Retired in Iceland!!!!!!

I have heard people say that the thought of retirement eats you. Just the idea of getting up in the morning and not knowing where to go, whom to meet and simply how to pass ur day makes you wonder how will the remaining days of your life pass. My internship ended on Friday, & my advisor left for Iran so I am in short retired in Iceland. I still have about 10 more days to enjoy this retired life in ICeland but its the second day and Im getting anxious and frustrated, if thats the right word, bored I wont say. Atleast the persons who retire at 60, have their grandsons to play with, I dont even have a "good" girl friend here, whom I can spend my evenings with, leave alone the whole day. The weekend was busy as all the weekends here have been. I thank Bing for taking me to the meditation center as I really like going there but the sad part is they dont assemble everyday, they do it on Fridays and Sundays only. Its jst Tuesday, and I dont know what to do. I cant prepone my tickets because I bought those cheap infexible tickets and now changing my schedule would cost around 30k INR, which is around 60% of my return ticket price from India. Moreover I dont know why, even after getting 6000 USD Im not even breaking even, short by 50k INR so Im not even thinking twice of making the ticket change. In a nut shell, I have 10 more days doing nothing in Iceland. Im planning to go to the north as its said to be very scenic and beautiful as all the places are here in Iceland. Lets see how this works out. But I tell you, sitting when you have nothing to do, eats you guys....so get work when you complete college..which I know we would get studying in the self proclaimed premier insitute of Information Technology and Management!!!
