In about 1½ hours we will start driving towards Croatia. Rest of family is sleeping now, but I didn't really feel like sleeping just some two hours, so I'm staying awake untill we drive, and then I can sleep some in the car.
I've made hdd recorder record Portugal - Holland, France - Spain in round of 16 and all quater and semi finals. We will be home for bronze match and final.
My dad got this adapter for laptop so I can use it in the car. So I've copied some movies over and I also have some dvds with movies and things on I'll bring, so we have something to do in the car and such. This also means that I can do some blogging meanwhile (offline ofcourse). Otherwise I'm pretty sure I would never get it done.
Bags are in the car and I've gotten mp3 player and other shit ready for the drive. So only thing left now is waiting I think.
So long, and thanks for all the fish..

Plans for the Summer
I had my last exam this year yesterday, didn't went as well as I would have hoped and I got a 7.
So now it's holiday untill sometime in August, and here is what my plans are so far.
Football World Cup 2006 Haven't watched much football last few years, I think I might already have watched more the last two weeks than I have the last two years. Been watching a lot already and plan to watch a lot more too. Too bad the ending is same time as the next thing, but there are TV in our house so we can watch it anyway. My favourite teams are Ivory Coast and Germany. Ivory Coast lost two first matches and are already out, eventhough they have played some nice football. However I am absolutely sure Germany will go very far this year again.
Croatia Vacation Together with my parents, sister, brother, uncle, aunt, two cousins and four more family friends I'm going to Croatia for some 10 days plus the drive, two days each way. Looking forward to this, as last vacations with these same people rates as some of the best I've been on. It might be a little too hot there for my liking though. However the worst thing being missing two weeks of #ranks'ing. :I I'm afraid Jeppe might catch me, and I was just getting close to top 20. But I will just have to catch up on the lost points in the time to follow.
Tour De France 2006 This will start before we get home from Croatia but it will just be some of the more boring flat stages I will miss. I'm glad to finally be home at the time of the mountain stages. Armstrong is now gone, hence it will be very exciting to see who can win. I'm hoping for Mancebo to go all the way this year.
FVANG LAN Me, Zerox, eppeJ, enil and hopefully also Napol will join at enil's place in week 30 for some serious #ranks'ing, drinking, grilling, hoyling and so on. FVANG team on #ranks have recently made it to the spot as the second best team, moving quite much faster that HOLJA (no. 1) at the moment. If we don't take them before, I'm positive we will here :)
Movies I plan to be watching the following movie series during the summer: Star Wars, Lord Of The Rings, Jurassic Park, Charlies Angels, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen DVD box and American Pie. Beside some other single movies ofcourse.

The Notebook
Almost a week ago I saw The Notebook. A movie that really touched me. I think it was watching the main charactors as old also, that did it. Watching it I just couldn't hold my tears, can't remember last time I ever cried like that. I think I will never forget that feeling this movie gave me.

ESC 2006
Had expected Denmark to do quite much better this year than they did. We were auto qualified to the final after the 10th place last year, with a song that in my opinion sucked. But appearently "Twist of Love" didn't stand out enough. I thing that I believe to be very important in this competion. I mean, song can be ranked second or third in someone's opinion, but they only give one vote, so eventhough some song is belived to be second, third, fourth ect. best it won't get any votes. I also believe this to be the reason that the four big countries (Germany, England, Spain, France is it?) rarely do that well. They make quality songs, but just not the best.
However one song did stand out this year so to speak. I saw the music video on youtube a single time before the semi final. Didn't realized then how good it was. But immediately after watching it at the semi final I got a nice feeling about it. I choose to gamble a little money on them, 6.66€ on Finland as winners and 4€ on Ukraine in top3. When Finland won it gave me about 85€. Quite a nice amount of money. :p~ Have gambled once before on the ESC, in 2001 on Sweden. They became fifth.
Beside Hard Rock Hallelujah there were some other very nice songs this year. Ukraine's 'Show me Your Love', Greece's 'Everything', Germany's 'No No Never', England's 'Teenage Life', Denmark's 'Twist of Love' and Iceland's 'Congratiolations' which unfortunately didn't go the the final. They have been a big part of the daily playlist since. As you also can see from my last.fm profile.

last.fm
I've really wanted to use last.fm for a long time, but haven't been able to becuase they can't make a plugin for musicmatch jukebox :(. However after all FVANG guys registered there I decided to try foobar 2000 to be able to use last.fm
So I installed it and got started on last.fm. Seems like an ok player but a little simple. Not sure if I can live without my beloved musicmatch. But we'll see. I added a top artists of the week chart to the blog.

