Tape

We had the day off of school today. I had a nice long morning doing nothing then went to meet my group in studio to finish up the site models. After I finished my part I walked to the art store with another girl in my studio. I wanted to buy some double stick tape, but didn’t see a price tag on it. I thought it couldn’t be more than the kroner equivalent of a couple bucks but I was wrong. A single role of double stick tape was 70 kroner, even with my student discount. That’s a 14 dollar role of tape. As wonderful as double sided tape is, it is not worth 14 dollars. I’m going to return it tomorrow. Hopefully a different employee will be working then. I bought a utility knife at the same store for only 5 kroner (about 1 USD). I guess that goes to show that Danes are firm believers in the saying “measure twice, cut once.” The monetary punishment for needing to tape something back together is wicked.

Its raining again this afternoon. That put a damper on my soccer plans. Instead I went to the grocery store, and then proceeded to eat most of my groceries when I got home. At least groceries in Copenhagen are reasonably priced.
