First of all: another German friend visited me a week ago and it was really good to see her again after a few months! We made a trip to DC, went to a museum, some monuments - and Vapiano. Same as in Germany, I know, but always great! It could have been better because we were both feeling a little bit sick - for whatever reason.
The past 2 weeks have been so stuffed that I am grateful for all the free time I can get. I am actually enjoying some time alone while writing this, listening to/watching one of my new Dave Matthews Band live DVD's!
Oh and also my parents sent me a huge (care) package from Germany! Wrapped up Christmas presents, some clothes and way more important: A German beer glass and German chocolate! I was craving the good stuff(Americans are terrible at making choc, no offense)!
What also was in the package:
How great is that?! I feel like a twelve year-old.. which is actually a good thing!
After having felt like a grown-up with discovering my love for cooking and having the ability to actually fix toilets or take care of finances etc... it was great!
I wanted to share more pictures with you guys(a great Christmas picture of all my housemates in the makin'), but I worked so much in the last 2 weeks that I did not really take too many good ones..
Oh I almost forgot: Thanksgiving was great! We ate the usual turkey/stuffing/pumpkin-pie things and I felt a little sick after all that. It was an honor to spent one of the most remarkable American holidays with L'Arche! Looking forward to bringing the tradition back home(yeah I know it does not really make sense as a German, but I love turkey)!
So lovely peeps I now need some rest and the live version of "The Dreaming Tree" from the DMB is coming up(it's f**king insane!!) and I have to be prepared!
Since it's Jim Morrison's birthday, this is the end:
Love y'all!
