Hey honeys!

Happy new year!!

2007-01-01T06:38:00.000-08:00

I want you wish you all a happy new year and hope that last year was good to you :0) .
I was so happy to open this page today and read news from you. I haven´t looked in here for a while.
Everything is good here in Iceland. Icelanders went cracy last night and there were so many fireworks here that the air was foggy with smoke. I couldn´t see the houses in the next street.
Everyday life is pretty much just work, work, work. I am working at a preschool with four years old. I have five employees below me and that is new to me. I have to see to it that 20 children and five adults (all older then me ;0) have enough to do. Diffrent experience but I think a really good one.
Hope to hear more news soon. Are there any more "jelling children" on the way??? Congratulation Adriana and jakob
Lots and lots of new years hugs from Hjördís :0)

News from France

2006-12-09T06:26:00.000-08:00

Got this mail from Lucile..here it is!

Hi Svava!!
It's Lucile from France, I'm sending you some news by mail for I don't know how to put this on the blog : (
So this year, I have teaching pupils from 4 to 5 years old and I'm very glad of this. I like my job a lot and I have the chance to have a very friendly coleegue whith whom I can speak and work ! :)
I moved and I'm glad of my flat. My cat is fine. The only quack is that I have no boyfriend ... but I'm not in a hurry, am I?
See you girls!
I'm glad that we keep in touch.
:)

News from Germany

2006-10-23T15:20:00.000-08:00

Hey girls!
How are you? I'm so sorry that I didn't use this blog for such a long time. Shame on me! As some of you already know, Kristin and I finished our exams this summer and had a lot of stress doing that. Luckily, my exams went extremely well, and I'm quite happy about that.

At the end of July and beginnig of August, Malte and I finally went to visit Svava and Krissi and had 11 wonderful days in Niceland. We fell in love with that f***ing awesome country at once and really have to come back and see the rest! Iceland is sooo beautiful and different from Germany!!! And I was so happy to see Svava, Krissi and Hjördis again. Oh, I miss you!!! Hopefully next time, we also manage to visit our two ladies further in the north ;)

Now back in Germany, I already started my 2-year-practical training (Referendariat) in a primary and lower secondary school 25 km away from my parents' home. Therefore, I had to move back to my parents' farm where Malte, my sister and I renovated two rooms for me and got myself a car (Toyota Yaris in silver, 5 doors, 4 years old and 26,000 km). I have to teach a very sweet first grade in mathematics (5 lessons per week) and one lesson in art. Then, I have 2 English lessons in a 3rd grade, 1 English lesson in a 7th grade, one lesson in a 7th and 8th grade (mixed course) and 2 lessons in a 10th grade. As you can see, I have to teach a wide range of different ages. The pupils in primary school are great and I really like to teach them! They are always happy when they see me. Teaching the older ones is much harder - especially with the 7th and 8th graders. Boah, they can be extremely annoying and disturbing! At least the 10th class is working better again. Although my time management is rellay not the best and I sometimes have to sit and prepare my stuff late at night, I'm still enjoying the new job! Right at the moment, I'm enjoying my two weeks off (autumn break) and am already trying to prepare at least some stuff for the coming weeks. But next Friday, Malte and I are going to visit my sister in her new home in Amstrerdam. I'm really looking forward to that trip because I have heard so many good things about that city.

But what about you, sillybillies?

Hope to hear from you, soon.

Hugs from Kerstin!

Hey Svava!

We wish you all the best to your decider-day! Instead of a real one - at least a piece of cake from last year :) Hope you're having a wonderful day. Just imagine we would celebrate it with you in the underhuset!

Hugs and kisses from Malte and Kerstin!

Heyho!

2005-09-23T08:22:00.000-08:00

Hey Hjördis,
I thought that you already got lost :) Have a nice time in Koebenhavn and don't forget to make such funny photobox pictures for us!

