hey there macaroni!

I bought a sofa on Thursday!!!
I won't get it until Tuesday though. It's not a pleasant sight, but it was fairly inexpensive, so I decided to do it. Buy the damn thing.
Last night I went to a pajama cocktail party. FUN FUN FUN! We were all there in our pj's playing board games (ahhh, you know games that are made out of cardboard. What are they called again, what are they called again?? haha!) and having a load of fun. All was going well, until we started taking pillows from the bedroom and had a brilliant pillow-fight. Not only did we destroy a few pillows, but we also ended up in our skimpy little panties and bra's. NOT, but this is what some guys think of when girls get together for a little pj party. Thought I would pour a little gasoline on the fire :)
well, don't have much more to say,

a load of crap...

What shall I say???

Don´t you hate it when you have so much to say, but you can´t say it? There´s so much bubbling inside you, but still, you are unable to understand what it means? Well, that´s my situation right now.

So dance today was different. We had a different teacher teach us, a very nice looking young man. Always fun to have a couple of those. ;) Too bad they´re all married or seriously bound by their lucky ladies. We did a crazy hip hop dance. It wasn´t like the up down on the ass and spin yourself kind, but rather like usher hip hop dancing. It was pretty cool. So next time ya´ll see me on the dance floor... BACK UP! Esther and I are gonna blow your minds!

So I was told today that my picture is everywhere to be found. Man, aren´t yall who see them damn lucky ;) haha! I have always been very fond of pictures. When I was younger I always wanted a camera. It wasn´t until I was in the 6th grade (I think) that I got a camera. Back then camera´s were a little bit more expensive, especially to get the film developed. Since then, I love taking pictures. It has something to do with how the picture saves and stops the moment. The moment is kept forever in the little picture, a picture that you may never be able to capture again. That´s why I love pictures, love taking pictures. One moment lasts a lifetime.

ANNA AND LEAH, come visit me!!! I miss you guys so much it hurts.

Trip to Reykjavík.... STORY TIME!

Hello great visitors of Hildur's blog! And welcome again to another exciting adventure to Hildur's World of adventure and excitement!!
This weekend the school went on a "field trip" to Reykjavík. Damn, party party party party AND field trip. Haha, well, the schedule was as follows: Thursday we left for Reykjavik, got to the hotel and PARTIED. Friday: We visited Hotel Saga where some companies were introducing their business etc... it was borring as SHIT! Then we went on a great field trip to UNICEF, I'm very glad we went there! Then we went to RÚV, the National Broadcasting Station, it was all right. Probably much more fun for those who are studying journalism etc. Then we partied the rest of the night. Saturday: met up with Stína and shopped shopped shopped... then PARTIED PARTIED PARTIED!!! Holy crap!
So, Akureyri city, here I am. Ready to take on anything that gets in my way.

cheers!
-H-

What a lecture we had today....

So today there was a lecture about drug-use in Akureyri. For those of you who are unfamiliar with Akureyri, have drugs been on the top of discussion when Akureyri is mentioned.Today, we were so lucky to get a spokesman from the office of the Sýslumann, which can roughly be translated to the office of the town "sheriff". Well, he came to the University and gave a lecture about drugs, what drugs were, how drug users have a "disease" and how we should fight that "disease". Now, listening to this lecture were quite a few people who I know are in AA. They were not too keen on hearing that drug users had a disease. Rather, that the drugs brought about them an addiction, if I understood correctly.
The speaker also said how cannabis was less harmful than harder drugs, and that this was scientifically proven. He also said that children found with alcohol under the legal age are unaplicable to punishment. Then the genious also pointed out that those who start using drugs use them before they use alcohol, and that kids these days have a hard time finding alcohol.

For the record, this is complete bullshit.

As many of us have tried cannabis, some of us liked it, some of us did not. Out of most of the people who have tried cannabis, I believe they have tried alcohol before lighting up the pipe. On the other note, for those people who have gone into harder drugs, they did not start off using the harder drugs, but was cannabis the so called "gate-way" drug to those other drugs. For the record, the speaker did not know what I was talking about when I mention that cannabis was a "gate-way" drug. Don´t get me wrong, I´m not saying that all people who use cannabis are lead to other drugs, but those who have gone to use harder drugs usually do so by first using cannabis. Then in my opinion when one speaks of as drugs being a bad thing (as the speaker did), I do not believe one can say that cannabis is not as bad as other drugs, for it often leads from one to the other.
Now, because cannabis is illegal, I also criticize the speaker for saying that one drug is less harmful than another drug. Who is he to decided that. Would cannabis be legal, I would accept that statement from him, but whereas it is not, I think it was a very unprofessional thing for a man with his status to say.
I also want to make a remark about how he dealt with alcohol. "Now, I´m sure we all had a taste of alcohol before we were the age of 18." Wow, what a role-model. Way to respect the laws of the land.
That´s all I have to say of the matter.

