Luggage dragging first day in Copenhagen

We arrived on the 24th of July. Okok, I know it's a bit back dated, but better than nothing right?
Been busy enjoying myself here man. Yup as I said, I arrived here on the 24th, but i flew off to have fun in Spain, Portugal and Italy before coming back for the Danish Crash course on the 18 of August. I will post the trip photos later on.

Now you may ask, why the F*ck did I learn Danish. 1st, it could let me clear a freaking module in 5 days. Only a fool would not want that, RIGHT? FOOL! 2nd, after I went for the class, I made a few friends, which I definitely will keep fora long time. Real, true, sincere friends. More about that later!

Ok dudes, I miss you guys back home and I have not forgotten you guys. Yes, you! Reading my blog right now. I know you miss me too. Whoever doesn't read my blog, too bad. Since you don't miss me, I don't miss you too.

I miss my family too, turning a bit emo now. Yes, but I'm enjoying my time here as well at the same time. Mixed feelings man. Alright a few photos on the first day I reach.

Gotta lug those heavy luggage (about 90kg in total) with Clara to school. But worth it, cos we didn't need to pay for any luggage deposit anywhere. The International Office in Copenhagen Business School allowed us to leave our luggage there. Nice, really nice people in Denmark, and the International Office. You just have to pretend to look lost on the streets (or just accidentally), some stranger will ask you if you need help. Well, so far I've met 3 Danish like that, and all 3 occassions I didn't need help. And in 24 freaking years in Singapore, NO SINGLE ONE asked if I needed help with directions, especially when I needed it. Well, we still have a long way to go man.

The Danes are really freindly and helpful people, generally. Of course, if you want trouble, you can find it. But it is a safe place here, that's one reason why I love this place.

Oh, digress again, as I was saying, the luggage were no joke. We sort of lost our way, going to the International Office and were lugging the luggage aimlessly, until someone showed us how to get to the Int Office. After that, my arms were almost gone.

But all worth it. We went to Barcelona the next day. Alright. Tired liao, will post again. Had this birthday gathering last week with Seppi, an Austrian I knew here. More about that, and cooking to share. Laters!

Gotta thank dear Wan Shan as well for helping us with accommodation. Without her help, we wouldn't have been able to find a place so soon at Kasper's place. Kasper coincidentally went to Singapore for his exchange. =)

A few pictures of the first day.
