Well hello there! Long time no see!
So I haven't bloged for ages (nothing new), and there is a reason for thar (like always). I thougt I'd take that reason and make it into a blogpost. So I'm going to tell you what I've been up to this last month.
1.-8. of July
I went on a Nordick youth camp that was held here in Iceland. It is an organisation called
NSU that threw this thing together and it is a place to meet new people your age, hear about their countries and cultures, have some fun and making friends and memories for life. We have a facebook acount called
Panorama Of Youth if you would like to go over there and take a look of some photos and videos and see what wee have been up to. I went on a conferance held by NSU in Denmark last December and I met alot of these people over there so it was nice to katch up. I am learning to become a leader and the conferance and youth camp is all a part of that program. So meeting people that share the same interess as you and tell you about their organisations and programs is so inspiering! I am also hopefully going on a leader camp in Denmark next October but more of thar later. During this week we also went sideseeing around Iceland and we saw the
Golden Circle which I've never seen upclose even thoug I live in Iceland... We also went on the Icelandic Olympics and did a flash-mop there and it was SO COOL! I've always wanted to do one and this was so uniqe and different, we were just like; "Hey, lets do a flash-mop" - "OK" and we didn't come up with any dance moves and we didn't have any music so we just sang "EVERYBODY DANCE NOW" at the top of our lungs danced around like a group of total idiots who should propobly be locked in somewhere! This week made me step out of my compfort zone so much and I gaind so much confidence during the camp!!! But then it was time to say our goodbuy's and head off to our homes and regular lifes.
9.-11. of July
So I went back home to my family and my summer job which is (or was, it is over now) work-school for kids aged 13 - 17 years old. So basecly I sat on my ass all summer long telling the kids to behave while thei sat on their behindes and picked up glass and painted the road. The pay was redicilous, I didn't earn a single penny this summer and my boss, or should I say bosses ( they were 3) where always telling me to do the opisite things and I didn't know who I should listen to! But it is over now.
11. of July - Now.
On the 11. of July my dad had an acedent. A tractor drove over his leg so he was picked up by an ambulance and driven to the next hospital which is three hours away from here. There he had to wait all night in a wheelchair on the halls of the hospital because there was no doctor who could do the surgery on him on shift. So around lunch time on the 12. of July he had the surgery and have to be in a cast and can't put his foot down until mid October. So I have been working on the farm along with my former summer job all this time. When my dad brakes his leg ti takes 5 people to fill in for him! My older brother, who we berly see, came and stayed with us for 10 days. He haven't done that in about 15 years so there is a upsite in theis situation.
Today
So I am currently forking my ass of like everybody else on the farm at the moment. The only reason I have time to write this blog is because I am sick and can't sleep. But yesterday I did something fun for my younger siblings. We went on a day off in the capital. We went bowling, it was my sisters first time and she is a genious a long with my brother who got strike in like every other throw! We also went for some icecream, did a bit of shoping and went to the movies and saw
Grown Ups 2 and if you haven't seen that movie you should do it right away! I haven't laughed so hard for the longest time, my sister kept sushing me 'cuz she was so embarresed of me!
What Is Coming Up
I have desided to go back to school this autunm after a little while so we see how that will go. I am also looking for a job because I am kind of a broke. And hopefully things will slow down so I can focus on my blog and upgrade my twitter acount and upload a youtube video and see how that will go. And also consintrade on my newyears revelutions.
Well I think that is it for now. I will write another post hopefully tomorow and that post will be monthly for now on. But until next time,
