Life of Bjoernar

Hey hey hey!! :D

It’s weekend guys, finally! I’ve been waiting so long for this weekend to come, and I’m glad it’s here. So what’s going on this weekend? I’m gonna celebrate my dad’s birthday on Sunday. That’s what I know so far. I might join to the alpine center on Saturday, but I gotta see how my dad’s planing this weekend. Yeah, so it’s me and my dad this weekend - yay! Tell me what you’re doing this weekend too! :D

Speaking of commenting; aren’t you able to comment on my blog? It seems like you don’t have the ability to comment on my blog. Some of you do, and that’s awesome, but I know some people aren’t able to comment. What is it? Did I choose wrong blogsite? Should I create a new blogsite with a different company? What I know is that I’m going to create my very own webpage sooner or later. I can’t be authorized by blogger.com forever, if I’m gonna get my word out there.

A lot of people use blogger.com. It would just seem like being a n00b blogger. I am a n00b blogger, but a very own webpage gives a different first impression to others. Rather than using a blog created on blogger.com.

It’s great for those who’s blogging just to blog. But I’m blogging because I have information I wanna share with all of you. I’m gonna expand my content later, so my blog has better and more content. But for now I’ll stick to blogger.com since I’m a n00b. It does work well though.

My biggest inspiration :-)

I’m still wondering about the vlog name. I wonder what to use. Is it going to be «Nerd Preferred» or «Raids with Shades»? Or something else? I have no clue, so you gotta help me. Tell me in the comments what you think. «Nerd Preferred», «Raids with Shades» or something else? You tell me.

I got myself a Formspring account today, so if you got any questions for me, shoot them at me here. I’ll answer just about anything about whatever you wanna ask. If you wanna see me dailybooth, it’s here. I’m wondering about how many of you who actually will click.

Hey guys.

I’m so sorry the blog hasn’t been updated in days. I’ve had this film project, so a lot of my time has gone away there. Anyway, I’m here so I hope you wanna read.

I’ve been thinking a lot. I really should start the video blog. It’s so much easier. It’s just to record and put it online. I don’t have to advance it a lot either. I think I should get the video blogging up-going fast. There are so many more great things about a video blog than a text blog. It records the action while happening, instead of telling it afterwards. Also, it’s easier to talk than writing long blogs that people are satisfied with. I honestly like to talk, so video blogging might be easier.

I wish I could see the Norwegian Music Awards today. There are a lot of good musician in Norway, like Madcon, so I really wanted to watch it. The reason why I’m not watching it is because there is a movie on TV. I really want Madcon to win a price this year too. Madcon is one of the greatest musicians in Norway. They should win on of the prices because their music is inspiring, great and they share this great energy.

The World Championship on skies in Oslo is done tomorrow. What do you think about this year’s World Championship? Yes, you might think Petter Northug is a pig. Yes, you might look at Norwegian victories like it’s annoying. Whatever you think about the World Championship, I enjoyed it. Petter Northug isn’t a pig in my eyes, and the victories we’ve gotten is great. This championship is one of the only things that makes me say: «I’m Norwegian».

There isn’t a lot that makes me proud of being a Norwegian. Sometimes I’m embarrassed of being a Norwegian when I see them behaving like they are. I see Norwegians behaving like they own the world when being international. It’s embarrassing.

I gotta take it easy on the blogging, I think. It’s not easy to not blog for three days and then try to write as much as before. So I hope you’re satisfied. ;-)
 

Hey!

This day didn’t last long. I’ve been helping and cleaning the entire day. I know you’re not suppose to clean up on a Sunday, but I did anyway. But that’s not everything I did today - I tried to video blog. This is the first time I made a long video blog. Even though it didn’t succeed, it’s a step closer to great vlogging material. There is still things that needs to be improved like the accent and camera position. I wasn’t that happy about the accent on the clip I recorded. When I talked in normal speed, my accent turned into a Norwegian-English accent. When I talked slower, my accent became americanized. That’s apparently something I gotta improve. When I was vlogging, the camera taped me like my hands were straight down. I need to have the camera right in front of me. That’s something I gotta practice. I’m not happy about my appearence either, so that’s something I wanna work on. So as you can see, there is a lot of things that needs to be put together before being able to upload a video blog on the internet (YouTube).

Without practice, you fail!

