Biology

Hi Internet!

How are things with you? Life is pretty hectic for me these days and I feel like I'm constantly tired... *yawn* I was in Icelandic, Danish and Biology in school today, and allthough I enjoy Icelandic and Danish very much I really could do with an Edward in my Biology class... it's not that it's difficult, it's just mainly boring and so not one of the things I'm interested in LOL. I have been getting into the "17 year old groove" like crazy these days LOL I love hanging out with kids so much younger then me - makes me feel young again LOL No I'm only joking, mostly I hang out with people older then me because there are quite a lot of "back to school" people in my school :) which is pretty nice :) I did realize after a while that I do know a lot of people in school which is fun :) Well enough about school.

I forgot to tell you, we got a couple of kittens on Monday they are about 7 weeks old and both boys they are also brothers :) one is black and white and called Harry James Potter the other one is gray and white and called Archibald Sebastian Black ;) Harry and Archie have been settling in with us just fine, with some minor accidents such as kitty pee on my bag (no I wasn't happy) Archie pulling the guitar on top of himself, Ragnar locking the kittens in a drawer (we discovered it when he was fetching a blanket to the living room to tuck them in, he decided they wanted to live in a drawer...) and a few other incidents. The other nights our bed was the party ground they were fighting on top of us until we ended up having to close our door (which is usually open so we can hear the children since their doors are closed) but it was ok, they finally fell asleep :)

well I must go play with the kittens

Back to school

Hi Internet

The day has come (and gone LOL) I started school, FINALLY I went to pick up my time table and booklist on Thursday and bought all the books, the grand total of money spent on books is THIRTY FIVE THOUSAND KRÓNUR.. I know I know, that's not a lot compared to many students but it's bad enough for my taste! that's not even including school supplies! I went to my first classes yesterday which were Danish 102 and I was the oldest student in class (other students were mostly 16 year olds) so I felt old... then there was a biology class, where I was also the oldest student (and commented on as such by the teatcher who refferred to me as the "most respectable student in that class") well I got the best locker in school so that's good and I chatted a bit with one of my classamates... other then that I did some homework (how bad is it the first class this winter and I get Danish assignment! well I just had to read one page but still...LOL)

so now I'm officially a school girl WOOHOO!

How Long...

Hi Internet!

Indeed How long have I waited for tomorrow to come, I will go and pick up my schedule at 1pm and I soo can't wait to see it, see how my classes conflict with each other, see how many gaps there are, see at what time I have to start each morning, and when I get to go home, which subjects I got into and which I didn't, I'm sooo excited I can't wait :) I can't wait to see who else is going to school, that is who I know that are going LOL - I allready know some of my friends are going so that's good :)

I just finished coloring my hair, that is I colored my aunt's hair she did mine :D so my hair will be decent tomorrow, I wish I could say the same about my wardrobe, I still haven't found anything that I want... besides I'm spending all my money on school books, cat toilets, rain outfits for the kids and beautiful beautiful leather boots for me so I guess I can't afford any new clothes :D LOL - the boots are SOOO worth it though LOL

Today I went with my mother to Ólafsfjörður to pick up some things at her old place, like I have nothing better to do on my last day before going back to school *Sheesh* J/K... then we went cat toilet shopping, since she moved and wanted to get a new litterbox for her cat (a closed one since the cat is a slob) and I'm about to get one or two kittens into my home we figured cat toilet shopping was a well needed task...

Wow this was a boring random post...

btw I think I'm in love with anoter man...well...vampire... Eric on the True Blood TV show YUM!!! - the funny thing is that I CAN'T STAND him in the books - CAN'T STAND HIM - but I think I just like him because the actor is hot... LOL

I've been thinking a lot about names lately (yes Colleen this is all your fault LOL) and I am thinking about naming the other kitten (the one who's not called Harry James Potter ) Archibald Sebastian Guttormur Black, Gutti for short...too much? thoughts? maybe I should add the Black to Harry James Potter's name too? Harry James Potter Black? with a hyphin(SP?) or without? LOL

Party time!

Hi Internet!

So it's been a while since my complains-a-lot blog, the birthday party went well (allthough due to the postponing and summerclosing in the pre-school none of the kids from Ragnar's class showed up) parts of our families came (a lot of out of towners) and the cake happened, I didn't find any Batman or Superman small toy things to put on top of the cake and my days of ambitious icing creations are over (seriously, I will not do that to my kid when he's this old - the humiliation of last years pirate clown was too much) but I did find this handy thing to put on top of the birthday cake - a batman balloon! yes that was the Birthday Cake and a helium filled balloon on top, and what do Birthday cakes have incomon most of the time? yes you guessed it CANDLES - and candles plus helium, not a great idea - fortunetly I realised this about four seconds before I lighted the candle and managed to NOT blow up the place LOL - *phew* - Ragnar got a lot of cool things like the Star Wars "build your own" light saber (to quote Gummi on the subject "This is the best present *I* have gotten for years") and a Star Wars space ship and some kind of a ball/frisby thing that we haven't tried out yet... along with a lot of much needed clothing and all kinds of things :)

Well, on to the closer happenings, Gummi and I went out on Friday night, see in Iceland the first Monday of August is the "off day of shop owners and clerks" - which means it's one of the biggest traveling and drinking and celebrations weekends in Iceland. Naturally this means that none of the actual shop owners and clerks get the weekend off LOL - although most of the big stores are closed on the Monday. Anyhoo... On Friday we went out, we bought tickets to see my favorite Icelandic band Nýdönsk and got my aunt to sit with the kids (since the club didn't open until midnight and the band wasn't supposed to come on until one o'clock this wasn't a happy task for her LOL - the club was supposed to close at 5 am) Well we went to a friends(this is actually a more complex situation due to the fact that this guy is not only Gummi's childhood friend and a close one at that but he's also my ex...yes I have a rather weird life...) house to start drinking (well me and our friend started drinking, Gummi quit drinking some three years ago) well then the friend's brother and his girlfriend got home and Gummi and the 17 year old girl got to chatting, they are both Kiss fanatics and all about black metal and deathmetal and all kinds of everything so they keep at it for a while and since I was extremely bored with the Kiss fanatics I went to chat with P (the friend/ex) which is all well and good and we kept drinking and the Kiss fanatics kept talking Kiss and then some other people showed up and Gummi went to pick someone up and took quite some time so we didn't get to the concert until 3am but since the band hadn't gotten on until 2am we had only missed an hour... then we got a phonecall after about an hour that the girl Gummi had picked (up some friend of a friend of P's we didn't know) had forgotten her purse in our car so we decided it was best to go and check but the purse wasn't in the car and we somehow got talked into driving the girl home to look for the purse and then back to the party so we didn't get back to the concert since our babysitter had specified that she didn't want to stay long past 5am ... *sigh*

Well we did have a good time though and we got to hang out with friends and that's all well and good, although I did only get to hear two of my faves by Nýdönsk...

well talk to you later Internet - hope you like my narration of fun events instead of complaining ;)
