Day 0: Arrival

HEJ, KOBENHAVN!
I'm here! Wow! Things I've learned on my journey over:

1. A "small" suitcase in my book is not "small" in Lufthansa Airlines' book.
2. Credit cards are glorious when they work, and frustrating as hell when they don't. Especially when you're in a foreign country with no Danish kroner and can't take any out.
3. The Danish soccer team flies on Scandinavian Airlines and all wear matching blue blazers and have matching white suitcases. And sat three rows behind me. And were gorgeous.
4. Jet lag is real.
5. After wandering the inner city, I realized how close everything is and how centrally located my dorm and classes are. Thanks, DIS!
6. All Danish food looks yummy. And expensive.
7. I cannot pronounce a single Danish word correctly. (Yet...)
8. I'm so excited for my adventures in Cope (yes, I will abbreviate Copenhagen to Cope from here on out) that lie ahead!
