And of course

I haven't done anything on this blog this semester.
By this week I need to submit my publication piece to the printers
and be totally finished and handed in on the 10th. I think i'm finally starting
to like the piece. I just hope everything will go as planned and that
I will be finished in good time. Cross fingers

A SLOW START

I'm so far behind on almost every subject this semester. Publication is the worst
one. There is just too much to do, but I have no idea on how to start. I'm doing
this travel journal / treasure hunt book about Melbourne. I think it will be a
nice little remembrance when i'm older. I can't believe it's been more than a
 year since I moved here and I'll be graduating in December.

HOTEL LINDRUM

Friday was our first submission since summer break. 
We were assigned a hotel here in Victoria area and I was assigned to Hotel Lindrum. 
It's in Flinders street, so it was really easy to swing by and take a look at the
exterior and the interior. I really fell in love with the 1920's New York look of
the building and wanted to bring that to the bathroom amenities wich we where to design. 

As the design part, I really wished to achieve something more masculine. I wished that 
my final submission would turn out better then this. I will continue working on the
labels once I get the feedback from my lecturer. I think I would like to go for something
a little bit darker.  

GREAT OCEAN ROAD

AUSTRAILIA DAY

Happy Australia day! Roomies started tidlig, med guitar trubadur, øl og whiskey
rundt 07:00 i dag. Det ble en helt fantastisk dag, med grilling, goon og surfing ned trappene!

FRUSTRERENDE DESIGN

En ting jeg er klar over er at denne bloggen er død. Og er det en ting jeg har

irritert meg over på blogspot. Er at jeg klarer aldri å bli fornøyd med designet.

Furten over design = Ingen oppdateringer.

SURPRISE PARTY

We celebrated Espen's 30th birthday at our house. It was a surprise party,

but the guests where only 30 seconds away when he arrived. They had some

problems finding the place. But still, I think we pulled it off.

The day after Dom slept over and got bored when he woke up. So what else

does a graphic designer do when cleaning up the bottles? Yes, colorcode it!

PARKLIFE

We went to parklife a few weeks ago. I think this was the best one day festival i've ever been to. Good music, beer and dancing with docs for ten straight hours!

SMALL FINDS

Every time I'm in Ormond Road and St.Kilda I find street art here and there.

So today I went to Ormond Road and I finally had my camera with me.

I've absolutely fallen in love with these small galaxy tiles. You can find them

around in St.kilda and ormond

SPRING BREAK

So this week is spring break. I can't believe it's already the middle of semester

one. The time has passed by so fast and this week has been just one lazy week.

Saturday we went to another housewarming where there were bonfire, dance floor,

one hell of a creepy outside toilet and a DJ-stand.

THE BRIGHTON HOUSE

I've totally forgot to show you guys the house I live in with my flatmates.

The house is located a little bit from the city, but it's totally worth it when

we live right next to the beach. We can't wait for the summer to come and

according to people down winter is finally over!

WHAT IS WRONG WITH ARIANNE?

So ever since I arrived here in Melbourne, we've been having some trouble

saying our names to Australians. Okay, some of us are lucky, but I never thought

that my name would ever be a problem. But to my surprise it is! THEY REALLY

DON'T KNOW HOW TO PRONOUNCE OR WRITE ARIANNE or ARIANN...

So to the joy of my being I am now ARI! When they call my name in studio one

and two I'm Ari. When they ask my name at Starbucks I'm Ari. I'm not that grumpy

cause I just finished watching Entourage and one of the cool characters are named Ari,

so I'm fine with it.

But the other day I took the bus home and what do I see and read in the seat in front of me?

Every white bus I've traveled with has ARIANNE on the back on every single seat!

Jeg har lenge lett etter minimalistiske smykker med

kors på, endelig fant jeg et på Sports Girl her om dagen.

Translation:

I've been looking for a minimalistic cross for a

while now and I finally found one!

cruisin'

I stedet for å gjøre lekser tok Anders, Kristian og jeg

oss en sykkel/longboard promenad lang kysten. (godt valg)

I går så var det hele 22-ish varmegrader og alle vet jo at sola

er for å nytes. Etter en liten tur kjørte vi forbi en iskrem

kiosk og da var det bare en selvfølge og kjøpe noe godt!

Vårt hovedmål var å reise til St.Kilda som er den nærmeste byen.

(max 10 min med sykkel) Der finner du blant annet Luna Park

som har verdens eldste berg og dalbane (samme folka som bygde

Coney Island i USA).

Melbourne jukser, her bygger de faktisk en strand!

Ja, jeg vet at det ser ut som at jeg har hentesveis!

Fremme i St.Kilda + Luna Park

Yesterday we had awesome weather so Anders, Kristian

and I decided to go for a ride along the coast. We

decided to go to St.Kilda which is the nearest

inner city suburb. Takes us max 10 minutes with a bicycle.

In St.Kilda you'll see Luna Park, they have the oldest

roller coaster in the world. (they say)

sundown this afternoon

My new friend

Finally I got a sweet little ride down here. It will most

def. be used since it takes us almost 15 minutes to walk

to the supermarket. I got it today (Friday) after my

Photography class! And thank you Ethel & PC for the money

you gave me, it paid for half of the bike. Very much appreciated.

Guess who got her camera back!
