maren bjørgum Who's he? Have you slept with him? When we talked, I talked about me, you talked about you, when we should have talked about each other. It's sad to fall asleep. It separates people. Even when you're sleeping together, you're all alone. All right, I'll count to 8, and if you haven't...

maren bjørgum Especially when I see pictures like this (and there's a lot of them, if I should bet I would say about 70% of all pictures with me in them contain the presence of a "silly" face of some sort). But anyways, just wanted to drop by and tell you that the sun is treating me nicely, I am dividing...

maren bjørgum Perfect birthday celebration numéro quatre. Today on the other hand I have spent on my hands and knees scrubbing the apartment clean, after waking up to a living room that looked like it had been hit by a nuclear bombe. FUN. Took a break to sit in the park at Olaf Ryes Plass and eat ice...

Sparkling Mojito and Calypso Sun Filled Candles I'm partial to two of the scents to hit the line: Sparkling Mojito (lemon slices, sparkling pomelo, crushed mint leaves, orange zest and iced sugar cane) Calypso Sun (juicy mandarin, white peach and tropical mango) These two candles smell absolutely divine. I love that they each are...

maren bjørgum Eating our food, going out with her fucking friends, drinking coffee 'HI, I'm an actress, I've come from England and I wanna be an actress in LA'." Went to see the new Norwegian movie Exteriors yesterday with Julie and Chioma. I tend to avoid anything Norwegian (shame on me I know) but...

Sugar Cane Clothing 2011 The third model ‘Sugar Cane Hawaii' is made from sugar cane and indigo imported from Hawaii. Uniquely Japanese denim made from — you guessed it- sugar cane. For many years, Sugar Cane Jeans were a ferociously guarded Japanese secret but today the brand is attracting global attention....

maren bjørgum I brought my polaroid camera, Asbjørn brought a tiara which stayed on for the remainder of the night (supersweetsixteen!), various people bought cava, Maja made delicious drinks, Julie borrowed my clothes, Danby took A LOT of pictures and I realized that I need some sun on my body (fake or...

maren bjørgumno as well as my blog. But I am involved in that world and I do notice the hysteria around body ideals. Personally I have never been the skinniest girl on the block, I am a little curvy and I have always had quite large breasts (the way I see it in any case). I have been dancing ballet most...

maren bjørgum It is all about those small moments in your everyday life which I personally treasure so much. As the first real day of spring and warm weather it could not have been any better either, I am already planning pic-nics in the park and study breaks on a side-walk café at Grünerløkka. It is such...

maren bjørgum And to answer two more frequently asked question: yes, I live here alone, and the reason I can afford it is because I have kind parents who take good care of me. Tonight I am going to celebrate mine and Marita's birthday here with all my facebook friends (give or take a few hundred). ♥

maren bjørgum I can learn to love that! I've been wearing them for the last three days and I have a feeling they might just be my new favorite pair (about time, my favorite jeans the last 4 months has so many holes in them now it's almost embarrassing that I continue wearing them). When it comes to pants...

maren bjørgum Learn to play Bridge: It's a granny sport I know, but there's something about it that makes my brain cells tickle and make me feel like I need to put on some classy clothes, drink some scotch and outplay everyone. Stay a month at the Chelsea Hotel in NY – and feel the aura of the...

maren bjørgum It is all for the upcoming launch of faksimile, and hopefully it will be quite epic. Hope you've all been enjoying the weather this week-end. We had up to 18 degrees in Oslo today. T-SHIRT WEATHER ! Happy dance. Listening to the new Britney album right now in the studio, and I love it....

maren bjørgum Very dark and apocalyptic, which fit quite perfectly with the pouring rain outside. My kind of music at the moment (although that might change in a heart beat, one week ago I was in love with Alexis Jordan – Happiness). Good night in other words, followed by a day in the sun at Grünerløkka...

maren bjørgum Speaking of, let's skip to a totally unrelated subject; today I am working on an essay on Edgar Allan Poe's The Fall of the House of Usherand envying just about everyone who can spend time outside in the sun. Unfortunately working on your computer + sun = not a match made in heaven. Then...

maren bjørgum So what if you all write it down in the comment field here, and I will make some posts that might resemble something like a reader's request column. Whether it is recommendations of music or books, to what it is I am studying (it can be hard to keep track at times). So: ready – set – go ! ♥

maren bjørgum Wearing it with black jeans, black heels, chunky gold necklace and blue bag as I am running along to support Nathalie at the premiere party for Oslo Girls vol. 2, which will air tonight at TV2 Bliss. Are you going to watch the show this season? ♥

maren bjørgum And I had loads of fun (which I always do), but going to bed at 4am high on life made it hard for me to function properly today. I am already on my third cup of coffee and I really want to sleep through my lectures but that aint really an option. So I'm blogging instead. It's a good thing you...

maren bjørgum Ice tea made from with tea and not tons of sugar is another thing we learnt a lot about, rule nr 1: do not boil the water, add tea and then cool it down. Make the tea in ice cold water and you'll void the sour taste of "cold" tea. Enjoyed a cup of tea and a waffle outside in the sun...

maren bjørgum Partied hard last night, so I was glad that the sun was shining giving me a chance to hide behind large and dark sunglasses. Self-induced coma sleep now. Football later (Denmark – Norway). And then some beer. For my birthday next week I wish for a brain, said the scarecrow. ♥

maren bjørgum According to the latest issue of NATT&DAG I am also a "trend slave" due to my quasi-poetic typewriter-styled tattoo and my constant talk about how Oslo has become "too small for me". Trying to change the last part though, both by applying to schools in the US, but also by exploring the city I...

maren bjørgum Favorite moments so far: to see my (well, our) dog Embla again (she celebrated her 12th birthday yesterday btw), falling asleep in my old bedroom with the Harry Potter – and snowboard – posters and of course the glorious feeling of opening the fridge and finding loads of food in it. Heaven on...

maren bjørgum I am a big fan of Diesel's campaigns (you might have noticed that at some point) and their latest installation is a favorite as well. Now it's time for a gallery opening, a LEE party, Flashdance event and Anine Stang releaseparty. All in tonight. ♥

maren bjørgum So I thought I could answer the most frequently asked questions: To clear up the mess: I am currently finishing my bachelor's degree in English Literature. Two years ago I started on a bachelor in Political Science (in addition to Literature), started on a double-major as they call it in...

maren bjørgum I have received various offers earlier, but when I was asked if I would like to share a blog platform together with Marianne, Alex, Nathalie, Elen and Marte, I couldn't say no. I have always been blogging on my own domain, and the thought of leaving this behind makes me turn into my alter...
