    Maybe the reason that icelanders are so happy is that they seldom go to work. On the other hand, this causes severe anxiety disorders because they have no money to pay their bills. LOL

    flower,

    I would be happy if I didn’t have to go to work everday as well. I wonder how they get away with it? I guess it is expected and part of the culture. Maybe I should pack my bags and move to Iceland. LOL

    People are odd. Ever sat on a park bench and watched them? You can learn a lot and some of it is hilarious.

    Yeah I agree with the person who commented before me. They are really weird and I to love to just sit on the park bench and watch the different people walk by. You really don’t have to sit and watch you can always go to you local mall or supermarket and see the same exact people. My friends and I always go to the mall and make fun of how people walk and stuff like that. I know it seems mean but it’s truely really funny to see them. Thanks for letting me comment!!! Yay I love high school Biology 2
