I made a new friend today while watering the plants. Jento ("yento") is the neighbor's dog.

So squishy!!!! )

My job has been passable I suppose...my work partner is difficult to work with :P Apparently we're providing some good data though, best of any teams out there or something, so that's encouraging.

I've been doing good....busy with picking up a couple of summer online classes and work and the like, though I'm home with my family for the 4th for a week now. None of my cousins my age are coming up, so I'll probably hang out with Aaren a lot while he's here

How's things going in Germany?

sorry to hear about the work partner, but at least you're doing something useful for your job! what classes are taking online?

Germany's great! I'm really happy here, getting adjusted to driving around and making a weekly routine. Sundays are critical for setting up for the week in terms of laundry and organization. I'm going to start a PBwiki soon with all of my to-do items. If you haven't seen it, I recommend checking it out! pbwiki.com (peanut butter wiki)

I've been working quite a bit, trying to help put out the fires before I can really dig in and do some pro-active work. I'm looking forward to the point where I can gauge and plan my work while knowing deadlines in advance. The past week we've received deadlines for a report or project the day before it was due, so it was pretty crazy.

Definitely keep me updated with things! Please tell the family I said hello :) And tell Carrie I'm wishing her the best while she's at camp.

I'm taking World Regional Geography and Intro to Business right now....I needed 3 more gen-ed classes this fall to finish them off, but realized I could just take a couple this summer and be done with them that much faster! None have tests..only quizzes in my business class, but my geography one is 100% essay questions! From the syllabus it seemed like he was gunna grade them really hard too, but so far I've gotten full credit on everything ( ... )

Good luck with the classes. I'm sure you'll do just fine :)

yeah, it's been rough getting in sync out here in germany, but it looks very certain that I'll be back. As soon as my work permit goes through, I'll be flying back out for a longer period of time. so this'll be permanent soon, hopefully.

PBwiki can used for a bunch of different things; teaching, online resume or portfolio, recipes, newsletters, etc. I'm using it for several different things right now, maybe I'll post about it later. You can check it out here at: http://pbwiki.com/

I started mine at: http://planyourwork.pbwiki.com/ should be updating it over the weekends.

Keep in touch! :)
