#25 Few days back to Hungary

This week passed with a lot of happening compressed in a few days. Monday I've just gone to school, had my classes and also joined the chinese course, since I won't be there on Wednesday. I made 2 cheesecakes each day while I was in Denmark for the coffee shop, while on Monday night I packed up to be ready to fly home on the next day. During the middle of the day on Tuesday, I left school and went to the airport by bus and then checked in and wait for the gate to open and departure. I got home for the night, I met my mother at the train station and we went to do some shopping before going home. On the next day I went in Budapest to change some money and order my new glasses to be ready until Friday, before I fly back to Denmark. Afterwards I had some time to pass, so I was looking for shoes, since my old ones were in really bad conditions. During that time I met Nóri who with I went to Belgium for Erasmus! We talked about how it's going and what are we doing now etc. Then I had to head back to the college to do some paperwork for the actual semester. In the college I also met some ex classmate and talked with some professors as well. Afterwards I went to the hotel where I had my internship, just to check on them. :) Later the day I had dinner with my brother and met with my friends from college. We had some time talking and drinking before we went together to meet some friends from the summer camp. Then I've just caught the last train to get back home.

During the next day I was all the day at my hometown, went to the hairdresser and did some shopping. On Friday I went to Budapest again, to get my new glasses and take a little cheesecake to the hotel and to my friends, while I was meeting with one of my best friends too, and spent some time together. When I got back to Érd, I met with another friend who I didn't see for a long time, he drove me home and spent some time talking and so.

On Saturday early morning my mother took me to the airport to catch my flight and head back to Denmark, where I had wait a lot for my bus to get back to Kolding around noon. I had some rest and took walk in the city center at the market and also checked on the coffee shop and did a small shopping, while on Sunday I tried to catch up with all the stuff I missed while I was at home.

Hopefully I'll catch up with the spending sheet and uploading pictures soon.

#24 Theme 5 ended

This week we had some long days in school, as we were finishing theme 5 and we ahd to make a presentation about a case at the end of the week. On Monday we had finished with the practice rounds of globstart and started the real game, however the 1st round will end only next Monday... On Tuesday we had some introduction about the internship, what we could expect and how we should do it for our own goods. I also had danish class during the afternoon, and since it was really hot inside the classroom for the last half hour we went down to the garden and we played an activity game with danish verbs outside. =) On Wednesday, I had a really long day at school, I also had chinese and actually we started to learn some words, not only about the cultural differences between Europe and Asia, and also got know some new people. :) During the evenging I made my "demo" cake for the coffee shop to take it there next day. So we started our day at Tobber's with Szilveszter to present my cake and give it a taste with the owner, then I headed to the spanish residence to work on our project for the next day. We working on it all day from 10 AM to 5 PM with some small breaks, afterwards I went for danish classes and as I finished there I went back to Tobber's to check on how the business is going with the cake, and it was all gone! =) Moreover they got some orders on what else I could make for the next time and I might get a job for the time I'll be here. :) These are pretty great news! On Friday we present our work in school, I think we made a pretty good job, however the teachers didn't give us such a good feedback, but we passed! :) During the afternoon we went to Tobber's with Szilveszter to talk about to possibilities in the cake business, and later on the afternoon I went to Bar' sushi with some 1st semester students to grab a great deal and spend some time together.
During the weekend I've did some cleaning, prepared some food and tested out a new cheesecake with oreo. And also I packed for my trip home and made two cakes ready for Monday morning.

As always you can follow my spending here for the week.

#23 Back to learning languages intesively

Back to school again, and time to start learning languages! There was nothing crazy this week at school, besides that on Tuesday I went for danish and got a book and got know how much I need to catch up with, since they've already started at the begining of August. And since there was a chance to start learn chinese for free as well at the IBA, I joined one course which runs on Wednesdays. This week, there was an introduction only, and it seems like it's more about the business and the culture and way less language, but maybe just because of the introduction, we'll see how it'll go later.

On Wednesday with my group, we also made the first decisions for globstrat and just before the Chinese class started I practiced a little spanish with one of my classmates, who is, no surprise, from Spain. :) Thursday I had danish class again when we had a little test, just to see how the modul tests are done, to practice as we could do one in February.

Friday, there was the fresher day for the new students, later at the evening I also joined to the party with 3 of my classmates and some friends of them. It was really nice, and it was good to see that there are so many new students and they oranized a good party for them, nor like for us in February while they had a little bit harder time, since we were far less.

On Saturday we decided to have lunch outside and we walked a little in the city, since we had a nice weather. We were aiming to eat some pizza, but it turned out they are closed for "pause" at the time when we got there, so instead we went to the Budapest Restaurant and eat some burgers and a pizza. Afterwards we went to Szilveszter's place and we sat in and talked with the owner of the coffee shop, we spent quite some time there, I really appriciate these talks. =)

I also wrote my spending in a list like I did the previous semester, however I have only my side of spending yet, without dividing it, we still figuring out how it will work later on... Anyway you cna check it here for the past weeks.

#22 Back to Kolding, back to school

Aaand here we are again! On Tuesday night in US, I departured to get back to Denmark, however my flight has a little delay at the start it was till the 30th of August in the USA when I started to head to Europe. During the flight the pilot was able to manage to work out the delayed departure, but when we arrived to Frankfurt, there was a security harassment, so we could reach to the terminal for more than a half hour, and because of that when I finally entered my plane to Billund was already departured. There was a little running after how to solve this problem and at the end I got a new ticket for a later flight and besides that they gave me a 10 euros ticket to buy some hot meal for myself. So instead of just run and catch my flight I had to wait around 3 hours, made some calls to my friend to inform him to not go to the airport now, coz I won't be there to pick me up and also called my mother, so she won't have anything to worry about. At around 6.30 I arrived to Billund and waited a little till my friend with our temprory roommate, Laurence, arrived to take me home.

On the very next day I've already had classes to go and remeet with my classmates and got know some new ones! During the night there was a birthday party, too.

On the following days I've been packing my stuff and tried to organize my room, and at that time I explored that my winter coat with my gloves and 3 of my jackets are missing, however as I remember there were nothing left in the previous flat... so it's a new mystery which need to be solved in a reasonable time! I've also put some money on my account and payed my rent, however I do not remember my PIN code for my credit card, so I needed to request a "readvise", since at the danish bank you cannot change your PIN without getting a new card... why?! I also need to figure out when to go home, since during the autumn break it is quite expensive now, double than going today...

During the weekend I was resting at home, catch up with my series and watched some movies, to have something else to talk about besides my experiences in the US and so.

I didn't forget about making the excel about the money spent, I've just need to catch up with it, since I have no access to my card at the moment, and we also need to figure out how we gonna split all the cost between us.
