my world

my world is a world full of ...

sucking up and brown-nosing.

people constantly trying to outdo each other.

doing things i don't enjoy to get ahead.

at least ten years of shit work.

no guarantees for years of working hard.

fuck it.

me in running gear this morning

Top from Nike, shorts from aussiebum

good shopper

Pretty New Balance 902's. Half the price of a pair of 903's, so why not?


I bought way too much running gear too, including this one, but they should motivate me to get back to my running PR.


Imagine that in black. Bummer, though: A simple websearch reveals that WESC is big among indie Swedes, so I might see people wearing the same thing in Oslo. So much for wanting to dress different.


Insanely comfortable. I should know, I'm wearing it now :)

bad shopper

Some days, I feel like the universe is against me.

I know it's silly to complain about shopping of all things, but bear with me. I have this massive list of things to buy before I leave, so I've been trying to shop all weekend, but I couldn't find anything I like. I know I'm pickier than most people, but even then I can usually pick out a thing or two by the end of the day.

Don't you hate it when a product you've grown to love is taken off the shelves for good? I'm not just talking about my frustratingly futile search for the blue TDK DVD-Rs in the past month. This morning I decided to pick up more of these really comfy socks from Giordano, but alas, they've been discontinued. None of the branches stock them anymore, and they're being "redesigned" for an upcoming release "soon".

Next stop, Myer for this digital camera. Of course, it's out of stock, and the sale ends Sunday.

Rebel, Athlete's Foot and Foot Locker all failed to stock the running shoes that I want.

So, again I came home empty-handed today. Grrr.
