Hey guysssssssssssssssssssss, i am back !!!!!!!! (more or less...) did you miss me??? I was so sick, and i didnt' write anything in the blog both because my conditions were too bad=P and because i havent' done anything interesting since of this... I have searched for doctors everywhere, but in this country they never seem to be available XD ...but thanx to the angel Angelica =) i started taking antibiotics without asking anyone (yep, 'cause i think i have tonsillitis) and now i already feel better !!!
Or at least better enough to go to the Halloween party in Saapa... could i ever miss a thing like that ??? When i was a child i loved so much Halloween, but in Italy it was not tradition and only some years i managed to convince my friends going door by door to ask "trick or treat" ??? ... but year after year it became a commercial festivity loved by everyone, and that's when i started lovin' it a little bit less...
I ALWAYS dress like a witch... i have much more original ideas [sorry for the people to wich i had promise to dress "colorful like a normal person" or "like a hippie" !] ; but the witch is in my heart ! I really cannot remember how old i was when i started sayin' "I am a witch"; but really, the first book i have read is "The Witches" by (Norwegian!) Roald Dahl, so it must be true...
too many adventures to buy one of the last hat they had in Kristiansand... since i was sick the previous days, i went to Ginte in downtown the last hours before the party , under the rain and ill... and i managed to find all that i needed ^_^ but to come back we took the wrong bus... we left from the center at 17 and we arrived to St. Olavsvei, which is about 30 minutes by feet; after more than a hours ...the bus drove us 11 kilometres by the city=P
But in spite of all this... at 20 i was in Saapa !!!!!!!!!!! To meet my colleagues witches !!!
Cara from Usa:

and Monica from Poland:

it was not very hard to have that make up... it's only me that doesn't sleep for some more days=P
My faithful Anita was dressed like a vampire:

Before showin' the other costume; admire the great decorations that there were in Saapa...

(well that's just my bag=P but look at the webs)


and here 's some costumes !!!
and now, before presenting the other costumes... you have to read
LOLA'S PERSONAL TOP OF COSTUMES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NUMBER 5: ANDY, NUDIST ON STRIKE
Andy 's idea was PURE GENIUS !!!!!!!!!! He didn't spend a money to make a costume that made me crazy, the idea was greattttttttttttttt.... look at him !!!!!!!!!!

NUMBER 4: CHRISTOPH , ZOMBIE
Ok, it won't be the most original, but look at him.... the make up is simply PERFECT !!!


NUMBER 3: DENIS, THE BABY
Denis was fantastic... he was dressed like a baby with some alcohol in his biberon, and he kept on cryin' loud... but the best is that he said he made all the way from Statoil to Saapa dressed like this !!!!!!




NUMBER 2: FABIO AND GINTE, ANGEL AND DEVIL
I cannot help to give number 2 to them, because it was me to have this great idea to make them dress like angel and devi =) and i also made the wings for Fabio:

the only problem is that they arrived at the party at about 23 or 24... and it started at 20... punctual as always=P




NUMBER 1 : THORSTEN, MARC AND IEVA
Two days ago, Thorsten asked me if i had some metal belt to borrow him, but i replyied i only have a belt buckle with Tommy Lee's face... but from that moment i understood he wanted some kind of "metal" dressing. To be honest, i either had think to some black metal thing, with face painting; or to some glam ... and i also had thought about Kiss; because on Tuesday i saw Family Guys' episode in which Peter and Lois dress themselves like Kiss and go to Kiss fans' convention !
But i actually had no idea he REALLY would dress like that; and when i saw him - PAUL STANLEY !!! - and Marc coming from the door i shouted something because they were the best !!!!!!!!!! They really have to win my personal top prize=P


and the other number one is Ieva, not my friend Ieva from Lithuania but the Latvian Ieva from Statoil... she really deserves my prize, because Lavinia saw this strange metal guy near the ping pong table and asked me "who is him?" and i replied "I have no idea; he's some Norwegian, i am sure... he has a cool t-shirt though!" ... after some minutes she came to us and she told us she was Ieva... REALLY. I TOOK 5 MINUTES TO BELIEVE HER, EVEN IF SHE WAS TALKING TO ME !!!!!!!!

