I've been told that if I'm going to have the audacity to be an awesomely urban international jetsetter while other people are stuck in the bowels of central Pennsylvania, I should at least have to common decency to update my journal more often.

I've been in Berlin, Germany a week now. Why? Because I'm intensely awesome. And so is this city. It's absolutely amazing here, I can hardly stand it every time I realize that I really am in Berlin.
