Sooo my excuse for not writing more on Friday is that Kerry, Emily, and myself may have spent close to 4 hours making a stop motion video. It’s utterly ridiculous and amazing. If it is ever put on youtube I will share. Then, as Kerry and Emily finished editing, I went to play pool with Sara and Zack and managed to beat them both soundly at foosball ( Read more... )

Starting right in:

Thursday, July 9th: I had made plans with John and Cindy previously to visit the Ramones Museum that was just around the corner from the IES center. I’m going to tell you right now it’s a total tourist trap and we all knew that going in. But we all got cool buttons out of it, so it works out in the end.

So yea, we met up after ( Read more... )

And here begins the massive update that has been neglected for, well several months.  I apparently stopped writing right after I got back from Munich, which is kind of sad.

This is going to begin with July 7th and go from there, in case you were curious. I’m not sure how many days I will get through, but I’m giving it the old college try.

July 7th: ( Read more... )

This is going to be pretty ridiculously quick because it is an excuse and not an actual update. The reason there are no new updates would be because work (<- I originally typed that as mork and then had a good laugh at being mauled by an alien) ate me alive over fall break. I had literally sat down to type everything up and spread my notes out ( Read more... )

So, I've kind of been intentionally avoiding finishing my Berlin write ups because I don't really want to have to admit that I am no longer there. And for a variety of other reasons, but that's the big one.

I will soon, I promise, just not right now.

On a slightly related note...

So, I was working in the library the other day, as they pay me to do, ( Read more... )

July 5th saw Jill and I getting up relatively early for another brunch. This time with Maddie, Anna, and some of Jill’s other American friends. This was definitely a just-throw-on-shoes-and-call-it-good endeavor.  I got lots of comments on my pink argyle socks.  I laughed. That is generally what happened when you show up for brunch in basketball ( Read more... )

We’re back again to talk about München. This may be at least a two parter because I spent three days there and we did kind of a lot of totally random stuff. So prepare yourself for a long ride filled with all kinds of strange things. I will warn you now, I did in fact climb upon a statue in the middle of a fountain and contributed to the breaking ( Read more... )

All right, faithful readers, we have made it to July at long last. Between my last writing and this I have been occupied with killing scorpions and rescuing snakes from the kitchen and I dyed Bev’s hair a violent pink and all kinds of other stuff. I spent about an hour organizing the last few weeks I was in Germany so hopefully we can fly through ( Read more... )

Between not sleeping ever and being out til 1 you’d think I’d have been smart with my time and actually finish writing about Berlin things. You’d be wrong. I have been spending my time here not being home, reading, turning into a scorpion huntress, having insane movie marathons, visiting the dentist about four times now, being addicted to Kingdom ( Read more... )