Danish elma meeting April 2006
Friday after school I hurried home to pack the car so I could drive as fast as possible. I left at 14:00. I drove wrong like 3 times when I drove down to Zerox' place, my krak map didn't help that much. I think I drove wrong after Holstebro or something. But I got there. Hadn't seen his new house and room, so was nice to get a look. He could direct me to enil's place.
After picking enil up we drove to Aabenraa without big problems, with the help of my krak map and the cities enil had written down we had to drive through. We were at the place at 18:00 I think. On the highroad we heard Evenescence - Anywhere but home Live.
It was a little caotic in the start caus of many things. People was late, thanatos stranded in northern Denmark, and computers not working. A few new people there to meet, including my LaMe team mate insane guy. Had never thought I would meet anyone from my team, so that was really nice.
Was nice to start battling and have something to eat. Me, eppeJ, enil, Zerox and Napol eat at the pizza place next to both evenings. The other too, but took their pizza with them back to the meeting. First night Luther joined us aswell. Is nice to do a few things together where computers are not included :).
Later at night it was time for the flagtag battle. In first round I met team mate insane guy. I won with a fairly big gap. This was first time two LaMe members have ever played multi together. Next round I met enil, and won once again. This was a quite even match. In the final I met petsen, and took the victory \o/. Was pretty even match as well.
Quite early next day there was a battle, and afterwards a soccer match. Again stuff without computer is nice too. Later was the 1 hour TT battle. I really like this competition and had been looking forward to it. It went quite well. Fucked up end it Spiral and died in Downhill, beside that only a few minor mistakes. At the end I had only Lap Pro and AH left, giving me a TT of 1:11:58,29, which gave me the victory \o/.
For dinner me, Napol, epp, enil and Zerox walked to this other pizza place, where I shared a hawaii with napol. At the meeting overall I had two and a half hawaii pizza, one of them with dressing. Walking there we walked by some 7 mega bik motorbikes parked, one of them having registration number "The King".
Beer battle was a little boring cause you only got to play quite little time. However it was quite much fun to watch people play on the big screen.
Around 2:00 we lost all power on the story. The box to turn it on again was behind alarmed door so we couldn't get it back. Kinda bad luck :I. We had no power rest of the meeting. Me, Napol, Vandmand, Fishen and Rigger played poker while most others sat and drank beers and talked. There was a little corner with light from the bathroom and the story above. Became third in poker, and we played another game, were I became second. Vandmand winning both times. Went to sleep afterwards around 5:00.
Sunday not much happened so people left early. But first we sang birthday song for eppeJ who became 18 a week before. They had even bought a nice cake saying "Congratiolation, epp 18y, from the elma crew" (or something). Tasted quite good.
Then we had group picture, packed, said goodbye (had minor chat we insane guy, saying goodbye. He said he might show up at another DEM sometime, that would be nice ;)) and took home. On the way home I had eppeJ and Napol with me in the car. I forgot pieing before leaving so at a point on the highway I _really_ had to pie, and drove 150 most of the time to the next pieing place. Is so long between those :/.
Then I drove to Napol and epp's places and home. No problems finding the right way on the way home. I came home around 4:30 to an empty house. Took a shower, made popcorn and watched an episode of Scrubs, following by an episode of Friends. Damn that was nice.
Quite tired the next day in school.
You can see some pictures on moposite later I believe, I didn't bring my camera this time.

That feeling
I had the car today, so after school I drove downtown ( ;) ). First stop was discount store to buy pop corn and chips for the weekend. First time I went in there I had forgotten my money, so had to go back to the car to get it them.
After that I drove to the library. They have this book sale of old books this week. My mother and sister was there yesterday, and told that they had seen Gusiness Book of world records 2000 there. I wanted that, so I took down there to check if they still had it. However I found this fantasy/role play book, which was number one of a series of two, where I had bought the second at book sale there earlier. The sale was like "A bag of books for 25 kr." So I found a few other things I wanted too. Football 2000 international matches, Sport 2002 and 11 pc player magazines. The magazine that I sent snail mail to unsubsribe just after visiting library.
When I came home an talked to my mother it appeared that they had some books for sale in another room too where the Gusiness Book of world records 2000 had been yesterday. So it's likely that they still had it. Might go back later to get that.
Driving from library to post office it became quite hot in the car. 30 degress acording to the thermometer. So I opened the window. And that was when I for the first time this year got that feeling.. of summer.
Hot, fresh air and good music.
