we were built by the living.
theavant-gardeplaylist: I think I’ve made up my mind, I want to live in Iceland. Maybe for Graduate School.
eastling: I may have said this [several, several] times, but I am TOTALLY LIVING IN ICELAND after I graduate. Slowly picking up the language; I even made my Facebook default language Íslensku to help me out. I’m going to visit sometime this summer, too. SO SO EXCITED.
theavant-gardeplaylist: No way!! I’m right now studying Icelandic for my linguistics project. I can tell you now I’ve already fallen in love with it. There’s so many things that come from that country that are absolutely awesome; Sígor Rós, Ólafur Arnalds, beautiful Icelandic women :P. I’m studying abroad in Russia my undergraduate courses. I recently switched my major to Russian. If I make enough money, I’m planning on going to Iceland for graduate school. Slavic and Scandinavian/Norwegian cultures are quite wonderful. I have facebook in Russian too, great minds think alike.
What are you using to learn Icelandic?? I’m desperately trying to find an effective resource, but right now all I have is a hodgepodge of random Icelandic blogs, a really terrible translation site, and an Icelandic-English online dictionary (but it doesn’t work English-Icelandic and I don’t get the grammar AT ALL). I’m thinking about living in Iceland for a while, and then going to grad school in Oslo. Scandinavia is, I think, my favorite corner of the world… possibly because of my own ancestry, haha!
theavant-gardeplaylist:...Yeah, we definitely should! I’m going to email you about that...
I have an Icelandic Primer written by Henry Sweet, you can get it online for free or I can send it to you in an email....
