Tre Dage

Hej. Jeg skrive fordi jeg skal komme hjem til USA naeste torsdag. Technically, it says 2 days to go on my blog countdown, but for the sake of parallelism, we’re going to pretend it says 3. I know I’m skipping ahead a little bit, because I am stillllll behind on blogs, but don’t worry I’ll …

Not a Bullet Point Post

I have this theory, which I made up during the 4 seconds it took to open up a Word document, that there are multiple types of good days (or weeks, or months, or years). Good days where one, big, amazing thing happens Good days that are composed of many small, wonderful things Good days that …

My Scottish Accent Improves Slightly

Okay okay I’m catching up on blogs! Homestay: Getting back from Spain reminded me once again of how glad I am that I chose a homestay! I came back to a home-cooked dinner of spring rolls, which my host family calls “duck pancakes” because the rice paper looks like a pancake and we put duck …

What up what up - it's been a busy two weeks. VISITORS I've had some friends from home visiting for the past two weekends, which means that I got to do ~fun touristy things~ in Copenhagen with no shame. It was also cool to walk around the historic parts of the city because I got …

HIGHLIGHTS (have u read this)

Classes: Artificial Intelligence is pretty fun. We just sit around for three hours and talk about state spaces and breadth-first vs. depth-first search algorithms. Apparently our final project is to build a model of a robot that carries stuff around in a hospital. Despite being unclear if I had the proper qualifications for this course, …
