Deutschland hat gewonnen!

Friday, June 30th, 2006

In a crazy, breathtaking game, Deutschland beat Argentina 5:3. It came down to the penalty kicks. Whoa! What a game. Walking home is always fun after Deutschland wins cause people are driving around with flags and screaming, and its real easy to get into the spirit. Some kids stood at a street light with their [...]

End of German Class

Tuesday, June 27th, 2006

German class is all done now. We had the test this morning. I don’t have to wonder too long how I did because we get the papers back tomorrow. The other class that I’m taking (Art History) will have its Final tomorrow. Amazing how quickly a month can go by. Everyone was all done by [...]

Samstag and Strawberries!

Sunday, June 25th, 2006

Saturday was the day of the big Game. Deutschland geggen Sweden. It started off slowly enough for us. In the morning we went to the Strawberry fields where you bring your own box / bucket / carrying thingee and you can get ultra-ripe strawberries at a slight discount. The weather in Stuttgart is absolutely fantastic, [...]

WMD’s Found!

Friday, June 23rd, 2006

It seems that those elusive Weapons of Mass Destruction, alleged to have been in Iraq, have finally come to light. Although they were discovered a little too late for a small but brave squad of Americans, the world is still grateful that they turned up at all. As it turns out the weapons were not [...]

Thurday Pix

Thursday, June 22nd, 2006

Walking through Schlossplatz on Thursday afternoon, heading to the gym of all places, I ran into a raucous crowd of Croatian fans. They had the place completely packed in a sea of white and red checkers. The sheer amount of people was staggering. I climbed up the steps by the Kuntsmuseum and took some pixs. [...]

Noch ein Mittwoch

Wednesday, June 21st, 2006

If you look closely at this page you will see that I changed the site up a bit. The sucky home-page is gone. I might bring back the weather bubbles though, they were at least useful… Those pictures were way too big. Also gone is that useless guest page, which was made even more useless [...]

Heute

Tuesday, June 20th, 2006

I forgot my tap shoes at home so I didn’t go to tap class. Schade. So I hung out yesterday with the guys. Emir, Nick John and the rest of the crazy crew from the Deutschkürs. They party pretty hard. I can’t keep up with them. This is Emir, the Turkish guy. Deutschland plays later [...]

Bild

Monday, June 19th, 2006

I got the pictures working!! So here are a few for you. This doesn’t work half as well as it does in WordPress 2. So it only reminds me how badly I need to upgrade… But I can’t decide where to put the pix. With the old blogs, or make new posts? I don’t know… [...]

Wochenende

Monday, June 19th, 2006

It was true. Germany won a very exciting match and we all got free bier!! It wasn’t the greatest beer but hey, you can’t beat free can you? Thursday was a nice holiday, but I had to get up early to get to the Lake Constance Bus… I was up since 6 am, but I [...]

Mittwoch blues

Wednesday, June 14th, 2006

I’m a bit tired right now, I have a few hours to kill, tomorrow is a holiday and I don’t have class right now. Tonight the Deutsch team takes on Poland in the World Cup, so that should be pretty exciting. Going to watch it at Universität Hohenheim. Allegedly if Germany wins everyone gets a [...]
