…nothing fancy happening here. Work as usual. Did not return Abels flash as i was to use it this weekend. Its getting pretty dark these days, nothing new. This was the 3rd bday party in 3 weeks. Crazy.












was getting bored…and pissed at the fact that the awesome champagne was not being opened…i decided to leave and head to a Jon and Chloe’s who were having some board game going on.

per was there

so were the crazy finns…Ville and Riikka

flash…in your face

the damn dice would always end with 1 or 2

ville on the other hand was getting 6 over and over again


more hands…








everyone had a nice time…headed home at 2…

Rinse, Repeat.
In other random news…i reinstalled Bioshock. I bought it the day it came out. Found it too old school and did not play it much. Decided to finish it, again did not play much. The reason i want to finish is because i want to buy some new games.
Left 4 dead
Mirrors Edge
Tomb raider Underworld
Silent Hill 5
Problem being i cannot stop playing Quakewars…something about the game that is as good as Quake3 (which in my opinion is a perfect game).
In work related news. One of the BIG levels i worked on for Age of Conan will be out soon in the next patch. Its a level in the Thunder River section. These are few paintovers made over my mockup. This is one of the three levels that i have done post launch and are far better than any levels we have in AOC as of now. Will post the rest as and when they are made public.

Its more than 2 years since i moved to Oslo…time flies.
Got up in the morning only to realize that there is nothing in the fridge to prepare. Got some take away sushi. Was ok.
Yesterday was Maja’s bday. Borrowed Abel’s flash. But did not use much of it as i sux at it. Unlike Olve’s bday i did not leave at 12, but left close to 2am. Things sure have calmed down compared to two years back.
