Long overdue

Well, I think it´s not overstated in the headline but I promised a blog last week but this past week has been crazy. I´ve been working 12-13 hour shifts, for the reason that at Domino´s ( my work) was "Megaweek" ( Megavika) and they have these weeks only a few times a year where pizza´s and other side dishes are at bargain prize ( compared to Icelandic standards, even at these Mega weeks the prize compared to for example the U.S. real is still expensive )


However to summerise the weekend trip to London, it was awesome, the hotel was good, weather was alright and the concert, only one word can describe it : Unbelievable ! ! !

It was the last concert of their tour, and for that reason they decided to go nuts. Played songs they had not played in years, and it felt like a jam session where they just did their thing, and still played their hits and I enjoyed every minute of it. And spending some time with my family was nice (although we live in different countries and continents, we always find time to meet somewhere in the world and have some fun).

This week I´m only working 2 short days, so I can sort out my living arrangement in Kansas and get my student visa. Also a lot of bowling this week, doesn´t help that the conditions are terrible. Robert Anderson, a 2 time world champion and multi member of the Swedish national team is coming to Iceland as the "official" trainer of the Icelandic National teams ( mens, womans, youth and junior teams) so my next weekend is dedicated to him and some serious bowling( which means a lot of "fun") especially bowling in this crappy center!

But I´m not gonna make this any longer than I have to , but I will post more blogs soon.

I´m back baby yeah

Well the trip to London was great, and couldn´t have gone better. Even though I was crippled most of the trip it was a success ...

Tomorrow I´m going to post everything from the trip and put some awesome photos I took from the concert!

Ready, willing and disabled...

You might ask, ready and willing to do what exactly ?

Well I was ready to go to England, willing to go to a Foo Fighters concert. So where does the disabled part fit in?

While finishing my last delivery of an already to long shift, I was walking down a steep hill when I misplaced my foot and stepped wrong down on the ground which resulted in me pulling a muscle in my foot. And I´m walking around on a crutch!

Well it has it´s ups and downs, for example of a down is that my foot hurts like hell, while the upside I got an upgrade on the flight from Keflavík to London because I was on the crutch, and that was sweet.

However, I´m in merry old England, and the main objective in this trip is to go to a Foo Fighters concert and they are 2 days from now, so all we can do in the meantime is enjoy London.

well my minds kinda blanc as it is, so i´ll be back with more news and thoughts

peace out

A day without sunshine is like, you know, night

Well today started great, I slept in and woke up around one ish and just felt like it was going to be a great day, especially were as I didn´t have to work tonight.

So my main objective today was to make a phone call to get the apartment lease confirmed. And the call couldn´t have gone better, I spoke to this very nice person. although she had one of the shadiest name I´ve ever come a cross. Her name is Ashley Lies!!!


Well it turned out that the apartment I saw online, 500 square ft. studio apartment with a swimming pool and tennis court on the estate, it was available and the last one. So after a little chat with Ashley Lies ( haha still funny) then she told me I only needed to send an application and a deposit and the apartment would be mine.

I immediately called my father with the good news and also told most of my friends that I just leased my first apartment. And nothing but smiles from that point, so I went and cleaned the apartment, for the reason that my mother is coming back from China and Russia, so I got the apartment in to tip top shape ( or like almost clean)

After a little light cleaning to some very loud music , it was time to hit the bowling alley. After last weeks league cancellation, I was excited to finally get to play some bowling. Well as I got to the alley I found out it wasen´t league night, instead we had a league cup night ( means played in doubles , I only played one game) so it sucked so big time! When I got home Maggi and Arna were gonna come over and we were gonna watch Charlie and the chocolate factory ( for some school project they had) when really it was an excuse for me to have a cold one.

And then the blow of the week hit me as soon as I checked my e-mail, I received an e-mail from Joan Petersen, a Wichita State University employee and it was regarding my question on housing situation( my apartment) and she gave me the "great" news that everyone attending WSU ( Wichita State University) under the age of 21 have to live on campus unless they´re married!

So everything I looked forward to, living by myself, the freedom and privacy was just flushed down the toilet. Of course unless i age 2 years or get married it wouldn´t be a problem, but I find this very stupid. Well I understand it partly, but to make it a rule that they have to live on campus is absurd!

Well I´m gonna leave it at that ... for now, so I´m off and the quote of today is:

STUPID = Smart Talented Unique Person In Demand

Gives the term "getting out the wrong side of the bed " a whole new meaning!!!

Well it all started with a phone call from my dad at 10 a.m. this morning, and at that point I figured out that I overslept a doctors appointment and that I was 5 minutes late for work. And as I stepped out of the bed my, I managed to step on my belt buckle and by doing that I pierced the bottom of my heal, which I thought was very thick but as it started bleeding I noticed that it´s not that thick.

And at this point I´ve got my sweats and my coat on and I´m practically running out the door, so I get in the car and rush to work. So I finally get to work and the supervisor that was working was Polish, so when I got in he said something, but I didn´t really understand him. I changed in to work clothes and was about to clock in when the other employee walks in and says " what are you doing here" and I said that I´m working from 10- rush ( usually to 8 or 9 depends on how busy we are) and he told me to look at the shift schedule, so I did and it said that i was suppose to work from 6 p.m. to 1 o´clock in the morning. So after all the trouble of getting up and hurting myself, and of course the rush of going to work.

So if I make it through the day I´ll blog more later!!!

p.o.

Boring, boring and so much more boring!!!

If you got the idea that I´m bored, well then you are correct.

With this weeks league canceled, time just floated around, like everyone drifted to their destinations. If I´m not working, skipping on gym sessions or bowling those 2 days a week, I´m just laying on my ass doing absolutely nothing,

Although on next Friday I´m leaving for London, merry old England. And the purpose for this trip? You might ask, well both my sisters are coming, one from Austria and the other one from Denmark, and my dad is coming from Spain. So basically my mother and myself are flying from Iceland, but we all meet up at the Sanderson hotel in London ( which is b.t.w. the hippest hotel in town) and on Sunday a week from today we´re going to see a little band called Foo Fighters play live in the O2 arena, and the seats we got, well let´s just leave it at their good!


And since the 1st. of November, I´ve been completely home alone so there has been some extreme cooking going on, ( mostly dominos, but also subway and Chinese takeout ). It´s been nice having some peace and quiet for myself, nobody to boss me around or "ask" me to do stuff,


Well I´m going to stop right now , I´m kinda beat so I´m going to sleep but with these words in mind,

Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you get!

peace out

Creating a blog

Well... It´s time for my first blog on this site. The reason for creating this blog is that I´m moving to America, and so the world can keep up with what I´m doing, going through and what I´m not doing

But right now, and until I go to Kansas in January i´m working at Dominoz Pizza. Not the best place to work at or the best payed job, but a job is a job. And I just wanna get some money before I move to America.

Some of my other activities include bowling practices 2-3 times a week in a bowling center so bad that you kinda feel depressed every time you go in and with such incompetent employees with an IQ lower than 95 and the approaches worn out and the lanes wrecked, the machines scratch your balls. Just basically every time you go out of the center you feel like you been taken advantage of ( almost mind raped )

One of my favorite hobbies in lying in bed with the computer or watching the same movies.

But probably spent most of my free time hanging out with Maggi and Arna ( b.t.w. owe me some dough !!! )

but I´m gonna leave it at there ....

so until next time ...
