Cum in the elevador

Úlli: Me
Júlli: My friend from school
Ragga: Júllis girlfriend

Júlli: Úlli did somebody cum in the elevador
Úlli: What Where?
Júlli: Yes in the bar on Hotel Iceland on friday.
Úlli: Really who? Or should I say what?
Júlli: Yeah Ragga told me you told her!?!?

Ok so on friday we went to a so called uncertainty trip which is just a trip where you get drunk but you dont know where, before hand. So we waited in some bus for half an hour longer than we should have and then took a tourist trip around the city (interesting... NO). After that 45 minute trip with beer in our hand we went to play bowling it wasnt that great I got a 100 and the winner got something like 175 but he used to be in the national team. Afterwards we didnt want to go directly to the party at Hotel Iceland so we went one of my mates garage which has six darts (things), one pool table, bar and everything is decoraded in newspaper articles my mates father in law. He played for KR their first European cup game against Liverpool (one of Englands biggest football team and Adams favorite(beside that they suck)) but they where also playing their first game so its pretty historical. Then we chatted about one night stands but I have become a little famous coz one of my Icelandic blogs ended on Icelands second most popular webside. I got hundreds and thousands of visits that day:( Anyway, one of Daði´s friends brought another guy who wasnt the brightest nor the funnest but ok. That guy (I dont know his name but we call him Office One coz' he works there) said that one night stands were like co-masturbation... you know, no love and that shit. Ok so we went to this school party at Hotel Iceland where some stuff happend among others we starded playing with some plastic fruits and throwing them at each other, one guy took it a little bit too seriously and threw it... straight at my eye, I thought I would get a black eye!!!

Anyway this office one fella' was hitting on everything that moved and finally he started hitting on Ragga but since she had gotten tired of this fella she was thinking about going somewhere with him where they would get cought and he would be thrown out. (ok a little time-out in this place it is in the cellar but on the other floors there is this hotel and you can take elevadors up). We warned her and I told her this masturbation BS but she had masterplan obviously. So somehow the day after when she got sober she mixed our conversation up and all of sudden somebody did cum in the elevador. That has been the joke of the week among my friends. I have a feeling that this story doesnt translate well... anyway.

While writing this I have been uploading some pictures from Iceland which I took most of today... from a moving car. You can sometimes see my face in the car mirror. I named some of the photos so they will be understandable, but some wont even be understandable with a text. Anyway enjoy. Also I did put two pictures of my hair in the back.

Im looking for top 250 reasons not to go to Illinois so if you have any ideas send me a mail at ingiulfar@ru.is or contact me at msn ingiulfar@hotmail.com

Why Illinois?

For those of you who are wondering why Bill Gates would stop at Illinois before traveling on to Carnegie-Mellon, MIT, Cornell, and Harvard, here are a few reasons why he came here (and why you should come here too):

-Microsoft hires more employees from Illinois than from any other university
-Tim French goes to school at Illinois
-Illinois is a fun word to pronounce
-orange and blue are great school colors (if you're not colorblind)
-did I mention that Tim French goes to Illinois?
-there is a low Icelandic population, so moms are safe from young men here
-bowl cuts are available here
-mullets are NOT available here (sorry Adam and Steffen)

Alright, so while the first reason is probably the only reason Bill Gates came here, you should all consider a visit to the Illinois prairie. I have spoken my piece.

Bill Gates' Visit

Billy Boy Gates stopped by my uni last night for a talk to computer science and engineering majors. Out of the 1400 seats, the business college got only 18 seats. That's a load of crap in my opinion. But it was kinda cool to have the world's richest man a block away. One of my friends worked the event, so I'll have to get all the dirt on Bill and disseminate it around the globe. Y'all can be my international lackeys in this diabolical scheme. Ahh, too early to be doing homework already....so tired...must sleep.

Tim's Pics

I put my pics up on Walker's site....enjoy.

