I'm still alive
I've been very lazy in regards to updating my lj. It's the result of two combining factors, a: Access to the internet only on weekends, which is also the only time I have with my family. Since it is summer, the weekends are usually filled with various activities. b: the temperature. When it's so warm, I spent less time in front of the computer. There's not much to tell now, the weather's getting warmer. I've been working, traveling a bit (Lüneburg for work, Bremerhaven, Bremen) spending time at the beach, done some more shopping. Just regular summer activities. My keyboard skills are completely messed up, I'm currently typing on a German keyboard with an Icelandic keyboard setting. It was ok until I started typing at work, with a German keyboard and a German keyboard setting. It'll take some time after I stop working for me to get over this phase. I have now stopped looking for clothes for the trip to Crete. I think I have enough. But I can hardly wait, the trip will be great. You may expect my lj to be updated rather rarely this summer. It will get better in the fall...hopefully ;op Current Mood: cheerful | | Saturday, July 17th, 2004 | | 2:59 pm |
Here I am
I have been way to lazy to write anything here. I was in Reykjavík, as you perhaps know, but now I'm in Germany with my family. I have done a little bit of shopping since I got here. Two pants, two sweaters, a skirt, a pair of shorts, a shirt, a necklace, a pair of earrings, a handbag and three pairs of shoes. I was desperately in need of shoes. I think that's all I've bought of clothes and accessories since I got here. I've got a job in Lüneburg, answering the phone, being at the reception, writing letters and just doing things that come up and need to be done. It's very nice. It does mean that I can only stay with my family at weekends but it's a fine job. I went to Hamburg a week ago (some of the shopping was done there) and there we saw Bill Clinton. I found it very interesting, you don't expect to see Bill Clinton on the streets of Hamburg. He turned and waved at us, he was about 6 meters away and waved directly at us. The weather is great, I'm sitting here in a short skirt and a bikini top. I just came in from our backyard because I had to escape the heat for a while | | Tuesday, June 22nd, 2004 | | 8:45 am |
I know I've been away for some time, I don't use the internet very much these days. There's not much going on, I'm enoying myself in Reykjavík, although I can hardly wait to go home to my family. I'll make it short, since I've got to run. I'll post again soon. Tschüss. | | 8:44 am |
I am The Lovers
The Lovers often refers to a relationship that is based on deep love - the strongest force of all. The relationship may not be sexual, although it often is or could be. More generally, the Lovers can represent the attractive force that draws any two entities together in a relationship - whether people, ideas, events, movements or groups.

Exams are over
It's sweet. I love being able to read what I want, watch TV when something I like is on and just to have some spare time to do whatever I want. I am currently reading The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown and loving it. I find it so fascinating but I know that had I started it before the last exam was over I wouldn't have been able to focus on those books until I'd finished this one. I just read an e-mail from one of the teachers that comes with us on the graduation trip. It made me realize that in only 82 days, I'm going to Crete. I can hardly wait. I probably won't see my friends again until we meet in Leifsstöð, but when that happens it will be great. Current Mood: excited | | Friday, May 28th, 2004 | | 3:15 pm |
Mornings...
I actually like mornings. Particularly when I'm not in a rush and don't even have to be awake. I'm rather fond of sleeping as well, so I don't often get up very early. This morning, however, I woke up just before half past four. I couldn't fall asleep again so I got up and started reading math. After about an hour I had had enough and went out for a walk. I went to the park, I've never been there before six in the morning. It's actually closed at that time but the gate was open (it's actually being fixed and can't be closed). I walked around in the fog for fifteen minutes, it felt like being in a world of my own. I could hear birds singing in the trees (yes, that kind of bird, not a seagulls) and it was very relaxing. It felt so nice, I could forget about everything, exams and all, and just be me, alone in a mystical world, the world still asleep. Of course, it had to end. But it was nice while it lasted.

The first one's already over
I had my first exam today, it was my first math-exam. I think I did fine. I'm not in the mood to study for my next exam (which is also mathematics). Right now I'm on a break. I'm sitting in my window, the doors leading out to the balcony are open, it's the only way to get a connection from my bedroom. Therefor, using the internet can cause a very cool temperature in my bedroom. I'm just thankful that the temperature is a positive number, otherwise I doubt I'd bother. I must go now, 3 dimensional geometry awaits. Current Mood: relaxedCurrent Music: The outside noises (birds, traffic etc) | | 2:03 pm |

