France... the home of wine

So in France, local farmers are standing on the side of the road handing out red wine in a little baggie with a pamphlet to those who drive by... and I ask myself... WHY OH WHY DON'T I LIVE IN FRANCE?!?! What a wonderful land they live in. Scenario, driving home from work, had a crummy day, can't wait to see your special someone (or your pet, if you are single), and BAM a local farmer from a vineyard on the other side of town gives you a bottle of red wine! Red red wine.... gets to my he-ea-ead. Brilliant, absolutely brilliant.
The reason these local farmers were giving away wine was because the French are buying more foreign wine, and less French wine. So, how do they promote their wine??? THEY GIVE IT AWAY ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TO THE PEOPLE DRIVING BY. Genius.
Orientation week went well here at the University of Akureyri. We grilled on Monday, had department night and sing star on Tuesday, Movie night (Dukes of Hazard) on Wednesday, relaxation on Thursday, and on Friday we went out to Kjarnarskó and ran around and grilled, then went to Sjallin where Drekktu Betur, a question competition which includes a little bit of drinking, don't let the name fool you, took place. All in all it all turned out perfect :)
All right, well I have to get to studying, ciao!

Chicken Soup for the Chris

So, today i spent the entire day basically packing. I'm starting to get a little excited about going home. I took a little break in my day, drove my mum to work and took Chris some Campbell's Chicken Noodle Soup, since he just got his tonsels taken out... aww! Poor kid. Then the Leah-ster is getting 1, yes 1, singular, wisdom tooth out, and she's flipping shit. Poor Gal!!!
AHHHHH i'm getting nervous about going back to the klake! Geeze Luise!

Turning Chinese, I think I´m turning Chinese...

All right, BACK FROM NYC! Oh my God, what a place to be. I seriously can see myself living there. Not just anywhere though, but in China Town. I don´t think we saw more than 5 white people when we were there... it was like being in a completely different country but still in the same country! Totally awesome. But we went to Times Square, 5th Avenue, Rockefeller Center, China Town and walked around and watched people ;) hehe my favourite thing to do! It´s so funny to be there though, because your such a tourist and don´t know anything... don´t know where you´re going, unnecessarily run through massive rain drops cuz your father was yelling "TRAIN" when, for the twentieth time, it clearly wasn´t your train ;) HEHE I tell ya´ll, some funny ass shit happened on that trip. We got lost in the wooden paths of Central Park (not everyone can say that), we went to a Irish Pub where the occupancy was a total of 5 when we got there (it´s all right cuz we just threw some money into the jukebox and had one hell of a time), and we managed to spend AN INSANE amount of money on food, which my dad so greatly and fabulously picked out!!!! ;) Man oh man, it was lovely. London and China Town are the next living stops for Hildur.

And it´s a good day...

All right, day is off to a great start, it's 8:48 in the morning and I've already worked out, am sipping my latte and in one hell of a good mood. Anna and I are gonna eat lunch, I may visit Leah at work, and I have a whole day of studying to look forward to.
Hmm... I was going to write about something so interesting and intelligent, but clearly nothing is coming to mind. I could nag a little bit more, but I sincerely don't feel like it, so i'm going to stop. Maybe I'll write some more later today, maybe not. We'll see. All right, ciao!

Last ALEX-day!!! :(

Alex leaves tomorrow!!! AHHHH what am i gonna do without my merndawg... damn. So, I think i´m gonna go with my mum to Norfolk for a little bit today, then i have to hang out with "look who it is!!!". So last night mum gave me a massage... hell yea! I think she stretched me out to make me at least 5 cm. taller. Most definatly. Starbuck´s was also a place to hang out last night, with my chia and Anna, Leah and Henry to talk to, what could be better? EXCEPT THE FACT THAT WE LISTENED TO A LITTLE MICHAEL BOLTON WHILE WE WERE SITTING THERE.... I NIGHT TO LOVE!!! ;) Yea, I don´t think the other cool cats were liking it as much as me. Then we went to a friends house to hang out, a house full of junk... but still "organized" junk, so we weren´t allowed to play with the many straw hats and giant scissors. Some peeps managed to do it anyways :) (Anna and Alex). Crazyness.
***** Before I forget, LEAH IS A BOWLING PRODIGY****** "Listen guys, i´m not really a bowling prodigy. I´m not that good. It was hallarious. HAHA! (good one for us Anna)
Aight, gotta go get ready...

Hmm... you know what sucks? WHEN TWO OF YOUR BEST FRIENDS DECIDE TO MOVE AWAY! Yea Stína and Vala, I´m talkin bout you! Hrrrmmm... not a happy camper these days about that. :(
Willy life: I am done now with work. My last day at 'The Kingsmill Spa' was on Saturday, and officially my last day with the swim team was on Sunday (there was a banquate). So these days I´m just studying and trying to get everything done before I have to go back to the land of Ice. This weekend my mum and I are going to go to NYC! That´ll most definately be a blast!
Well, my time here is cutting short... only 10 days till I go back....!!!! Jesus, that´s such a short time!
All right, I´m gonna get to doing things once again!
ciao!

www.hi5.com

So, www.hi5.com is the newest thing. You sign up and find people that are your friends. It's kind of like that "friend book", damn i forget what it's called, that the colleges have. Quite interesting.
Darren, the maker of "DARREN KITCHEN" just launched his computer television show tonight, the thing was a complete hit! I think maybe about 70,000 + viewers... that's pretty damn good for a debute show. I'm going to Norfolk tomorrow for a housewarming, but not housewarming party. Gonna get crunked! Oh no, the elephants have started flying again... gotta get some shut eye... adios!
