^^Forget they exist? How does that happen indeed?

 

On my mind: Dinner. It's gonna be de-li-ci-ous.

 

Well, for me you barely hear about certain countries, whether that be good or bad news. I know they exist, but in a way, they don't cross your mind often since there's barely any noise from their area.

When I think of English speaking countries/areas I think "oh! the west--Canada, the US, and some parts of Europe" and then Australia's just over on the other side of the world so despite them also speaking English I just forget about them. And as Kudo12XX said, it's not really talked about. Where I live at least, like Canada and the UK are brought up somewhat often and also due to having to sit through multiple years of US history they're kinda hard to forget whereas Australia's just sorta there and out of the way. (and from what I hear also quite terrifying)

why does your family eat late 

'Cause we're slow.. Haha. Especially when we're going to visit family, for a party or other such event.

We're hearing a lot from the US here, and many of the US traditions are being celebrated here as well, with Halloween probably being the most popular at the moment. People have begun to celebrate Thanksgiving too. Some stores even did the Black Friday stuff. I don't like it, but ah well.

As I told Kudo12XX, our crownprincess is originally from Australia, so we are probably more aware of it here.

We're a small and humble people, so that's not surprising.

Though we've recently assisted you Americans in various wars, don't know if you've heard of that.

I figured on the "small and humble people" part. I am aware the relations between the two countries, and the troops you guys have had in Afghanistan and iraq.

I'm not exactly proud of Denmark's role in the wars either.

I hear many classmates and and other people of my age talking about how big Denmark used to be, and how they'd wish it was that way again. Thing is we were only that big because of our warlike culture, and getting the lost land would mean to have one such culture again. I wouldn't like that. Anyway, I know they're just joking about it, but still...

The Bush Administration handled everything poorly. Similar to the fail attempt of "War on Drugs." Sometimes I wonder whether he even believed the whole WMD agenda. He deserved that shoe being thrown at him.
