A little poem...

My Will

The fourteenth floor
Am I here already?
No, but I'm just in the central point
The existence is still active under me
The is stil alive over me

I see the lights from the city
As stars millions and millions of years old
Does the star depart this life? Or will a new one arrive?
I see planes leaving, up,up,up
I wonder if I will with them
Up, up, up

White sheets, while pillow, white glasses
An angel in disguise
Is a nurse a sign of life? Or a symbol of death?
Countring, looking, forgetting, but I can't
The hand is moving, will not stop
Smiling at me, pretending to be my assistant

To do a will like this, maybe seems sick
But poetry and rhymes makes me more alive
Should I be grateful to anyone? Or evaluate my life?
Should I the last hour decide who should have my chair?
And should start to make the material aspects of life count?
One teddy bear is equal to this friend
However this friend is almost worth a flag, a poster and a fork
The fork of the devil

Am I ready+ Should I even think about it?
Yes, for thinking is the best way to travel
Although I don't like my path
Furthermore I will not draw my own map the next hours
I'm ready...
If I see the sunrise, hear the birds, feel the wind and smell the sea
before I go, I would like to say goodbye to Mother Earth
Who took care of me, no matter what I did to her

Did I ever tell my best friend?
Did I ever tell my family?
The wonderful waif words which are destroyed by 2004
Eight letters, three words
Do I have to say it?
A rose still smell as beautiful with or without a name

I was born in the 80's, lived in the 90's
And gone in the 00's
I did my job. I tried. I couldn't ne
Madela, Gandhi or King
But I protested if I was unfair treated
I stood up for my rights, and more than that
I would have like to write my own biography
A biography is a book about great's persons and their deeds
My biography will be my gravestone
Mads Qvist Frederiksen
That's me.
Twenty letters, three words

The stars are fading....

"Do unto others as they do unto you"

I have decided to do something drastic the last one month (and 2 days) I have at this college. I’m tired of walking around being friendly to everyone; I have to run away from this UWC “Mutual happiness”. I don’t believe in altruism, I don’t believe in “flat” or “hilly” people (people who knows me, will understand what I mean), the dolphins annoys me. “Look, I’m a dolphin, I can flip…weee I am soooo cute”.
So, I will not just be a bitch to everyone, no, that is not what I am saying, but I will tell people what I truly feel about them. If people piss me off, I’ll tell them. I will be 110% honest. Everyone keeps telling me that it is so stupid to destroy the “friendships” I have now just before we leave, but I found out that elimination is my speciality; and solitude is my paradise.
Who will be next? I still don’t know yet, but I have a set of rules I have to follow so I don’t go “psycho” with everyone, the main rules is that I should tell people what I feel about them while being 110% sober, no “alcohol talks” anymore. No “drink and cry” nights.

Nepal and their language

I did a great discovery today during lunch. The Nepalese language is a bit sick, but also VERY easy to learn. It basically consists of one word, just pronounced with a different voice :)… Let’s take three random words that I know about in Nepalese:
1) Wisdom tooth
2) Vagina
3) A girl name

And here is the Nepalese translation then:
1) Puti
2) Buddi
3) Bhuti

All of it sounds exactly the same…. What a nice language… That will mean that I could write: “my name is Mads and I come from Denmark” in Nepalese like this:
“buudi buthie Mads butt buddie bhuti Denbhut”

What a weird world… What a weird place UWC is… Let me escape before I go crazy, let me see the world instead of Flekke, let me go and live! So, Hey Little airplane please pick me up and take me to places that no one else will go to! Someone argues that leaving this place changes everything, but in the wrong direction… but I don’t agree, the beautiful thing about Life is that we don’t know where it all will end.

“If he had been looking to both sides
Before he crossed the road
If he hadn’t cross the road
If he had made the line more clear
If he had just looked at the road
Just dreamt about the way to walk
If he had just decided not to live
Then he probably won’t be dead”

The problem is that I see to many people just floating like cloud go with the air, I personally believe that you get stronger from swimming against the stream, instead of with the stream. I will go and make friends with strangers, and maybe even learn proper Nepalese! I’m drifting back to childhood… Keep away from all the grey parts of Life…..

I’m butti to bhuti, and I will never putti with buthyt

A justified believe?

okay, I know that my plans are quite extreme... I mean, one year, and at least 14 countries.... First the middle-east, then western Sahara, then Latin America and then I hope I will be able to go with the Trans-Siberian railroad with my friend Martin during the summer before I go to university.
Most of my fellow students think that I will get killed in the middle-east because I try to cross the Syrian border illegally, die due to the heat in Western Sahara, or simply just get robbed, killed or kidnapped in Latin America.
Damn you guys, I can do it! And I will prove it! You have to live life without certainty, you have to take some risks…. Death needs a reason! I don’t want to end up as a flat or a hill person (Alpar will know what I’m talking about)….

One week left….One week left of my wonderful IB! That is wonderful! I only have to do 6 exams and I am done…ready for Life…

Counting down.... - now without mocks

I'm getting the results from my (wonderful) mock exams these days...And it is, surprisingly, quite good. I don’t even think I have to study to get my 30 points now. For the people who don’t know, 30 point is the amount of bullshitting I have to do to get into Queen Mary University (plus 6’s in my higher). I would really love to study journalism and contemporary history in the middle of London…. And if I don’t get it…hmm…Yes, then I will probably do some travelling and volunteer work.

I just bought my ticket to the Middle East today. My plan is: CPH-Tel Aviv, then Jordan, Syria and then in the end I will go to Lukas’ or Yara’s place in Lebanon. One month, four countries.
After that I will enjoy my summer holiday, hopefully while working and earning money before I go to Western Sahara.

Btw, if anyone has seen the sun then please put it in my mailbox, I really really really need it these days, I had it for some time, but now it suddenly disappeared.

And one last thing, someone offered me a job. They called from the Vatican and asked me if I wanted to be the new pope, I could do everything over the internet so it was quite tempting. I was playing to tune the “pope-mobile”, walk on water, and make water to wine… nonetheless; I would have way too many restrictions. Almost as much as RCNUWC.
