Dagen der gik // The day that passed

Vil lade billederne tale for dem selv, da jeg er tomme for ord.

I'll let the pictures speak for themselves.

Skt. Hans // Sct. Hans

Så har jeg endelig sommeferie! Fik tilfredsstillende resultater til mine eksaminer, og nu skal jeg bare slappe af og arbejde. I lørdags var jeg ned på Marielyst, for at se heksen brænde. Dog fik jeg først set bålet kl 02 om natten, og så ædru var jeg dog ikke. Vi havde en rigtig god aften og vejret var perfekt!

 Finally I have summer vacation. Last Saturday we went to Marielyst to see the witch burn. We had a great night.

Regn // Rain

Der kom lige en byge forbi imorges, og jeg valgte at tage disse billeder. Håber i kan lide dem.

A quick shower passed by this morning and I went out and took some pictures. Hope you like them.

Eksamenslæsning & covers // Exam studying & covers

Jeg sidder her og knokler røven ud af bukserne med eksamenslæsning. Imorgen skal jeg op i mundtlig billedkunst, og det er bestemt ikke noget jeg glæder mig til. Udover det, så elsker jeg at kigge rundt på Youtube og lytte til covers af gode sange. Det er dog ikke lige altid, at man får fat i de gode! Jeg har aldrig lyttet til covers, som har været bedre end den originale version af sangen, meeeeen det har ændret sig her på det sidste. Jeg har fundet nogen rimlige gode covers, og dem bliver jeg nødt til at dele med jer. Det er noget musik jeg bestemt kan læse til! Håber i nyder dem.

I'm sitting here and studying my ass off. Tomorrow I have an oral exam in Art class and it's something I'm not looking forward too. Other than that, I've been looking around Youtube to hear covers of some good songs. Althoug you don't always find the good ones. I've never listened to covers better than the original song, but that has changed lately. I've found really good covers and i have to share them with you. It's music I can study to! Hope you enjoy.

Berlin del 2 // Berlin part 2

Her får i et par billeder fra turen til Berlin. Man kan virkelig se forskellen på det gamle arkitektur og det moderne.

Here you have some pictures from my trip to Berlin. You can really see the difference between the old architecture and the modern.

Fars dag // Fathers day

Far . Mig . Lillebror . Farfar // Father . Me. Little brother . Grandfather

Nu sidder jeg her og ved ikke hvordan jeg skal få det ud. Ja, det er jo fars dag, og jeg burde ønske alle fædre tillykke, men vil gerne sige et part ting først. Jeg har 2 fædre i mit liv. Jeg har min danske far, Jan, og min rigtige far, Ricardo. Ja, jeg hedder det samme som min far. Til dem kan jeg ikke andet end at sige tak for alle de oplevelser vi har haft sammen! Men i år er der et tomt rum i mit hjerte. For to måneder siden mistede jeg min farfar. En 65-årige fyr der var altid frisk på alt. Især de kanoture der. Det kom som et kæmpe chok da det skete. Ingen var forberedt på det. Jeg var på vej hjem til Danmark da det skete, og da jeg endelig kom ind på mit værelse i Danmark, fik jeg at vide, at min farfar havde fået et hjertestop. Jeg vendte straks tilbage til Puerto Rico for at være sammen med min familie. Det var første gang jeg så min far græde. Det var første gang jeg kom hjem til min farmor uden at få et kram fra farfar. Stadig idag står jeg op og kan ikke forstå, at han er borte. En del af mig vil ikke indse det, men den anden del vil videre. Aftenen jeg kom til Puerto Rico kom min farmor over til mig og gav mig et stykke papir i hånden. Det papir havde min farfar i hænderne da han døde. Han var på vej i kirke, da han faldt om ude på vejen. På papiret stod der alle de ting han ville takke gud for, og de ting han ville sige til ham. Og nummer 5 var "Tak for at have givet mig oplevelsen af, at være farfar. Bedre børnebørn kunne man ikke ønske sig. De gør mig stolt!" Kære farfar, fra nu af skal jeg nok sørge for, at du forbliver stolt! I mit hjerte er du gemt forevigt, og jeg takker gud for, at havde givet mig muligheden for at være sammen med dig ugen før du gik fra os. Jeg elsker dig! 