Yes, I'm almost alive - if I wouldn't have to write my awful exam-essay at the moment! Althhough it's about comparing the german and the danish school system, I can't see it anymore. And I'm a bit stressed to get it finished in time - PANIC!!!!!!
From tonight on, I have 4 nightshifts in a row and hope to get other thoughts for a little while.
Anyway, Jasna is coming to Lüneburg, on Friday to study here for one semester. And I'm already caring about a chinese girl who also came here to study. Last week, we had a funny and drunken pubnight with all the other exchange students and on Wednesday a nice intercultural evening with some others.
But Svava, what about the chicken?!

Hope that you're all fine,

hugs and kisses from Kerstin!

2005-09-20T02:51:00.000-08:00

Hey hey all you beautiful people!!!!

That will be fun :) maybe I will do some shopping ;) Who knows?????

Well all you sillybillies hope to here from you soon. Write or comment to let everybody known that you are alife..........

Hilsener fra Island

2005-07-05T13:16:00.000-08:00

Hello Girls...and Dave if you are reading!!
I am doing ok, the trip to Lanzarote was really great and we had a good time. The island is very small, only 100 km long and 20 km wide... so we drove around it all and saw those places of interest. I started to wonder... my country has soooo much more places than this little island...but also many that are similar, because this island is volcanic just like Iceland...which you remember is BIGGER than Ireland and Denmark!:)
Kerstin.. I read about this festival in Deutschland.. and I thought you guys were there!
Now, Foo fighters are here and Queens of the stone age, also Duran Duran were here last week.. I missed it because I was working.
I am working at a home for disabled youngsters(16-21) and I like it a lot. They are very different from each other, but all are great! The home is a big house, two years old, with 6 studio apartments inside, one for each person. Everything is really great there and they even have Arne Jacobsen chairs in the dining room.
Other things are doing good and Kristin and Jan are coming after 4 weeks!!!
I got e mail from Amy from Hungary. She is graduated now and is getting married in August!! Congrats Amy!
Well...hope you are doing great.
Greetings from Iceland!

Hey sweeties!

After almost 3 months finally a short "Hello" from Lüneburg.
Last week I had quite a good seminar on painting for 3 days - and it worked. Yeah, I'm an artist! (At least for one week). Next weekend I'm going to attend another compact seminar but now on drawing. Oh Hjördis and Hanna, I miss our kitchen session drawing each other :)

This weekend there was a huge openair-festival not far from here (not even one hour by car). 60.000 people went there and Malte and me of course. And - although it was f****** cold and rainy, it was great fun! There were lots of bands, e.g. Die Ärzte, System of a Down, Nine Inch Nails, Rammstein, Audioslave, Oasis, Queens of the Stoneage, Boysetsfire, Wir sind Helden, Turbonegro, Beatsticks, Beck, ... and lots of smaller bands.

But what about you holiday-girls? Svava, are you already back on your beloved Iceland? And Hjördis, what about you? Are you staying in your toyshop or are you planning to go anywhere (e.g. what about a trip to your five sexy Berlin-guys)?!

Take care, girls!

Hugs and kisses from Kerstin!

hej hej

2005-05-22T04:09:00.000-08:00

hej girls

2005-02-24T01:55:00.000-08:00

Hi girls!!
How are you? I moved into my new room three weeks ago and I am still busy to make it nice and homely. It is really a big room, I never had so much space before and so it is a bit hard to get it filled ;)
What else can I say? We had lots of snow the last few days, of course not as much as it might be in Austria or Iceland, but for our region it was quite good. I went for a walkthrough the woodnext to our river Ilmenau this morning and it was extremely beautiful with all the snow.
I am still writing on my report about the practise we did in Denmark... but I will finish it next week, hopefully.
Next weekend Jan and me and a few friends of us (including Tobi, you all know him, and my ex-boy-friend...) will go to Heidelberg to visit our friends Katha and Tim there. I am really looking forward to see them and Heidelberg is a great city. The university is one of the oldest in Germany, so there is a lot of culture and history among the city. We will have a great time I think.After that Jan and me will go to Mannheim,which is rigth next to Heidelberg to visit my uncle and aunt.
Yey, thats whats going on here in little Lüneburg :)
I hope to hear from you soon!!
I miss you all.
Take care,
Kristin :)

Finally!!!

