is the blog still alive?

after a longer hiatus i am back. i'll give a short recap of my life for those who actually read this and havent talked to me for a while. as always in bullet form with some pictures.

i managed to get around this summer. i am pretty proud of my efforts. i am also happy for every one of you that i saw.

• first i hit up norway - saw the sunnivator and her amazing family. her family is really hospitable always worth a visit, sunniva is pretty nice too. i brought my brother (alx) a long, he is a norway lover - he is probably going to study there.
  

• second was some small country (which is the whipping boy of group f in euro quals.), liechtenstein. seeing as we (dad, alx and i) drove from denland to italy, we needed to stay somewhere on the way. bettina was nice enough to show the whole country. it is a pretty cool sight, definately worth a visit. bettinas family is pretty nice too.

• i would like to make this statement: i love italy. this is despite all the obvious faults the italians have - which actually is a part of the amazing charm of this country. my italian is horrible, i understand a few words and people understand a few of my words. saw some bahais, all were late - meaning i had to stand and look pretty lost in both siena and bologna. they have nice train stations. thanks.
  
• my family and friends of the family showed up from all over the western hemisphere to celebrate my parents collective 100th birthday for a week. which was awesome.

• lastly i managed to go home to greenland and see the mountains and enjoy the rain. when it doesnt rain nuuk is one of the most amazing cities and everything comes alive. people everywhere smiling and enjoying it. i also managed to become quite proficient at playing wii golf and tennis. might have to invest in one of those...
  

i would recommend that everyone who likes rap, to listen to kanye's new cd "graduation". good cd, still trying to find a favorite song on there and decipher the lyrics. but i like "good morning", "good life" "homecoming" and "the glory". i am not keen on the song with mos def "drunk & hot girls" and "stronger" lives on the strength of the sample from daft punk (everyone who has slept on daft punk's "discovery" should listen to that cd immidiately)


in other news i am still in århus studying political science. i have heard this will be a hard semester, we have 3 courses: 2 mandatory, policy analysis and public management. and i am taking a course about cost-benefit analysis as a scientific phenomenon (we will be reading a book called "global crisis, global solutions"). the last course will be interesting, the first course is ok too. public management is not that interesting. at least i will be able to prioritize between global issues when i am done with this semester.

thats all for now.
