Bitter much?!

If someone reads my blog, some may have noticed that I haven't written anything about the Santa Clauses like I promised.... That is because I haven't had the time, and because of pure bitterness. Not one Santa has put anything cool in my shoe! (that sounds strange for foreigners). I feel betrayed and a little sad, because I really wanted to get some nice little presents. It's not only the fact that they are not giving me anything, it's the fact that they are completely ignoring me! All the nice letters I have written for them, the cookies that I have baked just for them... Everything untouched. One could be a little hurt.
All this, and I even befriended them on Facebook!!! How rude!

Today I went to take the stupid Toefl exam, and boy does it suck!!! How on earth are they going to tell if my English is good when I get a whooping 60sec to speak about some lame topic (a topic I cannot recide here, because of the strange and strict laws of Toefl). no bitterness ...NONE WHAT SO EVER!!

Well, enough on the bitter side.
Even though the Santas have betrayed me and the Toefl was 4 hours of bullshit, the Christmas spirit has overtaken my soul. Everywhere I look there is a Christmas decoration and the classical "outofmywayIhavesomemoreChristmasshoppingtodo" look, shines upon every face. Is there anything more Christmas-y?! Nothing except maybe my mother trying to clean every single corner of the house, screaming at me for being untidy... "THERE WILL BE NO CHRISTMAS IF I CAN'T FINISH CLEANING!!!" Some one needs to tell her... that Christmas will come, although she hasn't cleaned yet. Sorry mom!

My job the last days before Christmas is to bathe my furry friends, Last year I had only one furry friend to bathe but now the number has increased by a whooping 4 legs, one tail and a head. About 50% my awesome math skills tell me. In addition to the fat, lazy, selfcentered and grumpy cat, I now have to bathe a overly happy, hyper but loyal dogette.

Well... nothing more now...
Untill we meet again!

Jólasveinarnir... Santa Claus....es...

Í tilefni þess að Jólasveinarnir byrja að koma í nótt ákvað ég að skella upp vísunni eftir Jóhannes frá Kötlum, um vini okkar... og vona að þeir LESI ÞESSA FÆRSLUog sjái sér fært að koma og gefa mér gott í skóinn. Ekki e-ð svona klúður eins og í fyrra.... (ég varð svolítið sár bara)
Ég ætla að setja vísu um hvern jólasvein á hverjum degi til Jóla!!! skemmtilegt ekki satt?!

Stekkjastaur ásamt smá "intro" LET US BEGIN!


Segja vil ég sögu
af sveinunum þeim,
sem brugðu sér hér forðum
á bæina heim.

Þeir uppi á fjöllum sáust,
-eins og margur veit,-
í langri halarófu
á leið niður í sveit.

Grýla var þeirra móðir
og gaf þeim tröllamjólk,
en pabbinn Leppalúði,
-það var leiðindafólk.

Þeir jólasveinar nefndust,
-um jólin birtust þeir,
og einn og einn þeir komu,
en aldrei tveir og tveir.

Þeir voru þrettán
þessir heiðursmenn,
sem ekki vildu ónáða
allir í senn

Að dyrunum þeir læddust
og drógu lokuna úr.
Og einna helst þeir leituðu
í eldhús og búr.

Lævísir á svipinn
þeir leyndust hér og þar,
til óknyttanna vísir,
ef enginn nærri var.

Og eins, þó einhver sæi,
var ekki hikað við
að hrekkja fólk - og trufla
þess heimilisfrið.

Stekkjastaur kom fyrstur,
stinnur eins og tré.
Hann laumaðist í fjárhúsin
og lék á bóndans fé.

Hann vildi sjúga ærnar,
-þá varð þeim ekki um sel,
því greyið hafði staurfætur,
-það gekk nú ekki vel.

Þar með er það komið á blað! douzo!

Sometimes..

I forget names and faces. People come up to me in the street and say: "Hi, how are darling, how is your mom and dad doing?! ohh how nice and your brother?, oh lovely, tell everyone I said hi!" I answer politely and say goodbye, not knowing who the hell it was. I don't know the face and for sure can't remember the name either. How on earth can I tell my parents Hi from the person?! "oh yes mom a met a woman who told me to say hi."
Mom: "oh and who was it?"
Me: Oh.. I have no idea, but she had, like hair... and two eyes and a mouth uh uh and and A NOSE!

