Today Andrea and I went to our school to meet the four other exchange students in our class from Germany, Italy, Slovenia, and another Rotary student from South Korea. They were all super sweet girls and I look forward to getting to know them better and sharing this experience with them.
We met with a teacher who put us into two classes; a more arts oriented one, and a more science and math oriented one. I was put into the more arts oriented class, and I'm so relieved and excited. I also got to choose an elective and I chose to do a course on Film & Media. Apparently students study and create films which I'm really excited about, because I wanted to take a similar course at my high school in America, but it's a 2 year course so my exchange interfered with it.
After our meeting at the school, we said goodbye to the other exchange students and Andrea and I went back to my house and had lunch and went on a journey in Rønde to find some school supplies.
After entering and exiting many stores empty handed, we met two lovely girls who recognized our pictures from the banner put up at our school, and helped us find what we were looking for. They are in the grade below us, but I hope to see them around again. Without their help we may have been walking around for a long time before finding what we were looking for.
Andrea and I both bought some basic school supplies; paper, pencils, pens, etc., and went about exploring the city.
We were able to find the bus station, which was very exciting for us, for we plan to make many trips together to explore more of Denmark, and visit some of our other exchange friends.
I'm very excited and nervous for school to start tomorrow. I hope it will be a good experience for me, and that I will be able to meet a lot of new friends and learn a little more Danish every day.
