Lots of days... And my parents arrived!!!!

To much to describe!! But my parents and sister have been here for the past couple of days! It has been busy, fun, and sleep deprived like a typical Webb vacation. The only thing that could make it much better is if Nathan were here. But if your reading this know that we have said "skol" (cheers) in your name several times! And I can't wait to see you for thanksgiving!!!!
Hopefully off to get some sleep!

Day 36

Nothing special to report about today except that I went to a track and field facility to talk to a coach!!! Who wasn't there! I'll be going back on Wednesday to meet with him and see If I can train there!

In other news I have two exams and one paper outline standing between me and a fabulous week with my mom, dad, and sister!!! I'll find a way to make it through ;)

Day 35

I have been very lazy and it has been a wonderful weekend. Friday was a dinner party with our friends then out with lisa to a party at Morten's apartment. Got up early Saturday for breakfast before the gym, then shopping and sushi before a family movie night. Today I slept in,woke up only to make French toast for the family, and passed out again for 2 hours. Then a work out and getting hmwk done!

Some pictures below!

Day 31

Had a great day, although a bit strange... I went to the zoo museum with class today and went behind the scenes. Which was really cool! But essentially we were in a couple different rooms that were stuffed to the rafters (literally this museum has millions of "samples") with preserved animals. It was interesting in the first room, being able to stand close to things like a gorilla, rhino, and zebra al animals that had been stuffed. But it got really creepy when the next room was full of glass jars containing lizards and snakes preserved in liquid... The last room was all skeletons of various marine mammals including a sperm whale and blue whale skeleton, they were huge! In one of the pictures below you can see me standing next to the skull of a sperm whale. But in the picture it is only the upper jaw of the whale and only the head is present! Isn't that crazy???

Enjoy the pictures!!!

Day 30

Today was loooooong, three classes, coffee with a friend, studying for 2 hours and a quick Skype with mom and dad before a three hour cooking class! Now not only was this class three hours but it was in the opposite direction of my house and it ran late! So I didn't get back to the house until 11:15. That's 16 hours from the time I walked out of the front door until I walked back in. loooooong day!

The cooking class was fun, although my teacher is a little out there... And we cooked the Classics, which are apparently French. Not a problem by any means, but interesting because I thought we would be cooking Danish food!

Some pictures of what I made! Off find the name of what it is later...

Day 29

Ahhhh so tired! A quick over view! Went to class, came home, bought yarn (no judgements), did hmwk, went to gym, ate dinner, and more hmwk, now to pass out!

Picture below, who knew Ballerup had a pedestrian street??? Apparently everyone but me!

Day 28

Ps, one photo of Paige with Morten, my host cousin, and mortens friend ziggy. From going out into town on Saturday! Sorry no post, but I didn't have Internet where I was!

Then another picture from my lazy day book. We are reading it for my neuroscience of fear class. I actually really like it and would highly recommend it for anyone who wants to understand the way their brain works just a little bit better.

Day 27

Nice relaxing day, a few classes then back home to hang out with Ditte and Peter! Had a yummy dinner then even better snacks while watching a movie with Janne, Ditte, and Peter. A great Friday after a busy week!

Today I'll be getting my butt kicked at crossfit, then I'll be heading out for the entire day! Morten, cousin of the family, has friends who are releasing their first album for their band and he invited me and someone my friends to come! It should be very fun! I'll let you know the name of the band as soon as I do!

Below is a picture of Paige and I, she is a friend coming with me tonight, old picture, oh well

Day 26

Soooooo tired, don't want to do anything!
Today was loooooong! Two classes in the morning, then I stayed in the city allll day doing work and preparing for a presentation! I was in the city from 8 to 7! Yikes! But I went for a walk in the middle of the day and sat in a nice sunny park to do work for awhile <3

Tomorrow will be nice too, I'll have three classes in a row early, then back to the house to change and off to a Zumba class with Janne! ( host mom) it will be interesting ;) then hopefully a glass of wine and a good movie to end the week!

Just a quick pic of the square a block away from my school! Europe as our classroom <3

Day 24-25

Drat I did it again! My bad!

Yesterday wasn't anything exciting except I saw a handball game!!! Which was very interesting, kind of like a combination of basketball and lacrosse..... And I also went to crossfit with Jenna!

Today was going to be nice and simple, go to gym, go to host brothers school for his english lesson, go home relax and get stuff done! But instead of relaxing I went to Tivoli!!! For those of you who don't know, it's an amusement park in the center of down town Copenhagen! We were there from 2-9, there goes my window for hmwk, but totally worth being tired tomorrow! Off to bed! Hope everything is going well <3
