Winter


Winter
Originally uploaded by phunkstarr.

Left Kristiansand in a dreary drizzle. Outside the window of my parents' house, the snow is turning into blocks of ice. It's like I'm skipping ahead of time, meeting the storm further up the road before it hits.

By the time it will, I'll be back again.

But this time, I might be in love.

Outside is winter, but spring is in my heart.
Life is weird.

That wooshing sound of summer wizzes past my ears. As I look into my garden, it's hard to envision it draped in snow. But it won't be long.

Here we go again

Life right now reminds me of an animated movie I once saw:

Person: Uh-Oh.
Llama: Let me guess. Huge waterfall. Sharp rocks at the bottom?
Person: Yup.
Llama: (sighs) - Bring it on.

days turn to nights turn to days turn to fragments.

No routine, something's missing.
I'm a traceur, vaulting my way through the parkour of life. Time to get focus.

Tasted and smelled my way through Italy, Spain and France today, from Navarra to Piemonte to Rhône to South East Australia.

Saw Izzat. Rezpekkth, mann.

Rezzzpekkth.

Hva er livet uten de små riskene? Rundt hvert hjørne en ny mulighet, hvert lille steg blir eventuelt et liv, fylt med de usikre valg man kunne ha tatt.
Det slo meg idag at livet er ikke annet enn en serie konsekvenser av valg man overhodet ikke hadde noen forutsetninger for å forutsi. Denne tanken burde kanskje ha gjort meg særdeles deprimert, men den gjorde ikke det.

Den gjorde meg fri.

About me

Originally from a place called Lier in Norway, but most recently from Brisbane in Oz, then at home to collect some dust and then again to Kristiansand in the south of Norway. Here I work as a wine waiter and gymnastics coach. I also dabble in my own business, a small communcations bureau.

Other than that it doesn't surprise most people that meet me that I have intellectual interests, but I'm full of contrasts, very eclectic. Equally comfortable with chocolate milk and Bourdeaux, I have to admit I can get snobby when it comes to food, wine and fashion, but other than that I'm a laid back kinda guy, an old soul, very stable, a little melancholic, I have an old italian living la dolce vita behind my left earlobe :)

I'm like a bunch of photographs on a floor. Among all the colorful fragments is a nuanced whole, you just have to see it all in perspective. I'm not saying you have to hang from a ceiling to understand me, I just like the metaphore.
I know more than you think, and am not so arrogant as I seem.It's more important to do the right thing than to do things right.