One of those nights

Well, tonight is just one of those nights where I'm really missing Barcelona and all of my friends. I suppose any place begins to feel like home after a while, but I was blessed with some of the greatest friends anyone could ask for to share a trip with. Sorry to wax all emotional on you guys, but I feel so far removed from not only Barcelona, but from Europe in general and all you guys. I heard from Vegard, and he's loving it in the land of Yao Ming. He reads the blog whenever Ulli sends it his way. Hope to see more new faces on here soon. Sorry I couldn't think of anything clever to say tonight...first time for everything.

Missin everyone,
Tim

Last nite

Ok my week has been pretty good, thanks for asking, but yet very interesting in a strange way.

We didnt have to many projects this week so after our markstrat session on thursday we went to watch the elections in Iceland University, which realy do suck but they have cheap beer :) The reason why they suck is that they have all the same goals its almost like the same party, historically one is a right wing party and the other one left so in the right one those who want to become right wing poltitians go there and others on the other side. My best friend when I was nine was the right wing candidate so I supported them a little more but honestly didnt give fuck. I only ment to drink a couple of beers but ended up going to this party and at around 5 in the morning me and an old friend went to share a cap. When we came to my place the friend came with me so I thought he wanted stay over so I went to pick up a sleeping bag and such, but when we came inside he started hitting on me seriously which I didnt like. The problem ofcourse is that my friend is a he... like Manolo said "my ass is a one way street".

I didnt show up for school on Friday because of hangover but managed to do one thing that day, play football, I sucked big time but ce la vie.

On Saturday I went to my schools football competition where made only one draw in three matches but it was fun. Later that night I went to a party at one of my teammates and we all got drunk (we were like 15 of us). It was a load of fun especially the drinking game which I recorded and may even send all of ya copy, pretty funny. Afterward we went downtown and in the end I managed to find a place to stay for the night, the only thing I had to do is help the girl with some "workout" that same night:) A good deal.

I came home at 13 the day after and watch 3 football matches during that day. The most enjoyable was Barcelona-Atletico which Barca won 3-1:) We are now in a champion league position:)

I think this is it for now but I did sign Manolo up after meeting him on MSN (Kat and Seems hrm...hrm..) but he hasnt accepted yet.

Well later,
Úlli

Been a while (I sense a recurring theme)

Good to hear from Kat...apparently Texas didn't change much while you were gone. Hopefully we will be sending George W. back to your great state shortly...John Kerry's been my boy from the get-go. But I'd best move on before I start a political feud on this blog. Started work last week at a bank (following in Ulli's footsteps). I, however, don't clean toilets and shoot intruders. I get to stand behind the counter, pretend like I know what I'm doing, and give people ridiculous sums of cash. Guy the other day wanted $8000, and then some woman came in wanting $3. We serve all sorts, I guess. This lady is convinced the police have her entire home bugged. I survived Valentine's Day with minimal damage...some flowers, dinner at my girlfriend's hall, a trip to Blockbuster to rent The Hours. Cheap evening all in all. Wrote in to the school paper about my trip home in October for this Stupid or Cupid contest and won second prize in the Cupid category. I think if I had included the reason for the trip I could've won both Stupid and Cupid prizes. Was planning a trip to BCN in March, but me boss told me to dream on. The whole reason I got the job was to pay for the trip to BCN, and now it's the job that's keeping me from going. Good to see that Ulli has taken to posting warm fuzzy forwards on the blog now. Guess he got tired of the penguin game. Well, off to do homework now...don't remember doing much of that last semester. Bye kids.

Someone sent me this please read

The following scene took place on a BA flight between Johannesburg and
London.

A white woman, about 50 years old, was seated next to a black man.
Obviously disturbed by this, she called the air Hostess. "Madam, what is the matter"?, the hostess asked.
"You obviously do not see it then"?, she responded. "You placed me next to a black man. I do not agree to sit next to someone from such a repugnant group.
Give me an alternative seat".

"Be calm please", the hostess replied. "Almost all the places on this flight are taken. I will go to see if another place is available".

The Hostess went away and then came back a few minutes later. "Madam, just as I thought, there are no other available seats in the economy class. I spoke to the captain and he informed me that there is also no seat in the business class. All the same, we still have one place in the first class".


