The Wayward Law

My love affair with the concept of a white winter wonderland here in Denmark is officially over after only one day. It started innocently enough with rare agreement between the Swedish and the Danish meteorological authorities that Denmark would get around 3-10 inches of snow in 48 hours. The reality of snow in Denmark is [...]

Ok, so in Denmark, you eat a bread that you can’t find in the US. It’s called rugbrød. It’s like pumpernickel, but it’s got seriously big seeds or kernels. Who knows how it stays together? Anyways, you put butter on it (butter goes on every piece of bread in this country; to do otherwise constitutes [...]

I put “wow” in my translator software, to see what ‘wow’ is in French, and it told me, that if I want to fool my friends into thinking I really know French, that I should use the phrase, ‘défaut de la reproduction sonore,’ to show them my French prowess and knowledge of the phrase ‘wow’. [...]

Today is a walking day. What I can’t believe is that it’s still snowing…it just keeps coming and coming…just like those damn Jehovah’s witnesses. Speaking of, there is a Kirke of Scientologi down the street from my apartment. They’re giving out free stress tests (Gratis stressprøve! Er du stresset?) . Somehow, I feel that some [...]

I went to a karaoke bar for my birthday. Who knew, before yesterday, that I would learn there is a little yellow fish in the deep blue sea that needs help?

I think that Københavns universitet is trying to make my school look bad. Every time I email them, they email me back. They’re answers are quick, detailed, on point, and finally, are the answers I was hoping for. This just won’t do. You see, I go to Golden Gate University. That’s right, the school too [...]

Is there a craigslist-type site for Kbh? I know craigslist has a Kbh site, but no one uses it. I’m thinking of spending around 5-700 US for a place. Ideally I’d like to live near København Universitet, as I abhor commutes. Since the commute will most-likely be amidst fine Danish precipitation, I’d prefer biking/walking for [...]
