Living it up in oslo - May week 3
Second update!!! i should be heading home now…
Concerts
Got tickets for the Oya festival. Nine Inch Nails and Tool will be there.
Funcom summer party…tickets for Norwegian wood. Korn and Evanescence will be there.
Metallica’s Sick of studio world tour
Double standards and people in general.
Whats with people who take pictures of others but dont like their own pictures taken. If you are a photographer how can you not enjoy being photographed. If you yourself are so shy, how can you expect your subject to be comfortable with you holding a camera in their face!!!
Whats with people who take utterly bad pictures of themselves(MySpace style) but go crazy when someone else tires to take a picture which most probably be much much better than the silly self portrait !!!
Go figure.
Principles, Ideology and such
Was having a awesome talk with Dan about ideology and such. It seems that nothing can provide a perfect solution. Any logic one comes up with works only within a limited range. There are always things that fall outside this range and cannot be explained by said logic.
It seems that i am a Relativist(wtf)…so i am Objectivist, Romanticist, Relativist. We reached this conclusion after a long discussion at the Friday…as i don’t think there is anything as right and wrong. Its all relative…what you may think is wrong could be perfectly good from someone else’s point of view. Again there are things that fall out of the range of this logic and cannot be accounted for.
National Day, 17 May.
Few of us met up at work.
Joe had setup a awesome buffet for us.
Son and Dan getting to know how it feels to be behind the food counter for once.
Once we hogged on the food…we decided to goto the center and have a look at the parade…BAD BAD idea.
The train station was out of control…
Dan had a go at using my camera…as you can see…he is a really good photographer.
The English dude
I was closing a multi-million dollar deal.
Char from QA just moved to Norway and decided to stay here for now.
Eirik joined us some time later.
Deal done…money transferred to my bank…i relaxed.
Racist pig. Long story short…we thought that they were being nice…sadly they were just being racist. Nice.
Dan looking S.M.A.R.T
Son getting into the National Day thingy…sadly both dan and son will leave for Australia in a couple of months. Me is sad.
Later few of us went to Kuba park to enjoy some cool music.
After pestering her for days…i finally managed to get this!!! this is rockstar Rakel.
Later eirik and me went to his house to play the Halo3 beta. It was great…though i sux at it. Gimme a mouse and keyboard.
Friday pay day drinks.
It was good to be down at the mo-cap. Had not been there for weeks. So it was good when all the cool people showed up.

The party man…Martin.
