phew...

It feels so good to be relaxing at home tonight..
Last week saw me go to school 4 times, work 4 times, 3 concerts, 2 parties, 1 dinner with the girls and 1 hot date. And get to all of this by bike!

Monday was my only rest and then Tuesday night it was off to see Kora play at Loppen in Christiania. I didn't really know what to expect but was looking forward to some music at home. They were really great! The only thing I didn't like is that they didn't play for longer. They played everything from reggae to rock to mad drum & bass, the latter being my favourite, couldn't stop dancing. Kat came all the way from seeing the night before in Berlin and just made it back in time to catch them again. We tried to find somewhere to have a beer and catch up after the concert but it being a Tuesday night there was nothing open around Christianshavn.

Wednesday was a busy 9 hour day at work and then I was convinced by Alex that I definitely should go to see Roots Manuva play at Loppen. I couldn't really say no as he had come to Kora with me so it was off on my bike to Christiania again. This was not really my taste in music but was fun to have a dance and laugh at how wasted the guy was. I guess the Danish beer and Christiania weed was too tempting. It was also great to have a beer with Alex and Nick before heading home.

Thursday I was feeling very tired after school and then work but Janus was cooking for me so I was very lucky. It was a nice meal and nice company =)

Friday we stayed late at school as we had to present the design work for our assignment Monday. I had to leave at 5:30 though and rush home to get ready to go to our work's Operations dinner. I thought it was going to be a quiet dinner but was very nicely surprised to have bubbly waiting for us at Park and lots of people! Dinner was really nice and it was great to catch up with so many work friends. But I had promised the guys I would be back for J Day party at school and was bike on my bike to school. I tried one of the Tuborg xmas beers but it tasted pretty gross so stuck to the normal ones and had a very fun drunken night with the boys.

Dancing on the bar, again.. at the school J Day party

Needless to say I slept for a lot of Saturday. Then I was off to Pirita's place for yummy Indian dinner and some wines with her and Sarah. It was really great to catch up with the girls and the next thing time had flown by and it was 2:30am.

Sunday morning I woke up and realised it was early enough to call home, yah! had a lovely chat to James and Mum then it was time to try to sort out how I was going to do all the laundry.. The machines in the apartments I was not able to use for some reason so I walked with 3 loads of washing through the streets in the rain trying to find a laundromat. Once I found one it was looking like a big mission to work out what to do so I asked a guy and he very nicely showed me what to do. Wow it was expensive to, so he lent me some coins and I had to go for a walk to a shop to get some more. A couple of hours and around 90 kroner later I walked back home with all the clean washing hoping I never have to do that again. Then it was time to get ready to meet Kat and go to Fat Freddys Drop! I cycled all the way to Valby and it was a nice change than going through the city. The buildings were beautiful but I couldn't look too much as it was dark and slippery so had to concentrate. We had a beer at her friends before biking to Vega for the concert. We got right up the front and it was a great show. I was also impressed with the audience, there were a lot of people and everyone dancing. There are definitely some beautiful looking people in Copenhagen. It was tempting to go for a drink after the concert but as I had to be at school at 8am this morning I sensibly biked home.

This morning I slept through my alarm though and didn't wake up till 8:20. I quickly got ready and went to school to help finish our design to present to the teachers. We hurriedly printed what we had done and went down to the ferry room to present. It was a great surprise when the teachers loved what we had done. Considering how little we had worked it was not expected but with a great poster by Sune and some great group effort for the logo & business cards design it turned out pretty well. Once again though it was hard to hear some of the other presentations and now it is time to work hard to get our podcast and website made for Friday.

So actually I should go do some work now before tucking up into my bed, damn I am sooo looking forward to that =)
