Vikings-The Original Crime Riders
Aight. Here's the dealio-yo. Things are going pretty great here in Denmark. Life is progressing as usual. I had a pretty cool weekend though. Well... let's start earlier. I had a rough week last week. We had to write this crazy essay called SRO, and it was intense. We had to read About a Boy by Nick Hornby, and then write an essay basically analyzing and interpreting the book and how it relates to family patterns in late modern society. It was supposed to be five to seven pages. In Danish. I think I managed to squeeze out about four and a half pages. Ugh. It was utterly exhausting. So on Friday, after we had turned it in, we had a mini party at Else's new apartment which involved lots of pizza and Across the Universe. That was a lot of fun. Good start to my weekend. Saturday, I slept in and chilled. Then my host mom took me for a walk out in Tornby so I could see what the water is like when it's up really high. The wind has been blowing a lot, so it was pretty crazy looking. Then we also went for a walk in the woods out there. It is a super beautiful area of the country, which I definitely look forward to showing my parents when we come to visit in summer of 2012, wink wink nudge nudge... Anywho, that was a good day. Sunday, we drove down to Aalborg to Bella's apartment. We picked her up, and then went to a sweet Viking museum called Lindholm Høje. It was really interesting. When we got there, we ran into Alex and her host dad, so that was cool. We got to wander around and learn about Vikings together. It was really cool. There was a museum part where they had artifacts and stories and movies and general museum things, (not to mention a gift shop where I could spend a fortune on things to bring home to the family) and there was also a big part outside where there were a bunch of old graves. And some sheep. :) Cute sheep. We petteded them. It was nice. Other than that, not much exciting stuff has happened. Mmm.... at the moment, my sister is cooking salmon for dinner, and I'm really excited. Muahaha. Salmon. Be jealous, Nebraskans! Oh! Another exciting thing that happened in the past couple weeks. I went to a Lucy Love concert. It was epic. If you don't know who she is, you should look her up. On Youtube. Daddy Was a DJ is a good song. Have fun. I'm gonna go eat salmon now, while listening to Natasja, the Danish reggae artist. Yes. Danish reggae. It does exist. In fact... look her up too. :) Ildebrand i byen is good. Have a great day. Love from Denmark to all y'all. <3
