I really wanted to update this before the year ended, so I’m glad I get to. Next year I’m going to try to make this a lot more interesting, and after this post they should all include a picture or song or something to make the posts more fun to read. Constructive criticism welcome.
Quick update: Xmas was really awesome, and I enjoyed the time spent with my family. It was really...
My last day in Berlin was really nice. Anke and I checked out the Guggenheim, got dinner with Hope and Alex, then went to Luzia’s. The excitement of being home has overshadowed my sadness over the fact that I may not see a lot of the NYU Berliners for a long while, but I’ll see how long it lasts.

I did a bunch of work on Thursday and...

This past weekend the kids from Cologne came and I missed a few events, but I went to the dinner and a talk on anti-Americanism and it was pretty interesting. It was nice seeing the German...
Next semester I’m going to try to update this more, I swear. I already forgot a lot of stuff I did with my parents, but I’m going to try to remember as best I can. Tuesday they were at Potsdam all day, then I went out with them and Jenny to Yellow Sunshine in the rain which was fun, and then we walked around to go to Luzia but it was too crowded so they were lame and went back to their...
