Castles, Cobblestones and Crepes: December 2011

Travellllllllllllllll!!!!!!!!**!!!*

I've got four trips already planned.. Amsterdam this weekend, Paris next weekend with one of my Saudi friends, Istanbul new years, and Morocco in March.. And plenty more to get booked!!

Do they have thanksgiving in Germany¿¿¿¿¿

So some of us americans and a few foreigners put together a Thanksgiving dinner. It turned out really great. There was quite a few people and the food was great. And we even got turkey.It was super good meal. I only had to bring bread, but I had class right before our dinner so I didn't have much of a choice. It was a good time, we sat and ate until we were stuffed and drank wein, then had deserts afterwards. Then later that night I went to Tangente, a club, with Lavinia. And I saw the most beautiful man ever. Ugghhh shoulda went and got him.
Oh yes, the weekend before, I met some American business dudes at the bar. So I went out with them the rest of that Friday night and went out with two of them the next night. The next night we all went down to the river and Lavinia and I jumped in!!!! Ya, it was little cold, but I was drunk so didn't really matter. But I would've done it sober anyways :D

Then, for the rest of the weekend I went to Luisa's house. Didn't do much. Got some good sleep. And Friday night Luisa and I and some of her friends drove to Michelstadt for the Weihnachtsmarkt, but when we got there at 8:30, it was already closed :(, but we still got glühwein out of it. Glühwein is like wein warmed up. So then we drove back home, got some ice cream and wein and went to Luisas and just hung out. Good relaxing weekend. We also took her dogs out on a walk, they get super excited for walks.

my move

Shanon came to visit me for the weekend.... Fun weekend and no sleep.. But it was worth it. She took the train here from Freiburg. So I was meeting her at the train station, then she got off the wrong stop, but it was okay, because another train was coming and it was literally only 2 minutes away. So then we get on the bus back to my place, and then I notice after riding it for a while, we're back at the train station! Wow, so for some reason that bus which I normally take, was on a special route, that was only going in a circle from there to Bismark Platz. So then we got off and waited for another bus and finally got to my place. Then we went over to the neighbors and had a few drinks then headed out to the bars. And we ended up getting home at like around 5 am!! Then got back up at 10 because we were going to Schwetzingen, just a little town like 10 km from here. We met up with Meg, Olivia, Sinaed, Nik, Victoria and Deanne. The castle wasn't that big and didn't really look like a castle but the garden outside was flippen huge and beautiful and amazing. Then Shanon had to head back to Freiburg that night. And I was so tired I went home and passed out.

As of right now, things are going pretty good. Got some good friends, classes are pretty easy and I have a blast every weekend. I bought a new camera. I wanna start learning and getting into photography, then when I get back I wanna do underwater photography. I took one class last year and I really liked it. BRRRR it's starting to get cold now. Some days it's okay and not to bad, but then some are colllddd...
