unbreakable

and now, because I am sick and tired again - totally ridiculous - here's another pic from the night of lights.

The view over part of town, with the fiord and ice fog in the background. It's extreme high tide these days, when the sea actually breaks through the massive amount of ice. And when sea water hits -30°C, it makes a lot of thick fog, fast.

don't know what sort of kryptonite I swallowed, but my immune system is awful this year. I am getting sick again. I think it's just a bad cold. Makes me grumpy and tired.

Not so grumpy, though, that I can't appreciate my classes. My maths are going really well so far this term (yes, I know it is only three days in). But it's been two good days in a row, and one of those was a friday and the other was a monday. If you aren't superstitious about mondays, fridays and full moons, you should be.

Art classes are going fairly well, too. The teacher downstairs is no longer hating me, because we have stopped pounding. Stenciling requires tapping these huge paintbrushes, end on, with dry paint on them... it's loud for the people downstairs. But now we're on to linoleum carving. No one has cut their hand yet, but I am estimating three cuts before the project is finished. We're having some technical difficulties with the inks and printing, but I hope to resolve those difficulties tomorrow.

I make more typos per typita (just go with it) now than I did ten years ago.
