We meaning Cat and I.

Third, this:

Also just a drawing I finished that I wanted to show off. God I love pencils! Why did I kind of forget how fabulous pencils are, all by themselves!?
This picture is A3, and I am planning to bring to the exhibition, though I'm not sure the general art people in my part of the country are into this kind of thing.
I've been hung up on twisted angels, right. Still am ^^ And I tried to incorporate it with visual kei, but I realized it's kind of hard, since I'm not much into the classic visual kei anymore. I was really happy with it anyway though.

Last post on the agenda today, and this is something you might actually be interested in :p
I finally got around to making a blog for Like Totally Teenage Lovers!

The plan was to make it in Comicpress, but the fact is that I'm an idiot when it comes to computers, and even following the tutorials I couldn't make it happen, so until I have the time to sit down and have friend teach me the knacks, it will be another blogspot blog:
http://liekttly.blogspot.com

Followers and comments are very much apreciated! Also, tell all your friends, ofcourse :p
I also changed the posting date to Tuesday, by the way. That's the same day that I update the original(Norwegian) comic, so it'll be a bit more routine...ish.

So! See ya! Got tons to do right now^o^/

All apologies

Hi! So sorry for not being a very active blogger lately. Even less than ususal actually :p
It seems the book that I'm illustrating for finally came through, so I have to work hard on finishing this. I really hope it works out this time, and I get as much money for it as I want. That will fix a lot of my problems for a certain matter.
Also, I kinda left my camera on the train the other day, and I don't like blogging without pictures. I called the lost and found though, and they've got it, so it's all alright :D

And here are the pages for this week. I'm actually publishing them on time, well, it's still Thursday in Norway^^
Hope you like it!

I'm working on setting up a page for this comic now, using a system that will make it easier to read. By suggestion from my friend Fran :D
Only I'm a retard when it comes to computers, so I'll have to get someone to help me woth it over the weekend.
Back to my busy busy life! Almost finished with todays illustration, and I actually feel like staying up all night cartooning, but we'll see about that :p

Like Totally Teenage Lovers 11-12

I didn't forget!
Ok, I did forget. Maybe Thursday is a very bad day for publishing, since I always seem to forget. Bayme I should change it to Thuesday, which is the same day I publish the new pages on my Norwegian blog, that would make it easier to remember both ^^
Anyway, here's the next two pages of Like Totally teenage lovers. Page 12 really didn't pose any problems on the translating part:p Hope you like them!


I am now just inking page 40 and 41, so I'm about half way through the story. I can't believe how long it's taken me XD Will try to work faster in the future, all though there are loooots of things to do!

Just got the message that the childrens books I've been working on illustrations for will be published, but we don't have much time... at the same time, I've got an exhibition to make another 7 images for, need to finish the piece for my bros restaurant, and also make a 10 pager by the end of this month, that I havn't even started sketching for ...

Anyway, the trip to Japan in May is cancelled, which is probably for the best. Right now we need to focus on helping out there, and I don't think going there on vacation will be helping out much. That and, if there is a risk of radiation I wouldn't be doing me or my future children any favours.
I've been doing a little volunteering for the Red Cross, wish I had time to do more right now!

Like Totally. Page 9 and 10.

Here are the next two pages.


I have sprained my thumb, I'm not kidding >_< Except for that there are various things going on in my life right now, maybe I will post about it tomorrow, or in the weekend^^

Send me your story!

I've been drawing this over the last two days. It's A3, so it took quite some time! It's going to be a piece of an even larger collage.
When people see things like this the first thing they mention is usually the hair.
If you havn't noticed I have a lot of fun with drawing hair, especially cursly hair. The thing about this kind of drawing is that it's not really hard, it just takes a lot of time. I usually come away surprised when I'm finished, because it looks really cool, and I didn't really sweat that much^^

Two other things!
Bobla, which is a collection by the Oslo comicers group I'm in, is now out in stores! I hope lots of people will buy it!
It is a collection of independent 1 to 10 pages stories, all made by amature artists, and it's really good!I need to start paying more attention to the other comicers around me!

Anyway, for the next issue, they urge us to do collaborations. In other words, the story and the drawings will be done by different people. I've never done this before, and I'm not really sure I'm going to have the time to submit anything, but I want to try.
So, I'm asking you to send me your story!

If you have something that you feel would make a good 1 to 10 pages comic, send it to me. I won't laugh at you or critisize you, unless I'm interested, then I might send suggestions and questions. If I decide to draw your story your name will, ofcourse be on the credits, and if you're not a Norwegian speaker I will also do an English version and post it here^^
My mail adress is hoshifune @ gmail . com
(without the spaces, ofcourse ^^) anything is welcome!

