bonne année

2008 came to an end, yesterday. a year that ended with the death of my beloved aunt. she fought against cancer for three years, but had to let go yesterday - the day after my eighteenth birthday. sad, but true. we knew she had to let go, sooner or later. it is, however, unbelievably sad.

"Det er den draumen me ber på
at noko vedunderleg skal skje,
at det må skje --
at tidi skal åpna seg
at hjarta skal åpna seg
at dører skal åpna seg
at berget skal åpna seg
at kjelder skal springa --
at draumen skal åpna seg,
at me ei morgon stund skal glida inn
på ein våg me ikkje har visst om."

i still dressed up and tried to have some fun at new years eve. alcohol + sadness isn't the best combination, however.
