Cheater
I jumpstarted. I just finished wiping off one of the bookcases (in which I don't actually keep books, as the other one is much bigger), and am soon gonna wipe off the desk and nightstand. I'll leave the big bookcase till later.
I am such a cleaning slutttttttttt. | -: Trina

I am actually looking forward to my cleaning week, which starts tomorrow. Why am I so weird? Because I will then also clean my own room. And believe you me, it requires a bit of cleaning. | -: Trina

Talk
I just caught myself talking to myself. Out loud. In English.
That's a good thing, right?

Til fólksins á mölinni
Í dag blogga ég á hinu ástkæra ylhýra, af gefnu tilefni. Nei, ekki vegna þess að dagur íslenskrar tungu var seinastliðinn föstudag - á afmæli Björgvins stjúpföður míns, bæðevei (til hamingju!). Þetta er auglýsing! Vil ég biðja alla þá Íslendinga (sem og útlendinga sem skilja íslensku sem kynnu að heimsækja þessa síðu mína, sem ég tel þó ólíklegt) sem búsettir eru á mölinni að taka vel eftir.
Næstkomandi sunnudag, 25. nóvember, og þriðjudaginn 27. nóvember, munu Háskólakórinn og Ungfónía halda saman tónleika í Langholtskirkju og byrja þeir klukkan 20:00 að staðartíma bæði kvöld. Flutt verður stórfenglegt kórverk eftir Ludwig van Beethoven heitinn, sem á tónlistarmáli nefnist Messa í C-dúr, Op. 86. Á mannamáli kallast þetta einfaldlega Snilld, eða Fegurð skilgreind í formi tónlistar. Ég get lofað því að einhverjir (undirrituð meðtalin) munu finna fyrir gæsahúð! Einsöngvararnir eru upprennandi stórstjörnur og heita: Rannveig Káradóttir, sópran Sibylle Köll, alt Hlöðver Sigurðsson, tenór Valdimar Hilmarsson, bassi.
Miðaverð í forsölu er 500kr fyrir nema og 1000kr fyrir aðra, en við dyrnar kostar 1000kr fyrir nema og 1500kr fyrir aðra. Miða í forsölu er hægt að nálgast hjá fólki úr Ungfóníunni og kórmeðlimum - mér það er að segja. Ég hvet alla sem eiga rauðan eða fjólubláan seðil í veskinu og þykir gott að hlusta á fallega tónlist (eða jafnvel ekki; þetta verk gæti snert hvaða sál sem er!) til að annaðhvort hafa samband við mig (eða ef þið þekkið e-n annan í kórnum eða Ungfóníunni) hið fyrsta, nú eða bara mæta í Langholtskirkju á sunnudaginn/þriðjudaginn næsta klukkan átta eftir hádegi.
Að því er ég best veit hefur þetta verk einungis verið flutt tvisvar sinnum á Íslandi áður, svo að þetta er án efa svona "once in a lifetime" upplifun. Ef ég væri ekki í kórnum sjálf, þá myndi ég sko mæta. Er búin að vera að hlusta á þetta á iPodinum og/eða í tölvunni endalaust seinustu dagana og fæ alls ekkert leið á því! Ekkert nema gæsahúð og spenning fyrir því að syngja þetta fyrir fullri kirkju (að sjálfsögðu verðið þið að hjálpa til við að fyllla kirkjuna!). Svaka kikk, er ég viss um. Það er alltaf æði að syngja á kórtónleikum, en ég efast ekki um að þetta verði enn betra. Rosalega erfitt verk, en það er óviðjafnanleg tilfinning að ná því fullkomlega! Og ekki er verra að hafa vitni :D | -: Trina

Hilton, Richie, Lohan, Spears etc
This has bothered me for a while; I don't even know for how long. Ever since I started hearing of young stars becoming party animals that would make Keith Richards look like an angel, I've wondered. Why do they drink and drive? I mean, I don't blame them for wanting to have fun once in a while... though once in a while appears to mean "once a day" for some of them. But why drink and drive? I mean, don't they all have their own personal chauffeurs? Or at LEAST enough money for a taxi.

Spare time
Oh I remember when I had enough of it to allow myself to read a book for MYSELF once in a while. There's this one recently published book by Meg Cabot that I've seen at Mál & menning, and I wanna buy, but I'm afraid if I do I might just read it right away, instead of my textbooks... Yes I remember when I had so much spare time that I had no idea what to do with it. Now I have so little that I have become an expert in "creating" spare time, i.e. procrastinating! (Though of COURSE that does not prevent me from handing in assignments on time etc. I may or may not have neglected reading a few loooong chapters for British Culture and History, and a couple of 20-page long boooooring and useless articles for the compulsory philosophy course I HAVE to take. Possibly the most pointless and boring course of all time.) I think I'm gonna go to Mál & menning tomorrow and buy that book and keep it where I can always see it, to remind myself of every day's goal: do a lot of homework, in order to pass the upcoming exams, so I can READ this book!!! :D
