All-nighter, and the Worst Haircut Ever
Published on Aug. 20, 2003 in Denmark
I th ink my last entry was slightly wrong, since I only spend three days in Copenhagen. Think it was really the 17th, but I d don't really know!
So I have been in Europe for well over a month now, and my time is winding down. I have most of it planned out, which is nice, but to summarize what happened in Kopenhaven:
The last entry I mentioned that I went biking, which I did for almost the entire day. Pat (a guy from San Fran) and I biked all around town, for like 6 hours or something like that. Not too any highlights, just that there is a great river/lake/thing in CPH that has a path all around it. We biked for a while on that on these rented POS bikes that cost 20 krona each, which is about 3 euro. You put it in and then they just come on our, and you can ride them. It took us an hour and a half to find two of them, but we biked all around. WE went to a place called Christiana (haven), aka FreeTown. It was basically like a mini Amsterdam, but with no regulation whatsoever (and no whores). There was a LOT of drugs though, but only pot and stuff. Police do don't go there, they tried once but a riot broke out. Kinda cool, interesting. Then we rode back and got some hair clippers from a resteruant called Govinda's, from the girl that I mentioned in my last entry that had her head shaved. That night we took about two hours shaving my head (the clippers were really, really not very good) and then we completely, we BIC'd Pats head. Quite an adventure. I met a girl named Hilary from Portland, and another girl named Sarah from Minnesota. They come into the hair shaving story. My head is totally shaved at a number 2 level, except the back is not quite totally trimmed. I was the only one who had ever shaved a head before, so nobody knew really what on earth to do besides me. A French guy fixed my back a little, but it need to be trimmed a little more. I told Sarah about the time molly trimmed the back of my head way up to my ears, and she said she could not do it. I handed her the clippers, and zzzzz, a line she cut all the way up to the top of my head. Can you believe it! I was like wooooah. The story is a little more in depth, because I mentioned that when the line was up to my ears it deprived my sex life, for a month. When I felt it I was like "there goes my sex life again for another month." Hilary laughed form inside the shower, and Pat cam out of the shower, saw it, and started laughing. We just buzzed my head a number one then, which is real close. Good times. Lizz would love my hair. I wrote a few emails that night, and then came back to the hostel and played cards for a while with the three of them, and went to bed. I woke up at 12:00 the next day and after eating food, and taking a shower, went to the Internet cafe and gamed for a while. Looked around town a little more and went to bed. While at the Internet cafe I was able to make contact with Maria and Kerstin, my friends that I met on Ios. After hearing that I was going to come up to Sweden they demanded that I go and see them, so I made plans to meet up with em. Woke up this morning and checked out of the hotel and went back to the Internet cafe, gamed some more, met another guy that lived there that twas playing bf1942 as well, we rocked the shit in the house (well, I did, but he caught up eventually) and I left to head back to the hostel to get my stuff then to get on the train. I didn't realize quite what time it was, but jumped on a bus and just made it to the station on time. I am on the X2000 now, a high speed train to Stockholm, then another train to Fulan, where they live, hurrah!4
