Visitors

The last two weeks have been packed with activities. From sunday to wednesday last week, I joined my class at the university on a trip, to somewhere in the middle of nowhere, as a get-to-know-eachother- trip. It was very amusing and social and I was very happy that I had joined. On thursday, I met Susanne here in Copenhagen for the first time. She had just moved here from Molde as well, and it is really fun to have someone that I know from home here in this city, too. 

When friday finally arrived, Knut came to visit me for the first time. We had a great weekend together, and I got to show him around in the city and had him meet some of my classmates. On saturday, we also met Ragni, which was really nice. I felt so happy to meet people from home, and not least was I relieved to be able to speak Norwegian, and only that, for a whole weekend. Normally, I speak a kind of twist between norwegian and danish, which makes the Danes understand me better, but makes me sound like a Norwegian fool. Can't wait until I finally learn some more proper Danish. 

This last week has been packed with activities at the university, to get us to know the university, the IT and other types of systems better. On Friday we had the student enrollment ceremony, where the headmaster of the university presented the different faculties and held a very nice speech. The old tradition is that all new students shake the headmaster's hand, which stands for an informal contract between the student and him, that the student will follow the University's rules. This took place yesterday too, and I can proudly say that I am enrolled at the University of Copenhagen as a musicology-student, after shaking Ralf Hemmingsen's hand.

Susanne helped me buy and put together a clothing reck!

Having the most Danish thing there is, red sausages, at Nyhavn.

Two pretty ones <3

We went on a canal tour, and passed the royal yacht.
Visiting Svanemøllen beach. It has been such a beautiful summer-week with sunshine and nice temperatures. Nice to finally have some time off with Knut. 

Now I am more ready than ever to start studying, and on monday it all starts. I have already bought my books, and I am so excited that I can finally call my self a music student. Next weekend will be something totally different, though. I am going on a trip from friday to tuesday, but I will not write about it until I'm back, so stay tuned!
