long week


so the past few days have been a little hard here, but yesterday tiffany and i decided to take a little trip to copenhagen! it was much needed and it was a lot of fun to get out of lund and be somewhere new for the day.
we left and got to copenhagen around noon and set off for the planetarium! we watched a 3d movie on dinosaur sea monsters. we were in a huge imax, dome theater and there were only 4 of us in the whole place! it was really fun though and before the movie they did this little presentation on the stars and planets which was interesting. i was sad that we didnt get to keep the 3d glasses which was disappointing but oh well. after the movie we explored the place a little bit and they had some pretty cool little exhibits and they even had this video game where you had to move on this green screen and then they put you into a video game and you had to move to make your character move. it was fun.
after that tiffany and i just wandered around a bit and ate this really good chocolate strawberry pastery thing. then we went to this little part of copenhagen called christiania which is like this little "freetown" that isn't governed by danish law. its just a little hippie town, a mix of santa cruz san francisco and berkley something out of the 60's. it was a little sketchy so we didnt spend too long there, but it was a new part that we got to see! they dont let you take pictures inside christiana im not sure why but all over the place they had no camera signs.
so after we left there we walked around a little bit more, but we were getting tired since we had been walking around for about 7 hours so we decided to go to the hard rock cafe. it tasted so good after a long day of walking and it was nice to just sit and relax for a little bit.
afterwards we headed home and our day adventure came to an end.
tonight i think some of the girls and i are getting together and making dinner together and having wine so im excited to have a girls night! these are the girls that i am going with to amsterdam so i'm really excited for us to all travel together it should be a lot of fun! i told them about the mike's bike tour in amsterdam and everyone seemed pretty excited about it so hopefully we can fit that into our schedule! i also saw this thing called boom chicago, its this comedy night club that some people from SNL and madTV have performed at so maybe we'll include that in our trip as well. who knows.
i'm excited to start traveling. i like it here in sweden, but it gets a little lonely sometimes and since i onoly have school 2 days a week for 2 hours it gets a little boring here so i'm struggling to find things to fill my time. tiffany and i are going to look into joining the gym here so that might give me something to do!
hope all is well in california and that everyone is excited to start school.
i'll leave you guys with some pictures from my trip yesterday and from my serving job last weekend at the nations.

miss you lots.
love you more.
