Well...

I am starting to think daily updates will be hard to continue once classes and such get under way, but I think I can probably manage at least twice a week. We'll see what happens
Today my train was delayed so I was late getting to the first event, where I and a group of 5 other DIS students were given a map of the city with 5 locations marked where we were to meet DIS faculty who would tell us a bit about the area. Being late turned out ok, because I ended up with a bunch of other students who were late because they were on the same train/coming from the same area. These new friends were Tyler, Alison (one L this time, not two, for those of you who remembered Allison was the first person I met here), Jennifer, Julie, and Emily. Later we also met up with Ashley. And someone else who left as soon as I met her, so I don't remember her name. The event was fun, but most of it went to places I had seen yesterday, but it was great in that it helped me make new friends. Then I had my introduction to my core class. The professors seem cool, and I already know three people in the class: Audra, who I had met on Tuesday, Alison, and Achira (who goes to Wesleyan and is also an E&ES major so she was in the sophomore seminar with me, and I sort of knew her). So that class looks to be fun, especially study tours to Greenland, Mons Klint and Stevns Klint. Today was also the activities/immersion fair. I signed up for Copenhagen Hucks, and also checked out several other groups, like a flag football club and a storytelling workshop. Then I headed home with a sizable group of new friends. Before I sign off and do my homework, I want to mention a few possible excitements coming up, in case I update less frequently. This Friday is the 100th anniversary of the famous mermaid statue, and there is going to be an event with fireworks, so of course I want to go. This whole week is Pride Week, with events every day in the City Hall Square (apparently renamed pride square for the week) culminating in the parade on saturday which I hope to attend. Also this weekend there is a Viking Ship festival closer to home in Roskilde, and sometime soon a food festival will take place. There is so much going on. But for now, I'm stuck doing homework.
KNOWLEDGE!!! It is also part of why I came here, so I guess it's sort of important.
I hope you all are having as much fun as I am!
