Lets have some water.. it's worth it!Magnhildur Ingólfsdóttir
VATN
- 75% Bandaríkjamanna eru með krónískan ofþurrk. (Á sennilega við helminginn af íbúum jarðar)
- Hjá 37% Bandaríkjamanna er þorstaskynjunin orðin svo slök að hún er oft túlkuð sem hungur.
- Jafnvel vægur ofþurrkur getur hægt á brennslukerfi líkamans um 3%.
- Eitt glas af vatni nægði til að slá alveg á hungurverki seint að kvöldi hjá næstum 100% þátttakenda í könnum hjá Háskóla í Washington.
- Ónóg neysla af vatni, er í FYRSTA SÆTI yfir það sem veldur þreytu yfir daginn.
- Niðurstöður úr einni könnun gefa til kynna að drekki fólk 8-10 glös af vatni yfir daginn gæti það létt á bakverkjum og liðaverkjum hjá allt að 80% þeirra sem þjást af þessum verkjum.
- Ef vatnið í líkamanum minnkar um aðeins 2% getur það valdið lélegu skammtímaminni, erfiðleikum með einfalda stærðfræði og skorti á einbeitingu við lestur á tölvuskjá eða annað prentmál.
- Að drekka 5 glös af vatni á dag dregur um 45% úr áhættu á krabbameini í þörmum auk þess sem það getur dregið allt að 79% úr áhættu á brjóstkrabba og lækkar áhættu karlmanna á blöðruhálskrabbameini um 50%.
- Viltu ekki fá þér vatnssopa???
Coke
- Í mörgum bandarískum fylkjum er vegalögreglan með 10 lítra af kóki bílunum hjá sér til að þrífa blóð af vegum eftir umferðarslys.
- Þú getur sett T-Bone steik í skál af kóki og hún verður horfin eftir 2 daga.
- Til að hreinsa klósettið: Helltu einni dós af kók ofan í klósetið, bíddu í eina klukkustund og sturtaðu svo niður. Sýran í kókinu leysir upp bletti.
- Til að fjarlægja ryðbletti af krómstuðurum: Dýfðu krumpuðum álpappír í kók og nuddaðu stuðarann.
- Til að hreinsa rafgeyminn í bílnum: Helltu einni dós af kók yfir rafgeymatengslin.
- Til að losa ryðgaðan bolta (skrúfu). Rennbleyttu tusku með kóki og haltu henni að boltanum í nokkrar mínútur.
- Til að fjarlægja fitubletti úr fatnaði: Helltu einni dós af kók í þvottavélina bættu við þvottaefni og þvoðu eins og venjulega. Kókið leysir upp fitublettina.
- Framrúðan á bílnum þínum hreinsast líka vel með kóki.
- Virka efnið í kók er phosphoric acid. Ph í kók er 2.8. Það getur leyst upp nögl á ca fjórum dögum.
- Til að flytja Coca-Cola sýrópið (fullan styrk) þurfa vöruflutningabifreiðar að hafa á sér viðvörunarskilti sem einungis eru notuð á bíla sem annast flutning á MJÖG ÆTANDI EFNUM.
- Dreifingaraðilar Coca-Cola hafa notað gosdrykkinn í um það bil 20 ár til að hreinsa vélarnar í trukkunum hjá sér.
- Langar þig enn í hressandi dós af Cola drykk?

Let go of your Fear n'FLY!Magnhildur Ingólfsdóttir
I always thought I hated routines.. But now I'm realizing that I need it.. My life was a bit "caozic" since I got back from Istanbul; I was moving, doing AIESEC work, shool had already started, doing Herbalife work and starting my thesis [in this order]
I had so lost my priorities and have been in a identy dilemma, kind of..
But now things are coming together... We had this amazing montly business training at Herbalife yesterday, it always clears my focus and increases my confidence going there.
Now I'll just take one step at the time, starting by putting my thesis in priority, finish it and go to Dublin in November (coming back two days before I turn it in)
I bumped into this quote from an AIESECer, purfect moment, I'll be living by it at least for the next 2 months
Have Fun, Be Bold, Challenge Yourself, Stand On Your Own Feet, Live The Moment, Value Family n' Friends, Have Respect, Believe In Yourself That You Can Do Whatever You Want, Whatever Your Goal Is You Will Never Succeed Unless You Let Go Of Your FEAR n' FLY!!!!!!!
la vie la vie..Magnhildur Ingólfsdóttir
Even though the day is getting shorter here and it's just been raining and all grey.. Then I don't feel like talking about that..
I should rather be telling you about all the exciting projects I have in school. Since I came in late from Istanbul, I already missed 2 weeks of school and that counted heavily in one course so the teacher wanted me out of it and into some special assignment..
I think it's something very exciting, specially since I'm all into this internationalization.. We're 5 Icelandic students working on something, that I will know more about after our meeting tomorrow. And in November there'll be a group of students coming from the Nordic countries and Estonia working with us in groups for a week.
This will be something about the financial market and investments and we're all gonna present it in the end..
Cool ha?
And another course we're having, Marketing communication & Design, is about business students coming up with some business idea related to the "Icelandic invation". And we're gonna work on the idea with students from the Academy of Art and in the end we'll defend it at the Art museum of Reykjavík were the judges will be some well known and important guys from Icelandic business life. WOOOW
And it’s a great honor that our instructor in this course is one of the greatest entrepreneurs in Iceland, he has founded a lot of successful companies so it’s great to have access to a person like that J
Þannig að núna borgar sig að spýta í lófana og nýta sér öll þessi tækifæri en ekki sitja bara og grenja yfir að þetta sé of mikil vinna og það sé bara betra að hanga á Facebook allan daginn..
sweet sweet Istanbul!Magnhildur Ingólfsdóttir
ok well I don't quite know how sweet Istanbul is since I only went into the city twice, in a group with a bus..
But what I know is that I love the whole concept of this International Conference of AIESEC. We were around 1000 young people, from more than 100 countries, living together at an University campus for 10 days. The agenda was a tight one, started at 9 am and run until midnight; sessions, meetings and discussions. And after that was party every night, hosted by different group of countries with different themes every time, e.g. Pirates, drag, Africano, Wild Wild West, beach, Turkish and glamour.. I have sooo many photos..![]()
It was so amazing, building this network of friends from all over, getting to know totally different reality from what I’m used to here in Iceland. It really affected me.. One day there was a guy in one of the sessions sharing his experience of being HIV positive, just imagine that, it’s horrible. So even though I’ve always been aware of social issues, it has never affected me the way it does now..
My plan WAS to go abroad after my graduation and AIESEC term in July, the most resent plan was to go to Denmark and study photography.. but it’s starting to sound a bit dull. Now I wanna go to South Africa and be “international MC” or “CEEDer” or go there on my internship, try to contribute something there.
Or not quite as exotic would be to go to Germany and study German [has been on my list of dreams since Cologne] There’s a slight difference in those two, hihihi
But however it turns out, I really wanna find a way to be involved in AIESEC and attend the IC in Brazil next year, and Malaysia the year after.. yeap, I’m hooked..
I know I’ve found my path, combining Herbalife and AIESEC together, now I’ll just have to choose the way!
For those University students or resent graduates who are interested in finding out more what the benefits are of AIESEC, we are in the middle of recruitment right now, come for an info-meeting and join us! http://www.aiesec.org/iceland/
