Okay, I'm finally back in America with internet, after a day of being in airplanes and airports (without internet) and then a day of being in fake England (also without internet). Now I just need to get used to the time change and all of the stuff I have to do. I'm still in mourning/denial about leaving Germany ( Read more... )

I'm flying to Florence tomorrow, so I might be out of contact for a few days. Hopefully I'll be having fun with a place to stay, although the people who have offered me a spot in their backyard are being a bit off-and-on with the giving me information thing. Anyway, after that I'm flying to the US next Saturday. I'm just going to apologize now for ( Read more... )

I'm flying out of Germany in about a week. I'm stressed out with finals at the moment, but I'll be more or less done on Friday. I get to spend a few days in Italy with some friends, and the I really have to leave, all the way back to America ( Read more... )

I haven't posted in a while or anything, huh. I mean, compared to my recent amount of activity. I guess this is just a PSA to say that the nonposting is probably going to continue. I'm having finals at the moment, which always saps my ability to create, or make reposts, or, like, talk to people. I won't be cutting myself off the internet - I've ( Read more... )

I was with my whole exchange group, which was cool - I did a lot of stuff I could have only have done with the support of my university, like tour the Reichstag building. I also got to do fun stuff with friends (drink vodka in an abandoned airport, go to a club that had free cake, tell the story of ( Read more... )

This weekend has been super busy, except for today, when I just kind of melted into my bed at some point. I disapprove of the current heat about as strongly as I disapprove of the forecasted rain for this week. June ( Read more... )

Let it not be a surprise that I never get around to posting as often as I think I will.

( A post about Germany, cut for length and pictures. )

Made it to Germany last Sunday, everything fine so far. Have figured out the buses (sort of), bought groceries, found someplace to fence, and finally have internet of my very own! You know, the essentials. I even navigated two different sets of regional buses today in order to go down to the Allstar headquarters and buy sabre blades, so I'm feeling ( Read more... )

So, flying to Germany tomorrow. Pretty much finished packing and everything, though I'm still in the process of backing up all of my computer files (mostly because the giant collection of all things Who takes a while to transfer around ( Read more... )

So, I've been watching this old German science fiction show called Raumpatrouille Orion. It's basically original Star Trek except with slightly better special effects and more emphasis (so far, anyway) on earth-defense than on space exploration. The dialogue's campy, the acting's okay, and the plots are a little haphazard (probably made more so by ( Read more... )
