this week back in denmark.

so i apologize for being so behind in my blog about my fall break vacation....

but before i get to that i would like to update this week... :)

so the weekend was full of recovery from a long friday filled with 4 trains over 13 hours! so it was a much needed down weekend full of catching up on tv shows and relaxing and such things...

monday i had choir and it was quite hard to focus but as always it was nice to sing... it felt like i had forgot every danish sound or word i'd learned so far after leaving... so that was rough but hopefully it will come back quickly!

i was supposed to start a new class on tuesday called welfare studies but we got an email telling us it was cancelled which is super exciting! i was not ready to start another class right after break!

on wednesday we were guinea pigs for an experiment some of the masters students.... we were divided into two groups and one of the groups (group a-- my group) had a sheet and we had to divide m&ms between myself and a random person in group b. we had 10 and if the person in group b rejected our offer nobody would get anything. (i learned that it is usually played with large sums of money) it is called the ultimatum game.... so i put 5:5 it is better to be fair in my opinion and have everyone go home happy... but i learned later that i just don't take risks... taking risks really bothers me... studies show that most people will accept the offer as long as it isn't too bad for example 3:7 would be acceptable where the other person would only get 3... but anyways... one of those learning about myself... even when it isn't directly a risk of harm i still didn't want to risk things for my future even it was m&m's.... but anyways...

yesterday wasn't super eventful... i was up the night before because the strawberry tea i bought and drank a bunch of wasn't caffine free... i should've translated the label beforehand... oh well... so i went to class that afternoon but it was so boring... the books are interesting but the teacher is pretty weird.... but then i was in bed before 10 because i was so tired from the night before but thats ok i got a good nights sleep and have been productive today... did my laundry, cleaned my room, cooked up some lunch... the works... and now finally forcing myself to get caught up on my blog....
