Just spend about 2 1/2 days in Dublin, Ireland. 15 coming English teachers and one actual teacher took the trip overseas to learn about Irish culture and history. The weather was scary authentic as it was raining the whole time while we were there. To sum up the trip it was consisting of a lot of drinking, either at the surprisingly nice hostel or at the pubs. Alcohol was not allowed at the hostel though, so we rejoined with our 16 year old gene and smuggled beers in and out. The visits to the pubs were part of the Irish culture, and apparently Ireland has huge problems with young people drinking, which is understandable after seeing packed pubs on a Sunday and Monday night.
Tuesday was spend in a bus. We went on the Gaelic trip of Ireland, and a very nice driver showed us historic places and even sang a song on the very non-sense-language Gaelic.
Dublin as a city didn't impress me one bit. I did talk to a volunteer guide in the St. Patrick's church, and she told me some very interesting stuff about the Irish people. Apparently they still hate the English people. She asked if the Danes had people we hated (and since we suck at war, there is some obvious countries to hate), but really we don't - as long as we beat Sweden and Germany in sports we're fine. She found that interesting.

Back on the blog
I was looking at a Danish news site, and they opened a public debate about which 23 players should go to the world cup for Denmark, and that inspired me to do my own list.
Goalkeepers:
1. Thomas Sørensen, Stoke
2. Stephan Andersen, Brøndby
3. Brian Jensen, Burnley
Defenders:
4. Daniel Agger, Liverpool
5. Simon Kjær, Palermo
6. Per Krøldrup, Udinese
7. Micheal Lumb, Zenit
8. Lars Jacobsen, Blackburn
9. Micheal Silberbauer, Utrecht
10. William Kvist, FCK
Midfielders:
11. Christian Poulsen, Juventus
12. Jacob Poulsen, AGF
13. Johan Abselonsen, OB
14. Christian Eriksen, Ajax
15. Leon Andreasen, Hannover 96
16. Thomas Kahlenberg, Wolfsburg
17. Martin Jørgensen, AGF
18. Søren Rieks, Esbjerg
Strikers:
19. Niklas Bendtner, Arsenal
20. Søren Larsen, Duisburg
21. Rajko Lekic, Silkeborg
22. Peter Løvenkrands, Newcastle
23. Micheal Krohn-Dehli, Brøndby
As you will see I have NO space for Dennis Rommedahl, Jesper Grønkjær and Jon Dahl Tomasson. No offense guys, but there is other players who will provide experience, and new players to provide skill.
Feel free to comment...

April fools!
April 1st 2007 is a day I will remember for life, and this is why...
I was gone the entire weekend up till 1st of April. I was at a soccer tournament, but had various conversations during the weekend with the yank. On my way back he calls! Im sitting in a car, and cant really talk, but still, he tells me: "I have bad news"!. I decided to play cool, and told him, that he could tell me, when I was home. 15 min later he calls again, and ask how long time, it takes to go to the airport from our place and that he had to meet up in court 2 days later in America... A slight frustration is getting to me!!! Anyhow, longing to know, what the fuck is going on, Im sweating my ass of biking home, carrying my luggage a way you wouldnt think possible... Im biking down the street, and see the yank sitting on the door step. He looks even weirder than usual. Finally I realize the date and get so relieved, that I could care less about the reason, why he is sitting outside the door. That only lastet a little while though, because in his April-fools-mood he decided to lock us out from the apartment. After 3 hours of trying to get in, we gave up, spend the night at my parents and paid happely the 100 $ to the locksmith to get back in. Happy April-fools-day... ;-)

Danglish is actually a term
Alright, so "my husband" is making fun of me, when Im having an awefull english-day (it does happen - dont know why). Then he tells me, I speak "danglish", which I guess is true...
But, today I was in a danish class, and we were talking about the Scandinavien laguage (the ability to understand each other in Denmark, Norway and Sweden). The teacher was telling us, from what countries and languages our language is effected from. And here it comes, there is a term called "danglish", which is not when mrs. Pedersen is speaking rubbish english, but when the danes is accepting english terms like Internet ect. in our language. Thats Danglish... Peace...

And I now declare you for husband and wife :-)
Peace of piss... Less than 5 min and we had the peace of paper we needed.
The intersting happend later the same day. After welcoming the yank to the danish system, by standing in line for a couple of hours in 5 different offices, we finally found a person, who didnt had a giant questionmark in her face, when we asked questions about immigration.
So apparently the danish government realized they need foreign people, because they have speeded up the proces, and if everything goes smooth, the yank will be in a job with danish salery within 2 month (and have access to the dream world with free education and health care).
