Okay, so let's start with the good news and then I'll start getting petty.
Thank god for Lanky and all my friends who have been abroad before because right now I feel like I've struck gold.
I've been planning since I got here to go a meet Sarah in Munich during my weeklong break and travel with her to Prague. However I thought that would mostly be the extent of my travelling while I was here, mostly due to lack of funds.
However, I had a little bit of an epiphany this week. I'm abroad. And I'm 21 years old. Money should not be an object. That's what credit cards are for. And although I'm probably going to dig myself a deep hole of debt, I don't really care. Because Milan is a two hours plane ride away and there's Christmas fairs in Hamburg, Germany and it's still 35 degrees in Zadar, Croatia. I'm literally in the centre of it all and money and debt shouldn't scare me off of that.
Plus, Lanky advised me of this great site called Skyscanner where you can literally find flights for like 70$ round-trip. It's stupid cheap. And so, I'm throwing money woes to the wind because I don't think there's any way I'll regret it after going to some of these places. I'm going to make money and be in debt for the rest of my life, but I'm not going to get to experience the world at such a close-range like this.
Okay, enough of the deep talk. Annoyances.
1) I still don't have a full-length mirror. Now this may seem vain, but imagine not having seen your body in almost three weeks. Like I don't know if I've been gaining weight or losing it. I've been going for lots of runs, but I've also been drinking a stupid amount of alcohol and the school cafeteria has these little chocolate bun things and I eat one pretty much everyday. So again, it'd be great to know if my jeans still fit or not.
2) This class. This is the one where I'm pretty sure the teacher is crazy. Like Mt. A.'s own Dr. Polegato, only Danish. And without the weird colour coordinated outfits (too bad). But this woman seems way too happy to be teaching this subject and trust me it's really not that exciting. The second thing about this class is the brown-noser. And I say "the" because it seems like no matter where you are in the world and no matter which class you're in, there's always one. This one is particularly annoying. Somehow she always ends up sitting in front of me and I kid you not, she raises her hand for every single question the prof asks. Ou wait, no, she just refrained from answering one. But she's also nodding along with the girl who actually did answer it, so meh, no redemption there brown-noser.
I'm not really sure why I find these people so annoying. It's ironic really, because she's the one engaged in the class and I'm the one blogging and not paying attention and yet, I have the nerve to hate on her. Enh, whatever, I never claimed to be perfect.
PS. Tomorrow is the Intro Party. Basically it's a huge party in the school cafeteria and all the students from the different schools in Sonderborg are invited. This is already seeming like a prime Jessie-gets-wasted night.
PPS. Ouu two PS's, shock and awe. But there's currently a video of me circulating Facebook. Showing the Shot-Up extravaganza. If I can figure out how to post it on the blog I will. I'm not sure if I should be proud or ashamed, I guess it depends who sees it.
