Exam Crunch

So it´s coming down the end of the semester. Weird to think it is almost over and a lot of the people I have been living with and friends I have made will go back to their homes. I don´t know if I will ever see them again, but I do hope that I will.

So for the whole semester, all the work that actually counts for marks is concentrated into next week, but I don´t think it should be so bad. At least I am trying not to get too stressed out about it. It will all get done and it will all work out, "þetta réddast!"

ok, I finally found another (better?) photo page, so I will add that to my list. Flickr ended up not being good at all cause it couldn´t even hold many photos on it. It will take a while to get all my new photos on the site, so be patient, but I do have pictures from the Snæfellsness trip up, which is a collaboration of pictures from my travelling buddies Hannes, long-haired Christian, other Christian and Anna (just so you know I did not take the pictures, but there are two that are mine before my camera died).

It´s girls´ night part two tonight. Might go to the that, but first Becca and I are going to the art store to buy some finger-paint and have some fun and a break from school. I need more colour and excitement in my room. Thinking of buying some christmas lights from the flea market for my room. Then my room will be BRIGHT and HAPPY during the dark days of winter.

Seeing Sigur Rós this Sunday. Should be good. Long bus ride to a place I´ve never been but have the slightest of vague ideas of where it is. Fun times :)

I need lessons on improving my memory. Was looking on the internet for suggestions and it is the same as the techniques they try to teach you in school, but some reason you forget anyway. Needs to be a way of life. But my memory sometimes scares me. I forget certain things very easily, or some things just don´t occur to me and then the whole learning aspect needs a lot of memory work. Same with languages. I think I would be better at learning languages if I could just remember everything. I also wouldn´t seem to be so stupid sometimes if I could remember details. I was watching a movie last night called Centre Stage and took me a while to actually recognize characters, because some of them looked alike and others I didn´t remember where they came from, they seemed to just pop out of nowhere. It is kind of embarrassing if you have to ask someone constantly "who is that?". Being isolated and on my own has really helped to bring light to my limitations and perhaps weaknesses, but still haven´t found my strengths... I have to have them, just not sure what they are yet.
