2008
Happy new year, guys. 2008, huh? Seems like it’ll be nice so far. Quiet, as usual. I could totally go for a party right now, but everybody I know is either celebrating with their family (like me) or crunching on their non-fiction paper for the 2nd. For the record I finished it today and made both 22 pages and the 1000 page curriculum, and Mass Effect is frickin’ great. Mass Effect is the primary reason I feel like partying right now, because it kept me up until 7 am this morning, so I slept until 1 pm and am at present nowhere near tired. But as Gelo said, at least I’ve got company over MSN. That sounds a lot sadder than it really is, btw.
Here’s some fireworks from out of my window an hour ago, you’re only getting it in 200×150 because I didn’t use a tripod and I took ‘em through the glass so they’re both blurry and shaken 
PS. Casper, my fellow game-obsessed media student and coworker until the 25th, finally got some actual content up on his blog, but he went and wrote it in Danish, so most of you won’t get it. Ah well, maybe that’ll teach him a lesson about not limiting his audience. It’s a good post though, and it has a lot of Scarlett Johansson in it, which is always a plus. Added him to my blogroll too.

I commented on his blog in dutch, maybe that’ll teach him a lesson about not limiting his audience
Or not … anyway, happy new year. It seems far less foggy over there than it was here.

Alright I will start writing something in English, at least I understood the Dutch, it was something about that even Scarlette Johansson can’t beat the numbers of explosions in Transformers.
I’m planning a post on Portal, which Jonas have talked nonstop about on work.
The sky looks quiet clear out there in Hvidovre, in Copenhagen I couldn’t see a damn thing, but at least it was like a war zone in here, there were a group of people that had fireworks that pretty much compare to a grenade, so it took a hour before I could leave my home.

Crap, what a way to start a new year: Under siege by armed thugs with explosives!
Looking forward to your post on Portal. Have you even played it though?

Yeah, not the funniest thing to experience in the new year, also I left out that 2 of the 3 people I was going to party with, ended up beating each other up and breaking into peoples appartments. I ended up spending an hour in a 7-eleven, and talking with the cashier and after that I went home.
I have played portal, I think I have one level to go, and then the game is completed.

And then you will play through it again with the commentary on! Subsequent playthrough are only about 2 or 3 hours anyway. And after that, the advanced maps and the challenges!

Yeah, you could spend a long time doing the step challenges if you’re crazy like that.
Also reading things in Danish just prompts me to further belittle Danish culture, so it’s not a total loss.
