*giggle*

I'd add a picture of some Norwegian naval soldiers in action (particularly those from Stavanger), but I couldn't find anything worthy enough to bestow onto this humble pink blog.

Gotta love those uniforms...

Yep, I'm in that mood! ;-P I miss being at home!!! Because when I was at home, there would be a better chance for me to witness these buffs firsthand. Here in Oslo, chances are pretty slim. Haven't seen any of these guys yet, besides one time when I was at the central station downtown. Made me kind of homesick when I saw him sitting there opposite of me... Why? 'Cause Stavanger's where it's all happening, that's why! (Yeah, right.)

I remember when I'd wait for my schoolbus to come and pick me up at the train station downtown, me standing rather drowsily on a cold winter morning wishing I was in bed, then suddenly witnessing a bus with the name "KNM Harald Haarfagre" on the side pulling up at the bus station opposite where I'd be standing. There'd be a swarm of naval guys pouring out if it with their exceedingly wonderful uniforms with their belongings close by. And suddenly I wouldn't be as sleepy and cold anymore. Hm, amazing how something like that can just make your day.

And the thing is, every guy I've seen that have been wearing this kind of uniform always looks good. No matter how much a turn-off he may be otherwise. When it comes to uniforms, guys always look smart and very attractive in my eyes... So to all you guys who might potentially read this blog (I fear the pink color of my background may be scaring you away, but still...), if you want to impress me, get yourselves a naval uniform!!!

While I'm on the topic of looking smart, guys don't seem to dress that way anymore. Unless you're working in an office with a dress code, or attending some formal gathering, obv. Otherwise they don't seem to wear any sort of... well, smart clothes. Many guys seem to wear only baggy pants, sneaks and sweatshirts/tank tops/t-shirts. And have hair literally smeared with either gel or wax. Ugh. Every girl's dream. Especially the latter, of course. Yukk! Not to mention the load of so-called "bling" that some guys tend to drown themselves in. Gold rolexes, long thick gold chains and enormous belt buckles. Is this supposed to be impressive to us girls? Perhaps to some. Not to me. I'm sorry to disappoint, but no. Not appealing at all. But uniforms, however... ;-)

Call me old-fashioned ('cause I am), but I am all for the traditional stuff with dating. You know, the guy making the first move of asking me out, being all gentleman, dressing nicely and actually listening to what I'm saying. There's not always complete bollocks coming out of my mouth, ya know!

Ok, enough of this.

Off to philosophize some more over naval soldiers and life in general. Ta ta!

Huggies (YES! DIAPERS GALORE!!!),
