Stories of Iceland

So... The weather is disgusting here! thees is an actual snow storm...There is snow everywhere, it's snowing non-stop and it's really, really, REALLY windy!!! and it's supposed to get worse!!! :-( this is not fair! I did not sign up for this!!! it's too cold! I'm wearing tights and socks AND slippers, and I'm wearing 2 t-shirts and a jumper and a coat and scarf! and I'm inside!!! well actually that's at school and I'm still cold there because all my lessons are in the oldest building of the school which is 100 years old!!! it's not very kind... :S

So there was a Valentines Day disco at my school on tuesday! a very famous icelandic DJ/singer came...Páll Óskar...if anyone watches Eurovision Song Contest they might remember him...he's performance was quite...ehm...controversial....but anyway it was very good...was from 21 - 1 and of course I spent the whole time on the dance floor dancing! it was great fun!!! :D

Then I have some news! I think I will be spending June and July working in Hull! until I go to Newquay! which I am very excited for!!! can't wait! and then afterwards I don't know what to do! what do you think? whould I stay on til september in England or should I go back to Iceland? think I might go back to Iceland and spend some time with my friends and family in Ísafjörð... and I think I'll go visit my family in Vestmannaeyjar (Westman Islands) My aunt (or my cousins wife) died the other day when I was in England...the one that had breast cancer...She had it for nearly 8 years...it had spread to her lungs and bones so it was incurable...we all knew it was going to happen but it is still hard to believe it happened... she never seemed to look ill...the only time you could tell she was ill was when she had chemeotherapy and had no hair...and she only had that three times...I saw her two of those times and it was a sharp reminder that she was seriously ill...My cousin and her and two children a girl two years older than me, 20, and a boy that is a month younger than me...We used to go visit them every summer for a couple of weeks but as we got older and me and Lára started working we haven't spent as much time there...we used to spend all our time and my cousins house playing with his kids...so I think I'll go and spend some time with them...it's been ages since I have and it's always so much fun...might go do this Icelandic tradition which is go and catch all the baby puffins that get confused by the lights on the island and let them go so that they don't get killed by a cat, covered in oil and drown, run over...that kind of stuff...it's really good fun and I haven't done it since I was little...might go act like a little kid all the time :P hehe...

anyways I have to go back to school...have just had a triple lunch break! quite enjoyable since the rest of the class only had a single one and I get to brag about it!!! hehe :D

See Ya!!!

Good to see you are writing again, i missed it! (Did you notice that I´m writing in English?)
But I must say that I´m shocked to see that you haven´t put me in links yet.
