the longest day of my life

so last i left off i was in limbo of what was going to happen regarding the housing situation. Since my parents and myself complained and let DIS staff know i was very uncomfortable living in the area, they managed to get me a room in an apartment right around the corner from the school. (which i have to say is much safer and a much better location for when you want to get home after the partying, which youll understand why soon). I havent been there yet, but after i write this blog, im packing all my shit again, which is going to be hard since i have more shit now, and get a taxi and get there.

In other news, classes were great, though i was definitely falling alseep in one of them. After classes and shenanigans i had to deal with, i went back to my room with d-todd, and then chilled. around 6 we left to emilyss place, ate dinner, and then chilled for a little until we proceeded to go to the DIS party.

The party was in a club, and it was alot of fun: free drinks, dancing, people around. but after a while we left to meet emilys friends and proceeded to head to christiania (which is a place where people dont pay taxes and do whatever they sort of want to do. theres alot of artistic graffiti all over the place, and its sort of a hippyish place. the danish gov't doesnt like it but they dont really do much to stop it) we headed around looking for a bar and eventually found one and got drinks, even though we didnt stay there. we left cuz it was really crowded with older people and found a garbage can with fire to stay warm. (they have those all over the place in christiania) we left after a group of people came by and some guy through something in the fire that caused two smallish pops of fire which were like small explosions, and found another bar with a dj blasting music. we sat, had drinks and chilled. we waited a really long time for one of emily's other friends to arrive so we (or should i say danielle and emily) periodically got up to dance a little. it was lots of fun, but apparently not a usual night out.
after her friend showed up and we chilled for a little longer, we left. getting home was the very annoying part. we took a metro back to the center city and realized that the train home was either a very long time away or not coming (since they dont work at night. however, it was a weekend, so they should run every hour. we didnt know for sure, so we didnt take chances.) we walked to the night bus place but it was annoying too cuz danielle and i didnt know how to get home on the late bus, and emily and her friends who all lived together did. we just went back with them, and danielle and i would spend the night. i actually ended up going to bed around 445-5ish in the morning, and left emilys at 715 which is when the trains start movign every 10-20 minutes. since im on emily's line all i would have to do was take the train 3 stops and i was home. i left to the train station at 715 and missed the train so i had to wait 20 minutes in the freezing cold. finally got on and got back here around 8ish where i literally took off my jeans put sweats on and passed out until 215. understandable i guess.
all i can say is it was a fun night but i hope to never have to do that again. and i wont since ill be moving to the center city where i can literally walk home from most bars and clubs. if not i can take a metro that runs all night to the center train station right near the apartment. i also knw ill be the one hosting friends who dont want to go home, but we shall see sinc ei have a roommate now.

so much went on in one day. and i think after i get settled in my new place, im gonna start to take it a little slower. or hopefully itll feel that way. bye for now. i need to pack and get the hell outta here.
