My So-Called Life in 1994

When I was 15 in 1994 the tv-show called Angela was aired at Norwegian tv. I identified with it so much that it still gets emotional when I watch it... I was so in love with Jordan Catelano too and I know lot of my friends where to and everytime I mention the series to girls my age, they go weak at the knees. Unfortunally the show was canceled after just one season and one can wonder if it just got to real for American tv. Anyways.. Jordan Catelano was played by the very handsome.... Jared Leto and Angela was played by Claire Danes, no wonder it was a great show, ha? Oh, and it's called My So-called Life in English. So with further ado I give you a few of my favorite clips from the series. Enjoy :)

Jordan realizes that he actually love Angela with the help of Shakespeare... Lovely


Jordan never wanna show that he loves Angela and this is kind of the defining moment:



Jordan sneaks in to see Angela late at night


Later they brake up for several reasons and this is how it ends


Angela's mother expects her old boyfriend from High school to drop by but ends up meeting Jordan for the frist time

Friday fun!

Time to give you people out there some Friday fun! This is the world history from a Norwegian perspective by the Norwegian comedians "Raske menn" (Fast men). For all of you that don't know Thor Heyerdahl is a quite famed Norwegian explorer and he used to speak English like that and was always used for anything because he was so so famous... (or maybe not?). He also leaded the opening show at Lillehammer when we hosted the Olympic games in Norway i 1994, as you might have figured out.. I think this is so funny that I cry, even though I must have watched it about 50 times.

*For you that are not Norwegian:

• Asbjørnsen and Moe are two men that collected all the fairy-tales of Norway in the 1800's. The fairy tales are very common in Norway and everybody knows that it should be ESPEN not ODD.

• Det kom et skip til Bjørgvin i 1342 - is a book describing how the Black Plague came to Norway. Used frequently in Norwegian schools and often used by people my age to remember when the Black Plague really took place... (What was the name of that book.... hm ... :)

• Sputnik: Also a Norwegian country artist with a horrible song about Johanne.