Please comment on this subject, for it is one that touches people all around the world.

pictures anyone?

Here are some pictures that were taken this Christmas. As we can see... we have great fun with the camera, and my inhaler. I´m glad you all can laugh at my handicap!

Well, this weekend was fun. I guess I´ll say that my reason for celebrating Thursday, Friday and Saturday was because I just finished a course and am waiting for my next one, Anna´s birthday party was this weekend, and because I had some chatting that needed to be done with several friends. Does that cut it??? Well, it´s just a good thing that I wasn´t "under the influence" yesterday... cuz I had some laundry that I had to do today (and God knows we don´t want to do it hungover!!!)
I may be going to see a movie tonight. We´ll see if that pulls through.
So... next weekend is the annual school "field trip" to Reykjavík!!! WOOOHHOOOO!!! It´s going to be so much fun! Can´t wait to get my update on the life in the big city. Stína will see to that. Speaking of the trip, I have to make the songbook that will be sung over and over and over again on the bus, in the hotel, and quite possibly downtown... so I better get on that.
I´M ON IT... I´M ON IT...
SHE ON IT... SHE ON IT...!!!!!
LOVE YOU ALL!
Hildur dirty dancing and humping the floor with my thong completely sticking out, while my girlfriend watches!!! HAHAHA! (ok, only several people are gonna get that, but it´s DAMN funny!)

HEY YA'LL!!!!
ANNA'S BIRTHDAY WAS ON WEDNESDAY!!! HAPPY BE-LATED BIRTHDAY GIRL!!!! HOPE YOUR PARTY IS ROCKIN!!!

the weekend was brilliant!

This weekend was crazy!! Crazy, crazy and a little bit more crazy. My voice has definitly disappeared from my throught, and I just finished writing my presentation. Let's just hope it goes well tomorrow.
So, the rents are going to Jamaica tomorrow... I told them Akureyri in January is to die for. They didn't buy it and decided to rather go to Jamaica. Tell me there's something wrong with the picture ;)
I STILL haven't gone skiing here in Akureyri yet. There's something definitly wrong with that picture. I have to get my ass up on that mountain!! So, I have come to the conclusion that I am a slob. My stuff is all over the place! Good times.
OH, by the way... I started jazz-ballet last week! Yep, out of all the girls in there, I do believe I am the only one that looks like a football player in a dance class. I am so darn stiff!!! ah ha ha ha!!!!
AT LEAST I'M NOT DOING SPARKLES LIKE LEAH!!!!
arhahahahaha!
Good Night,
Hildur Sólveig

In the newpaper 'Fréttablaðið' today was a column about Arwin Miewes, a German man who admitted to eating a fellow man. Miewes advertised for an man who he could slaughter and eat. Surprisingly, a man named Brandes answered his advertisement, and just like his advertisement ready, they performed.
Miewes was found guilty of manslaughter, but now the case is to be retried, whereas the other side wants to say that it was murder.

Arwin Miewes. I will never forget that name. An interesting case that we reviewed in my 'Civil Law' course.

Won´t you take me back to the place I love...

Aww man... yeps, when I'm supposed to be studying, I'm looking at old pictures. That's just perfect! WELL, I guess it's all right if the pictures take my mind back to LONDON! LONDON BABY! Yeps, Stína and I had the best time there! I still get butterflies in my stomach when I think about it. It was seriously one of the best times in my life. Seriously.

Happy Martin Luther King Day

Today is a day to reflect on how the battles of some has given us a brighter future. Equality of people. This battle will continue on until all who were created, are treated equally.

guess who...

Aww... hvar er Týra??












So, I´m all alone. My roomate has left me! (sniff sniff) She hasn´t really left, just gone to Reykjavík for a while. Well, at least I have some good news... I got my chirpy parakeet back :s Woohoo.

Well, I don´t have much to say other than "LOOK AT ALL YOUR LITTLE MATCHING OUTFITS!" -wow, GIJoes always does it for me. :)

SMILE!
Hildur

when does the press start to feel the pressure?

