        21/10/09
        Due to the fact that the university I attend is about 100 km away from my home I have become a commuter.
        I take the train to Copenhagen and back home at very different times of the day.

        I know that I have posted stuff about these girls before... at least on facebook.
        I just cannot stress how absolutely fabulous they are.
        I saw them live last night at the Dexter in Odense and they sound better live than on CD. They totally blew me away.

        29/09/09
        Thanks to wonderful planning by the University of Copenhagen I will not be going to classes before February. In stead I will be working on my bachelor project. I have chosen a very nerdy subject.

        These are three girls from Sweden, called Baskery. Yes, Sweden. They rock and will be in Odense in October at Dexter. There is no way I'm missing that.

        I always enjoy springtime when flowers open for the first time.
        I love looking at the snow falling slowly.

        But there is one moment I love most of all. To me there is nothing like a good thunderstorm. I love the sound of thunder and I am always completely awestruck when lightning jump