Sometimes I know the face, and know that I should know the person, but the thing is I have no idea from where.
Working at a kindergarten, a new woman started working there one day. I knew I knew her from somewhere and asked my boss what her name was. She told me Nina, and I went on pondering in my little brain. Nina, Nina, I should know her.
I decided to walk over to her and introduce me to her, and check if she remembered me as well. So I go there and say: "oh Hi, you are new right?! My name is Elisabet"
Woman: " Yes, hello there Elisabet, I'm your AUNT Nina!!"

oooohhhh yeah, that's how I know her... she's my aunt... who babysat me A LOT and visits often... I KNEW I KNEW HER FROM SOMEWHERE!!!


Fact of the day: If you switch the letters "i" and "a" in the name Brian, you get the word Brain!!
this fact was sponsored by my brain....or Brian, who knows?

strangeness of People

Ok well, there I was, simply sitting with some people, enjoying being alive, when one of those people asks me what I was doing in live. Telling the truth I told him that I was studying Japanese and so on. He ~ohh-ed~ and ~aaahh-ed~ for a little and then told me (very proudly) that he had seen... bukkake performed... He smiled like an idiot for a while and then noticed the horrid look on my face. "What?!" he said, "don't you know what Bukkake is!?" I sat there and stared at him in great disbelive. "What ?!", I asked not so politely; "why are you telling me that? I surely do not want to know what you do to have fun."
He sat there staring at me truly confused and said: eeerm Bukkake... erm...a Japanese dance drama stuff... with lots of makeup and weird faces?!

Then I realized the poor fellow was talking about the
VERY innocent KABUKI play... not the horror of Bukkake ...

Oh the wonders of people messing up words....

Michael Jordan, Parminder Nagra and David Duchovny or what?

Well, here I was, trying to compose a blog, that is not boring, not going so well I thought, when my MSN Messenger started jumping (I think I should get payed for advertising them). Oh dear cod (yes cod) I thought, probably one of my amazing friends...well...it turned out that it was not any of my awesome friends, it was a guy from THE GAMBIA (not like there is another Gambia...oh no it's not THE Gambia, it's the...other one...) he told me how fun I was, and that he loved me...(I got all mussy eyed and all) but told him a very sad story about me having a hubby. (A total lie...but..you know) well... then he really wanted me to send him a photo of me, and my beautiful body...(how the hell does he know about my beautiful body?!) Well, not that stupid, I asked him to send me a photo of him first, and his...beautiful body. I waited and finally there was a photo! Looking forward to see Mr. Abdulla's body I clicked on the photo only to find out that Mr. Abdulla was infact MICHAEL JORDAN. Very confused I asked him if this was really him. He got a bit offended I think, and answered; "YES, WHO ELSE!?" and then it was my turn, panic(at the disco)ing I found a photo of me...or not...it was a photo of the ever so lovely, Parminder Nagra. Stunned by my (or in this case, Parminder's) beauty he asked for a photo of my very lovely hubby wubby. Dear cod, I thought for the second time today, who is fit as my hubby?! The answer was right in front of me, David Duchovny! (I was watching The X-Files, at that point). So I sent Mr. Abdulla (aka M. Jordan) from THE ONE AND ONLY GAMBIA a photo of Mr. Duchovny (aka my hubby). Mr. Abdulla (aka M. Jordan) found this very nice, and told me to ask my hubby, Mr. Duchovny, if it would be okey if I married him as well.( Mr. Abdulla aka Mr. Jordan of course). Sadly Mr. Duchovny (aka my hubby) didn't think that was a good idea, so Mr. Abdulla (aka M. Jordan) said goodbye with tears, and whised me and Mr. Duchovny a great live together.

Here is Mr. Abdulla, aka M. Jordan from THE GAMBIA
lovely

hello there!

Hello my pretties

Here I am, blogging on my brand new shiny blog! But what have I to say? Nothing at all! how sad is that? I'm new to the new blog...how do I start? Do you people know me, or don't you? who knows? Maybe the FBI, they know a lot.

So whats up with me? I'm sitting on my sofa very hungry but to lazy to do anything about it. Nothing new, (if you know me it might be new to you if you don't.)

well..since I have nothing to say I'm not gonna bother you with nothing, so I bid you farewell for now, promising that my next blog will be fun!
