Piled-Trash: Let's just say I got nothing else to do..

Yes, I am yet again trying to bring life to Piled-Trash. If it works, we'll see..

While I'm playing with the thought of new posts and such, please enjoy this kewl vid of me and my friends utter lack of stuff to do:

Merry Christmas, fellas!

I hope you all get hats for Christmas. Lots and lots of hats.


















While I'm here, I might as well tell you about my plans for the holidays. I'm gonna catch up on some Jdramas, write my history and philosophy paper, sleep, fight with Andreas in the snow, gain a billion pounds and play with my Christmas presents. What are you gonna do?

Change of format?

Hi, guys! I've been watching lots of vlogs on youtube lately (you should really check out RayWilliamJohnson, meekakitty, whataboutadam and pogobat, they're SO AWESOME!), and it got me thinking; Maybe I should change my contributions to the trash (that's what I call this blaaawg now, just for kicks you know) from blogging to vlogging?

So, what say you? You can submit your opinion in the poll at the front page!

Now, I don't have a camera apart from my phone, so should I buy a camera and start vlogging, or keep blogging?

Oh, and if you actually do comment or answer the poll, I'll love you for ever and ever and ever!

Minus one ever, that's a bit too long, I think.


EDIT:


Poll deleted because of re-formatting.

Christmas, wishes and comments!

Hi again! So, christmas, eh? It's probably the most commercial religious holiday I've ever seen. Everyone loves christmas, so it has to be good, right? Let's start out with a few facts:

1. 24th of December is NOT the birthdate of the historical person known as Jesus. It was however around 24th that the sun started turning. The exact date is actually 21st, or 22th December (or June, depending on which hemisphere of the world you are), and was a date celebrated by what some might call 'vikings'. The reason they say that christmas is at 24/25th of December is that when they were converting people from believing in Norse Mythology to Christianity, they were celebrating 'Jól', which it's still called in Norwegian; Jul.

2. It's all about money. Money, money, money. Spend, spend, spend. I used to be a bit disappointed when I got home-made presents when I was younger, but I see the value of it now. Christmas, as they say, is a time for sharing, and I believe it's a nicer gesture to share something you've made yourself than something you bought from a gift store or something. That being said, I still want a new guitar-amp for christmas, and that's a second problem: People often wish for things you cannot make yourself. Electronics, jewelery, whatchamacallit. People tend to get a bit disappointed if they do not get what they wished for, and is exactly why people continue to spend, even if they'd rather not. It's about spreading happiness. They used to say that happiness cannot be bought, but I think it can - not literally, of course, but through presents. And is there a man on earth who doesn't like the feel of a hard present?

3. I wish I could figure out a third point, but I can't afford coffee at the moment.

So, there you have it. I don't really know why I just wrote that, but I feel that I needs to be said. Now that it's done, I can rant a bit about my current situation.

I'm sitting outside a classroom where some friends of mine are having a math test as we speak. Scratch that; as I speak. Anyway, the reason I'm just sitting here is that I have over two more hours to kill until we're having STARB, which basically is free time as well. I don't think I've said this before, but all this free time is boring the heck outta me. I hope they're done with the test soon, 'cause this floor is getting reeeeaaally uncomfy. 

Oh, oh! I just remembered! I need to ask whoever's reading; Do you have a cool name for a band that we can use? 'Cause I'm completely empty, and I'm usually full of such names!

So, answer the question if you'd like, or just comment! It doesn't matter who you are, where you're from or whatever! If you read, comment to let us know we don't write in vain! Yeah, I know I sound desperate. Sorry about that. Heheh..!

Oh, and a picture says more than a thousand words, so here you go!

Random pictures, looong words and awesome simulators!

So, here we go. Again. Yes, yes, I know I've said it before, "I'll try to bring this blog back on its feet!" This time I mean it. Sort of. Okay, I honestly have no idea what I'm doing here, so I'll just tell you a bit about what has happened lately. Today during gym-class, I got stopped by some dude in a bmw z3. He ran towards me and said something along the lines of "OMG DUDE U LOOK JUST LIEK A GUY I NO, I NEDZ A PICTUAR!". Yeah. Shocked as I was, I couldn't get myself to say anything else than "Sure, man". I have no idea what the heck he was going to use that picture for, but he was laughing  in this mocking, creepy way while getting back in the car. That's always a good sign, right? 

Also, during norwegian-class this day, Andreas, among a lot of people including myself, read his adventure-essay to the class. Containing words such as "hoffsjokoladekakebakermedarbeiderassistentvikar" (meaning something along the lines of royal chocolate cake baker co-worker assistant vicar, I think), which in my head was quite funny. The story went that the protagonist (the hoffsjokoladekakebakermedarbeiderassistentvikar) lost a container of dark matter, and had to find it again.

Going a bit further back, I was at gamestop (a game shop) for my brother, and I saw a rather unusual game - Forklift Truck Simulator 2009. Yes, forklift truck. Simulator. Ever wondered how it's like to drive a forklift truck? Then this is your answer! And here's the funny part: They say it's pretty good. They even use it to educate forklift truck-drivers! Now, that's pretty decent if you ask me! I wonder if they have a Cleaning School Facilities Simulator 2009? I'd love to try that! Or maybe Lawn-Mower Simulator 2009? Construction Worker Simulator 2009? Window Dresser Simulator 2009?

This is probably too stupid to be funny, but hey! At least it's a post, right?

Have a pimp post

Making another attempt to revive this blog. Jules, Morten… start posting!

I don't really have anything to post about, so I'll just do this ~my way~. Yes, this means Asians in sparkly outfits. Meet Arashi, a Japanese five-member boy band. They've been around as a group for ten years now (yes, ten years, that means they're getting old), and are still as popular in Japan as ever.

If you've seen the movie Letters From Iwo Jima, you've seen that guy on the bottom right before. If you've been a friend of mine for a couple of months or more, I've probably showed them to you. One of the many lovely things about Arashi is that they're like happy pills. Not only is their music really light and happy, they're such extreme dorks in interviews and TV shows as well.

See the sparkly suits (that's a link, you guys)? Now learn to love them. Another wonderful thing about Arashi is their lyrics. Like most Japanese groups/bands/artists, they enjoy putting random English words and phrases into their songs. Here, have some examples (click the song titles to watch the ridiculously awesome music videos):

From Truth
"Yurari yureru hikari hitotsu
Itami iyasu kotonaku kieru
I take your life forever
You take my life forever"

From Step and go
"We're gonna step and go to brand new story
Yoru wo toori mukete Rolling rolling on
I'm gonna go there with my memories
Sekai wa maru de towa he no escape"

From A RA SHI
"Hajikerya yea! Sunao ni good!
Dakara choito omoi no wa boo!
That's all right! Sore demo jidai wo kiwameru
Sou sa bokura wa super boy!
We are cool"

Try telling me that wasn't fun. Try.

Breathe

Don't you guys just love it when people do exactly what they said they would? Take, for instance, my mother. She ~kindly~ asked me to come straight home from school today, because she wanted to talk to me before she left. I had to call a friend I haven't seen in a long time and cancel our appointment for today. Guess what? My mom didn't even come home. She got home ten minutes before she had to drive to the airport, to pick up her luggage and give me a quick hug. Uh.

In other news… okay, let's face it, the only news I have is somehow related to Japanese entertainment, and I'll spare you from that. That's how nice I am. I have a question, though. What do you guys want to read about? Let me know if there are any topics you want us to write something about, or just ask us questions, and we'll answer.