I watched Eurovision on Saturday. Of course I did, one can't miss that. My cousin made one excellent comment: "Once a year, you force yourself to watch bad music for an entire evening, and force yourself to enjoy it. Then, when it comes around next year, you've forgotten how bad it was and watch it again". I always enjoy Eurovision, but different standards are required than usually. I found out that next year I can go to Bjarg for Body Balance three times of week instead of two (me very happy). The day after tomorrow I get to meet my mom. I can hardly wait, I'm so looking forward to it. | | Wednesday, May 12th, 2004 | | 10:17 am |
Hey,
I know I haven't posted in a while, I've got a lot to do but didn't go to any classes where I use my computer last week. I'm tired, my back and one shoulder hurt and I wish it was Friday already. There's just the matter of all the stuff I need to get through first, including one of my wonderful physics reports, thankfully, the last one. The weekend will be nice, perhaps a Eurovision party with the girls (since we're already in the finals). And next Wednesday my mom will come to the country and I get to meet her. I can hardly wait, I'm so looking forward to it. Current Mood: excited | | Thursday, April 29th, 2004 | | 1:50 pm |
I guess I'm not very interesting... no-one seems to want to ask me any questions. Ah, well. I have enough to do and plan. My class is planning on taking a science trip to London next year, I hope that we can go through with it, I'd like to. That's all I wanted to share with you right now. Current Mood: indescribableCurrent Music: My class, as usual | | Wednesday, April 28th, 2004 | | 10:14 am |
So much to do, so little time.
Yesterday I got a call informing me that I needed to choose one of my selective course again. Nothing of the things I selected for that part of my schedule will be taught. I can live with that. I have an exam today, another on Friday and one on Monday as well. Always enough to do, my life keeps me from getting bored. I'm sitting in a geology class and I'd like to translate a part of my notes: "The ice brings cold and white bears that eat people, dogs and porridge". These notes can be rather peculiar. | | Monday, April 26th, 2004 | | 11:12 am |
I just found out that pönnukökuís is an actual term used in geology. Og borgarís eru brot úr skriðjöklum sem kelfa í sjó. Current Mood: amusedCurrent Music: Jónas að tala um hafís | | 11:02 am |
Return to normal life
This week I'll attend school every day from Monday and until Friday. It's strange. Last week has not been very eventful, rather sedate. I did go marching in a parade last Thursday. I had a math exam last Friday, calculated the length between Havana and Lissabon. Nothing new happening. I got my physics reports back, A, A and A-. Quite acceptable, especially since they took a long time in writing. On Friday I baked a cake with Lori, it was very good even though I had a hand in making it. On Saturday we ate it...mmm... | | 10:52 am |
Stole this from: Every other person on LJ
I want everyone who reads this to ask me 3 questions, no more no less. Ask me anything you want--ANYTHING. Then, I want you to go to your journal, copy and paste this allowing your friends (including myself) to ask you anything. Just for the fun of it. | | Wednesday, April 21st, 2004 | | 9:32 am |
I'm back...
I find it rather difficult to start writing again after I take a vacation. But here I am, at last. Germany was great, we had so much fun there. We visited the Alps and Austria, walked up the world's tallest church tower, bought chocolate, visited a nuclear power plant and a biological farm, found a great ice cream shop that sold italian ice cream, visited castle Neuschwanstein, walked around downtown Ulm and did a lot of other interesting things. The easter vacation was a very sedate time, I didn't do much of anything and had nothing to do with the internet for a week and a half (a long time for me). Now I'm back in school, which is very nice. But there are only five weeks to go until exams... time really flies. | | Thursday, March 25th, 2004 | | 2:16 pm |
It's less than 10 hours now...
...until I'm off. I'm sitting in a geology lesson and we're talking about nuclear power. And next week I'll get to visit a nuclear power plant in Germany. I think it will be extremely interesting, we don't have stuff like that here. We actually have things that work in a similar way, producing energy with the use of steam, except that we get the heat from the earth, not from nuclear power. There are so many things that we'll get to see. I still don't feel like I'm leaving the country in just a few hours, it's so strange. I can hardly wait. | | Wednesday, March 24th, 2004 | | 9:44 pm |
I just learned that a couple of people that I don't know added me to their friends list. It's strange, I've always known the people who read my live journal in person. But I guess these persons found something interesting in this livejournal... Current Mood: surprised | | 9:37 pm |
I haven't posted anything for a while, I know. I've been extremely busy over the last few days, especially with my trip to Germany coming up. Last Monday we had a sports lesson (as always) and I was dreading it. We were supposed to play volleyball, a sport I'm not particularly good at and my likeness for it is somewhere along the lines of my capabilities. But it turned out well, only 9 people showed up (out of 20), no-one was any good and we had a great time. It can be fun to play volleyball when everybody sucks, not just me. I'm leaving tomorrow night, I can't really believe it yet, it's still so unrealistic. I have a lot to do before that, so much work, but it'll all be over soon. I'm so looking forward to this trip, it'll be great. I probably won't post very much until after easter. And if you hadn't figured it out already, I decided to go to Ulm. Current Mood: excited | | Monday, March 15th, 2004 | | 4:18 pm |
At last
After one semester and six weeks, someone decided that students just might read books. And might need a bookcase. So I finally have gotten one. I couldn't wait so long and bought a bookcase in October or November, but it's very good to have more space. Then I can bring in more books... Current Mood: satisfied |
