Getting Hungary
Right now I'm waiting for confirmation of the time when my plane leaves for Hungary, Budapest to be precise. I was called in the morning and informed that the plane wouldn't go at 13:10 but at least 2 hours later. So I found time to blog for the first time in ages. Over the past few weeks not much has happened in my life. As usual it's a 'TV novella' with girls but that's just the way it is. The more important parts have been happening in the society...
Ok quick lesson in Icelandic politics. in 1983 this fella' Davíð Oddsson was elected the city mayor where he stayed until 1991 when he was elected prime minister. Two weeks ago he stopped that and became the foreign affairs minister as a part of a deal within the government. Ok, for me and most Icelanders born later than 1980 this is like being Cuban and Fidel Castro would become I don't minister of agriculture or something. One thought do you think the minister of foreign affairs in Cuba has much to do... discuss. This is just like twilight zone ... some things just don't change. Mean while one can see very obviously that this guys party is getting all their guys into the right positions before they leave office, because they'll defiantly lose next elections! Anyways
I'm off to Hungary in 4 hours to meet my cousin who is studying medicine in a city called Debrecen and we will get drunk together their for few days. The first day (later today) we are going with Lily (a girl from Hungary which most of us met in BCN) to a party which I think will be fairly enjoyable. Since this delay is changing my plans (not to much though) I think I'm going to demand a top of the line hotel in BP though I don't really need it.
One thing I'm very proud of being doing.... Next fall I'll graduate and the most of group will go to Thailand for a graduation trip (Svana went to Croatia:(.) For fund raising we are doing all sorts of stuff selling school sweaters, toilet paper, throwing parties for the student association etc. But I got one idea myself... We are making a deal with the Football Association about become sort of cheer leaders and sing like we've been paid to do it... and we are!!! We pay a fairly low price for the tickets, get companies to support us and sing like the mofo's that we are. And I get a bunch of money for it... other aswell but I get the most since it's my idea.
Anyways, off to Hungary