That’s where I believe most of the failures comes. People don’t realize the mistakes they’re making. I’m pretty careful about how the footage is, so it’s maybe just me being a bit paranoid. Still, the point is that people need to make sure everything’s alright before doing something that fails. For instance, if a band wanna become famous after playing together for a week. It’s gonna fail, believe me. What the band probably in this case are missing is talent. Without talent, they’re without consideration. No one’s gonna sit down and wait till this band gets great. Another thing is that they don’t see the fact that they need to improve their skills as a band, before trying to get famous. This is common for everyone who wants to share some skills with others. No one’s gonna find a video blog interesting if it’s five minutes of: «Uhm»,  «so», «well», «you know» +++. You need to provide what you wanna say in a way that’s interesting and understandable. That’s why I need more practice. The information I’m gonna share with you, needs to be clear. If not, then I’m not gonna upload anything. When a new talent is gonna be shared, you should at least try to compare yourself with someone else. If you’re far from the one you’re comparing yourself to - forget it. Don’t even bother. You see where I’m going?

I’m looking at the map of the United States of America. I’m falling completely in love with it. The names of all the states... OMG. I don’t care where I’m at when I’m in America. If I get my feet on US soil, I’ll be incredible happy. I just wanna move there now! I’m already saving some cash for my first trip to USA. Give me tips: where should I go? New York? Los Angeles? Phoenix? Las Vegas?! Tell me. I know you’re quiet, but come on! I’ve been to Arizona, Utah, New Mexico and Colorado. Is there some other places I should go? TELL ME!!!

Two cups of coffee - still tired. What’s going on?! :O

I’m out of here, catch you later!
 

Hey you!

Today I had to do some assignments that has to be done by tomorrow, so I’m kinda stressed a little. I sat down for a moment and thought about how much I actually care about my future. I’m working my ... off just to have a good carrier. It’s like nothing else than my future matters, but that’s not entirely true. A carrier isn’t the place you seek happiness, but it’s a part of your happiness. I feel that I have to get a good carrier to have a good life, but that doesn’t make sense. Love to friends and family is where happiness comes from. Doing what you want is where happiness comes from.

The carrier should only be a part of surviving, but in my case it’s more than that. I know I can be happy without having a great carrier, but my brain obviously doesn’t. I’m not gonna stop getting a good carrier, but the fear of not becoming happy if I don’t have a good carrier is there. That’s why I’m working as much as I do. I can’t remember the last time I played my XBOX for instance.

I’m not complaining, but I’m sharing information you need. Your carrier isn’t everything, but it is a part of it. My biggest ambitions is to move to the United States of America. I don’t need the best carrier in the world to be able to move there. My point is: your happiness doesn’t come from your carrier, but do your best to get a good one. After saying all of this, I won’t change the way of working. I’m gonna succeed, but if I don’t do it well, I’m not gonna let that ruin my happiness. You get it? It’s the «after-effect» I don’t want to fear. That’s the main point.

Seriously, I checked flight ticket costs yesterday to Phoenix, Arizona. I checked the costs of hotels and I was about to search for apartments until I understood that it’s crazy to start searching now. I’m not sure if I wanna stay in Phoenix, but I searched it anyway. I’ve been to Phoenix, Arizona and it’s damn hot. Anyway, I’m kinda excited about the wish of moving to USA. What I’m probably will do is to move there for a year, go back to Norway for a year and if I miss the USA (which I probably will), I’ll move back. I don’t wanna move immediately if it seems like I ain’t gonna like it.

Argh, I can’t stop thinking about the video blogging. I gotta start soon. Why haven’t I started yet? I wanna vlog, now! I gotta find a name for the vlog if I’m gonna start. I can’t call it «Bjoernars vlog», I’m not satisfied with that. No one has participated to the contest of finding a name. Well, no one wants to win. If you have an idea, comment on «Win a Secret». I think I posted it in January. I was thinking about calling it Brilliant! , but there was some sort of an art group with that name before. I don’t know if it’s legal to use that kind of name if someone else has had it. Give me suggestions!!!

Well, that’ it for today. Stay tuned for more, and I’ll catch up with you.
 

Hi guys!

So, I'm just wondering. What are friends really for? Friends are those who supports you and share with you and so on. Let me just tell you something I discovered a while ago; some of them, don't do that! I mean, I'm trying to get my video blogging to work. And what do I get back? "Stop filming everywhere!".

I don't get it. I just DON'T get it. I'm not filming them if they don't want to, and still they have to complain. They're telling me to support them when something needs to be done, but there is no way that they're going to support me.

Well, let's talk about something positive! So, I'm considering to buy a pair of wayfarer glasses. I don't know if they look good on me, but why not give it a try. If I got myself a pair of vans, some pants that fits perfect with the shoes and a long sleeve or a shirt. I don't know, do you think that would look great? At least it would be fun to try if it looks like shit.

Okei, I think this is gonna be it for today. I'll try to post another blog tomorrow, so if you are visiting my site and want to read more (and maybe want me to read your blog - tell me!).

Note: if you got a YouTube account, let me know! Ì would love to watch your videos :')

Okei, so I see you later!
