Ok, ok. I know I've been really bad about posting...so here's a recap of my last few days.
Saturday
Kristy and I went and picked Florian up from his house and then drove the the city. It was very windy and was snowing...brrr!! The snow wasn't really sticking, but it sure was annoying when it hit you in the face. We walked around the mall for a bit and then we and got some coffee. Carmel Macchiatos...mmmm! We also bought some cookies and muffins. From there we went to a huge book store and then went to the top of a huge tower to look over the city...very cold!! And we discovered Florian is afraid of lifts (elevators). lol. It was quite entertaining. After the tower we went to a French art exhibition and then to sushi! I was very excited that they had California rolls in Germany :) After that we went to H&M and walked around for awhile before stopping by the market so Florian could buy stuff to make for lunch on Sunday. We then were too lazy to go out clubbing, so we went to bed and got some sleep. :)

Sunday
Kristy had to go to her grandmother's for lunch, so Florian came over to make me lunch. Since he's a vegetarian he made some Malaysian noodle thing, with rice noodles, onions, lemon grass, etc. and a salad, which was extremely good. He also made cocktails with coke and kumquats and limes and such...and some kind of alcohol, but I can't read German very well, so I don't know what it was. All I know is that it tasted good. Above is the recipe for the noodle thing, if you can decipher it, you should make it :) It was quite good. That night Antje and Marcos came over and we went out to Mexican food...and I was able to order without any help!! lol :) It was quite amazing!

Monday
I just lounged around all day since everyone was working. In the evening some people came over for dinner and we talked about politics and such. Nothing too out of the ordinary.

Tuesday
I went shopping in town to day by myself and survived!! I was able to communicate enough in German to buy a new purse, a planner, a birthday gift and card, a pen, a notebook, candy, and kinder eggs (for Ashley). I was quite impressed with myself. More people came over for dinner and the people who I hadn't met yet bought me an English-German translator. lol. Tomorrow I'm going to the fitness center and then to ice cream and then at 11pm Miriam and I are going to the disko where we will be until 7am...crazy huh?! I better get some zzz's in tonight!!

I hope this helped make up for the lack of updates.

I love you all!!
