Let's try again

Hi everyone.
I've decided to try to devote myself to this blog more than I have because I feel like there is so much I want to share with whoever bothers with reading things I write."But Sandra, why are you writing in English?". Well, last winter I met a lot of awesome people and I am hoping to run into more awesome people in the future. Since I live in America, changes are they will not all be able to read Icelandic. Plus, I might use this site as an artblog too alongside, my room decoration, cooking and my view on life.
Sorry mom and dad, you're just going to have to read about my days in English.
So, intro into my life is appropriate I guess. My name is Sandra, I'm from a magic island, located in the North Atlantic, named by the ancient vikings as Iceland. Is that dramatic enough for ya?
But all was not right in the world because I always yearned for something more. That is why I moved across the globe to attend university. In San Francisco California to be exact. There I attend the Academy of Art University and will be starting my second year there this semester.
I'm majoring in 2D animation (Bachelor Degree) but I hope to someday work as a Character Designer for a big company like Disney.
Place of living is in Nob Hill right in the heart of San Francisco. I share an aparment with two of my best friends, Eileen and Chelsea. Eileen and I share one of the two bedrooms. It's a really nice place. Here are some pictures from last spring when Chelsea and me moved in:









This is my room, it has probably changed the most because we are now two in it.











The closet to the bathroom and then the bathroom. We found that bookcase right around the corner
from our apartment. The sidewalk, your very own free shopping center.




Then the
kitchen, which isn't
normally this messy *cough*. We got a new stove, microwave, hardly used refrigerator AND a dishwasher with the apartment. Score!





A little peak into Chelsea's room.








But that's enough information about me for now. I'm going to upload my newest pictures and finds soon.
