All apologies.

hiyall. whoever is still reading this blog. i am really really sorry for being so slow lately, and updating so unfrequently. maybe i can blame it on the summer. maybe i should blame it on global warming. whatever it is, i apologise for it. and also for writing anything interesting in the past months. ive just really gotten into Top 5 lists, and theyre a quick and easy way to keep this blog alive.. sort of. but dont fear, i will do my utmost to resume normal acticvity on this here blog as soon as school starts and life has some sort of structure to it. (thats in the beginning of september). im not giving any guarantees as to whats going to happen until then, but ill try to update occassionally to breath some life into my blog every once in a while. but ill be travelling quite a lot, so i doubt its gonna be anything earth shattering. but at least now you know what the deal-io is. so just be patient... and thank you to who ever still has some interest in what i have to say.

and btw, if anyones more interested in what the schools like etc... here you go. its in swedish...

Flight of The Conchords, Fly!

i just received one of the greatest pieces of news in a while. regarding entertainment. flight of the conchords, the 4th most popular folk comedy duo in new zealand, are gonna start their own TV show. called.. Flight of The Conchords. amazing. if you dont know who they are, go to youtube and search for flight of the conchords and watch at least "Jenny", "Hiphoppotamus vs. Rhymenocareous" & "Business Time". they are utterly fantastic. so if you havent heard of them, check them out immediately.

and here we have an ad for the upcoming TV show, which airs on HBO (!). starting 17th June.



also if you go to myspace you can see the entire episode before it airs. its sweet. well worth it.

"youre so beautiful you could be a part-time model. ...but youd have to keep your normal job."

ps. the editing of the amsterdam video is taking a bit longer than expected, i always seem to misjudge the amount of time it takes to import all the raw footage. but dont despair, i shall have it ready in the near future.

Just a little fun for a friday afternoon.

[just for the record: i loathe those things]
