Despite living in a country where it's never above 20C Icelanders take their ice cream very very seriously.

We started out at 8pm with my friend deciding we were going on an "ísbíltúr" which is basically an ice cream run. So we drive all the way to Mosfellsbær to pick up everyone else and then we drove basically all over the country looking for an ice cream place. Apperently the entire population of Reykjavík had the same idea and all the places were really crowded. Eventually we ended up in breiðholt or somewhere and found this random ice cream place. It was 10pm and we still had to wait in line for 20min. The ice cream was amazing though :D

I have a feeling I would fit right in in Iceland... :D (but seriously, the amount of times I've had the urge to go get ice cream late at night)

Yes! Come join us! It's a lot of fun! We finished our ice cream and we're currently at some park in breiðholt sitting on play ground equipment that is way too small for us and making way too much noise for 11pm.

I WANT. Both the temperature and the ice cream (it's consistently 30C here, and so very humid).

Okay, so I was reading Homestuck a few months back and I stopped, I think, by the beginning of Act 4 or something. Should I keep going? Is it worth it?

I have no idea what to answer this. Because yeah sure it has some great moments and great characters, but on the other hand it's enormous and confusing and a bit of a commitment. there is no good way to answer this question


... two weeks till I go back to Norway.

Uh, why? Didn't you spend the "vacation" working anyways? Try to focus on the positive side of things. Like, Norway.

it feels like I haven't had a proper vacation and then it's back to uni and I have no idea how i'm gonna do the uni thing and eeeeeeeeegh i think that's what causing me most distress

but yeah it will be nice to be back in norway though. and back to all my things and art supplies!

Welcome to adulthood! :D
Anyway, I'm sure you'll be fine. my last two summers were spent in grad school, so it was classes/papers, and working, and volunteering, so I don't know if I can speak on the subject, but just... try to find fun when you can? And don't be afraid to just, take a mental health day and not do anything at all, or whatever makes you feel better.
