Just a quick recap on the last year...

that lovely roommate who causes me all the misery in the world got mad at us for being loud on a friday night? who's she kidding...we both wanted to go to bed at 12am yet couldn't b/c she was blaring the tv... so we decided it was time to turn the tables and be giggly and loud at 1:30 just after she decided to go to bed. who ever said she got to ( Read more... )

Yeah, so things are stupid ( Read more... )

This semester couldn't have had been worse...coming back from Germany was perhaps just a bad idea....finishing school was perhaps a bad idea. After coming back I had to deal with readjusting to this weird life over here...try to find my friends again (which I don't think really worked...I lost a lot of friends this year and probably will never know ( Read more... )

So I've been back less than two weeks and ever since I've been back I miss Germany... I miss my friends, I miss my life from there, I miss the town I lived in, I miss speaking German every day and writing/hearing it... I miss it all. I wish that I could go back in December, but right now I don't see that as an option. I wish to visit my friends ( Read more... )

Well folks, it's over. I can't even believe it myself. My entire year in Germany has come to an end and before I know it I'll be on US Soil again.

I went biking on Germany's island (Sylt) which lies near the border to Denmark... that was ( Read more... )

I forgot to mention this birthday brought me the most cakes ever. I got 5 all together!! Not to mention if you count the 6th cake which my mom baked for me before I came back to Germany on Monday! Insane...cake everywhere and I am struggling to get rid of it... give it away in other words. It's all good, but I can't eat 5 cakes myself... ( Read more... )

So as you all know (or don't know, haha) I finally turned 21 (aka I'm legal now)... and it wasn't such a bad birthday at all...I didn't go get myself trashed like half the dumb Americans who celebrate in the States. Instead, I had a few friends over for cake which included a few surprise visitors (Gilberto, Issei, Johann, und Mami)...so das war ( Read more... )

Okay, so here's my update - most likely it'll wind up long, just like everything else I ever write ( Read more... )
