oh how lovely, it is snowing and raining and windy outside and i have to walk altogether 2,5 miles to the store and back to get dinner.
good news is that i had my final big math test today, which means i don't have to think about it anymore. otherwise not much has happened. oh i need to fix my graduation pants soon, and when i have i'll take a picture and show you and it will be like nothing you have ever seen before, haha.
also i'm so tired of school.
sorry for boring post.

book recommendation

i just finished reading this book:

IMG_7975q

it's a danish book, hence the danish title "kunsten at græde i kor", in english "the art of crying" by erling jepsen. i loved it. it is horrible and adorable at the same time. horrible because it is about incest, but adorable because it is written from an 11-year old boy's perspective. he doesn't understand what is wrong with his sister lying on the couch with their father at night, it always makes him feel better afterwards anyway. his father also attends funerals to speak, because his speeches touch people and make them cry and that too makes him happy. so when his father seems down, a death in the small town would be convenient.
the story is set in southern denmark, around the 1960s.
i definitely recommend you reading this. it has also been made into a film, which i think is close to being equally as good.

and i had some film developed, i need to scan them (these are just some of them i was sorting through):
