I got back from a two week trip Paris, Strasbourg (yes I live here) and Munich, with my Dad and Chris. So basically it wzs fantastic, to make a very long list of sights sounds and experience into a short declaritive statement. But for any of you interested Munich is about the coolist place I have ever been and seeing how many place I have been in ( Read more... )

Sitting in the center, not a soul I see. Kind of weird to be here and not have the noise of life in every direction. But there are still pictures of Jamison everywhere I look so it seems fitting. The city seems empty to me, my room all packed for the move, just to wait and do before I part for a time. Now my head is full of possibilites, and that ( Read more... )

What an occasion was this. What an image that flashed away. We think in terms of the internet sometimes, and it is as if the universe has a refresh button. What was once is now a memory. Last night I said good bye to 46 crazy kids, who I have come to know in this new home of mine. I liked to call it, one big dysfunctional family. It was more than ( Read more... )

Well it is done, I am moving in with another French Family next semester, so huge sigh of relief. Not knowing where you are going to live is a very scary proposition, and I never realised how meaningful it was to just be able to go somewhere, or at least have the option to go there. It just feels like one is walking blind with, god I am glad I have ( Read more... )

The train came crashing home everything in the air emotions screaming from conductor to passenger, not a soul knew what to say. But it crashed back on to the tracks, now the wheels are turning more smoothly, the sun has risen when the day ought to have ended. The passznger is at ease, now that the ride is nearly over, the only question which ( Read more... )

So yes this is a little long but I promise that it will be worth the read. I know you all are busy but I would really appreciate it if you took the time to read this one ( Read more... )

Sunday 2:00am I fly out from Stuttgard. Then I will pass a leasurly week on the Meditarian in the south or Turkey, where by the way it is still warm enough to swim. Mon homme has a house and he invited me to go when him on this vacation with his 12 year old son. I am not really sure what exactally we are going to do and where exactally this house ( Read more... )

I sent a letter to my brother about a month ago. And this may not seem like a big deal, but it really was for me. I told him all the things that I have been meaning to say over the years, mostly about out Mom and how all that shit has effected me. And seeing that we are brothers it makes sense that we would be able to understand oneanother on this ( Read more... )

So yeah I am leaving for Brussels in like 10min. It is for a class and we are getting briefings at NATO the EU council of Ministers and the US mission to the EU, so I think that it is going to be really cool. But frankly I am getting a little tired of traveling. I have spent more time out side of Strasbourg since I got here than actually being here ( Read more... )
