Weekend!
Yay for the weekend. This past week was quite lovely. Thursday I had my “interview”, which was really just me sitting for five minutes and her telling me that I will be living in a host family (which is exciting, and I’ll learn more about them tomorrow) and really not much else. But [...]
Fun Things
So many things. Today we went to Die Kartoffel (aka The Potato) and upon looking at the menu (and the dictionary) I realized they had latkes (aka Reibekuchen) with Lox (mit Lachs). Awesome.

Today I woke up [...]
Deutschland!

Everyone should be proud of me because I ate veggies last night. =D Today I met up with a bunch of people at the langauge school and we went to the Festival in town. Tomorrow [...]
