Fab Fifteen
I'm watching a re-run of Queer Eye for the Straight Guy right now. The Fab 5 are so awesome, but I cannot believe that they can renovate an entire house or apartment in one day. Less than one day, even, because they have to buy furniture, paint and all that, before. And there's only one fab who's in charge of this? Come on, get real. It took me about two days, put together, to paint my own room. Granted, I didn't spend the whole day painting, but still. You would think there are more fabs that take care of the house/apartment renovation. Peronally, I think there are more fabs behind the cameras. The Fab 15, more like.
Oh and by-the-by; Happy Easter! I hope you enjoyed your Easter eggs, I sure enjoyed mine! Eggs from Noi Sirius are the best!

I love my hair!
I went to a hair salon on Friday and had my hair dyed. Red. More red than last time, this time the hairdresser mixed two red dyes, instead of red and brown. I love my hair. See picture soon to be posted above.
So I'm going west (more like north-west, b.w.e.) tomorrow! Iso, here I come! I'm staying with my grandma and grandpa, Haddy and Joi. My dad is a fisherman and is out to sea now and will be for a month, maybe longer, which is why I'm not staying at his house.
I am so looking forward to going!!!
Even though I have to read one German book, ten more chapters in Egil's Saga, and learn ten chapters of Latin by heart, because there will be a Latin test about an hour and a half after I get back home on Wednesday the 30th of March.
Happy Easter!

Baaahhh!
Yeah, so you like the new look? Thanks. It was easy. I want to put a picture of THE Yellow Submarine as a banner, but I don't know how. Can anyone help?
Well, the clock is ticking - only 4 months till we move to Edinburgh, Scotland!!! We have started looking for a good secondary school (actually, they're all called high school there!) that will take me. James Gillespie's High School - JGHS - is supposed to be good, but JGHS's catchtment area is big, so it's not guaranteed that I'll get in there. Apparently, it depends on what subjects I want to take; some subjects are more popular than others, so when the classes in one school are full, the person has to go to another school in the neighborhood. Or neighbourhood - I guess I should start using the English way of spelling. I'm thinking they aren't to thrilled about the American way, over there in the UK.
I was looking at the JGHS homepage, and came across some poem that won a competition held by The International Women's Club Edinburgh. Sure, the message is good - be yourself and all that - but it is SO over-used! This poem is more like a list of mottos. Yes, good message, but it's been said so many times, and I think we've all got it by now.
Don't be a sheep and follow the herd. Got it.
The other entries to this competition must have sucked bad since this one won. Nothing personal, Nasreen, S.3.

I love my sister!
She is just so adorable and lovable!!!
I've been toying with the idea of changing the colors of my blog, to yellow, green and blue; Yellow Submarine-The Beatles vs. Yellow-Coldplay theme. I've actually already finished the new template, but I'm not going to use it right away. See if any of you will tell me if I should or shouldn't. And when I say you, I mean you, as in plural! Yes, don't you try and fool me! The counter says it all. Comment or perish, sweater-monkeys!

 I just can't help but brag. This is my report card for my report on Brynjolfur Sveinsson. For those who either can't see or don'r understand the language; at the bottom of the page it says that I got A+ for the report, A+ for the sources directory (?), and the final grade; 9.5!!!!!!! (out of 10). BragBragBragBragBragBrag!!!!!!!!! But really, I couldn't have done it without my wonderful mother. It can be such an advantage to have a mother who's a writer, especially when it comes to schoolwork like this. I heart you Mommy! | -: Trina

I love comments!
Come on people, why doesn't anyone except Julia Ara comment? Thank you very much by the way, Julia!
That's all for now. Just a funny quote:

I love sleep!
Yup. There is nothing better than waking up after a good night's sleep!
I am so proud of myself right now. I got the final grade for my presentation about Brynjolfur Sveinsson; 9.5!!!!!!!! Out of 10!!!!!!!!
But what makes me even prouder, is that I've grown a full centimeter since the last time I measured my height! Now I'm 166.5 cm, but a few months ago I was only 165.5 cm. I would like to be 170 cm, but I guess height isn't one of the things you can control about your body. Unless you are filthy rich and can afford plastic surgery to get your legs lenghtened or whatever. But I don't, so I'll just have to wait and pray. At the moment, I'm happy like an apple.
