Bank Update

I went to the bank and talked to a very nice teller and he gave me my card back. Also, I drank to much coffee this morning, so I think I looked like I was freaking out. Because when I drink to much coffee I start shaking, but I think this worked to my advantage. I also started our conversation in danish which probably helped also. Now I'm still shaking, but I have my card back.

Banks

An ATM ate my card. The bank will not give it back to me unless my bank, from home, faxes them a statement saying there is nothing wrong with my card. This is because ATM's generally only take card when there is something wrong with them, but in my case the ATM turned off in the middle of the transaction and did not give me my card back. This does not seem as though it should be stressful, but it has become so. I called my bank at home and they were more than happy to fax a statement to the Danish bank, but this is the problem. The fax number for the Danish bank is not working for my bank at home. If the fax does not go through the Danish bank will be sending my card back to the United States.

I don't know what to do. It seems as though I will be living off of 1ooo kr for the next six weeks. I don't think that this is going to work out very well seeing at that is about $200.

Halloween!!!


I love Halloween! I didn't really think that I was going to dress up this year, but yesterday I found out if you dress up and go out bars will give you free drinks! Therefore I am dressing up as a doll because it's easy, and I could do it on the fly. See!

Home sick and real sick

I've been getting progressively more and more home sick as the time goes by. I also have a feeling that this week is going to suck. I have three tests this week. I also have 100 more words in Danish to write for my paper that is due tomorrow.

I got sick last night and I had to miss two of my classes today. I tried to go but after my danish class I just felt so awful that I came home and slept 4 hours. I'm still to sick to eat real food, all I've have today is applesauce and sparkling water. I hate being sick.

But I seem to be pretty good at moping about it.

Traveling Plans

I have just booked my flight and hotel for Prague! I will be there from the 9th-13th of November, as of now the trip is not looking that expensive. The week before Prague I will be in Greenland on a "scientific expedition." This expedition is through DIS and will be 5 days, I still have not been informed on what will be happening but I know I will see the northern lights and I'm hoping to go on a dog sled ride.

Before I go I have two papers to write and a test. Oh well.

Fruit Flies

Some how, I don't know how, my kitchen has been infested by fruit flies. It's gross, I've killed over 25 today. I blame my roommate for not cleaning her shit but she probably blames me, so, oh well.

Sleeping

Why is it that whenever I need sleep the most I can't get it, it's like it just runs away laughing at me.

Paper Cups

Did you know that if you put a paper coffee cup in the microwave on the third time it catches fire and leaks your tea slowly. Oops.

Here we go!

I don't know if this is going to be kept up but this is the beginning of a blog of my life dedicated to love, loss, disasters and successes (if you can get more sappy than that). Wish me luck!
