Day 3 = Love

Let's catch up! Day 1: Arrived in Copenhagen where we had a little bit of an orientation & waited for our scheduled pick ups. Mira & I walked a very very long walk to our super sweet little tiny 3rd floor (Not to be confused, there are 5 flights of stairs)conveniently located apartment! I love our little place. It's a typical European space...I was looking for the pantry in our 5x10 kitchen & stumbled upon my 2x2 shower. Lovely right? Mira & I went to the market to buy stuff for dinner, I ate showered & slept and was in bed by 8:45. I've finally just unpacked 2 days later.

Day 2: A lot of orientation...running around campus (our buildings are scattered about Copenhagen & we use other university buildings) & meeting people who are in the same living arrangements as myself, groups and or major. I conveniently made friends with Karoline's roommate (My fellow EC Gal) and have been hanging out with their roommates since. I've met kids from all over the US, but wouldn't ya know my favorite is a northern-er like myself. Last Night Bri, Corinne & Myself made an adventurous trek to & from all our apartments. It ended up being like a 4 hour expedition in which we made dinner, drank cheap dollar beers & Nuttella sandwiches and also made a lovely pasta dish for Bri's roommate Jonas. We then came back in to Copenhagen central to some of the shared DIS housing (Conveniently located within 100 feet from all classes) to socialize and meet some kids. We went to the Land Down Under bar where I met a lot of other students and Dane's alike. As a result I showed up to my first Danish lesson half intoxicated and not well rested at all. Needless to say My Danish is improving. Jij?

Tomorrow we have a second Danish lesson & then we meet by major with our professors & heads of the department. Tomorrow night I am helping a friend find her new koligeium or something spelt like that. It's shared housing between other universities & she hasn't been able to move in yet. So we are skyping it out tomorrow... Also I'm vising the land where the crop is plenty and legal.

Today after we butchered the Danish language as a collectively hung over class we split into groups and ventured around the city all day trying to complete a scavenger hunt. I for sure got lost, we for sure got "corned" by a crazy corn on the cob-stix vender, took the metro the wrong way & also saw some sights along the way. I picked up books & grocery's today. I'm unpacked & ready to show you my adventures through pictures! :] IMAGE 1 is the beer we drank on the plane. We found it fitting the brand was Gull as in the Endicott Gulls...so we bought some and drank them!

IMAGE 2 is the street view from my bedroom window :] I opologize for the impossibly tiny pictures... My wireless is being slow & the larger file refuse to upload. So deal. Baha




I have many more pictures to show but my wireless is giving me a headache...
Soon to be posted a photographic adventure of my journey around Copenhagen :]

Hej! Hej!
