Took me a moment to realize why this photo seemed odd to me (besides the obvious involvement of a literal spirit level): Was there an explicit dress/color code for the event?

... I mean, that's supposed to be a flock of wild arts people, isn't it ... ?

(Stereotyping? Moi? )

If you're referring to pretty much everyone wearing black, then no, that was just a coincidence. For some reason pretty much everyone involved in the project decided to show up in black (to look professional, maybe? idk), and all the other people just... liked black, I guess? Norwegians really aren't very adventurous when it comes to colours (or patterns, for that matter). I wore a red and blue dress with birds on it, though, so there goes that colour code cx

In other news, I ate a lot of homemade food today

Um, what do you normally eat if homemade food is something extraordinary for you to eat?

Thanks, everyone!

I would share any write-ups we got, except BT didn't even bother to come cx Which is really freaking stupid, seeing as they apparently had time to interview me and two others from the group when the project was just starting up and we didn't know anything at all, but then when we host a really amazing event that gets A LOT of guests it's not even interesting enough to check out :I Oh well, it was an amazing experience anyway c:

That's me, in the dress. (There were a lot more people than you can see in this photo )

Aw, giant pillows!

Also, congrats on the event going well! I always speak way too fast whenever I have to speak in front of large groups of people...

My thoughts exactly. ???

Store-bought food? Like ready-made stuff? I can't cook, so nothing I eat is homemade.

That sounds kind of... well, unenviable. You can't cook though? You can't cook as in you don't have the facilities or you can't cook because you haven't learned how?

Because I haven't learned how. I only know how to make scrambled eggs and grilled cheese.

No offense, but even I can cook . Well, more out of necessity than interest in the culinary arts. It isn't hard, you just need practice with some dishes to get comfortable with some basic concepts.

Why would you grill a cheese though? Is it like fondue barbeque?

[Eich]

Yes, that is indeed a pair of kitty ears. It's... a long story cx

The story must be that Norway has created cat people.  That's the only logical conclusion (and it even explains those adorable drawings you did of the SSSS cast).

Just cause I cook it doesn't make it homemade.  I pretty much make two meals that aren't store-bought, because cooking takes far too much time for me to want to invest effort in it.

Actually it has to do with... an artwork related to a strip club cx

*Snort* C'mon you two, how hard could it be? Right now I feel obliged to come over there and show you how it's done, and believe me - I have experience breaking and entering in order to cook people food.

... For real?

No offense?? ? ??? Well 'scuse me, but from what I gather, it's not uncommon here for college students/teenagers to not know how to cook. (I'm a teenager for heck's sake, I've only been on my own for six months) And my mom tells me all the time I should cook my own food, and she got me a cookbook, but I haven't cared enough to make my own food. I'll learn it eventually, gosh, but not now.

Grilled cheese... the sandwich? Is grilled cheese just an American thing?

I can learn just fine, the internet has pretty amazing recipes on it, it's just a matter of not wanting to.

I remember you mentioning something about that, actually.  Was that the big picture you were standing in front of in the BT photo?

My spider senses are telling me there's an awesomest story behind this one.

Yes.

No, this was another artwork. It just say Caligula in garish neon lights, a reference to both a power-crazed Roman emperor and a south-american strip-club by the same name.
