49. Internship



As one of those people who depend on experience to properly learn in depth (how I got through the IB in a UWC I don't know..), I have always dreamed of and, secretly, planned on doing lots of internships. 

Sometimes, when the days get rough, I escape into the tough, but fabulous universe of my alter ego, Farrah. She is the assistent of the world's most famous interior designer, Rebecca Rader, and has a walk-in closet that mysteriously resembles Carrie Bradshaw's...

Point being, after having spent my Christmas holiday inside (in freakin' Qatar!) writing applications, I unbelievably managed to get the most amazing internship ever! A few days after having sent my (15) applications I did my first round of terrorising people's answering machines and a short while later, I got an email saying ..

...It would be great to have you "following" us around for 2 weeks. (we thought your voice mail was very sweet and funny). Because my husband is an architect -students get to see both disciplines...

I mean, come'on! The amazing Jeanne Finnerty went on to tell me that a couple of friends of theirs wanted me to stay with them while I was in Boston, and also, she would try and get me in with Wells and Fox for a day or two! I still can not believe how lucky I've been.

Anyways, I'll be getting in the air in a couple of days, and I just wanted to let all my (5?) readers know that I'll be updating my blog at least once a day for the next month. Boston, here I come! Also, NKF wanted to make a student portrait of me, which is fun.

Sketching while listening to my teachers go on and on and on. They're great though!

47. well worn floors


One of the things I value the most is the beauty of well worn floors. The perfect flaw's bringing life to a room.

46. Santa Maria Novella

Cut my hair yesterday. Also, I wanted to share some inspiration from the art history class we had today. 
Santa Maria Novella in Florence is, chronologically, the first Basilica in Florence. You can read more about it here. I'm mostly interested in how absolutely beautiful it is! The entire facade is designed on the principles of the golden rule (which most things from that period (1400-). I can't really put it into words, but there's just something about the intricate design of this building. Come to think of it, it reminds me of this table I used in this polyvore set in this post. Be inspired people! Be inspired!

45. At school


Today is such a beautiful day in Bergen! The weather is amazing, the streets are full of happy people.. and I'm stuck at school. I told my teacher yesterday that I would finish this one project yesterday or today, and he was like "Alrite, let's make that Sunday evening." He even made a note of it in his book. So here I am. Trying to prove him wrong!

I've been good today though! Woke up early, cleaned my appartment, took pictures of things I need to sell and for kafekonsept.no and now I'm here working.
