Things are starting to get busy now. My first full week of classes ended with dinner at Nørrebro Brygus with my Danish class. Dinner was a traditional dish called Burning Heart, or Burning Love. It was mashed potatoes topped with beets and bacon, and was rather tasty. Today I am going with my host family to my Christina's nephew Gustavo's birthday. (I think that's how it's spelled. Maybe I will inspire him to start going by a really cool nickname). Tomorrow is finally the get together for the students and their host families in the Roskilde area. We're going bowling then having a BBQ, and it should be great fun, as I like bowling, BBQs, and all the people that I have already met who are living around here. Then Monday at 9AM I start my core course week, for which I will be travelling to southern Zealand to check out some sea cliffs which are apparently very beautiful and also make it very easy to see the K/T boundary. Also on this trip we will be having lunch at Babette, which is a restaurant that is run by one of the people who was involved in starting Noma, aka the best restaurant in the world for a few years until an unfortunate norovirus outbreak. So presumably the restaurant we are going to will be pretty good as well.
The first full week of classes went pretty well, but I definitely am not yet in school mode entirely, and motivating myself to do HW was difficult. But i suppose that is sort of to be expected. All my classes still seem exciting and I am still looking forward to what I will learn, which is good. That's all I've got for now. I hope you have enjoyed or will soon enjoy the photos I have posted, I am sure there will be many more once I return from my trip south.
Until then, may your days be filled with a lack of boredom!
YAY!
