Côte d'Azur

Right now I'm in the south of France .. It's soooo hot here.
We arrived yesterday, after being delayed 1 hour due to technical problems with our silly little plane. Yes, TECHNICAL problems. The worst thing is that the pilot didn't even tell us what was wrong. I hate it when they don't tell you. So right about now, I take back most of what I said about not being afraid of flying. Cause as soon as I saw the tiny little Lufthansa plane we were flying in, I started shaking. You could barely stand up in it. And I REALLY hate small planes. So anyway, after an hour of waiting, we took off. The whole trip was fine until we were over the alpes. Then the plane really started shaking. And later when we were starting our descend to Nice, the plane was jumping up and down, shaking violently and dropping in airholes. It was SO scary. And I wasn't the only one who thought so. Everyone in the plane was quiet, they just sat and looked out of the windows. Luckily it got a bit better - and we landed safely. But god, do I hate small planes. Even more after yesterday.

Last night I could hardly sleep. It was unbearably hot. But at 1-ish I finally passed out. And then I woke at about 8 today, followed by breakfast .. Then we went to town. We've rented this fabulous cabriolet. It's sooo fun to drive in. And now we're back at the house, so I'll probably make my way down to the pool in a bit.
The rest of the day I'm probably just going to relaaaax ..

I <3 Holiday

France tomorrow!

Hey ppls ..

Tomorrow I am going to the south of France for a week .. I'm looking forward, as I have done the past year it's been planned .. But there is one thing I would rather spend my time d0ing .. Or rather, one person. There's this absolutely amazing guy .. And even though the plan was that I was going to spend the most of my summer with him, it didn't really turn out that way. I was travelling, then I got sick .. Now I'm travelling again, and then he is travelling. The worst thing is that he lives so far away. I miss him all the time. But at least I have something to look forward to - I'm seeing him later in August (:

Today I've seen my best friend, Julie. I haven't seen her for almost an entire year, so I've really missed her. But it was great seeing her. She just bought a chihuahua puppy a few weeks ago, and it is SO cute. Now Logan has someone to play with.

I also applied for a job today .. I was in town, and I came by the cinema. They've rebuilt the whole thing, and it actually looks pretty civilized now .. Instead of ONE tiny packed-up counter, with ONE person selling tickets, they've made it all modern, with a large counter and three staff. Anyway, I thought it would be a great place to work, since I live literally a stone's throw away. When I got home, I started writing an application so I could email it to them. I found it quite tricky, cause I've never ever applied for a job before. Anyway, I think it was quite convincing, so let's see what they say.

Anywaaaay, now I'll go back to playing Traveler IQ Challenge on Facebook .. I've gone from IQ 94 to 100 .. And I really want to have the topscore of all of my friends - tonight. So I've got some way to go ..

As I said, I'm off to France tomorrow afternoon .. Luckily I have wireless internet at the place I'm staying!!

Trisha Yearwood - For Only You ..

I'll give my love
To only you
To no one else
It's for only you

You are the world to me
And you will always be
The one who's oh so beautiful
My love will always stay with you

I will be yours, for all of time
And thank the Lord, that you are mine
For with each breath I take,
I know my love is safe
In the arms of one so wonderful
As long as I can dream, I'll dream for two
For my love is for only you

With each breath I take, I know my love is safe
In the arms of one so wonderful
As long as I can dream, I'll dream for two
For my love is for only you..

Sick as a dog.

I suppose coming home to the cold weather in Denmark has been bad for my health. I've had bad headaches, a terrible sore throat and fever since monday. The last year I've been plagued by streptococcus - a bacterial infection - in my throat, and once as an ear infection. So I'm really hoping it's not that again. Even though it most likely is (I kinda know what it feels like now, after having it a billion times).
Anyway, other than that I've been doing absolutely nothing for a weak. Haven't even been outside. Just been lying in my bed, watching tv. Yaaaay, fun summer holiday. Actually no, I've had plans since monday, so I'm really annoyed. And sad :( .

Nothing worse than a lie.

As written above, I don't think there is anything worse than a lie. Particularly being lied to your face. I thought I would write all this down, to get my frustation out, cause it REALLY frustrates me. And one of the worst things is being able to detect the lie. I am luckily/unluckily very good at that. I know when people lie to me, but that doesn't make the situation better. Later when you find that what you believed to be the truth, just is a big fat lie, it really hurts. I would much rather just hear the truth. And yes, that might hurt too, but not as much as discovering that it was a lie all along.

I know, this may be written in a confusing way .. But my opinion is out there somewhere :b
But seriously, why do people do it? I never lie if it's unnecessary, and you know why? Because I think things through in my head .. Always. Sometimes too much .. Anyway, I always think "If this was me, I would prefer to hear the truth". So, basically, I wouldn't do or say anything to anybody, if I wouldn't like it myself.
Mostly I see it as a good thing, but other times I really wish I could break out of it. The problem is, I just hate making people feel bad. Cause I've been put down, been humiliated, been made fun of, been lied to etc. etc. many times, so of course I know what it feels like. And I would never wish for me to cause other people to feel the same way. I guess that's why.

