Owl, congratulations on passing your driving test! Long may you enjoy it and drive in safety. Having a licence will open up so much more of the world to you. Not to mention more privacy and personal freedom, eventually, and lots more work opportunities. Good luck!

Also chuckling at the Nuttella! At least this Maximilian has a sweet sense of humour. Why, if I may ask, do your parents not like him? And does your sister?

FIVE YEARS OF "not full license" AGHHHH GODDDD XD

Hmmmm I think they don't like him because he has dated other girls I guess? And once he made a joke about my sister's jaw that upset her so they have never forgiven him. She does like him though, and they have gone on secret dates.

Owl congratulations on the license! Bleh to the waiting period, but it'll go by faster than it might seem.

... That is so much Nutella. What is she going to do with it all?!

Me- "Iceland! Iceland's at the top of my travel list!"
Her- "Really?! Why?"
Me- >__> ".......It's pretty!"

Me, every time. Somehow people always seem really incredulous about me wanting to travel to Iceland.

Same here, except expand it to the Nordic countries in general. "Sweden? ...Why?"

(...)The only issue is that we don't know if it came from Sweden or Norway because A) it is a viking ship and B) the sail is striped with gold and blue. So I'm thinking maybe it's Swedish?? (snip)

Sweden. No maybe about it, with those colors on the sail. Swedish vikings went plundering too, but mostly eastwards. (If that necklace had been made and sold in Norway, every single potential norwegian customer would go "...but why have you made it a swedish ship?"
And congratulations on passing your theory exam! Wow, that was a lot of tests before you're truly let loose on the road!

Yes. This sounds fake. But it is sadly, sadly true.

Actually, it sounds all kinds of awesome and a good basis for some sweet teenaged film

And why not ? Moreover, it would be a perfect place for a meet-up between US and Europe. Let's plan to invade Iceland ! Again...

I like Iceland. Haven't been for decades, but beautiful rocks. Glaciers, awesome greenhouses, hiking in cold desert. Hot pools. Tiny intricate plants. And did I mention beautiful rocks?

Also, I'm afraid Minna doesn't visit this Forum. 
that is for sure, she has visited it once or twice, I remember her commenting somewhere about a topic in the forum once.

I threw mine out.  We didn't have room in the freezer after it ceased being a "NoShaveMber" novelty.
