Where have I been?
Over the course of December and the beginning of January I did quite a bit of traveling with my parents. They came over mid-December and we went through Cologne to Munich, back up to Osnabrück for Christmas, and then down to Rome for New Years. After getting back and still having a week of Weihnachtsferien (break) left, I pretty much just hung out with Christine and waited for everyone else to get back.
After this whole trip I got to see another German city: Bielefeld. I got to see an old castle (more for the defense of the city than royal grandeur) and it was quite cool. Pictures may eventually come.
The language department here decided to attempt to rectify their crap German course by offering a tutorial for the Americans and Swedish who have been dissapointed with the course. As far as I am concerned, though, it's too little too late. The final is next week and we'll have had 2 tutorials before the final, and before we leave the total number of tutorials will be roughly 4.
