#2 First week in the school

Monday was our first day in the school, however we didn't have any classes, we've just had some introduction courses, where the professors and students as tutors explained a lot about IBA. That day we also find out who will be our classmates and how many hungarians are there.
On Tuesday we started with GlobStrat which is quiete similar to one of my classes I had in Belgium which was called Online Business Game. Yes we will kinda play a similar game, luckily because of the Velux they'll pay for the program, the others have to buy it for themselves. During the 2nd course we had to go out to make our CPR number ready, to start the process to get it within a month. Afterwards the librarian came to us to explain about the system, which is pretty good, we can acces a lot of online books and articles from the school and also using the school's VPN from home, so we didn't have to pay for them at all. The last course was about Genetics where we filled out a test and watched a movie and discussed what is it about, how the people grow from generation to generation and so. We also tried the lunch in the school which works fine, you can grab as much meal as you want, but beware, you pay after the weight! For a normal menu, it has a good price compered to other places where you can buy ready to eat meals.
Next day we had some good classes as well, how ever not all of them were really exciting, but they were just fine. During the evening we made a shopping to buy some stuff what we run out of, and that time we went to find a new shop, it wasn't any cheaper than the other and neither closer, just in another direction. And we also went to the other shop that we know better, coz some items were cheaper there and we also bought some fruits!
Thursday was our last day in school, when we actually had classes, first one was marketing which was actually pretty awesome! The professor is just great and he wanted to get know us all, so it also gave us the opportunity to get know eachother a bit better. Than we had busniess law, which was nice, too, the lecturer has a lot of experiences in law since she worked as a lawyer for eleven years. Afterwards we had a class about how to use sources, and how to avoid plagarism, it was also quite useful and they might repeat it once more in the semester, just to make sure we all know it well. During the night we went out to the downtown, to The Old Irish Pub, where are a lot of hungarians working, we met some of our classmates and drunk a few beers, which is quiete expensive there! Also  one of the hungarian bartenders invited us for a free round of shots, it was a nice night out to get know better some of our classmates, and they were from Austria, so yeah the neighborhood stick together. :))
Friday was the Freshenday, when we had like a competition between the new classes, which was cool, there were 5 checkpoints where we had to do different excersises as a group and we get points for each of them. It was a realy good day, however the weather was so bad compered to the sunny Thursday! I felt like our class was really formed a group, so our tutors could be proud of us! During the afternoon Szilveszter and me helped for a hungarian girl, Dori to move a few heavy things to her flat and organise the furnitures inside then we just started to get ready for the night party, which is likely the part of the Freshenday. First we went to the French party, where we met some new faces and then we went out to find a party place and we end up at Pitstop.
During the next day morning I got up early to go to Lidl and Jysk with Dori&her boyfriend, since it's too far from us it was better to do it while we have a car. :) However the prices weren't much lower, but it still worth to go for that few, afterwards we were just chilling all day. During Sunday we've been cleaning our apartment and also went for a little walk in the city.
All in all we've closed a pretty cool week.As you may noticed I changed a few things on the blog, on the right top you can find the direct links for the weekly spending, however I will still link it here too. Compering the danish crone to the hungarian forint, both money has some throwbacks, like in Hungary we don't have cents (called fillér when we had) and no 1 and 2 forint coins since a while, in Denmark they have ore, but only 50 øre coins, so they also do the round up/down as we do to 5 forints. But with the danish money we even lose/win more since 1 crone is around 42 forints, so in the worth/best case you lose/win 25 øres which is about 10 forints. The coins has a unique look, so I made some pictures about them:
