On my own

Finally.
For the first time in life, I`m living on my own.
I don`t count last years six months in Lao as living on my own. `cause then I had my amazing team mate Kristian living in the same building!
I`m living on my own. All my 80 friends from school have abandon me here in Mandal. At first I was shocked by their betrayel! How could they do such a thing? How could they leave me here, all by myself. Yeah, sure.. they had to go to their new homes for the next 6 to 7 months, but still.. some of them could at least have brought me with them. But noooo, they had to go alone. No one cares for the sorry ass ettåring Eirik!!

But you know.. I`m fine with it. I`m doing great on my own. I was very exited to see how it would be, living alone in a city where know the names of maybe 5 people, exept the teachers.
But I`m doing really good. They days seem fly by.
I work
I exercise
I eat
I sleap
I play guitar
I pray
I read

Life is good. Yes, there will be times when I will feel more alone then ever. But to quote a good friend of mine: "God has given me peace here. I`ve settled down".

The last on and a half week since school ended, I`ve checked out Bergen. Bergen is an AMAZING city. It rains a lot, but still.. The people makes every raindrop worth it, and the city has its own incredible charm.
I`ve been home to visit my parents. As always, they`re greast. I also got meet a lot of my many siblings, as well as a few friends.
In other words. The last week before I returned to Mandal was really good.
