I had a chat with Helene and Torhild yesterday about our life here in Vancouver. We've only been here a little over a month but already we have homes, routines and a day-to-day life like we had back home. It's actually quite amazing how fast you settle in. Too some degree this is a good thing. It means that I'm not spending an obscene amount of money like I'm on holiday. Shopping is also kind of boring when you have a broken leg. Yet I have managed to buy shoes while having a broken leg, which supports my theory of me being the Pete Doherty of shopping... But the downside of settling in so fast is that you kind of forget that you're in a new city. This is something I think team 12 should remind itself more of. Maybe we're spending way too much time on our projects and forgetting that fact that we can learn so much from the city itself. Just a thought.

Today is my wonderful mothers, Guðrún Júlíusdóttir, birthday. Ég elska þig, mamma mín og til hamingju enn og aftur með daginn!

Here is a video some of my classmates made about our homebase. I like it. I like it a lot. (It know the youtube window looks weird on my blog, just blends in with the background. The reason for this is a mistery to me. Computer savvy peeps can leave a comment with their helpful expertise...)
