I suppose I should do like the others and list my Christmas presents. They're just so... many!

From ze family

-The Last Mimzy and Tuck Everlasting from Mum. (I've seen Tuck Everlasting a few years ago and it was quite pretty. We watched The Last Mimzy on Christmas Day and it's... hard to describe. It had its flaws, but it's still very good.)
-Aska, ( Read more... )

Had a couple of good, useful classes today. Once again I chuckled about the fact that my notes probably don't make sense to anyone but myself. Sometimes they even have little drawings. (Like a tiny vicious bat, emphasizing the angst in the poem, and a miniature Freud with a cigar, pointing out something about sexuality ( Read more... )

I have a schedule for next term. Since I picked my courses in a hurry, it's kind of funny, so the next few months should be... interesting ( Read more... )

In case anyone cares: the answers to the music meme.

Yesterday we held a Tim Burton marathon at Alda's place. Apart from me and Alda, there was Lísa, Sunna, Halla the Black, Heiðar and Halla the Infrared. We watched five films; "Sleepy Hollow", "Batman", "Batman Returns", "Beetlejuice" and "The Nightmare Before Christmas". Between the last two we ( Read more... )

I'm not in 14 einingar anymore. Now I'm in 23. I think I'll try this for a few weeks before I decide whether I should drop a subject ( Read more... )

I went swimming today, because Kristján begged me. I really don't like the way I smell after I've gone swimming. At least I got ice cream. *Homer Simpson voice* Mmmm, ice cream ( Read more... )

Days until I'm officially an adult: 4 and counting
Days until Alda's and Lísa's birthday: 2 and counting
I've decided that I absolutely rock. You can call me vain but I won't care because I'm very happy right now. WEEE!

Yeah, so I didn't fail geology. Lookie:

Philosophy: 9
Children's literature: 9
Icelandic: 7
P.E.: 8
Geology: 7(!)
Physics: 9
Psychology ( Read more... )

Only one exam left and that's philosophy. I wasn't intending to get a good grade in philosophy - I wouldn't have cared that much if I would have failed (although the thought of having spent all the hours in those stuffy classrooms listening to Baldur in vain would have annoyed me). But suddenly a little angel appeared on my shoulder and told me to ( Read more... )

I played football yesterday and my legs still hurt. (The British sort of football - the one Americans call soccer.) Me and sports = not a good match. Had fun, though, even though I pretended to be absolutely fit when I was so worn out that I wanted to drop on the ground and die ( Read more... )

Wow. I finally finished the Icelandic project I'd been procrastinating for ages. Now that I actually worked on it instead of staring at it, I'm actually quite proud of it. For the assignment I read two children's books about magic and compared them. I didn't do too well on the presentation in class because I couldn't think of anything to say. On ( Read more... )