Lola's winners:

this is a picture i am very proud of... Paul Stanley and I !!!!!!!!!!!

and now i will show you a lot of other pics and costumes =)

Hey guys =) I had promised you to do Zuzka's birthday report; but then it was hard for me to get up before 14 o' clock (two days ago i woke up at 17... ) and the day was finished even before starting XD
But finally today i managed to wake up very soon ( I will explain later why); and so here i am for the report !!!
Zuzka is a girl from Praha who lives in my same floor and she's in the "Norwegian syntax and linguistics" class with me; so she invited me to her 22nd birthday party, which was a small party in the T.V, room without many people; but very nice !
Christine and Gaby, the crazy austrian girls, had prepared some typical Chzec's sweets to make a surprise to Zuzka... and they were great ! Those two girls are really good at cooking ^_^

Zuzka:

Gaby chopping the bread... we also ate the typical Norwegian dish ; bread with salami, ham, cheese and vegetables XD

Jette and Soma:

the wishesss time !!! Janna and her boyfriend Dennis; Flo and Zuzka:

a french cake quite hard to cut XD and flowers:

Zuzka blowing candles...

... and opening presents !

Paula and Flo tryin' to cut that cake... but it was impossible

Zuzka with the Chzec meal:

Ieva, Gaby, Annika and Emeline:

Dana and Asia:

Dennis, Janna, Flo, Paula, Zuzka's norwegian roomate and Asia:


one of the original presents of the austrian girls for Zuzka... a warm scarf XD

Christine, Jette and Soma:

Gaby taking pics:

Annika:

Zuzka also offered as a great, very strong Czech liquor made from plums... Děkuji (thanx!) for the very nice party !!!
On Tuesday, i didn't do anything 'cause i spent the whole night after Zuzka's party writing the report of my birthday on the blog... and i woke up at 17, as i told you...
But yesterday Ieva, which had brought some vodka from Lithuania, wanted to organize a "small drinking party" and since the idea looked very interesting we managed to do it... she wanted to invite Gedas and me to her; but i said maybe we could go to Gedas in Statoil (so i could also go to Luigi and Claudio to see Italian football; even if at the end i didn't go XD) and we went there, starting drinking looots of vodka.... and when it was finished; we sent some people to Lucas' friend Niels to buy his homemade one (do you remember my drunkess at Gedas birthday=P... it was fault of that one)
But this time i didn' t mix vodka with any other alcoholic thing; so i was yep drunk, but not so much!
Lithuanians...


with Latvian...

Germans...

...and Italian !

... don' t try to say that alchol doesn't join people together XD XD XD
as drinking i was also using the computer... we were using MySpace to listen to some music and while i was drunk i made and posted a test ! It was so funny and embarassing to read it this morning 
By the way, if you are careful readers you would remember that at the beginnin' of this post i told you i would explain why i woke up soon tomorrow... yeppp, because after this "small alcoholic party" i came home quite drunk at about 2 o' clock or a bit later, and i slept LIKE A STONE thanx to the great Lithuanian (and homemade) "Uòdka" !!!
And so at 9 o' clock, without needing any alarm, i was awake and tiding my room ... impossible to believe i know !!!
Then i went to check my mailbox and i saw that finally the pack from my parents arrived =)
So i went in Roligheden's post office with Lavinia, came home, opened the pack... and there was some clothes; some food and most of all SOME GREAT BIRTHDAY PRESENTSSS :

Guns'N'Roses dvddddddd !!! ; Nietzsche's "La gaia scienza" ("Die fröhliche Wissenschaft"/ "The gay science") !!!!!!!!!!! ; and some magazines i received at my home... the catalogue of the Nuclear Blast, and the "Middle Earth" magazine, for people that as me are member of the Italian Tolkien's Society