I'm seating here and I don't know how to say this. Yes it's fathers day and I should congratulate every single dad out there, but first I want to say something. I have to fathers in my life. My danish father, Jan, and my real father, Ricardo. Yes, I have the same name as my dad. They deserve a big thank you for all of the good times I've had with them. But this year there's an empty space in my heart. Just 2 months ago I lost my grandfather. A 65 year young man who was ready to do anything! Especially those canoe trips. It came as a huge surprise for us all. Nobody was expecting it. I was actually on my way back to Denmark, and when I got into my room and heard the news, I jumped on a plane back to be with my family. It was the first time I saw my father cry. It was the first time I stepped in my grandparents house and not getting a hug from my grandfather. Still today I wake up and can't understand that you're gone. A part of me wants to not believe it, but another part wants to move on. The night I got to Puerto Rico my grandmother put a piece of paper in my hands. She told me that my grandfather had it in his hands when he passed away. He was on his way to church when he suffered from a heart attack. On the paper he had written the things he wanted to thank God for, and the things he wanted to say to him. And number 5 said "Thank you for giving me the opportunity to be a grandfather. I have the best grandchildren you could ask for. They make me proud." Dear grandpa' from now on I'm gonna make sure that you stay proud. You'll always be with me in my heart, and I thank God for have given me the privilege to talk to you a week before you passed away. I love you!

Musik til tømmermændende // Music for the hangover

  

   

  

Dette indlæg siger sig selv. Jeg har tømmermænd, og har brug for chill musik til ørene. Derfor har jeg samlet de bedste sange i øjeblikket. I må fortsat have en rigtig god dag og nyd lige det gode vejr!

This post really speaks for itself. I have a hangover and I need chill music for the ears. Therefor I have collected the best songs of the moment. Keep having a good day and enjoy the weather!

Spisning med udsigt // Dinner with a view

Kan hermed præsentere jer TV Tårnet. Den ligger i centrum af Alexanderplatz, og er den højeste bygning i hele Berlin. Jeg troede at man kun kunne komme deroppe for at se Berlin, men jeg havde ingen idé om, at man kunne spise der. Det bedste ved hele oplevelsen var at selve restauranten roteret rundt. Vi så hele Berlin fra alle sider på ca. 30 minutter mens vi spiste. Vi var 207 meter oppe i luften, så vi kunne se hele byen og så var det endda godt vejr! Servicen er lidt langsom i restauranten, og den var ikke engang fyldt op. I det hele taget var maden okay. Jeg forventet helt vild gourmet mad, efter at have set priserne, men det skuffede lidt, synes jeg. Jeg bestilte kyllingebryst i rødvinssauce, men det var som om kyllingen havde ligget i fryseren, og at de så havde sat den i microovnen. Men bare at dreje rundt deroppe var hele turen værd, og nej, man bliver ikke svimmel af det, da du roterer rigtig langsomt.


Here I present you the TV Tower. It's in the center of Alexanderplatz and it's the tallest building in Berlin. I only thought you could go up there to see Berlin, but I had no idea that you could actually eat there. The best part of the experience was that the restaurant rotated. We saw Berlin from all sides in around 30 minutes from our table. We were 207 meters up in the air, so we had a perfect view of the city and to make it even better, the weather was perfect. The service in the restaurant was a bit slow and the restaurant wasn't even full. I expected really gourmet food after seeing those prices, but I was a bit disappointed. I ordered a chicken breast in redwine sauce, but it was as if the chicken had been in the freezer and the put it in the microwave. But just to rotate up in the air while eating was totally worth the price. And no, you don't get dizzy because you rotate very slow.

Berlin kalder // Berlin is calling

Så er jeg på den igen. Kufferten blev pakket og turen gik til Berlin. Jeg ankom torsdag aften, og skal være her til mandag eftermiddag. Må virkelig indrømme, at jeg aldrig har været glad for Tyskland, men Berlin er noget for sig selv! Det er virkelig en fantastisk by. Jeg har været på forskellige rundvisninger på gå-ben igennem Berlin, og det er virkelig imponerende. Vi bor rigtig centralt i Berlin, faktisk lige bag Alexanderplatz, og jeg har selvfølgelig taget en del billeder, men lige nu, må i nøjes med billeder af hotel udsigten. Skal lige planlægge fremtidige indlæg omkring Berlin.

I'm at it again. The suitcase was packed and the trip went to Berlin. I got here Thursday night and I'm leaving Monday afternoon. I have to admit, Germany hasn't said anything to me before, but Berlin is something by itself. It's really an amazing city. I've been on several walking tours around Berlin, and it's really impressing. Our hotel is located really central in Berlin, behind us is Alexanderplatz and I've of course taken pictures, but for now I'm only going to post pictures of our hotel view. I have to plan future posts about Berlin.
