going
So menningarhelgi, or culture weekend, with AFS was a complete blast. We got to meet the President, tour around Snæfellsnes, have some crazy good times out in the middle of nowhere, chill in downtown Reykjavík (it's becoming one of my favorite places in the world), meet a big load of foreigners, spend way too much time on a bus, and in general have a ton of fun. I don't have time to go into too much detail, but I should be able to have a bigger update next week. It was really great to see everyone again.
So today I went to Reykjavík for an art field trip. I just found out about it yesterday. I love that. We went to this gallery in Hafnarfjörður and then we went downtown for lunch. My friend Berglind and I went to Asia for the lunch buffet. It was okay, but a tad European not so much Asian. Then we had spare time to look around the shops and we bought some ice cream before heading to the Listasafn Íslands (the National Gallery of Iceland). I had already seen all of the exhibits. I went there with Ollie when he visited two weekends ago. But, it was still fun to look around again.
This weekend I'm going to Akureyri for the söngkeppni framhaldsskólanna, it's the song contest between all of the secondary schools in the country. I'm going up tomorrow by bus and am coming home Sunday. It's going to be so much fun! Akureyri is going to be full to the brim with framhaldsskóli nemendur (students) and a lot of other exchangers are going. I'm going to stay with Ollie for the weekend. The contest is Saturday and after it is a ball, which should be packed and tons of fun. I can't wait!!
