My first optional assignment.

For this optional assignment, I decided to watch an episode of big bang theory to catch new words and practice my listening skills.


The episode S1E4 is about Sheldon getting fired because he is rude to his boss and he is really annoying Penny because he is trying to control what she buys and he is trying to do research on a luminous fish than Leonard called Sheldon's mother to come and help Sheldon, Leonard is concerned about him. His mother tells Leonard to go back and talk to his boss to get his job back, and he got his job back because of his mother.


What I learned- I learned a few new words; here they are

Spelunking is another word for caving - hellaskoðun
Anecdotes- Saga / tala um einhvern
Bowel - Þarmar
sonic - hjóðlægt

And I practiced my writing skills and listening skills.
My Second optional assignment.

For this optional assignment, I decided to read an article on Fox News because I like to read articles.
Here is the link to it
https://www.foxnews.com/us/florida-mom-tracey-rieker-missing-body-pond

It is about a missing woman that disappeared last month, and the police found her body in a car in a pond. She was a 44-year-old mother of 4. She left the house while her husband was still sleeping and left without her phone and wallet.



What I learned from reading this article is. I learn new words.

Pond - tjörn
Submerged- Kafi
Deceased - látinn
religious outreach -trúlega útrás



I practiced my reading skills in the assignment I chose.
My role model is.....
My third optional assignment.

For this assignment, I decided to watch the movie Rocketman.

The movie Rocketman is about the life of Elton John. It begins when he is little and ends when he gets sober. It shows that he had a really hard life until he got sober, when he was a little boy he did not have parents that really cared for him and when he got older he was an alcoholic and a drug attic and was scarred from his past. He then got a boyfriend and they seemed happy at first but it turned out that his boyfriend did not love him, he also tried to kill himself. But in the end, he got sober and lived a happy life. He got a husband and two kids.


What I learned is to listen and understand and also listen to the accent. I also learned about Elton John's life and it surprised me a lot because I did not know anything about him but I thought he had just lived a really good and happy life but the movie shows the opposite and that it can be really hard to be so famous.
