It Was A Very Good Year.....

I just thought that we should sort of re-introduce ourselves since it's been such a long time since we all spoke. I'll start.

This spring I graduated from school and started a new school this autumn which I love 'cause I hated my old school. We have a different school system here in Iceland you're in "grunnskóli" (which is kinda like comprehensive school I guess) from ages 6-16 and then you start "menntaskóli" from ages 16-20 and after that you go to university

So anyway I've started a new school and everything's really great

I'm also still writing my book and it's taking foreeeever 'cause I keep changing my mind about things and realising that I have to do so much so I think that I'll never finish it.

But right now I'm supposed to be studying for two exams tomorrow and loads of homework!

thats awesome Brie, i didnt know you had to go to "high school" till you're twenty.
what do you want to take in university? and whats your book about?

okay, so something about me... thats relatively new..
well i've pretty much just been hanging out lately, nothing too exciting going on.
i'm 17 and in grade 12 now, which is fun and i'm doing surprisingly well.
i want to go to university and major in psychology, thats probably what i'm going to do next year.
i have a new boyfriend as well, who's 21 (i know, ancient ) and he's majoring right now in psychology!
lol not that thats relevant to anything.
but anyways, how's everyone else been doing?

I want to do psychology too!! coincidence. I always wanted to be an archaeologist but then I realised that I didn't have the patience to sit in a hole with a spoon just digging away so I gave up on that lol
I dunno what kind of psychology I want to do though...just wait and see.

and my book sounds really stupid when I try and explain it but here it goes. It's about a girl called Veronica who is raised in secret in a small village (in another world called Imbria). Her parents were King and Queen of Imbria but there was a fire when Veronica was seven years old so they fled because they knew someone was trying to kill them. So Veronica is raised in a small village until she is about twenty and then she travels back to her city to claim her throne. A bunch of things happen in between....
so it sounds stupid and childish and I'm crap at explaining any book really but there you have it.
