I know we are supposed to be so excited and happy and what-not for the new year and I am, really. It's just that time moves so fast I'm having a hard time keeping track. My life so far have been great in any way you can imagine. I have been so lucky, so damn lucky that it's hard to picture it any other way. And I'm so grateful for everything. It's just that I wish I could stop time. Just to be able to enjoy everything a bit more.
I remember being only eight, eight and free for responsibility, no concerns, no question about my life, no need for plans and calculations, no budget..well no money either though..Ten years ago I was innocent, naive and childish. I believed in unicorns and witches, fairies and angels. I thought that I one day would find a rope hanging down from the sky and that I would climb up there, listen to angels sing and children laugh. Santa was still real and the money that appeared at my night stand still came from the tooth fairy now one had yet seen, I was going to become a princess and a mermaid, my sister was still cutting off my Barbies' hair, I was still cutting holes in her clothes. Everything was normal. No bad guys and Prince Charming always came riding on his white, shiny horse in the end.
Now the happy endings are no guarantee, either is the white horse riding prince. If there is one he is either ugly as hell or too good to be true. Either or it's never going to end as in the fairy tales we so gullibly believed. I grew out of princess dresses and crowns, the fact that dad is Santa and mom the toothfairy is no longer so devestating. And all the ghosts and monsters from under my bed are on a permanent vacation at my uncle and aunt's place. Still ghosts seem to be haunting me, lost friends, forgotten pets and grandparents who kicked their bucket years back.
But who doesn't have creepy deamons lurking in their closets anyways...
About my red thread, yeah I guess I kinda threw it out the window...sorry.
Peace. Ida.

Hei Ida! Godt nytt år! Traff foreldrene dine i butikken, og de fortalte om bloggen din. Så godt du skriver! Ser også at du fremdeles er glad i å lese. Det gleder en norsklærers hjerte!! Tenker ofte på deg, på ditt sprudlende humør og smittende smil, på din skrive- og leseglede. Man glemmer ikke elever, skjønner du. Håper du får en flott tur til Hawai, og lykke til med resten av utvekslingsåret ditt. Du får minner du vil bære med deg resten av livet! Stor klem fra Birgitte
