Raspberry In norway we have a word for all the drinks that are like lemonade but every kind of other flavour, but it's not juice.. mhm.. we call it Saft. I dunno if there is a word for that drink in english... it's basically the flavour + water. Anyone know?

My lemonade comes from lemons, so I can't help ya. What's up with the marines? Is it compulsory national service, in Norway?

Here it's called "limonade" or "siroop" but I always thought that was the same as lemonade.
Actually, the flavour is called siroop and when you add water it becomes limonade. Does that make sense? And the German "saft" refers to juice. "Apfelsaft" is applejuice in German. Why the navy? And why now? I thought you had to serve at age 18? Or before you go to university anyway. EDIT: *makes Sane a glass of lemonade and slips in paracetamol*

*hisses at first, then brings out a mini computer to figure out what paracetamol is*
Eh? Coal tar derived....? Bleh, but as long as it works. *downs whatever it is* *resumes growling*

Paracetamol is what the medicine for head aches and other illnesses is called. Maybe I should have given you Ibuprofen? Does the same, but for me paracetamol works better.

I'm back from my walk about the town! I got some things to make some yummy foods, but my roommate is sleeping on the couch and I don't want to cook too loudly and wake him up. :\

Oh, how was the trip to the clothes shop? Found something suitable? You can sow on ribbons or frilly stuff yourself if you think it's necessary.
Lemme see if I can find that pic... EDIT:

Yeah it's the compulsary national service for the Norwegian Navy. Well I didn't serve when I was 18 because I told them I wanted to study at the university first and so they let me off the hook but now they want me in So I'll take a pause in my studies. I'm not complaining I won't be ending up in Afghanistan at least, unless they want to drop ships over the mountains near Kandahar..
In norway eplesaft is apple juice. But our saft can be both a flavoured drink, like pæresaft (pearjuice), bringebørsaft (raspberry juice?) and water + flavour, like lemonade-ish stuff

I did find one suitable blouse, which is more than I'd hoped for. I'll have to try the places that are not walking distance soon too. I found a nice skirt too, but I set it down and someone took it. I don't think it would've been quite appropriate for lolita anway. A little too modern.

To the US of course. A whole new continent and culture and people to explore! *is practically drooling at the thought*
I put it before Africa and Norway on my travel list, but I would like to be able to have more time then just 2 weeks to go around. Hmmm, maybe I should start learning for my exam tomorrow now... EDIT: Strawberries are good too! I'll have some in my yoghurt please! ^_^ How've you been She? I saw a huge Link in the gamestore a few days ago and I had to think of you

I hear it's terrible to go in the summer though. Too many people. Lots and lots. I'm sure it's beautiful though, but I'd go in the fall.

I'm bound to vacation times, I have no choice.
Unless I really can get a job with some international company But that's all future talk. I need to find a job for this summer first. I need to save up money for tuition and traveling ^_^ Link, you might want to check eBay, though I doubt you can find it. Or afford it
