merry christmas, friends!
i am in odense denmark staying with my aunt, uncle, and three cousins [ages 26, 15, 14]. all i do here is sleep, eat, play cards, and laugh. we are all clowns. my uncle almost recieved a full outfit for christmas. a horn comb [from me], a jumper, a shirt, and a pair of socks. he is missing pants and shoes. he threatened to change into his new outfit. my cousin, jan, got two blenders, one from his parents and the other from a friend. they are both exactly the same. he loves to make smoothies. we went to see australia tonight. has anyone seen it? what is the reaction at home? what do indigenious australians think about it? i pretty much cried the whole way through and really loved it. i cannot tell if it is my homesickness talking or not. i was not expecting to like it, you know, it being cheesier than a four cheese pizza, but i totally got into it, melodrama and historical inaccuracies and all. what do you think? can we still be friends?
i am visiting copenhagen on saturday with the family. yeah! i have never been there before. oh uber danish design and fashion shops, here i come! today is my payday and you know what that spells, trouble! i cannot wait to go to the henrik vibskov store or this one called woodwood. die!
i went to st john bread and wine with stefan on monday night. it looks like a modern canteen [white with high ceilings, open kitchen, wooden tables and chairs] filled with bears and check shirt wearing designers [but do not let that stop you]. the food is very simple and hearty and british. delicious! if you come visit me, i will take you there. we were having a date-off with the couple at the next table. well, not really, but we were definitely seated in dating diners lane.
umm what else? oh 50 cent was filming something on the end of my street last weekend. one of the little boys i live with kept running out the door, pointing and yelling "gangsters! gangsters!". there was nothing gangster about it, but it was very amusing! i am still in love with my work and i hope they sponsor me when the time comes. fingers crossed! thanks to millie, my new favourite dessert to make is banoffee pie. so easy! look it up! it has been a hit both times i made it. i apologise for the lack of photos accompanying these emails. i think i am still broken after the polaroid project i did in 2005. i was thinking about it the other day. i loved the idea of instantly capturing a moment in time only to have it fade eventually. right now i have the same experience but a lot cheaper, it is called memory. haha! hehe!
lots of love
