Vomit??

Ah yes the wonders of working at a camp!

You get to deal with all sorts of crazyness!

About 20 minutes ago a girl vomited all over her sleeping bag ... yay

Then when the sleeping bag was removed from the top bunker ... all the vomit slid off it onto the floor...double yay!

So now I have washed the floor....thrown the sheet into the washing machine and Tinna is waiting at the tunnel with the girl and a pastor for the girls dad to come pick her up.

But it's all good! tomorrow I get to go home and CHILL until MONDAY! HOW good is life? haha

Much to my dismay it started to snow just a tiny teeny bit earlier tonight. Hopefully nothing will come off it haha!

But the lake is frozen really cool....only half of it is frozen...must take picture! haha :p

Anyways...I'm just waiting for everyone to come get their fruit....so this will be short!

English ... or íslenska?

Like I explained a few entries back... I blog in english because it's easier for me to gather my thoughts that way... besides there are english speaking people who read the blog as well and they don't understand Icelandic whereas most of the Icelandic speaking readers understand english. So to make it easier for myself (because it truly is all about me you see...haha) I blog in english so I don't have to bother with translations. Because there is nothing that annoys me more than translating... There, now that my selfishness has been establish let me continue. I'm alone in vatnaskógur. Or well Þórir is here...but technically I'm alone. It's not so bad, I'm not scared which is amazing...I thought I would be terrified staying here but it's been good! :D I don't really have much else to say at the moment...I'm just surfing the net....talking to Þóra Jenný... life is good!

Triple digits?

Yes children....the triple digits are no more...99 days until I return to my wonderful sun-shining-all-around-and-even-winter-is-not-really-winter country that goes by the name of Australia. However I am in Iceland and it's good. Sadly it's ICEland....which means...why yes it's cold over here! It's really freezing at camp today...I'm wearing a long-sleeved shirt with a hoodie and a big scarf and I'm still cold...I shall dress better later...add a fleece jumper to the combo! haha' But life isn't all bad.......Even though the snow is a bit too close for my taste...I can comfort myself with the fact that the snow will never be in my room! haha :p Anyways...I have an hour left of my break...I'm gonna go and catch some zzz's!

Dreaming...

So many thoughts running through my head...haven't got time to put them all down on paper...sad.

I have a picture in my head...

A girl sitting on a big comfy chair, fireplace...the fire is crackling, it's cold outside ... raining (just like now) the light is perfect, it's not too dark not too light. Hot coffee in a big cup on the table....also on the table, the perfect computer and the girl writing down her thoughts ...

In my head that picture is perfect....it's romantic (in a way) and sadly it's not true. Out of that picture there's one thing that's true though.... I have a mac, the perfect computer. ;)

Sadly I don't have coffee, no fire ... the weather sucks and it's not nice rain ... it's too light  and my chair is comfy but it's a desk chair...not a "big comfy chair" haha

Ohhh ... thoughts! Gotta love them.

So I guess the other true thing would be the girl writing down her thoughts.

So here's another for ya....

God knows what you think before you think it

Scary? Yes I would like to believe so....but comforting at the same time.
Let's not dwell on the bad thoughts...they all come into our head...sneaking through the back door but we have a choice whether we let them linger around for coffee or if we shove them head first out the front door.
Besides...there's too much good stuff to think about so why should we concentrate on the bad thoughts? Pointless ...

Anyways little children...more to come soon.

I need to let everything mull around in my head for a little longer...but it will come! ;)

blog?

I seem to be favouring the one word with a question mark behind it these days.

so my question is pretty much just to myself ...should I blog or not?

I think I'm getting back into the blog mood these days but I've decided that from now on I'm just gonna blog in english...it's easier and my thoughts come across way better in english than in Icelandic anyway :p

but I've been reading my Bible a lot lately...especially this weekend...and it's just been amazing...

And I was talking with a friend earlier tonight and I told her about this subject I'm writing my thoughts on and asked her to read over it ... she liked it but felt that I was perhaps starting in the wrong place. So we talked some more and I've put the writing on hold for now to gather my thoughts a little better ...

But I do want to put this out there ...

Psalm 119:9-16 says in the Message Bible (SO powerful!)

