And the Snow is never ending
For the past two days I’ve done real work! I even have one of the fancy keys to get in our office, I cannot get in to the lab because an ID card takes two weeks.
What I’m currently doing at work is what I was most nervous for. Not because I was scared I couldn’t [...]
Germans Love Paperwork
That is a stereotype that is true. Very true. Annoyingly true.
This past week I started work, didn’t do much at all because of Supervisor things (aka she wasn’t there). But I did find out the project I thought I was doing, I won’t really be doing. I now have a few projects I will be [...]
New Phase
This past week has been so much fun. I discovered Toytown Germany which I shouldn’t really be spending all my time with because it’s for English speakers, but I don’t really care at this point. Anyways. I found this site and the people are so nice and so moving forward on actually attaining more of [...]
Good Luck!
For any future-CBYX’ers out there, I know the interviews start this week so Good Luck to everyone!
Small mini-update before Breakfast:
Last week was the Mid-Year Seminar, which was great for meeting everyone again and full of seminars ranging from rather boring to fairly interesting. It’s pretty depressing to see that this year has gone by so [...]
Almost January
And that is quite scary. But December was an interesting month at least.
Christmas was this past week. That was exciting and new. My host mother’s mom and aunt came and the next day her cousin’s family came. That was on Christmas Eve (or Heiligabend) which is the time when you open presents here in Germany. [...]
Update
I really need to work on the consistently updating thing. I can’t believe I’m almost done with the Schooling phase. I feel like I should have more time left in this year. I don’t want it to end! (Granted, I’m not even half way done, I don’t care)
Updates!
Thanksgiving in Erfurt was amazing. It was so [...]
Thoughts
Reasons why I hate Germany at the moment:
My Train decided that as it pulled into my station it was not going to go to my school’s stop, in fact it is impossible to go to my stop today without buying a taxi
It is -4C, with a wind chill of -11C (for all you Farenheit people [...]

Erfurt and Neuschwanstein
Praktikum
So Friday I went to an Interview with Dr. Binder, although it was more like okay you will work here what would you like to do? And by what would you like to do, it was clear which one she really wanted me to do. So I have a job but I’m so nervous about [...]
Praktikum!
So, it’s been a really long time since I posted. Almost a month! What has happened since then? Classes… Lots of classes. A trip to Neuschwanstein, a Halloween Party, a few Stammtisches, a lot of Nintendo Wii playing and Soap Opera watching, and a german movie.
Most exciting news first: I think I found a Praktikum! [...]
