More Travels Soon

Ok, so I'm fully aware that I was in Germany for 6 weeks and wrote 3 posts. I'm terrible at this. Well, in 2 weeks I will be in Asia for 2 weeks with spotty internet. I'll probably not write a single thing here until I get back, maybe...

Why not

Well, Germany is long over (ok more like 3 weeks), but I figured what the hey. I have the blog. TRy to use it.

Classes are alright. I'm dropping Vivian's one credit class. There is way too much work for just one credit involved. AND he hates the B2 room so even though there are 15 of us in the class we are all crammed into 213. When I got there last week there was literally no room left at the table and i had to sit in the corner and use my lap as my desk. To me, it's just not worth it. I would love to have free time on Thursdays.

Japanese is hard. So much of the hiragana looks the same. And its hard to learn vocab with the romanized alphabet and then also learn it in hiragana. Oh well, its just for a term anyway.

French isnt bad at all. I seem to be picking up on that one pretty well. Also Dr vivian said that Romanian isnt hard to learn once you know French..so yay!

Erm yeah..blogs....

So it's pretty much official. I am the worst blogger on the face of the planet. I guess I never got around to copying and pasting all of the emails I sent home to people on here. I've seen a ton of awesome places: Hamburg, Fulda, Hofbieber, Weimar, Passau, Eichstaett, Vienna, Augsburg, Ingolstadt, Munich...and soon to be more. I only have 10 days left of my 6 weeks here. See? I told you..worst blogger ever.

Polizei Bitte!!!

So this is what I heard for about 10 minutes straight. Outside the Hostel window there was a group of people and I didnt think anything of it because there was this huge drunken music fest all day and people have been loud all night. So all of a sudden this guy starts calling for the police. And I look and there is a guy on the ground with a ripped shirt. Now I cant tell if its from a fight or because he was trying to dress like he was a hippie...So im sitting there and he wont stop yelling and he's sounding really deprate and I was like omg i would call but I dont have the number for police here...and then I remembered that Lisa and Holly have my phone...so just as I get up to goto the hotel desk to say call the police..the police showed up...They were there about 20 mins and then an ambulace shows up...sooo what a lovely night I've had...

Also I didnt go with holly and lisa to go dancing with anna-greta because I had a headache and I knew strobe lights wouldnt help..they give me headaches...

I have weird red spots...my dad thinks its lyme disease...im 3000 miles from home...

In Hamburg

We have spent 2 days in Hamburg now and have seen all the major sites. So far pictures are on facebook. Flights and all were good no baggage lost or whatever. Although sadly Dan's mom's luggage was lost on their way to Thailand...

Nicole "surprised" us when our flight landed in Munich and we spend the afternoon with her. It was awesome. She even wrote love signs to us while waiting for her train to leave.

I have these two red spots that are almost like rings. I dont know what they are...they look a little like ringworm but they are on my arm and chest and they dont ooze, but the one does itch ...

Ok so I was looking through the random blogs while talking to nicole on skype and we found this picture of an awesome hamster or guinea pig or gerbil or whatever it is...but i needed to steal it and share it with you...but SOOOO I dont get in trouble for "stealing" this i found it on http://jandroidvstheworld.blogspot.com/

edit:
As an added note I later found blogs with fun phrases such as....

Keep Calm and Carry On (which shall be a good thing to remember as I try to stumble my way through Germany)

and the kicker phrase...

Is the Heaven, No it's Iowa....haha yeah...sure...heaven.
