The Life and Chimes of Jackie

So I got drunk for the first time the other day. Me and my friend Jenny (Yenny, cause she's from Finland) walked down to this campus grocery store and picked up a bottle of Turkish sweet vodka or something. It's black and extremely similar to Jagermeister. So, I had about 3 . . . or 6 swigs of that. And then I bought some pink grapefruit mentos (delicious) and some chocolate filled digestives (equally delicious) as chasers. haha. Then my international group made a plate for dinner. We made some onion and tomato thing, but then all the int'l groups got together and everybody served their platters. There was chicken, salad, rolls, ummm... i can't remember cause I was real drunk by then. Basically because I also had a Danish beer (Tuborg's) and then there was this really sweet white wine (like candy) served with dinner and I had two glasses. Then we all went to this dance floor thing on campus and danced for a while, but you know how I get ancy when I'm drunk (can't stay in one place for too long) so we went to the Kellar bar below the equivalent of the student Union (called building 101) and had some pie and another beer. Then I'm like , "Ok, I'm drunk. I'm leaving." So Nikolai walked me to the bus stop and I too the bus and then walked home by myself.

On my walk home, I had to go to the bathroom, and so I just squatted along the road. Well, I squatted against some nettles or something, and that didn't feel very good. So I wiped with a tennis ball I had found in the bar, sprinted home (not for any good reason, just because), and I passed out. When I woke up, I no longer felt the sting of the plant, so that was good.

This morning I went running, for about 4.5 miles round trip. But I guess if I would have ran for 5 or 10 more minutes in one direction, I would have ran to the sea. Cool, huh?! Right now I'm in a databar on Campus. Lindsay and I walked here (It's a 4 kilometer walk) and we'll prolly walk back too. But it's a nice day outside. Mid 60s so, you know, perfect weather.

Tomorrow I'm going into town to get a bike for 500k. (divide by 6 to get dollars). It's pretty cheap. But then I've gotta buy a bike lock and bike lights, which may be sort of expensive. But that's how everybody gets around here, and I'm super excited for that.

Next Friday, Lindsay and I are taking a bus tour to Sweden all day. And maybe the next day into Copenhagen. I've got some really good pictures of my trip, but since I don't have internet in my room yet (I'm in a databar on campus) I can't put them up. I'll have to give a different photo album, though, since I'll probably let everybody see the pics, but I don't want my parents seeing the pics I have up already.

Anywho... Ashley you're going to have a blast when you come here, and you are SOOOOO lucky I came here first. I'm gonna have tons of shit to sell for dirt cheap and give to you and Talia.

Øk, homes, Pæce out.
