Title: Terror in Oslo
Post by: Wildfire on July 22, 2011, 12:31:50 PM

In case you haven't heard, there has been a terrorist-attack in Oslo, Norway. A car-bomb in front of a government building. Furthermore there were an shooting in a summercamp in Utøya that might be related.

I have friends and family in Norway (all okay, thank goodness) and this is rather worrying and kind of strange. Norway hasn't really done anything to become a target, has never experienced terror or school shootings before.

Stay strong Norway! My thoughts go to your all.

My heart goes out to them.  And I'm glad to hear your family/friends are OK! (I thought you were still in Norway yourself...are you studying abroad?)

Ah no. I'm from Denmark. My aunt and her family lives in Norway, but I'm Danish through and through ^__^ I haven't ever been to Norway for more than a few weeks at a time. Perhaps you're thinking of someone else?

Ohh, that's right, I was thinking of Blackbird.  I tend to associate people with their avatars, and her Venka avatar has similar coloration to your character (minus the red streaks ^_^).

Speaking of...Blackbird, you out there and OK?

It was terrible news indeed. One person capable pf killing so many innocent people. I'm very sorry for all the people that are affected by this.
