RUS-trip and other Danish stuff

Life in Aalborg is exciting. Every day there is something cool to do and if not, you don't have to worry, because you will surely get at least one invitation to a party. And if you don't, you are always welcome to visit the library 24/7. Oh, and if you are not really into libraries, just be pretty sure that the Uni has always something to offer.

And this is the story about how the tutors kidnapped us 2 days ago and took us to an island, that is unknown even to Danes and woke us up every morning at 7 AM. 7 FUCKING AM. Nevermind, yolo. The island was cute, though. However, I don't think many people live there. Except for the one dog that we met and the 2 old ladies on their bikes.

During the trip, we lived in a boarding school. I can imagine that those must be some bad kids hated by their parents and society. Yo kid, you are gonna live on an island for the rest of your studies and you can't go out anywhere because there are just 5 houses while 3 out of them are for sale. 

But it was cool, though. I got to talk to some classmates, whose names I still don't know. We experienced hygge and Danish cuisine including the breakfast culture - putting slices of real chocolate on a bread. Whatever. It wasn't actually bad, at all!
Anyways, the RUS-trip is apparently a Danish tradition so that the kids get to know each other and find friends to form project groups. Not sure if this is going to help me, but nice try :P

 Anyways, 1 week ago, we left our cosy squeezy apartment :( It was a very heartbreaking good-bye and Dido misses us a lot, so he just keeps inviting himself for dinners. We miss him as well. But as awesome friends, we helped Dido with stealing/borrowing some furniture before we left him all on his own with no food. And I am a professional couchsurfer just for 1 more week, then I am moving to the town! Yaaaaay!

The days at Uni have been okay. There are some issues with my mindset, but that's nothing that can't be fixed. There just needs to be the will. I am working on it. I am also learning how to spend a nice time in the library and even though my heart cries when it's sunny outside and I am sitting above books all day, it's okay. And it will be. Aalborg has been treating us well so far - I haven't even been homesick yet! But I guess that's because I am surrounded by people 24/7. But more on this note in another post.

The library view

I can't believe it's going to be 1 MONTH in just 4 days. I can't believe I have been here for so long. So many things have happened and I have met so many people, that I am losing the ability to interact with them anymore.
I am this weird kind of person, that has batteries for talking with people and it takes some time to charge them.

I am also slowly getting used to Aalborg. It feels almost like home now. Not really, just slightly. Strange faces turned in familiar, sometimes I meet people on the bus or on the street. And that didn't even happen in Bratislava so frequently. And what I am absolutely loving about Aalborg these days are the sunsets. They are just wonderful. They make you stop for a while and stare. Stare and think. Think and appreciate. Sounds like cliché, huh? It is, but it is true.

 That's it. Sending hugs everywhere. Especially to my fellow AIESECers around the world. Thank you for having my back and being there for me when I am doubting myself and when I feel like a piece of shit and want to cry. Thank you unconditionally. Love you all ♥