Like Totally Teenage Thursday!

It's Like Totally Teenage Thursday! I realize though that it kinda depends on where you are in the world wether it's Thursday or not, but I can only do as much ^^
Gahh, paint has fucked up some of the lines, I have got to start doing the editing in Photoshop but it's just such a pain -_-;
Here are todays pages anyway, hope you enjoy them!


So, Magpie. In the Norwegian version his name is Kråka, which mean s crow, but it didn't have the right ring in English...
It's supposed to be something that can be said in a soft pet namey way, but which really is a kind of uncute and odd thing to petname your baby.
If nayone has any suggestions though, I am willing to hear them ^-^

In search of the local Erotic Boutique

So yes, long time since I posted anything except the comic, I know.
Last week, my friend Kimmie came to visit, and we had an unhealthy few days, staying in most of the time and eating sweets, which I usually try not to eat during the week.
Waffles by my dad. They're awsome, especially on a cold winters night.
The one day we did go out, we were actually only going to the big supermarked in town, but then Kimmie insisted he's find the local sex shop, 'cause he wants to buy some japanese rope-nonsense, which is apparently "an art" Not just bondage". Whatever.
Last week kind of reminded me of how strange Norwegians often think the Japanese are. I mean, Japan IS strange. It still is to me too, but not in the way that we're led to believe over here.
Anyway, I'd never seen a sex shop in our town, and we couldn't find it either. Kimmie even went in to a hair salon and asked directions XD I hid outside, the whole thing reminded me of an episode from Osaka this Christmas, but I don't think you guys want to hear about that :p
Seems there was no sex shop (I'm sorry, erotic boutique) in town after all, but we'd walked all the way up to the theatre, so Kimmie offered topay for a movie ticket (I am really broke), and we ended up seeing the Grit.
I'd seen it reviewed on TV a few days earlier, and it seemes cool. And it was! I'm actually not a fan of the Cohens, some of their movies just don't take it all the way to the hype, but I really liked this one! Except the ending maybe, which was a bit of an anticlimax, but I'm not going to say more about it, 'cause I think everyone should go see it!
Kimmie, from when we hung out at the supermarked, waiting for the movie to start. His face looks so sreious here, but he's really not that kind of guy XD
I'm sure it's old news, but I had no idea you could buy Duff beer now f^^;
On our way home we encountered an ice sculpture of sorts... Yes.

And then there was the home made banana split, no wonder my trousers feel tighter this week O__O
Anyway, it was really nice having someone to talk to and not be alone and isolated in my office all the time. We saw almost everything I have of animé, some of it I havn't watched for years! Not EVA though, it still makes me miss Nuts. And most of my other movies as well.
The thing about my friend here though, is that he's like a 14 year old in his head. I'm not joking, and I'm not exagerating either. I'm just fascinated (and sometimes annoyed) at how he can ... NOT KNOW all the things he doesn't know, and how he's very unreflected on a lot of things that comes completely natural to most other people I know. Makes me realize how much I actually got out of high school!

Well, I did get a lot of comicing done, and I also made this:
It's a drawing I've been thinking about for a while, and I'm quite happy with how it turned out.
I now only have eight drawings left before I've finished my quota for the exhibit in May :D

This week I borrowed my dads debit card (no, seriously, he just lent it to me) and went into Oslo. This is how poor I am, look:
I've had to mend my tights in several places. Ok, both knees, 'cause I fell down those stairs at the train station in Osaka XD
I didn't go to crazy with the card, 'cause I know my dad will give me money for any reasonable needs I have, if I can just make myself ask, but I did treat myself to food, and some money for saving and a 7-day travel pass, so this week I'll be moving around!
This is what our house looks like right now. The wether is crazy! Hot-cold-hot-cold. The snow is coming down the roof every time, it's a miracle it hasn't come down on anybodys head yet!
Even if everything outside is covered in white though, I think this weather kinda gives a tingle of spring. I mean, very soon everything's going to be sloshy and discusting, and after that we'll actually be able to see the sphalt again!
I really can't wait for spring ^^

On another note, I tried to dye my hair brown the other day. How hard can it be right?
I don't know if it's because my hair is so fucked up(it really is!) or because the dye was so old (it really was!) or maybe it's just because I've got tons of bad karma (seriously, tons!), but it kinda turned... red... or orange...
I havn't been this colours since I was a little mall goth, hanging out at the manga store and trading Pokemon cards XD I don't hate red hair though, but I don't think it's for me. It doesn't go well with pink and just generally doesn't suit my style. I guess it's fitting then, that I'm in this huge identity crisis right now.
Yesterdays outfit (the one in the picture with that gourgious smile on my face ^^;) was supposed to be oshare kei, but I soon realized I looked more like a circus gyaruo XD
ハロ。どこ行くの？ちょっと遊ばない？ご飯でも行かない？

サーカスに連れて行くぜ。

Love and peace out, I've got a traveling pass to make use of XD

I didn't forget!

