830

So when I first started class here I thought that 830ams would be a sneeze in comparison to an 8am. I learned today not the case. I stayed up until 3 reading The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo & naturally turned my alarm of instead of on. This morning however I definitely made it to class in under 8 minutes. I woke up at a 843 (for my 830) and got to class by 858.

On a up-note, it's Tuesday! That means NO class tomorrow. I have a field trip this afternoon to the Danish Museum of Fine Art (Or something of that gist) to present a group project about Architect and Designer Cecelie Manz. Tomorrow I have a field trip for my Danish Design class. I'm really starting to see how class is going to be interesting, challenging and different here. Our professors are really encouraging us to engage in our studies and also the cultural experience here in Copenhagen. Since being here in 3 weeks I've perhaps seen as much art and design as ever in my past collegiate experience. The Danes are innovative designers and I hope by the time I leave here, not only will I be able to speak a little more Danish, but that I will innately be influenced by Danish Design.

Word on the street it a few Endicott students are making their way from Florance to Copenhagen in a few weeks! I'm so excited! Also I think a few Endicott students, myself included, are going to make an hour train ride and hop the border to Switzerland this weekend for some exploring and shopping. I think we might try and head over Friday night, stay at a hostel and come back here Saturday night! : ] I love the simplicities of traveling in Europe. I think I'll have an easier time getting to Switzerland then if I wanted to drive to Jackson NH in February. I'm really starting to LOVE love it here. Not only can I walk to class in 8 minutes with some hustle but I can find freedom in 8 minutes. I never want to leave this city.

: ] On another note I do miss everyone from home. The whole communication thing is hard. I know you are all hearing about my life through the blog, but I don't hear from anyone or much about home. So don't be afraid to share with me! I hate email and the telephone is not an internationally friendly option...So please fill me in on your life and what's going on in the states. You can do better...I didn't know who won the Superbowl until late Monday night...that is not acceptable!
