Afi minn og Amma mín

My life is so good. I usually am happy, and I usually choose to have a optimistic outlook on life. At the end of January, however, I was having a hard time. A lot of it came from the fact that I didn't have direction in my life. The major I was sitting in I was not excited about. I also wasn't very happy with my social life and the weather was terrible.

Now, I have changed my major to something I like and I am having fun doing the things I like. I had a crazy full weekend. I got home on thursday and finnished watching Pride and Prejudice. I then talked with my roommates and the guy one of my roommates is dating.

Saturday I got up and got ready to play racquetball with one of my friends. Then two of my roommates and my friend and I went to lunch at Applebee's. Then I went home and did some homework and took a shower. Then I got ready to go to the Icelandic festival. My roommate and I went to the icelandic festival which was so fun. We had a plate of traditional food like pickled lamb parts, flat bread, liver sausage, smoked lamb, and dried fish. It was mostly gross.


Then they came around and handed out fermented shark. I didn't try any but some of the kids in my icelandic class did. They said it didn't taste bad at first, but it had a terrible after taste. We were then given food that was much more normal. We had bread, potatoes, sweeten rutabaga, cabbage, lamb, and fish. It was really good.

They had a kids choir, some award presentation, and then group singing. They also had lots of displays and a raffle. My roommate and one of the other kids in my class won prizes. We had so much fun.

After the festival, I went with my roommate to the apartment of the guy she is dating. We watched dumb YouTube videos and then we started watching Nacho Libre. I am going to say right now that I think that movie is stupid, but I respect the fact that others may like it.

I also have been making new friends lately. Friends are fun! I can't be having a better time with life right now. YAY ME!

The Longest Time

So, this weekend was so fun. Today I woke up and played racquetball with my friend. Then my friend, my two roommates and I all went out to lunch. I then went home and got a ready for the Icelandic festival that I went to. It was lots of fun. My roommate and I then went over to these guy's apartment. I really like being social. It really make me feel good.

Anyway, Goodnight!

One Day More: Another Day, Another Desiny

Exciting news on the major front (wow, I didn't even mean to do that.) I decided on a major that I am really excited about. Drum roll please...

Applied Physics with an Acoustic emphasis.

Doesn't that sound like so much fun? I think it does, and I am really the only person that matters in this respect. I am so excited because I get to start really fun classes.

Anywhoo, I watched the end of Pride and Prejudice tonight, and I forgot how giddy Mr. Darcy makes me. Apparently I have totally messed up my chances of ever having a normal love life because I watch far too many romances. Oh, well! At least I enjoy the movies I watch.

I am really excited because tomorrow I am playing racquetball. It should be lots of fun.

Until I write again; Cheerio!
