Video Gamer

So it snowed a lot two days ago and there was like 3 inches of snow. There's a little slope to the side of the bike path that I take to the train station every day, and chunks of ice and snow are scattered on the path now. Coming back from the station, I felt like a Mario character or something. I dodged all the little chunks of snow, curving left, then right, then right again, and then another left. Then I came upon this HUGE one that was cut like a raw diamond or something. I went around it to the right, but I cut it really close. The front wheel didn't hit the chunk, but I forgot about my foot and pedal and I almost flew off the bike. I screamed a little bit, and there was another biker on the street, and he looked at me weird. But whatever- I didn't fall and that's all that matters. But I was laughing because I really felt like a video game character or something.

I bought Skippy Crunchy Peanut Butter today at the Americana Store. It was 50 kr. A little less than 10 dollars. I know wth. Oh well. Time to make another pb and j sandwich

Oh yea it's Copenhagen Fashion Week. There's even more tall beautiful people in the streets now.

Ugh. I just had my host dad's version of Korean food. It was barbeque-flavored chicken in stirfry with noodles and Chop Suey sauce. A meal completely of sodium.. I feel so nasty. And they got sushi from the supermarket, you know the type that's ready to eat in the platters. It's nothing like the real thing-- at least at home... and since Danes eat with fork and knife in hand at all times, I cut my not-really-tuna sushi and ate the small thing in 3 smaller pieces. I'm not writing this to complain-- just want to note all the differences. It's so weird how the States and Denmark - anywhere - can have common grounds/themes, but the way they carry out things are yet so different. But now I REALLY want Korean food :(

I like how the korean food is decidedly....Chinese....

Nothing like being away from home to make you miss the good food. I would've paid good money to see you do the Mario run.

You should've gotten to the top and screamed at the top of your lungs "GG ICE BUT NOT THIS TIME"

Or something cool...

MMM SODIUM. Omg, you referenced Mario! Lawrence and Brenden are influencing you too much!
