heldumst í hendur

I know I talk about Icelandic all the time and very few people understand my obsession, but this weekend I had an Icelandic overdose and I am over the moon about Iceland and Icelandic. This weekend i went to the Sigur Rós concert. I was standing there with my ex-roommate who takes Icelandic with me and our former Icelandic teacher and we listened to these songs that are Iceland.

To be honest, I could write and write about the concert and i will never be able to express the joy that filled my soul as i sat there and listened to this music that has changed my life. Just watch Heima and know that I felt like i was one of the people in that movie.

One thing that did come of it was i know that I want my children to speak icelandic. It would be easier if i married someone who was Icelandic or spoke Icelandic, but I won't be that picky. I really want my children to call my parents amma and afi and to say things in Icelandic, so, they will. The End.

Oh, but becuse I want my children to speak icelandic, my friends have a joke about me wanting lots of Icelandic Babies. Who doesn't?

You should go on a mission to Iceland! Maybe it's your destiny. Maybe your eternal companion is there or something O_o

I'm risking to come over as a creepy stalker, but I participated in the Walmart-Olympics with you.

And yes, Icelandic is rad. Sigur Ros is rad, and so was their concert.

More power to you!