Before the woman could say anything, the hostess continued. "It is not usual for our company to permit someone from the economy class to sit in the first class However, given the circumstances, the captain feels that it would be scandalous to make someone sit next to someone sooooo disgusting".

She turned to the black guy, and said. "Therefore, Sir, if you would like to, please take your hand luggage because a seat awaits you in the first
class".

At the moment, the other passengers who were shocked by what they had just witnessed stood up and applauded.

This is a true story which is not usually told. If you are against racism, please send this message to all your friends, please do not delete it
without sending it to at least one person.

Mullet

First of all I realy like to say Im sorry to Adam, you realy do have bad haircut but I had no rights to critisice it and well its your choice, ok?

Second, I went on Friday to get a haircut the thing was that I hadnt gone to do so since BCN and I did need one. Coz' it was that day all the places were busy exept for this one fancy place. So I went there and asked to, you know, get it short on the sides, a little in the back and some on the top, and get color as I had in Spain and thats it. Well so me and the, very beautiful, hairdresser had some rather "emparesing" talk until I started feeling like she was giving me mullet so I said, you know I don't like the mullets. She replies that there were good and bad ones, and then we had a lifely conversation about bad haircuts in Iberia (Spain & Portugal) as we all sure have gotten to know. Well when she finished I thought I had a little pony tale but I wasnt that worried, just thought it was funny, she told me that on the back of my head it was most (hair) in the center (of the back of my head). Well no trouble, just something fancy...

ITS A MULLET, seriously I have been checking it out and its a fact!!! I have mullet. Ok, so I should just take some scissors and cut it myself, right? No, wrong coz' even though its horrable I have never in my life been so popular with the girls. I told you about my luck, on Friday and on Saturday my friend asked me to teach him how to hussle (like Im the master) and coz' he's the worst I went with him to help a little. We decided to start in this bar, where his friends go, but they weren't there, we just sat down and he had a little (actually alot) to drink and we chatted. Then this girl points me over (and she was cute, though her friend wasnt) I offcourse went. Well she told me that I was her "prince of dreams" and thats how she would like her husband (her actual words there and then). I thought I was getting lucky so I asked her how old she was, what she did and so on. Ok Tim don't laugh too hard, she was a 27 year old dentist assistant with husband and two kids, thats where I put the line. Then she and her friend realy liked to armwrestle me!!! Whats up with that???

There are more stories to this night, but I havnt got time to writ'em.

Later,
Úlli

Weekend update

Hey i think its time for my weeks update which has been fairly busy.

On Saturday my parents went to Italy to ski, I was hoping for a wild week and even though I wasnt home alone I did think that I would have a good time since I the oldest and can beat my siblings up if I want the remote control. But no the teachers decided to ask us for 7 projects in the same week and 4 of those in the same subject! We were very anoyed by one of those coz' we had to ask 30 people what were the first three things that came to mind when some brand was mentioned. We figured this had little if anything to do with our marketing studies but the teacher is making her on research on that subject so it was very handy to get us to do all the hard work. Anyway I stayed in the school all day for that week and only once I came home to eat, so Im just glad its over.

I was pretty certain I would have to go out on friday coz' just to have some good time this week so I signed up for the sience trip on Friday. In this one we went to Iceland Express which is similar to Ryanair but only flies from Iceland to Denmark and England. They had a lecture on the company for half an hour maybe more and gave free beer while talking, usually they give free bear during the lecture and then for an hour afterwards but they didnt have enough so we had to start buying right after which sucked. I once again had to play the drunk Icelander and got completely out of hand, hit on a exchange student (you have to be friendly) and then went home with some girl which was a huge waste of money. the worst sex ever and cap expenses were in total something like 50 $. Today I went to play football, it was surely a hangover ball coz' I didnt have the strength to run after anything so i just stayed in goal and passed the ball up the field.

My dad just bought the sport channel for one month (not the actual channell) so Ive watch some football on tv, on Wednesday I watched Man City against Tottenham coz' Icelands national keeper just signed for the prior and played the match. It was a great match coz' Tottenham were 3-0 nil up at halftime and at halftime one City player got redcarded. So there wasnt much hope, but the match ended 4-3 and Arni Gautur had an outstanding match, Schmeichel said he had the save of the season so he did pretty well.

