'tis the season to be jolly

well, not really. with an exam on tuesday, and 2 more in the following week, this is not a very jolly season after all. hate the fact that exams are in december when christmas carols are on 'repeat all' mode.

taryn is right, xiuying is right, we need to study even on exchange. and especially us in copenhagen, studying for exams which we have no idea how to study for. i'm talking about those damned oral exams. 15mins is all you have to exhibit the knowledge you gained from 4months of study. in our case, more like 2wks of cramming. -throws hands up in the air-

but, we did have a little breather today as we headed down to radhuspladsen to catch the official christmas tree illumination ceremony.

santa has dibs on the firetruck ladder. he almost tripped at the topmost rung actually. oh the things you do for christmas.

isnt it spectacular! the tree literally burst into light and the crowd was stunned speechless.

this is what i call a christmas tree illumination.


pre and post illumination shots.

random photos. ok, karen isnt random :) she's enjoying her apple scribbler (however you spell that).