I just wish I could understand ..
What can bring people to cause such pain to others by lying? And is lying ever justified?
Why not just tell the truth?

Sex and the City

Sex and the City - My best friend ..
It has, by far, got to be the best series in the world. Pretty much everyone can relate to at least one of the characters, which makes it even more exciting.
I love the fact that the episodes show situations average people find themselves in every day. It lightens the pressure, to know that it's not just you. And i absolutely looove Carries "quotes", when she writes on the computer .. It sort of leaves you wondering.
My favorite character is obviously Carrie. She's down to earth, stylish and fabulous .. Who wouldn't want to be like her? The situations she finds herself in when it comes to her lovelife, have left me laughing, crying and wanting more. I can't wait for the second film to come out! (:

Now I'm going to jump into bed, and watch some Sex and the City. I'll probably fall asleep in no time. I only got about 3 hours sleep last night.

Goodnight!

Back in Denmark

Hey ..

After a loooong morning, I'm back home. I got up at around 05:00, and the plane left at 07:25. The plane trip went fine .. I was a bit shaky during take-off though, it was quite windy over Mallorca. Other than that, I'm still not that frightened of flying anymore (: . Anyway, we landed in Hamburg a bit before 10:00, so I was home at 12:00 (: Since then, I've just been relaxing, watching some Sex and the City, and repacking - I'm leaving for our summerhouse, which is 45 min north of Copenhagen, tomorrow at around noon .. Talk about a stressful program, I've barely just got home.
After about two weeks in the summerhouse, I'm off to the south of France with my entire family for a week. My parents are celebrating their 25th wedding anniversary, so they've invited me, my 3 sisters and their boyfriends. I'm looking forward!

Wanna hear something ironic? I'm actually seriously considering becoming a stewardess when I'm old enough .. I mean, like a temporary job. Later on I'm hoping to become a lawyer (after that 5-6-7 year education it takes).
It just seems like the perfect job for me. I've always said I wanted a job where I could travel, and I kind of like the thought of a new destination every time. The only .. quite big problem though, is of course that I'm still not 100% comfortable with flying. But we'll see. It's definitely an option for now.

Au revoir!

Another day in the sun

Hola!

Today has been a very nice and relaxing day. I slept till about 13:00 o'clock, and then I went out to lunch with my parents at our local golfclub in Andratx, where they have this great restaurant. The rest of the day was spent by the pool, where I spoke a bit with our neighbours who also are danish.

One thing I don't understand, is why there are so many germans on the island. There are almost more germans than spanish people. When I walk through town, it's as if the germans have taken over there too (no offence). Over half of the restaurants and shops have german names .. Even all the signs are in german. And spanish of course. Sometimes english too. But I guess the spanish locals don't really mind, since their income from tourism probably relies on the germans.
Lately I've actually heard quite a few danes too, more than last summer at least. And of course we have the good ol' english people .. Who are the biggest sponsors of the restaurants and pubs, with all their eating and drinking - don't take it personally :D.

Anyway, my day has been good. Later on I'll go down to the pool for my traditional evening swim. I like it in the evening, cause the water is a lot warmer.
Tomorrow I don't know what I'll be doing .. It's my last day here, so I guess I'll just be lying by the pool, getting even more tan 8D .. Aww, I'm missing my sunglass/cool smiley :o

Adios amigos ..

Mallorca - La perla mediterránea

Hey!

Right now I am on the spanish island Mallorca. I just love it here. The atmosphere, the beaches, the weather - Almost everything about Mallorca is great. The only downside is that hardly any locals speak english. You would of thought they did when it's such a tourist hotspot, huh?
Anyway, I'm enjoying my summerholiday .. But I'm sure it'll be over before I know it.

I discovered something today .. I mean, anybody who knows me, knows that I'm terrified of flying.. But I'm actually not that bad anymore. When I was flying down here, I didn't think a whole lot about it. Just sat back, relaxed and watched some Sex and the City on my Mac. Usually under take-off, I would sit and hold tightly on to both armrests, while looking alternately out of the window, and at other people + stewardesses (just to see their reaction). Then under the trip, I would stare out of the window, and then look at the stewardesses every time I felt something I didn't think was right, or heard noises - When I flew to Cape Town 2 years ago, I did nothing but sit nervously and look out of the window the entire 12 hours it took. Landing I won't even mention. I know, I am terrible. But I mean, it's about time I overcome my fear .. I fly so often, that I have about 3 frequent flyer cards.



Fear of flying is a strange thing. Cause even though planecrashes are so rare when you think of the statistics, and the amount of planes taking off/landing every single day, you can't help but feel so helpless when you're suspended in a metal tube, 36 thousand feet in the air.
I guess you either are, or aren't afraid .. or what?
