Becoming German: November 2010
http://germanyjames.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
The Exchange Year and Beyond. What's worse than not getting mail? Knowing that people have sent you mail, but not having received it yet. Damn you, slow international shipping! After the concert Markus and I ran into a random gas station on the way back to the car, and I just about fell over when I saw that they had Mountain Dew Code Red! I bought a 4 pack, of course. So that was my Friday. Pretty great if I do not say so myself. That's all I've got at the moment. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Becoming German: November 2013

The Exchange Year and Beyond. Two Weeks from Twenty. At the request of my grandmother and great Aunt, I've decided to take some time out of my "busy" schedule and give everybody an update on what I've been up to in the last few weeks. Towards the end of October there wasn't much going on. I'd really settled in, met a bunch of cool people, and was finally in a normal routine, which was nice. But really, it seems. All in all it was a pretty interesting conversation. On November 9th I woke up at some ridicu...

The Exchange Year and Beyond. So I had my Birthday. On which I turned 17. It started out with my parents coming into my room at 06:00 with a cake, and singing Happy Brithday to me, and giving me some super awesome HSV tattoos! Then I got ready, after that we had breakfast 'together', and I opened up my presents. From Christoph, Johannes, and Markus I got a ticket to the Hurricane Festival. Me on My birthday with my cake and presents in the background. Random picture of Lennart, Markus, and me. So it's be...

The Exchange Year and Beyond. So slowly buy surely we are coming down to the last few days before I head off to Germany and the beautiful city of Regensburg. I'd like to start off by letting you know that to the right of this post there are links to some awesome blogs of other people currently living abroad. Check them out! How am I getting there? How will I pay for things? Next post will come once I'm in Germany, but it'll probably won't be until after I've been there for a few weeks. Wake up and LIVE.

The Exchange Year and Beyond. Das Ende ist mein Anfang. I just realized that my last blog post included both Thanksgiving and Christmas, which is how I knew that it was probably time for an update. Quick updates from end of last post:. I mentioned having exams in February, which for the most part went very well, but you can’t be successful in everything all of the time. I spent a week in ‘Munich’ with YFU! I interviewed for a job at UND, and didn’t get it. All in all, a really great time. It was, however...

The Exchange Year and Beyond. Für eine kleine Ewigkeit. This text is also written in German and is located under the video! Both text say pretty much the same thing but if you can, I would recommend reading both of them. Diese Text gibt's auch auf Deutsch und kann unter der Video gefunden werden. Die Texten sind mehr oder weniger gleich, aber wenn du kannst, würde ich es empfehlen die Beide zu lesen. Waiting for my train. Town Musicians of Bremen. With Markus in Philadelphia. I thank everybody who follow...

The Exchange Year and Beyond. Where'd the snow go? In the last month.and a half. quite a bit has happened! And thanks to my new Journal, I can remember most of it! So sometime in mid-January, not 100% positive on the date, Christoph, Markus, Lennart, and I went to Hannover to watch our hockey team, The Hamburg Freezers, play. Which would have been super awesome, had they not of lost 0-5. Although they lost it was still a lot of fun to go and watch them play an away game. Berlin (YFU); May 24th-27th.

The Exchange Year and Beyond. Winter is Coming (? For everybody who may have been wondering if I am still alive, the answer is yes, I am alive and well. And for anybody who enjoys the post, you can thank my grandma and the Z for reminding me to write it! After eating we spent some time in the kitchen, digesting and drinking some beer to help, before heading to a bar to bring an amazing evening to a perfect end. Sadly, he couldn't be saved. So I took his heart out. Before I was off with Johannes to a frie...
