International Everything

The good news is that 8:00 classes don't exist in Denmark. The bad news is that they have 8:15 classes. I start every week with Monday, 8:15 International Finance. The professor spent the first 30 minutes of class explaining why he uses an American text book and how he prefers the American style of writing textbooks. "American texts are much less booooring" (insert thick Danish.) I finish Mondays with a course entitled "Economics of International Integration," which is basically an European Union History/Law course. This course is going to be awesome, because in the US, we are taught absoutly nothing about the EU, so I am looking forward to learning more about trade and policy in this huge organization. Today's Lesson:
