I would first like to state that DANES ARE WILD BRUH!! One minute I'm walking through a nice park next I am witnessing a public sacrifice of a fucking deer!!!! Okay maybe it wasn't a sacrifice but might as well have been one because that shit was crazy. Apparently it's normal to skin animals in public here. The guy started at the legs and broke dem lil thangs in half and when I heard that crunch of the bone ooooooo I was shook. He really brought that bone all the way besides his microphone so that it would be nice a loud for everyone to hear. Oh did I mention this was a kids event?!?! Like 5-12 year olds were all crowding around this man, mesmerized by each stroke of that knife on the deer. They even volunteered to try pull the skin off, I was even more shooketh. Next the man hooked the back 2 legs to a kind of hanger and swung that shit up. Then he sliced it right down the middle like slicing some cake and legit SHIT started falling out of the deer. I repeat SHIT like little pellets of SHIT. After he just stuck his whole hand in that bitch and yanked out all its guts and glory. It was like an anatomy class, you got the liver and the stomach and the small and big intestines, then the guy had its heart and was just squeezing that shit. Just when I thought I couldn't get more shook-en, he pulled out its lungs and blew into its pipes to inflate that shit up. I mean at least it had healthy lungs because that shit was pink af but the fact that the guy put his mouth to it had me screechin. Next he just chopped off the head and still had it attached to the skin bc I guess he was gonna make a nice little floor piece out of it. When all of this was done, he invited the audience to come up and touch and feel the skinless, gutless deer and you bet your ass I was outa there.
MOM IM NOT A LOSER!! Lowkey was loser during the first week tbh because Idk how to interact with annoying Americans in Europe. I'm just trynna stay lowkey and blend with the locals ya feel? I guess walking in the bike lane probably is a dead give away that I'm not from here... opps. Any who back to my friend(s) (depends on the situation) Her name in Ally and she's from Berkeley! Way too reach out to people not from the Bay am I right?? She went to Berkeley high and swims for her college team! We actually did Oakland Undercurrents together at the same time but we both don't remember each other. Funny how things work. But we live in the same homestay network and sometimes take the train in together to classes. We also explored cope and and went up the round tower! She seems like a homie so will let you know how things go. Second friend I made is a wild child. Like at first I did not expect that we would be friends since she's super out going and loud and funny.... hm actually maybe we were meant to be friends. LOL but she is the most expressive person and really gets into telling stories and overall has a great personality and is a good time! Her name is Emily and she's from Pittsburg and goes to Tulane (Jewlane) I mean fitting since she is Jewish. I've probably spent most of my time with her and we've had a bomb ass time together. Went to Christiania and got high off some candies. Went to a food festival where we literally witnessed a deer get dismantled/slaughtered/skinned but I will explain in more detail in another post this one is about my friends! We went out to the bars and clubs and had a bomb ass time. Also met an asian guy named Tim but only for that night tho... We literally loitered in a 7/11 for an hour at like 2 in the morning just eating Taquitos. And when I say balls I mean some SAGGY ASS HAIRY BALLZ!! He was in this community called Christiania which is in Copenhagen. He just walked out of a bath house where men and women can bathe together LITT RIGHT? Christiania is basically this small city of people who don't pay taxes to the government which is crazy because everything here has a 50% tax. The people here are hippies and don't give a fuk bout anyone else and just walk around without shoes and apparently butt naked. They also sell marijuana in stalls all over the place, it was crazy. Might be returning there tbh. They also have cool murals everywhere and trippy houses that are all self built. Heres an article giving the history of this place cause I don't feel like typing it all out. theculturetrip.com/europe/denmark/articles/christiania-13-things-to-know-about-copenhagens-hippie-free-town/ Danish words of the day
It is currently 5:37am I find myself wide awake watching the light creep through my window with the early sun rises here in Denmark. I will be living in a homestay in the Lyngby area (Virum) which is about 25 minutes out of Copenhagen, where I will be taking my classes. My host family is pretty cool to say the least. My host mom Rikke, is a public school principal and my host dad Morten, works for a pharmaceutical company that produces insulin. They have 2 daughters Maja who is 14 and Lina 16, and let me tell you they are a VERY VERY TALL family. Even the counters in their home are tall, but their home is so beautiful. Maja is on the national basketball team here and I think Lina also plays. Both their parents played professionally growing up so I guess it runs in the family. I arrived yesterday into CPH and the DIS representatives directed us to the Carlion hotel where we met with all the other students and waited for our host family to pick us up. After my family picked me up we went to a bakery and had some delicious chocolate cake! I unpacked everything in my room (which is massive) and like very edgy idk I feel like a writer in here. Later we went for a walk around the neighborhood, theres a lake near by and a path around it, I may run around it to stay fit because the way its looking imma be eating goood here. Then we saw Maja's school and the train station where I will be going to get to school. After the walk ya girl was feeling tired so ju know i took a little nap before dinner. Dinner was nice had some roasted puffy potatoes (I should probably learn the name of it bc that shit was BOMB) There was some chicken and like basically finger food that you dipped in this yogurt dip. Was an interesting experience but good thing I eat everything. Also had a glass of rose with my meal ;). Then I kid you not ya girl went to bed at 8:30pm. DANISH WORDS OF THE WEEK