Anna, of course the wickedy burg of William is not functioning right as of our departure! Was anything else in the picture?
As to answer some questions, I had a blast at the concert! THANK YOU VALA FOR GETTING ME A TICKET!
So Iceland has been in an uproar today because of events that happened yesterday. One newspaper in Iceland, known for overexploiting personal information and pictures, reported yesterday on the front page that a "Onehanded teacher guilty of child mollestation" (I do not have the article in front of me at the moment, but do believe it sounded something like that). Along with that GINORMOUS heading, was a picture of this man. Now, why is this so disturbing??
First of all...
- The man was not found guilty. Not only was he not found guilty, but THIS "CASE" WAS JUST IN THE EARLY STAGES OF INVESTIGATION! The newspaper printed that he was guilty before having any sort of trial. Why would a newspaper write something so false? The word GUILTY could have been replaced by so many other CORRECT words. Then you have to start wondering why the hell is this newspaper writing about something they don´t have a bloody clue about. They say a man is guilty of mollestation pre-trial. Innocent until proven guilty. Is that not how a well established country function? It's like DV is willing to print any ole bullshit, false or true, that it hears. 30 steps too far.
Second of all...
- The man commited suicide after having seen the newpaper. Is his suicide connected to the adverse article in the newspaper? Yes, that is my opinion. Did he leave a suicide letter saying he was innocent. Yes he did. Will he ever be able to testify to argue his case? NO.

DV is a shabby newspaper that either needs to halt its publishing, or do a complete 360 in it's news writing.

Because of a preposterous newspaper, a sad and premature death was the result for one man.

tralalala!!!

Akureyri.... Akureyri... Akureyri.....
What more can I say. I am here in Akureyri now. I flew into Iceland Saturday morning, went to the Hættu! concert with Stína and then Vala. Then Valsý and I went to the famous and dazzeling downtown Reykjavík. Oh how Terrentino had his facts right. HAHAH KIDDING!
So, just so that we have it straight, I had a splendid time in Williamsburg. Thanks everyone!!
First day back in school went by fast. We went around the classroom and introduced ourselves. We´re so professional.

Well, I'm starting to feel guilty because i'm not writing as often as I have in the past... but along with the lazyness comes a hatrid of computers. I don't know what it is... but I just really despise being on the computer... takes up too much of my valuable time. I guess it has a lot to do also with the fact that the computer that I usually use is in my fathers study.... which is SWAMPED with little allergy causing particles.... and I usually choke in there... cough cough cough... but anyways...
Well, Vala just told me that I can watch the Icelandic Bachelor on the internet... got to go...

the single darling

and here I am...

howdiehooooo!!!
It's Sunday. Sunday sunday sunday. I've almost been in the States for a week. Let's recount what I have done so far.
1. Read a book (Synir Duftsins... yes Stína, a real book)
2. Took Týra (the little dog) twice to Colonial Williamsburg for a walk
3. Watched 5 of Einar´s soccer games.
4. Gone to buy coffee at either Aroma´s og Starbucks.
5. Gone once in the hot-tub at my house.

As everyone will be able to derive, I have not done jackshit here. AND that´s the way I like it. I´m not going to work, worry or fuss. I´m just gonna be, and enjoy being.
THERE YOU HAVE IT

xoxo
the chilled one.

I'M SO GLAD THAT IT'S OVER...

CHRISTMAS VACATION HERE i COME!!!!

Test is over, 5 girls from my class went and celebrated by renting a hot tub and drank champagne, class dinner of pizza, and then downtown for a little bit, and now I'm home in my very cozy bed... about to watch Simpsons. I would have thought that I would've been crazy drunk and fun tonight... but I'm just quite mellow, ready for A GOOD NIGHTS SLEEP. :) Man am I excited. Well, so long you all and good night.

fullveldisdagur -> 1.des

Wow... so definitly did not get any posts on that last blog. I thought people would be more interested in the case... guess not :)
So, today and tomorrow.... AND THEN I'M DONE!!! There's no school today so I get to study study study. Today is Fullveldisdagur, Iceland's "independence" day is today. On Dec. 1, 1918, Iceland got rule over matters going on in Iceland from Denmark, but still stayed under the same crown as Denmark. Iceland didn't get total independence until 17. June 1944... but today is a festive day also. I think Icelanders like to celebrate a lot of things during the winter time because it's so dark here, and so people won't get sad... :)
SO EVERYONE SMILE!!!
Well, I have to go study... study study study for my test tomorrow... and then DONE!!!
XOXO