I just didn't know what day of the week it was! No, for real...
Anyway, sorry I'm late. And here's yesterdays Like Totally.
Just a little note: This is the title page, and it might seem a bit odd when you read the story two pages in a week, but if you read it all together (like it's made for you to do) it's not that odd^^


Presenting Minami Imai ^-^
Thanks for reading, I promise not to be late next week!

Like Totally Teenage lovers page 3-4

Time for the next two pages of "Like Totally Teenage lovers"!
You might notice that the font have changed, that's just 'cause I kinda can't remember what font I used the last time, and I can't find it :p
If you happen to know the name of that font, please tell me. Also, feel free to tell me what you think of this one. I wanted one that's kind og freehand-ish, but also easy to read. Is this too "fancy"?



Yes, ehmm. I do hate it when I read a magazine and the machine text is just pasted on top of something. I'm talking about the panel where he reads the phone mail. Originally, ofcourse, it was written in angle with the phone screen, in Norwegian, but since I am now just editing on the computer and I'm too lazy and low tech to really learn how to do the angle-writing thing f^^; Hope you forgive me, and please notice how I have bothered to make the letters two size bigger for each line. See? I care!
Also, the * indicates the untranslated bit in the last panel. As I went about writing this in Norwegian, I aim at an audience who doesn't nesescarily inderstand Japanese, so everything of importance (like the language settings on his phone) I do in Norwegian. I can't stand when people just assume that the audience knows Japanese or French for that matter.
Anyway, I didn't want to go in and fidget with something that's so much part of the artwork, so I made a little shortcut.
Again, hope you enjoyed this, and feel free to look up the earlier pages by looking up the tag #likttly
More to come next week!

A little sumthin' sumthin' for Valentine

Made a little Valentine thing, with characters from "Like Totally..."
I hardly ever do this, but I guess I should. Get some practice on drawing my characters, since I'll be back to drawing it from this week on, because I've finished the contest series^^
This little ditty has absolutely nothing to do with the actual story. It's the first time I draw these characters for almost three months but I think I've got them down.
Hope you like it :p
Happy merry V-day everyone!

Like Totally Teenage Lovers introduction

I decided to start translating my comic "Like Totally Teenage Lovers". It's one I'm currently drawing and running on my Norwegian art blog as well. It's the first time I try running a comic before I've finished it (well, since I started these blogs anyway), and I'm pretty determined to do it right. The story and sketching is mostly finished (except for a few tweeks), and it will be at a total of around 80 pages, which probably don't sound like much, but to me it's the longest project I've attempted since I got serious. I try not to be too ambitious, seeing as I use a lot of time on my comics. A lot of time on drawing, but also on writing and sketching.
Unfortionately I've had to have a little break while I went to Japan, and now while drawing an entry for a contest. Most likely that will be done this week, and I'll keep drawing Like Totally next week^^

A little introduction
"Like Totally Teenage Lovers" is a drama, the main character is Akira Ishiguro, who randomly meets an old classmate, during another boring summer vacation. Various things will force him to grab himself by the neck and take some actions, and will make him think through a few things about himself and his life. There's also a little mystery involved^^
While writing it the title was "Babysitter", but it sounds kinda kinky and also lame in Norwegian, so I decided to name it after a line in a song by my favourite band, 12012. The song's called "Secret Festival", and don't bother listening for that lyric because it's completely indecipherable XD
The characters are not teenagers anymore, but the idea fits a lot of things in the comic, so I jsut fell in love with this title.
Story was thought out and mostly written over the summer I lived in my boyfriends apartment in Japan, and most of the simple dialogue was thought out in Japanese and then translated into Norwegian. To translate it into English I've tried to go back to the lines I originally thought out in Japanese, to make it less processed (or whatever :p).

I'll try to post up every Thursday from now on^^
Sorry about any poor English that might come in the future, and commenting is much appreciated, all though just reading it (and telling your friends!!) is even more important to me!
Wow, that was a lot of talk. So I'll start out with the first two pages.

