I was born in Oslo, the capital of Norway (that's
in Europe for those of you who don't know). I
grew up in a village high up in the mountains. I
spent my teens there - it was cold and boring.
Then I moved back down south to Oslo to study at university
college.
In the Western zodiac I'm an Aries - a fire sign
- and in the Chinese a Fire Horse. Which I guess
is interesting if you're into astrology, which
I'm not. Though Fire is indeed my element.
Norway is a cold, dark and dismal country - in
other words: perfect for a goth...! (Sad thing
is, it's not exactly a spawning ground for goths;
those who're drawn towards the dark side tend to
end up as black metal-satanist-teen rebels. I
guess the Gothic style seem too frighteningly
feminine to the stalwart Viking descendants.
Scandinavian males are such sissies!)
I'll never going to grow up to become a
boring adult - what's fun in being boring and
taking yourself way to serious anyway. Though
being childlike does not mean being irresponsible
and infantile...or a mental midget, for that
matter... Now, this doesn't mean I make great
efforts towards being spontaneous and childish -
it's a matter of trying not to loose what's
already there.
I am a dreamer, poet, philosopher, intellectual, spiritual
mystic and a bit of a hedonist.
How I am depends on my mood .
I can be
extrovert/introvert, optimistic/pessimistic,
hopeful/bitter, trusting/suspicious.
I'm not at all weird, I am only a very
individualistic person...honest! Nor am I mad
- just....Reality Challenged
Contrary to popular belief, I'm only a violence theorist
(that is: mentally violent) - not physically violent...
I'm a Norse Old Faith pagan. You can be whatever you
want to be, as long as you don't try to shove
your convictions down my throat... Try preaching
to me, and I'll whack you repeatedly over the
head with Mr. Bunny (This might not sound much of
a threat, but actually he's a stuffed toy bunny
with a stomach full of lead pellets...)
