Mission Scaredy Cat compromised...
I’ve decided mission scaredy cat is over…for now. I made it to the shower and out the door without being caught. Its when I came back from my errands grocery shopping I let my scaredy cat guard down.
I thought the coast was clear besides this Per guy that I couldn’t quiet tell was even still here or not. Lisa had left some baked goods (SCORE) and a note saying she had left for...
Who's a Scaredy Cat?
Me.
So the other day I met my one and only other girl roommate. Her name is Lisa and she seems very nice, and we had a decent conversation in German together. After the small chit chat for a minute I began to say in German. Sorry my German isn’t that good and she responded with oh well I think your German is better than my English kind of things. That’s when I realized I’m...
Dear Germany
I really wish you would invest in elevators for people who have to move from one 5th floor apartment to another 6th floor apartment.
Also where did all this crap come from?

Well not quiet yet but I’m loading up the last suitcase to face a soon dreaded departure. Today Natascha knocked on my door and said she was going to make apple pancakes and if I would like some. This is the love and nurturing I get here…why on earth would I ever want to leave. Not to say these new roommates won’t be, but they are mainly guys and I...
The truth is I love you. Can’t stop and won’t stop ever loving you....

One of the great things about being a design student is seeing the amazing work others do. My two friends Cristina and Pedro (from Spain) made this video for a class here in Germany. I’m so lucky to know such talented people, this right here is a reminder of one of the reasons I wanted to come to Germany.

Gone Native
I officially no longer end my sentences in German with periods or exclamation points. I now end it like they will with :-) or ;-).

Deutsch Flughafen 101
(German Airport 101)
Today I went with Tiffany to go get her brother and his wife at the airport. Turns out they werent on the flight we were hoping they would be. So we had to wait awhile and watched some other flights come in.
I tell you I felt like I was watching the first 2 minutes of the movie Love Actually. This one flight came in from London and these two girls were jumping and down for...
True Story
Well this happened about a week ago but my friends and I were out dancing one evening at a club called Pascha. I’ve learned something new about the whole bar/clubbing scene in Germany. Unlike anywhere else you go if a guy orders you a drink that means the following things.
1. He finds you attractive
2. He pays
3. Despite whether you think he is attractive or not you are to stay and talk...

Ich glaube dass meine deutsch ist besser jetz
Well check out that lengthy sentence folks. Fyi I can not take credit if that is even a proper sentence…but its a sentence damnit. All it means is I belieive that my german is better now.
I keep finding myself while hanging out with germans understanding more and actually speaking to them. However its normally simple stuff like talking about learning the language and stuff. Nothing about...
Honestly I dont know how I managed doing this. However last night was my first night having sauer kraut in Germany. I know! Trust me its not like I went out of my or anything. Its just one of those things where its not as common as we invision it to be. Kind of like these giants pretzels. Maybe its cause I’m not living in a city but still Hildesheim isnt like some village.
Well maybe...
Ibiza here I come!
The Spanish have decided to take us to an Island called Ibiza. FINALLY! I’m always much excited to going to countries that have this thing we call sun. Such a rare thing here still in Germany. The past two days I look out my window and there was nothing but gray skies.
Days like that make it seem like trips to Italy and Ibiza couldnt come soon enough.
Yes going back to Italy again but this...
