Since I am graduating soon we had "Dimmission" at school yesterday. Icelandic tradition which includes dressing up in very silly costumes, drinking a large amount of alcoholic beverages and giving out prizes for nice teachers.
The day went like this:

• 5.30 am Wake up, start drinking, take shower, drink more
• 7 am Rented a house to drink in from 6am, most people were there around that time. Since some people carpooling with me were late we were there an hour late
• 8 am The group got dressed up like Elvis, wig, sunnies and everything and rehersed some naughty songs about school and various teachers. Drinking more.
• 9 am Walked in a group of 36 Elvises to school. Along the way we lifted the windshield wipers of all the cars in the school parking lot. Traditional prank.
• 9.10 am Rowdy singing and dealing out lollipops to nice teachers
• 9.35 am Pizza with the teachers, singing, photos and more pizza
• 10 am until 1 pm we had some free time. Went to the library to do some Elvis moves but retired to my home after that to play cards and drink some more.
• 12.50 One of the guys decided to pull a stunt and almost severed his spine. Passed out for a few minutes. A quarter of an hour later he stood up and had more beer. Icelandic viking.
• 3 pm Twelve pee-stops, two smirinoffs and a liter of vodkamix later we arrived to Reykjavik for belly dancing lessons. Obviously I was a professional.
• 4. 30 Scavenger hunt (for those of you who dont know what that is: Its a game where you get a list of things the team needs to complete, quite interesting) :
• My tasks:
              Kiss one portuguese guy
              Kiss a bus driver
              Go horsebackriding on a polish person
• Other accomplishments by very drunk players:
              2 guys shaved their heads
              1 guy got arrested (not a part of the game)
              2 other guys got charged for breaking and entering the parliaments car park and harrassing senators
              2 guys and 1 girl passed out, guy and a girl missed dinner

So it was a pretty nice day and we ended it at a pub near Selfoss where we drank even more and danced the night away still dressed as Elvis. Went to sleep rather early around 3 am.

I like graduation :)