Thats it for now.

Later,
Úlli

p.s.
I just signed up Kat so I hope she will start bloging soon.

I'm back

I know it's been a while since I've posted anything, so I thought I'd better get something up lest you guys think Illinois had slid off the face of the earth. Been busy with school and other activities here, trying to stay caught up, but I've done my fair share of going out. However, it's not quite as carefree as Barcelona, where I really had no responsibilities and no one to answer to. Murphy's Pub isn't quite the same as a real Irish pub, but it's still good to be at the pubs at home. Went to this bar last night that usually only 1st years frequent. We used to be big fans, but the massive urine lake on the floor eventually drove us away. But last night we ventured back, and I must say that Adam, Ulli, and Walker would've thoroughly enjoyed it. The number of fit girls in the crowd was unreal....quite enough to go around with you boys. The evening ended with a gaggle of girls dancing on the bar and two girls making out with each other hardcore on the bar. I got in trouble with the gf for looking, but such is life. Just got a job actually...like Ulli, I will be a bank employee, but as a teller. Can't help but feel somewhat like Banks in Mary Poppins.

Walker, I totally know what you mean about the strangeness of running into people. Since I've been back I've run into so many people I was in Ireland or Spain with. Chilled at the bar with Nim a bit the other night--cracked a few Jewish jokes. I now give Nate rides to school in the morning since he lives across the courtyard. Just kinda take it all with a grain of salt. Adam, I hope you survive the ravages of the Barcelona night life. I'm just trying to survive the wicked snow and ice that won't stop coming. Take care, all.

Super Bowl Sunday and the week before

People its my week update and it(the week) hasnt been very interesting. One thought to begin with, I just watched Simple Life with Paris Hilton and I just have to ask in anyone realy amazed that people around the world think that Americans are stupid. For legal reasons I would like to point out that I dont think that Americans are stupid I just understand why one would think so. Anyway Paris Hilton is the daughter of one of the ritchest guys living and one would guess that he could afford decent education apperantly not. Miss Hilton didnt know what a well was or what you did do with it. She didnt have a clue what wal-mart was, not even it was a mall or a store.

About my week, I have been sick most of it and just spent my time watching downloaded movies (loved Bloody Sunday (shame in Brits) and Average Joe) and slept, not very interesting. On Friday I reconed that I was regaining my health so i went to a science trip with my school to IMG Gallup whitch wasnt the best one coz' the guy who was introducing the company did talk for over an hour and in the end over half the people had left, including me. The Students then chatted for something like an hour while drinking free beer (the only reason we came). Afterwards we went to, I guess, the hottest bar in the city Herfisbarinn (could be translated as the Local). Where we got more free beer and everybody were on track to get wasted (Icelandic style;). Me and Svana did have serious chat about Adams hair, not realy but we talked quite a bit about our experience and other stuff then everybody went to the dancefloor. About an hour later (around 2-3) I called one of my friend, who had gone to see other friends, but he was home, another friend was barely alive, for to much alcahol, since he was with his girlfriend I decided to leave and went to other bars but with little success, so I called a friend who had offered to pick me up we went to eat some drunk food which is so much better than BCN. Tim when you come here Ill introduce you to BSI´s pizzasandwich, just classic.

The morning after me parents left for Italy where they are on a skiing trip but I still spent most of my time watching football and didnt realy do anything thing until 1:30 in the morning when I went to pick up my drunk friend and then another and finally somegirls asked me if I could drive them home which I did. At 5 I came home and went to sleep and just woke up at 13 to see "boltinn með Guðna Bergs" which is the best program in Iceland and its about football:) after that I watched Chelsea win Blackburn in fun game and went to work. When I came I just felt sick and have had a headace al the shift, since Im off in like 20 minutes and i think I just might watch Super Bowl not that I like anythin' about it just dont think Ill fall a sleep.

Next week will be difficult coz' we've got 7 projects to hand in, that most definatly means that Ill have to get drunk on Friday but man's got to do what man's got to do.
