Graduation

It's funny the little hierarchies and systems that develop in a small social environment like our Danish class. Yesterday, the Italian guy moved from sitting beside the guy from Nepal, to my direct left. Now the class has all white guys on one side and dark guys on the other, like we're a basketball team in the 1950's. The Italian guy was probably sick of sitting next to Nepal guy who is the most uniquely talented shit disturber I've ever met. He keeps on asking for Danish words to tell his wife he's cheating on her (she doesn't speak Danish).

I've advanced from level 1A Danish to level 1B, which is basically like making it from Kindergarten to grade 1. The teacher said I'm doing well... here are a few things I've learned: Jeg vil gerne have en ol - I would like to have a beer. Eva er altid pa toilet - Eva is always on the toilet.
