Vienna, Austria & Less Than 10 Days Left

It's safe to say that as my time in Copenhagen comes closer and closer to it's finale, I get worse and worse at blogging. Sorry for the long breaks between posts!

First, HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my lovely cousin Leigh!! Love you so much!

Next, last weekend I went to Vienna, Austria with Emily, Aimee, and Casey from my house and met up with Caroline, Sarah, and Olivia, three of my best friends at school. It was a perfect weekend. We had the most beautiful hostel that ever existed, it was a great group, and Vienna is an absolutely gorgeous winter wonderland. We spent the entire weekend at Christmas markets and I have zero complaints. It was a wonderful final trip of the semester.

This week is a little hard for me because it marks the start of all the holiday acappella concerts I'll be missing at Villanova. The Spires and Supernovas perform tonight, Minor Problem and Sirens on Saturday, Haveners and Vocal Minority next Tuesday, and NBT next Saturday, the night of my return. It's this time of year that I really wish I was there to support my friends and, more than anything, I wish I was there to be with Minor Problem, at the very least to see this concert I know they've been working so hard on. I'll be back soon, though. Right now it's just a matter of showing my support from afar and waiting patiently to see the videos! All my acappella friends: You are amazing. Good luck at all of your concerts, I'm sending love to all of you!!

At this point, I only have about 9 days left in Copenhagen. That is simultaneously SO sad and scary, but also so exciting. I can't wait to be home. I'll be spending my last days here: 

1) Finishing the millions of papers I have had to write (ONLY ONE LEFT)

2) Exploring the tiny Christmas markets throughout the city

3) Seeing all the places I haven't gotten to see enough of yet (Namely: Tivoli Gardens)

and

4) Spending time with the wonderful people I've come to know and love.

I have a few finals next week, one more paper to write, and only 9 days standing between me and the good old US of A. My mom has decided she's glad I'm visiting Villanova as soon as I return home because then she won't have to deal with my inevitable mourning period following my departure from Copenhagen. ;) But really, it's been too long, home. Can't wait to see you all.