...and a microphone with headphones... so now i could be able to use Skype also to call people ; and not only to write in the chat!
Finally, today i managed to study a little bit... i needed it; because my friends Marta and Davide are coming to visit me from the 10th to 18th of November so we can go and see Unholy Alliance in Oslo with Slayerrr, Children of Bodom, In Flames and other bands... and i have a very important and difficult exam on the 29, so i need to study!
But tonight is Thursday; the night when we go downtown...let's hope it will be funny; even if i am sure we ' ll go to the Twist and Shout as always XD XD XD my metal friend, don' t kill me....
Ha det!
Your faithful Lola
Hail to all my dearest readers...
you won' t believe me, but i had to create my fourth account on Flickr (host for uploading pictures) to put on the blog all the pics that you are going to see in this great (i hope ^^" ) report ... and i want to say sorry in advance , cause i am not going to use a proper english ... but i woke up at 8 a.m; went to the post far from here after 4 hours of lesson, went Ieva and Ginte just came back from Lithuania and then to Zuzka 's birthday party ... now it's 2.40 a.m. in the night and i am going to write the report of my birthday; after uploading the pics, that took AGES... so please, understand that i am tired and forgive me all the mistakes XD XD XD [ to stay awake i am trying to listen to some classical music ... yep , you already knew i am not a conventional person!!! ]
I want also so say sorry because the layout of this blog leaves a hugeee space at the start of the post... i don' t know what to do with it !
Last thing before starting: thanx to Geppas for many of the pics that you are going to see =)
It was some time that i was planning my birthday party because, even if theorically i hate to be in the center of the attention and i am so shy; in the bottom of my heart i would have liked a lot to receive some attention for one day and what's more; i didn' t want the risk of a surprise party 'cause i would have died of heart strike^^ ... So, a few days before the 15th i sent an e - mail to lots of Erasmus students to invite them, and tell to invite the others who hadn' t receive it and also their friends if they wanted.
I gave the party in Saapa, the students accomodation, at 22 o' clock of Saturday 14 (the birthday of my Mum !) and when i arrived there, with Lavinia and Raul, i brought quite a lot of alcohol (many beers, a bottle of raspberries vodka , one of Baylies ; two Tiramisu' cake made by Lavinia, 4 cakes i bought, cinnamon sweets, wafers and more and more =P) ... of course only some German, punctual as always, people were already there=P Katia and Carolin to be precise.

everyone made me birthday's wishes

the great birthday's card from the Italian crew !!!!!!!!

picture by Cara (thanx to Hannah for sendin' me ^^)

me with a great necklace from Austrian girls; made of skulls candies and lollipops (Thorsten asked me if they weren't another thing XD XD XD XD)

Lavinia and Michele showin' their masterpiece
And now, it's time to show you all the presents that i received =) =) =)
I really didn' t expected all this and i want to thank youuuu all guys !!!
Tusen takk, Grazieee!!!, Danke schön ;) , Merci beaucoup ^^ , Muchas gracias =) , Aciuuu ^___^ !, Dziekuje bardzo ! ... and more and more !!!!!!!! Kiitos, even if there are no finnish guy here, sigh sob 


the great t-shirt with written "God (geppas) is Busy, can i help you?" is the amazing present of Italian guys + a Polish girl : Lavinia, Luigi, Magda, Fabio, Mario, Cladio & Michele (or at least these signed the card=P) and my faithful friend Fede can grant that when she came here; we went to Darklands and i told her that i wanted this t-shirt... i am so happyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy =) =) =) Grazie di cuore !!!

on the other side of the card there is the lyric of "La terra dei cachi" by Elio e le Storie Tese... the song that i "forced" them to sing at the International Pub =)

this spider sayin' "Waz up?" "enshrines" a lot of fine citations that probably neither the author of it, Michele, could imagine XD XD XD but you have to know that i rarely had a greatest birthday ticket He eh !!!! (if you would have draw a butterfly next to it that would have been the top... don't you think so, Luigi ? )


-> the second comic of this page is the best ...it means " Dad, look, a man with short hair!!!" XD XD XD XD XD
Nemi's comic is great !!! It is a comic in Norwegian, about a dark/metal girl ... she's really smart and a true idol ^^ and i love it !!!! and it's also perfect to improve my Norwegian ... it was the present by people from Statoil: the signatures in the card are from Victoria, Marc, Bastian, Michael, Mathieu, Maggie, Arnaud, Alena, Thorsten, Gedas, Lena, Ieva . By the way, i think the main idea from the comic was from my friend Lena, and Alena, and maybe Bastian 'cause he's in Norwegian lesson with me and always see me drawing comics instead of following the teacher XD
Danke schoen also to you guys !!!


