Whatever



I found this and it made me smile. I kinda needed that, because I'm going through a hard time right now.

The fact is, I've got a lot of stuff going on, serious stuff. Things that I'd love to share with you, but I won't. I'm just not ready to put it in here. This place used to be a good place to vent when there was no one to vent to. But now, I don't even know if anyone still comes here. And besides, it looks like everyone's taking a trip somewhere, so no one's around.

I won't be writing as often as I usually do, not that I have been anyway. I've just got too much to deal with this year, and I'll have to deal with it alone. There's probably a reason for that, and I'll find out soon enough.

I'll keep trying to update FF, it's a lot easier to write for. I'll be around, though likely nobody is paying attention anyway. So don't mind me. See you later.

1.7

Today, July 1st 2007 marks the 24th birthday of the talented Marit Elisabeth Larsen. As most of you readers may already know, she is one half of the once popular Norwegian duo known as M2M alongside Marion Raven.

Now Marit is on her own, carving a name for herself as a solo artiste, and she has done tremendously well back home in Norway. Unlike Marion who has gone west to promote her rock image, Marit stayed home and projected a spellbinding country sound that has her fans eating right out of her hand. I must admit that her music isn't immediately accessible, but given time, you'll get swept up in it and be mesmerised by her unique sound.

I have said that her previous work with Marion would always be my first love, but I'd still commend her solo efforts. I admire her courage and will to venture out on her own against the odds and successfully make a name for herself. I wonder if she would one day conquer the world the same way she did with M2M. I wish she would come back to Asia, as I am certain many of her fans here would kill just to see her in person again.

Gratulerer Med Dagen, Marit.