How can a young person live a clean life?
      By carefully reading the map of your Word.
   I'm single-minded in pursuit of you;
      don't let me miss the road signs you've posted.
   I've banked your promises in the vault of my heart
      so I won't sin myself bankrupt.
   Be blessed, God;
      train me in your ways of wise living.
   I'll transfer to my lips
      all the counsel that comes from your mouth;
   I delight far more in what you tell me about living
      than in gathering a pile of riches.
   I ponder every morsel of wisdom from you,
      I attentively watch how you've done it.
   I relish everything you've told me of life,
      I won't forget a word of it.

I really really love verse 9 and especially the way it's written in the NIV

"How can a young man keep his way pure?
       By living according to your word."

That is such a challenge to all of us. Being pure ... completely pure, it's hard to live a pure life in todays society where everyone expects you to do certain things and if you don't, you're weird.

Well... I prefer to be considered "weird" than going against God's word.
God's word is here for us to read, to guide us and for us to follow.
It's not always easy but it is possible. All things are possible with God on our side. Trying to live in our own strength however just brings disaster!

In other news I'm reading far too many books at the same time...

I'm reading;
The Heavenly Man by Brother Yun
When God writes your love story by Eric & Leslie Ludy
Mere Christianity by C.S. Lewis
The Bible... :)

And knowing myself ... since I have a stack of "secular" books ... i'll probably read one of those as well... yes children, it takes talent to read that many books at the same time and absorb stuff from all of them! :) hehe

As a final thing on this wonderful short entry of mine... I just wanna say that I really really really really really really really really really really REAAAAAAAAAALLY LOVE!!!!! God...

He's amazing... I couldn't do anything without Him. I would be a pile of rubbish in a corner somewhere ... He satisfies my every need, provides for everything...gosh and just ... he loves me for exactly who I am...and that is enough for me! :)

Gotta love God!

Anyways peoples...I'm out!

...

Ég er nú alveg handónýt í þessu blessaða bloggi mínu!

Og er eiginlega ekki neitt að frétta... ég fer örugglega bara að hætta þessu!

Ég er bara að vinna á fermingarnámskeiðum í vatnaskógi...og lífið gengur sinn vanagang...

Ég fer aftur til ástralíu 16 janúar og ég hlakka óendanlega mikið til!

Annars er ágætt að vera á klakanum... vantar samt kirkju... vantar góða lofgjörð... en vonandi breytist það!

anyways.... blah!

Ég mæli samt eindregið með disknum Continuum með John Mayer... besti diskur sem ég hef heyrt bara í nokkur ár held ég.... ég er ekki búin að hlusta á neitt annað í heila viku núna...stanslaust.....hann er æði!

Adios! (p.s. þetta er lélegasta færsla á jarðríki en mér er svo sem sama hehe)

Vatnaskógur

Já ég er komin í hóp þeirra sem kallast "skógar rottur" þar sem ég mun meira og minna búa í vatnaskógi í haust við vinnu á fermingarnámskeiðum.

Ég er nú bara nokkuð spennt fyrir því þar sem vatnaskógur er nottla eðal staður og fint bara að vera hér :)

Ég reikna nú ekki mikið með því að blogga en ákvað að láta að heyra aðeins í mér fyrst ég er nú í tölvunni og er eiginlega bara að láta mér leiðast.

Ég er semsagt að bíða eftir hinum gæslumanninum og við ætlum að klára að klippa stuttmynd. Ég þori ekki að gera of mikið því ég er svo hrædd um að klúðra einhverju og það er ekki alveg nógu gott haha!

Þannig að ég sit bara hér og spjalla við nokkra vini á msn......en allavega!

Núna er ég búin að vera á landinu í næstum 2 vikur og er það bara ágætt. Ég er ennþá að venjast þessu, er ekki búin að venjast verðinu á hlutum og mun örugglega bara ekki gera það, þar sem allt er bara fáránlega dýrt!

Ég vissi alveg að ísland væri dýrt en ég var búin að gleyma hversu virkilega dýrt það er!

Ég t.d. fór út í búð á mánudaginn...mánudagsmorgun þannig að bara 10-11 var opið og ég borgaði heilar 500kr fyrir tannbursta og tissue! Ég var ekki alveg að fíla það!

Og hvað er málið með að matvörubúðir opni ekki fyrr en einhvern tíma á bilinu 10-12?? hvaða rugl er það?!

Ég vil fá eins og úti þar sem matvöruverslunin opnar kl. 7 og lokar á miðnætti! Það væri eðal!

En allavega þetta er nóg í bili!