2005-02-21T14:40:00.000-08:00

Hola....

2005-02-03T13:56:00.000-08:00

Well I think many many days ago I promised to send the Frenchies the recipe of the Kleiner we made for the Farewell Party...here it is:
500 g flour
100 g sugar
1 1/2 tsp sal volatile
2 tsp cardimommes
125 g butter
2 eggs
1 dl milk
500 g oil for frying
Mix the dry stuff together on a table. Put the cold butter into it with your hands. Make the dough wet with eggs and milk..when you put it in you make a hole in the flour and put it there inside. Then knead the dough together with your hands. It should not stick to the table.
Divide it into 4 parts. Make it lean with the stick made out of wood, I do not remember what it is called. Cut it along on the side and make a whole in the middle of each part. Every part should be 3 cm wide and about 5-10 cm long. turn it inside out through the hole in the middle. Heat the frying oil until it is quite hot. Fry the Kleiner until they are golden brown. Remember to turn them around. Take them from the pot and out on a piece of kitchen paper towel to dry. Remember that you can fry a few at a time.
Hope you like it. If you forget something look at the pictures...they are here:

Enjoy:D
Love from Svava Björk

okei...

2005-02-03T13:34:00.000-08:00

As you can see I just posted the recipe and some pictures...this Hello thing is really good and fast:D Hope you guys will also use it. Please put some photos here so we can all see:D
The first one is moi of course and the second one was taken at my place at a class-party I threw. hjördis is on it singing and one of my best friend is the one with the really blond hair..in the middle..her name is Disa and she has a little baby boy in her tummy:D
Well..just a little thing for now. I am so completely busy at school..if I wanted to I could easily spend all my time sitting and reading. This semester I am taking many courses that have something about reading in it...reading problems, how children learn to read and so on..very interesting I would say:D
Okei..so..keep up the good work...
Has anyone heard anything from Silvia or Beate?

Hey everybody!
First of all a big THANK YOU to Svava for creating this side for us! I think it is a good idea and I hope that we will use it.
So what to tell you, I am fine and looking forward to move into my new room next weekend. I will share the flat with two other girls. They seem to be nice and the flat is right next to the campus, which is really good.
The weather here is terrible, 7degrees and rain all day.. but I have to learn for a test next week anyway and to write my report about the practise (still!!).
So, I hope you are all doing fine. I often think about our time in Denmark, when I look at the pictures and so on.
Ok, hope to hear or read from you soon!!
Take care,
Kristin

A little hello from Svava

2005-01-28T11:51:00.000-08:00

I guess I am going to blog here a little bit.
So..how is everyone?
I just have had e-mails from Kerstin and Kristin, and the french girls and also talked to them all online on msn. Where are the rest of you guys? Hopefully haven´t you forgotten us already have ya?? Beate and Silvia?? You never come online on msn...we are starting to think that you guys just blocked us or something..hmm..hopefully not:D
Here in Niceland(Iceland) :) everything is fine. The snow has almost left us with no oppurtunity to go skiing, I was going to but now it is too late, at least for a while..but hey I could wake up tomorrow and there would be snow all over..the weather here changes very quickly.
Hanna is the one left in Jelling and I certainly hope she is doing good. The 2 Icelandic girls who were supposed to go there decided not to, so there are the french girls, living in the 4-room apartment with the danish girl anne Sofie and a finnish girl.....
I heard that we will have to postpone our REUNION in Jelling this spring. I am going to Lanzarote for three weeks, Kerstin will be busy in Hamburg on a major concert, and Kristin will also be busy..but hey..you can of course go..but there won´t be any fun if we are not there you know:Dhahahahahhahaha
Well...hope you like this bloggy thing...Kerstin THANKS FOR THE SILLYBILLY thing..I just took it and changed it into sillybillies..that´s us...
That´s all folks...
see you,
