Nothing too exciting... but hey at least I'm in Denmark

This week has been a typical week of school work.  The usual academic tests, papers, and last and most certainly least, group projects -- the epitome of academic hell.  However, I get by with a little help from my friends... well, by that I mean listening to songs by Christina Perri and Adele on repeat...and watching Veronica Mars.... again.  (I just wanted to quote the Beatles)
Now, one might ask... how does listening to music and watching tv help with your academic work? In reality it doesn't... but it makes me happy enough to tolerate writing papers, working on group projects, and studying for tests.  It's the balance in life that is essential folks. 

Besides the academic going-ons I have begun to plan where I will be dragging my parents once they arrive in Copenhagen... IN 9 DAYS :) I'm looking forward to seeing them, and also eating real food. On the agenda is the Carlsberg Brewery, the infamous Pusher Street in Christiania (known for the nonchalant drug dealers illegally selling right out in the open), as well as a plethora of Castles and mandatory historical landmarks. 

Lastly, I've discovered how truly amazing google is this week.  Googledocs is essential for when you are forced to do group projects.. and google even has their own international phone that allows me to call any number in the US through my computer for FREE. YAY.  It's fair to say that since discovering that I've used calling my parents as a new and creative form of procrastination. Ellen DeGeneres would be proud.  

Hopefully I'll have more entertaining stories for you in the near future.
