I'M DONE! FINITO, FINISHED, NO MORE, FERDIG!
Officially graduated from uni with a Ms in marine biology.
No more school!!!

So watched some clips from the Oscars.. Jon Stewart.. I adore him, but his humor is maybe a bit to.. narrow? (well, that's what it is in norwegian anyway..) for this kind of show.. Dolly Parton is kinda shaped like a barbie doll.. How the hell does she manage to stand upright.. she must have major backproblems. I do enjoy her singing though, and liked the song.
Skipped the ohmygodthankyousomuch's.. well, caught George Clooney's, which I thought was a good one.. he should host the Oscars if that other guy.. Billy Crystal still wants a break.. But anyway, the music they played in the background was annoying and sort of tasteless I thougth. Why are they so concerned about the speech time when they crammed in millionbillion clips and montages in the show.. my god that was alot, and I watched an edited version of the show.
Enjoyed the comedy duo of Meryl Streep and Lily Tomlin. Haven't seen that many Altman movies.. I like MASH, Short cuts and the Player and Gosford Park was ok. Gingerbread man and Dr T were pretty boring though, and I know I've seen Prêt-à-Porter too.. but can't remember a thing about it.. so can't have been that good.
As for the nominated films.. I've only seen two of them.. Brokeback and Crash. Some of them still haven't been shown here yet. There's alot I want to see, but it's so ridicilously expensive to go to the movies.. I'll wait until they come out on DVD..

Thomas Dybdahl with friends, an acoustic concert.
It should have been a seated concert. The music it's much to cosy to be standing up. There should have been large squishy sofas and a fireplace.. well, at least some chairs.. I would have sat down, but I prefer to watch the artist and not peoples legs and asses. I love his voice, and the songs were beautiful with just a guitar or a piano. I don't think I've ever been to a concert where the audience has been this quiet. Where I was standing there was hardly a word spoken during the whole show, even when he was talking about the songs. Says quite a bit about his ability as a preformer.
His friends were Silje Salomonsen which sang and played harmonica on two songs, some guys from the National Bank; Nikolai Eilertsen, Morten Qvenild, Martin Horntveth and one other guy..
Played for almost an hour and a half, which was just enough I thougth. At least for this kind of concert. But again.. that might be just because I was tired. It was a beautiful and different concert, but I do prefer it when the band is with him..
My memory sucks, but here's some of the songs he played:
Cecilia
A lovestory
Henry
Stay home
Two new ones. One he played with the band - apparantly it was the first time they played it live.. can't remember what it was called, but it was good. The other one was just him - no instruments or nothing.. felt like a poetry reading.. it was more like Tom Waitsy singing.. http://www.lyricsandsongs.com/song/558751.html
Rain down on me - after it was loudly requested.. when he came back for his first encore he asked if there were any requests and one loud guy shouted 'rain down on me for fuck sake!..)
It's always been you
One other song called something Always
