17/12/99-18/1/00: Sorry about the wait. Now you will get the low down on my vacation. Up untill christmas I slept most of the time. But on Christmas eve we ate lots. We ate goose and like 13 differnt types of greens. When we decided to open presents we had to sing and dance around the tree. It was quite interesting. I got kinda homesick so I left the room for a few minutes. We opened presents. Its pretty cool how they set up the tree. They actually have lit candles on it. I called my parents for a few minutes. Christmas morning we had a christmas lunch with all the family. We ate lots of good food. now on to new years. My class and another class had a party at a school. There were lots of people there and we were dressed up in tuxes and the girls in dresses. It was very fun. We had lots of fireworks and the sky looked like tahoe on the 4th. We partied all night to celebrate 2000. School started on the 5th. Its kinda weird to start school in the middle of the week but its normal. My parents and my sister came to visit me last week. We had lots of fun and we visited my friend Ann for a day in Århus. She showed us around the clothing company where she works as a disigner. The next day we visited the Bang & Olfsen factory in my town. It is the coolest building I have ever been in. On the weekend we went into Copenhagen for a few days. We walked around and saw the city. On Monday I had to say goodbye. It was sad. But I am sill here for another 5 monthes so I will miss them. bye

3\11\99-15\11\99: Hello Everybody!! Sorry I didnt update last week. I was busy. Went to school as usual. I am playing handball on tuesdays and fridays. I think I might start boxing soon also. The first weekend was great. The school hosted a party for us. Some of my friends and I went to town to a place where we played live music. We were there from 2 til 7 just jamming. Then we went to the party where they had a great band. We just sat around and socialized and danced and stuff. After the school party was over we went to town because Tuborg was giving away the free Christmas drinks. The rest of the weekend I played with Klaus. The next weekend on friday I sat around with Klaus and some of his friends. Then on saturday I went to a birthday party which turned out to be really fun. Not much else happened except for I got to clean my room. I talked to Heather on the internet because I was onlne when she was. Anyway, Ceao

27\10\99-2\11\99: Alright. I went to school as normal this week but on friday I left to go to Holbæk. The former exchange students from Denmark threw us a giant party for holoween. There were 170 of us at the event and we stayed at on of the schools in the town. Friday night we turned the place into a disco and partyed all night. The next day we got up and went to town to get costumes or whatever else we needed. When we got back we had a big rugby game with all the aussies and kiwis. It was fun. That night we went to a Rotary meeting and ate dinner with the Rotarians. Then we had some entertainmanet and the Rotarians left and we had a giant party. Nobody slept. Yesterday was monday and me and the school band had to give a concert. It was great. Too many little kids runnung around though. Untill next week.

12\10\99-26\10\99: I had the last week off of school so I didnt have a chance to update my page. I will do it now. I went to a party last friday. It was all the guys from my class. We had lots of fun then we went to town. During the week I mostly slept and wrote letters. I got on to the internet once becase my host brother was at a computer party. I went to a bowling tournament on that sunday with one of my danish friends Ann. I have known her for a long time. We had a blast. That bassically all that happened. I will have alot to write on next week becase I have a big get together with all the Rotary Exchange Students this weekend. Later

6\10\99-12\10\99: Not much happened this week. On Thursday and Friday I was at a music camp. It was fun. We just basically jammed all of Thursday until late that night then on Friday we played in the morning then we went home. Monday I was sick. I had my last soccer practice Tuesday and I start handball next week. It is not the handball we play on the playgrounds in the U.S. but it is like water polo but on a basketball court. (No swimming or horses) Thats about it. I might meet up with my friend Ann this weekend. Next week we dont have school. I get to sleep. Peace out

14\9\99-5\10\99: I finally got my webpage back up at this address so I am pretty happy. Over these 20 days I have been really busy. School is still hard and the classes are even harder to follow because they are in Danish. I am coming along with the language though. The first weekend of these 20 days was wild. On that friday there was a big party at the school. It was like a school dance but there was a live band and a bar. It was really fun. That saturday one of my classmates held a party for our class. It was cool. We had a really good time. The next week we went to school (as we usually do during the week), I had a soccer scrimage against the older club team ( I am in u-16 and we played the u-19 team) We were winning 5 to 2 on the big field but it got dark so we had to move to a smaller field with lights. They were much bigger than us so we got run down 6 to 5. That weekend my host brother had his birthday party. Lots of his friends were there and I will put some of the pictures up when I get them developed. Last week, school, as usual, soccer, and on friday the school had sports day and my friends Janus, Bo and I had to do funk dance. We were the only guys so it was kind of embarassing. That weekend I went bowling and to town with my host brother and his friends. Untill next time. Later

 

6\9\99-13\9\99: Well I went to school as usual. The classes are hard. Calculus and 2nd year physics. On the weekend I went to a district camp with about the other 20 of the Rotary students in my district. We had a great time. I got to meet up with the great bisket (Ryan from Canada) and some other friends. Lots of Aussies and Brasilians I hadn't met before. We stayed up late and had some fun. I will finally get some more pictures up today. Hope you all are having fun. Love you.
