The first week

Helloooo,

So it has been a few days since I wrote my last message. I am here for more than one week now and today the 'real Erasmus life' has started officialy. There has happened a lot since my last message, so here is an update:

Shabir left on wednesdayevening and the moment I was walkin of the parking-lot where we said goodbye, a girl asked me the way to the closest supermarket. We both found our accents look like Dutch and guess what, we were right. The girl, Anna, is also doing the same minor as I am, so it was a big coincidence. She borrowed my bike to go to the supermarket and invited me for a wine after she was home.

Thursday I had a pretty relaxed day. I went running and found out Denmark isn't flat at all. Those hills can be pretty steep, especially in the park. Friday I went to some second-handstores and Ikea with Anna. My room is decorated with a lot of (crap)stuff now. I will post some pictures later this week.

In the weekend I went to the shopping-centre closeby called City Vest. The rest of the day I did relaxed things because I was pretty tired of the party the night before. On sunday I went for a run again and now I was prepared for the hills, but not for the rain. It was dry when I started, but the moment I arrived at the park the rain was terrible and my clothes were soaked in two minutes. In the evening me, 2 other Dutch girls and some boys from Cameroon played a card-game named Ezelen (translated in English it is Donkey). The guys didn't know the game and as soon they found out the rules they were tricking eachother all the time, pretty funny to see.

Monday was relax-day again and today was my first day at school. We had to start at 09:00 and that is pretty early after a couple of weeks holiday! I have a really nice class with a lot of girls and only two boys. Today we did introduction-games and we had a tour around the school. The building is a departement of the VIA University College and is pretty small and looks really cozy (gezellig). After school we went to the sea with a small group. Aarhus is located at sea and there supposed to be pretty nice beaches, although we didn't find them today.

Now I am pretty tired of all the new impressions and talking English the entire day so I think it will be an early night! For now you can enjoy some pictures I made when Shabir was here, and from today at the 'beach', ánd ofcourse the university.