As you can see; i also received a lot of sweets !!! I think it's not difficult to notice i love them
; by the way, i received lollipops from Christine and Gaby; some incredibly good spicy cookies from Alba and i think other Polish and German girls; Spanish corn from Spanish people =); and i thank you all so much guys !!!
But i am particularly grateful to Melanie and Martina, the Swiss girls from Zurich and Losanna, 'cause they had organized a Vorspiel with Swiss chocolate in Melanies' room... but they didn't do it because of my party; and they also brought me this fantastic milk chocolate ^_^ Thank youuuuu

Have you seen that small, great black box with a skull on it? It was Anita' s present; and it wasn't a box... i put it in the water; and it became this amazing towel !!!

You don' t know how much i like it.... Anita, you are always more my idol !!!! Beware God Geppas; one day she could take your place XD
The present of Gedas and Lucas was something amazing and not only for the value of the people that gave me; but i will show you why with a simple pic...
here is my "Norway: society and culture" course material i use (diary and copybook)

and here's their present !!! a great reporter set that suits PERFECTLY with my copybook !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Gedas is in my same course and i really can' t understand if he remembers the copybook i use... if it is so; he' s god because we only had lesson about once or twice ... if not; it is useless to say that he's god. But by the way it is already assumed that he is !!! XD [ as a partial justification i tell you it is now 4.06 a.m and i am writing and uploading pics from 3 hours]

the great back of the present ... as you can see it was really useful...this report is dedicated to you eheh

the reason why i appreciated so much all these presents; was that there was not only one that was not done with the heart XD or at least i think so because they were something about metal, or comics, or writing reports or something else of the things i like ! ... for example, Christina's and Gaby's gave me a "simple" necklace made with candies, that became so special because the candies were shaped like skulls 
so i thank again everyone of you for these and for the best birthday's party of my life...
and when i went home i found out that it wasn't over ... because Lavinia gave me a so beauful birthday card by Svetlana; that is not here now 'cause she went to find Irina in Granada with Mariya from Russia


and today i had two FANTASTIC surprises =)
the first one was that i was coming home, and i heard screaming loud "LOLAAAAAAAA" ... i turned off my i-pod and i was a taxi coming... Ginte was shouting from the window; she and Ieva (and Andris) came back from the week in Lithuania !!!!!!!!! Ginte hugged me and she told me " I missed you so much!!!" and they were so happy (expecially her; for seeing Fabio again!) and i also am so happy they came back... and Ieva gave me this delicious Lithuanian white chocolate =)

and another thing that made meeee soooo happyyyyyy ; is that i received a present from my best friend Darkshine !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I started dyin' when i opened the pack; because yesterday evening me; Lavinia and Fabio watched finally "Pirates of the Caribbeans - Dead's man chest"; and since i saw the first one at least 10 times and Johnny and Orlando are my fave actors... it was amazing to open the pack and finding their divine faces in two pics 
and the present was so coooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool.... a wonderful peluche of a fairy-elf... and as always she put her very original mark on it; because she put on it a great pin of Nightmare Before Christmas ^_^ and there was also one of her spectacular birthday card
... here you can see it all

maybe putting their faces on the wall behind the pc; i will use it less 'cause i just will stare at them all the time XD XD XD
... grazie Isaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa =)

I would have liked so much to do also Zuzska' s small birthday party report in this post; but it is sooo late; already 5.00 a.m, i stayed away the whole night to write and post pics ... i will hopefully post the pics tomorrow !!! But in the meantime i hope you enjoyed the report... thanx also to Gedas and Lucas eheheh
and if i can say last time ... THANK YOU VERY MUCH TO ALL OF YOU GUYS
=) =) =)
i really don' t know how i will be able to leave you in december... 


Hey to everyone !!!
I haven't uploaded the blog for some days, 'cause nothing very exciting happened... only the usual football match between Erasmus guys on Sunday (the videos are available, as always, on my you tube space) ; and a nice italian evening yesterday: we saw Road Trip in my room; probably it was about the 20th time i saw it... only Lavinia and Luigi had never seen it.
I post also to tell you that i added some interesting link of my friend's pages and blogs ... most of all people who are in Erasmus; here or somewhere else !!!
