god dag

i got to copenhagen today after an overnight flight. on the plane everything came in small, pretty packages. the television in the back of each seat included a camera from which you could see the view outside (mostly ocean). we had penne with fish on top that tasted kind of like lox. the couple next to me drank four or five bottles of complimentary wine and some little ones of liquor between them. stereotypes about scandinavia confirmed: intelligent design, weird smoked fish, alcoholism.

then we had orientation and i went home with my danish roommate. she lives in a house with her family but we have our own floor. she likes the simpsons and pimp my ride (both come on the television with danish subtitles, along with a bunch of horrible us sitcoms they must only show during the day in the states). i have a balcony, but i probably won't spend much time in it until it's less freezing out. we had pizza for dinner, and i think i ate more meat-topped pizza tonight than in my entire life. there was ham and mushroom, pepperoni, and kebab. you can also get pastrami. how are these people so thin. probably because they smoke everywhere.

favorite kind of coffee is one word here: favoritkaffe.

all in all i like denmark.
