Ordinary is boring |
So I guess here I'll share things that intrigue me or make me laugh, or cry, or just things that might be more interesting than average. Hopefully I’ll write a few good posts. Share some thoughtful things. Some amusing things. Some stupid and inconsequential things. I'll do my best to entertain you. |
Friday Bailey, Chloe and I decided to take on Copenhagen night life again. We met a friend at an obnoxious fancy restaurant for her birthday and started off strong by shotgunning a beer in the bathroom. Proceeded to wander around, almost got our cans stolen by the crazy can collector man, watched the can collector man pee on the fountain, met some Scottish men who tried to share their vodka with us, and then went to a bar where we nearly got eaten by an alligator. All and all successful night
The next day I was treated to a 3 hour bike ride with the host family. I had to ride my host dads extra road bike which was wayyy to big for me, but it went really fast which was fun. I only crashed once and the injuries sustained were minor. Also almost ran over a dog, but I’m pretty sure its owner told me it wasn’t my fault in Danish. Danish skills (and also body language perception) is improving. We visited all the local sites including their local church (built by the same man that built the Sydney opera house), their local castle ruin (every European town has one), and their canoe club (also designed by the opera house man).
This week I have a giant pile of work to do, but then it’s spring break!!! 1 more paper and two tests to go. Chloe and I have a 3:40 flight on Frieday from Copenhagen to Kiev. We are spending the night there, hopefully seeing some ancient cathedrals and tombs, and then are flying through Athens to Santorini where we are meeting our friend from school who has been studying in Vienna. We are staying 4 days in Santorini, 2 in Athens and then I am meeting a DIS group in Portugal for a trip they organized. Needless to say focusing on exams is not going well at all.
