Sunday

Weeelll its Sunday evening and I'm not that excited about school tomorrow, plus i have a math assignment thats due on Tuesday (uhg). I really feel lost in math,  at least i do this year. Last year i had it on "A" level which is the hardest you can get here in Denmark, but now i have it on "B" level instead. Strangely though i understood more of what happened last year, I think it all depends on the teacher and my current teacher isn't very good at explaining math in a way so that i understand it, he's also moving forward WAAAY to fast. Last year i had my current chemistry teacher as my math teacher, she didn't go too fast. But hey it could just be that the cram more stuff into the B level stuff or it could be that my brain has degenerated over the summer, anyhow i busted a nut and bought Algebra II and Calculus II for dummies when i visited the US. In those books they really break math down into "understandable" parts, or in a more advanced term, the quantify it so that even I can understand it.

Anyhow I don't plan on becoming the next Stephen Hawking, I'm going for something thats actually fun, like "FBI agent", well something thats fun and that requires me to travel a lot. I guess interpreter would fit quite well, I wouldn't exactly be the first in the family to take on the ways of the politician. I have quite an interest in law, mostly because i like being a douche bag and uphold the dumb laws, but seriously, i could see myself working with it in the future.

So now onto what i have been up to. This weekend i have been playing "Star trek Legacy", I have gone to spinning, I have over clocked my old computer and modified its battery, and i have checked out indoor climbing clubs here in Odense because I'm planning on going to it again.

On to more serious things; This morning i heard a report on the radio about the Danish Peoples Party wanting to make it harder for exchange/PhD and students in general to get into Denmark and study, but then I must ask, shouldn't all danes leaving Denmark to study have to go through the same test? Seriously, the way the danish government is heading, I suspect that Denmark might actually get kicked out of the European Union, they've already been excluded from all and any important decisions (which i can understand). Though if that happens I'm moving. The day Denmark gets kicked out of EU is the day I'm climbing back over the bacon wall (the bacon wall is a reference to the berlin wall, its the border to Sweden and many danes, at least so it seems, want to close the border to Sweden). Well I'm not staying in this country for too long anyway and I strongly doubt that i will ever move back once I've left. Just to clarify, I'm not miserable (even though it may seem so) I just don't like this country, my first impressions of this country got quite messed up too (and they are important). To be frank, there are nice danes but as far as i know Denmark as a whole is a backward thinking small country with napoleon complex.

I have lived in Denmark for 1.5 years now, currently there are three people here that i count as friends (I talk to them regularly, I trust them, and they talk to me and probably trust me). One of them is just like me, he moved here two years ago, another one is born here but he has muslim upbringing, and the last one is what could be referred to as a real dane (though i don't think her boyfriend likes me).
Son now i add it up, three minus two, oh my, that equals one! So i have acquired one danish friend over the span on 1.5 years. I know, you may think that I'm incapable of sustaining social relations with other people, but I do not believe that is the case. I have tried on numerous occasions tried to "get chummy with the locals" but in every case they have either let me down, as four of my classmates did earlier last week, or they have just ignored me afterwards and gone on with their lives like if i never existed. Last year that did have quite an effect on me, i got pretty depressed (and when I'm ready I will release parts of my diary from back then). But luckily i have friends now.

So anyhow now on to less grim stuff (and stuff that could inspire a certain english teacher who I'm fairly sure has checked this blog out). Here is one of my english assignments from last year, we where supposed to write an interview with anyone we could imagine, it was my first chance at playing video games for a purpose, i interviewed my avatar from the game i was playing. Anyway, here is my "masterpiece" xD (Its not that long, just about 700 words, but it was fun writing)


NewDC-News
By the one known as Nils
We are sitting here in the subway of Washington DC with Katherine a 94 year old wasteland survivor who has seen the what was left of DC after a devastating nuclear war between the two nations once known as China and the United states of America before things got civilized. Today she has promised to tell us the story of how she managed to get the bigots of Tenpenny Tower to let ghouls live in their small post-war settlement. Just to make it clear, ghouls were humans who had been exposed to a ghastly amount of radiation and survived, but that lead to them looking like zombies, rotting skin and so on.

It was in the year 2203, I had just finished helping my good friend Moria Brown write her “Wasteland Survival Guide” and I was out in the capital wastes wandering aimlessly with my dog; Dogmeat. We must have been lucky that day because we only met two, maybe three raider patrols, luckily I was quite handy with a sniper. But after a few hours walk and a few pauses to see if I could find any useful gear I spotted a pretty damn big tower on the horizon, and you must know that a tower of that size couldn’t possibly have survived so long without maintenance. So out of my own curiosity I waltzed over there, though when I got there the crabby guards didn’t want to let me in, but they changed their minds once I made ‘em a deal, more like a bribe... Anyhow I bribed my way through the gate and asked around to se who was the leader of the small society of upper class twits. Well I found him eventually and I spoke a bit about establishing a trade between his society and the town I was currently living in; Megaton. He said that it sounded fair, but he would only accept it on one condition; I was to take care of a group of ghouls who had been pestering him for a few months. My first thought on the matter was “heck no, I’m not going to do your dirty work” but since I had to put Megaton’s interests ahead of my own I accepted. I stayed the night at the tower and in the morning I headed out to find the old subway station that the ghouls were living in, which didn’t take to long. Once I entered the underground I almost immediately met one of their guards who was extremely skeptical to me meeting with their leader, but after a short conversation I managed to convince him that I was no threat. So I got to meet their leader who was a….well…interesting person. His name was Roy Philips and he was the meanest ghoul I think I ever met. But somehow I managed to strike a deal with him; I get him and his ghouls a residence at Tenpenny Tower and they don’t go in there, guns blazing and kill everyone. So I returned to Tenpenny tower and talked to Mr. Tenpenny, luckily I was quite good at bartering in the day and I managed to strike a deal with him; if I can convince more than 80% of the residents to let the ghouls in, he would let them in. I have to say it wasn’t very hard there were only three people who had something against having ghouls as neighbors. That was it basically, I showed Mr. Tenpenny the results and then I went down into the subway and told the ghouls that I had successfully gotten them a residence in Tenpenny Tower.
Though I remember that I came back there a week later to find that Roy Philips had murdered Mr. Tenpenny and was plotting to kill every non-ghoul in the tower. So for the safety of all the residents I killed Roy.After that I never came back to the tower so I cannot possibly say what happened after I left.


It just struck me, heres a short guide to see if I'm interested in getting to know you;
When I am interested in a new person I start off by approaching them and talking to them, through group activities and such, then when i feel a bit more secure i will eventually be a bit (or very) sarcastic and tease you to try and get an emotional response (teasing back is ideal, i like people who have humor and know their way around sarcasm), the third step is that i try to get you out to some sociable even, like a movie, a cup of coffee, or a movie evening with some other of my friends, and after that I usually just let go of the breaks and count you as a friend. Though with new people who i deem interesting enough to be worth my time things usually happen quite fast. Though if you during the course of the whole befriending ritual cross me three times (ex, i ask you out for coffee and you say ill check my calendar and then never reply, or do something like what happened with those four girls last week). If you do anything like that more than three times I will first of all get pretty mad and secondly, I will stop trying to become your friend.

So now, anyone who wants to become my friend, there's the manual, good luck.



So thats all for today folks, and i know that there are at least six of you watching, i wouldn't mind some sort of comment or sign form you that your there (Omar that includes you)
