Wow... Time flies...

Yesterday it was five years since i came to Iceland. I will write the details bout my thoughts on this, shortly. For now i will just say thanks for putting up with me and hopefully we can make it last for many more years to come.

Mobil blog-test

Someone made a very explicit snow-art installation in the spirit of Calvin. I smiled...... (Its about 260 cm tall....!!)

The monk who sold his Ferrari

Time to read this book again. Robin Sharmas epic book about personal growth really shook me up the first time around, and i hae complete faith that it will again. We have one life to live, lets make the most of it. (Its either that or settle for mediocrity)



And for some karate-twist: Amos sensei have said many times that if we practice something in the wrong way, then it will take many repetitions to "unlearn" this action. I fully believe this to be the case, and urge therefore everyone to look at the fundamentals of what they are doing, and see if they are sound. If not, then maybe change em? I know i will.

Economy-issues

As most people may have noticed, the icelandic economy is in a bit of a pickle.... I will not pretend to be understanding the whys and hows, but it sure makes it less fun to be shopping when the krona is getting less and less worth in relation to the €/$/£ or the cool original krona... (norwegian currency... ;) )

My friends will probably suggest that i like electronic gadgets and buying them in foreignia always was the way to go. As of now though, i will settle for posting my frustrations here and wait for things to recover, so that i eventually may shop again.

And if Santa reads my blog (hihi)...... here is my list of planned purchases:

Hirota #163 custom karate-suit
Ear Force X4 headphones for my Xbox 360
Red 2 GB Ipod Shuffle for working out
Ipod Classic for the car
Flip Mino HD with custom faceplate
Logitech Harmony 1000 remote
24" monitor for my PC
Smallish but powerful laptop
42" LCD with wall-mount

Some of these does seem a bit overzealous, i agree, but a new karate-suit and the X4 headset seems very important. I need to find a way of getting those here in not too long.

Proof that karate works....

As is evident; When people train karate, they get way fitter. Good job.

Geirrun told me to post this this pic on my blog....

What, you want proof? Ok, below is a direct quote:
