Nahh…

Everytime you get tired of people saying ‘ When you don’t like it here, then leave’, maybe it is worse when people stared at you like they are about to say ‘ What are you doing here’. I myself, is tired of talking about Danes. They have been a cliche for foreigners when talking about the cold, discriminating kind.
But these things can’t be ignored when one could only afford free newspapers everyday. It seems that it is a scoop when foreigners eat more cakes, or suspects in some robberies and shootings. Can’t ignore that there will be fees again to paid when renewing permits – its just everytime. Life is not a box of chocolates here – but lakrids in different forms. You don’t know what’s coming but you know its bad, in my case at least. You wanna know whats going on in Japan and the Middle East, but it seems like the news of the new integration minister is equally important. And just when you thought its the end of the day – when one of your colleagues says – ‘ there will be lice ( yeah the crawling kinds on the scalp), as long as there are Moslem countries in Europe. Wow.
A month ago, I was on my way to work, I met two drunk teenagers and when they were about to pass, one just shouted right on my right ear. I was just thankful that I had my earphones that time. I was shocked but was thinking at the same time. I never ever had any experience like that in my country. In my country that maybe has more crimes than here. I wonder how they will react, that one could get stabbed by an icepick just by making a lot of noise. I was insulted and clenched my fist. ‘ Man må ikke slå nogen’ – things you learn in the kindergarten.
I am a positive person and always forgive. And I don’t want to change what I think is good in me. When I tend to become more private – like I don’t find it weird any more not to know the neighbors and be contented with 2 constant friends? To eat rugbrød with the right pålæg? And oh! the existence of potatoes on any occassions? To travel the same place where everybody goes? Naahh…. I’d rather assimmilate to the world than to a 5 million populace.

Yesterday at work, the office canteen served warm lunch of salmon cooked in Thai curry. Delicious, I tell you.
But what the Danes eat? Rugbrød and the goddamn pålæg. Makes you wonder if these people were programmed to do so since they were kids.

But they are! I had worked in a kindergarten, and it is served every Friday, at least. If I kid doesn’t want the pålæg or the rugbrød itself, they have to try and try and even stuff it in their mouths to eat it. And I was even scolded more often, when I put on the wrong pålæg. ‘Darlig blanding’, they will say.