Trains and music

So, what have I been up to the last couple of days, except waiting for mail and watching so much Fringe I'm now scared to find shapeshifters under my bed and Nina Sharp in my closet?
Allright, I'll tell you. I've been comicing like a bastard.

I was made aware of the Kemi-contest the other day. It's a comic contest for the whole of Scandinavia, in two categorys. Digital and paper-comics. Of course I'll be handing in for the last one, and the chances are really slim, I know, but you can't win anything less you try and I have won enough contests in Norway to make my head grow out of propotion. So I figured I'd try.

The criterias are that the comic not be longer than 12 pages, it has to be in a nordic language and that it hasn't been published anywhere before. Quite conveniently I had done a very thorough job on an 8-page comic I called "Skinnene Synger"(The trax are singing). Well, I'd written it and sketched it and sketched it over maybe two times, which I am usually way too lazy to do^^
It was supposed to be my contrubtion to a comic book project in Oslo, but I didn't have the time to start before going to Japan.
Now I'm actually done with the outlining in three days, I've been good.
After this much boring information I wish I could actually show you something, but it's supposed to be "unreleased", even on the internet. So I'll give you the character sketches...
Mmyes, very interesting, I know. Sorry. And the notes have absolutely nothing to do with this story^^

If I by any chance should get a place in the contest I can't publish this here, but if I don't I will translate it and post it for you^o^

Memememe

My first post!

My name is Inger, and I have been writing my blog in norwegian for quite some time now. Thought I'd give it a try to write one in english too, partly since I have some good friends who don't speak norwegian, but anyone is welcome to read! Long as you have an open mind.

Sometimes I smile too, I just wanted to post a picture of this pretty dress ^^

So here's a little introduction of myself.

I live in Norway (so my english might not be so great). I live with my dad and is currently working at a grocery store, but not much longer ^^ I quit in November and is going to Japan for various fun.

My dream job would be something I could do from home or maybe in an office where I wouldn't have to deal with costumers or cranky schizofrenic bosses. I want to be an artist, maybe an illustrator or a comic artist.

I'm not so fond of digital art, but I love drawing and making comics, and I occationally upload them, so there will be some on here :D

I used to be a japanese student and spent one and a half year at the JIU in Chiba, Japan. By the way, Chiba is NOT Tokyo!w

Through some good friends and romantic entaglements I learned to love it in Japan, and have been back again and again, even though it's mighty costy. Not sure I would like to live there permanently though.

With all this it probably sounds like I want to be a manga artist. I don't.I could write a loooong post about that, but maybe later. For now, some facts...

My favorite fashion styles:

hime, lolita, mori girl and oshare kei.

I generally respond to very feminine and cute things, but I kind of have "two sides", because sometimes I feel like dressing cute-punk or hip hop-ish oshare kei.

I'm not a gyaru, even though I like alot of things considered gyaru-ish, since I fell for the hime style. I say this because I don't have the gyaru-attitude and I wouldn't describe my style as sexy. Doesn't mean I have anything against gyarus though, ofcourse :D

Favorite brand at the moment is definitely LIZ LISA.

My favorite bands:

12012, Zoro, MUCC, One Ok Rock, Bug Lug.

I mostly listen to Visual Kei, but I'm not really a big generist. If I like it, I listen to it, if I can dance to it, I dance to it, if it's fun to sing I'll sing it. Japanese or none-japanese. However, that doesn't mean I'll nesesserily get really into it and buy CD's. I am a fan of CD's though ^^

My Favorite movies at the moment:

Pans Labyrinth and 28 Days Later.

I love horror, and I love/hate zombies. I like watching bad horror movies as well as good ones. That being said it doesn't HAVE to be horror, but I admit I easily shy away from schi-fi, fantasy and romantic comedies, unless I get some kind of credible recomendition.

Feel free to recomend!^^

My favorite actors:

Tsukamoto Takashi, Oguri Shun, Cillian Murphy, Keira Knightly, Narimiya Hiroki and ofcourse Johnny Depp.

Other than that... I don't smoke XD And I like animals and cute things. My favourite color is pink (big surprise) and pastels, and I'm obsessed with roses. I'm not really big on Hello Kitty, but I love Rilakkuma, and especially Korilakkuma.

I imagine I'm a very easy person to find presents for, because I have so many likes. I am also kind of obsessive.

I also have a bunch of dislikes ofcourse, but I'm sure they'll naturally come out in my blog posts. Don't really feel like listing them all now, I think ^^

Ok, that was ALOT of talking about myself. As for this blog, I will try to update it almost in phase with my norwegian blogs, but at the moment I can't make any promises, since it all takes alot of time, and I'm a busy busy girl.
