post-midterm/final update... hah

i am doing good. this weekend i leave for turkey on sunday. ed's good. we have been having fun chililng in lueneburg. berlin was great, have you seen the pictures. i want to live there or atleast go back again. my mouth is so-so, not worse, but not better. ed wakes me up whenever i start to grind my teeth so i think today we are going to Hamburg to look for a sports store and buy a temporary mouth peice or something.

this morning ed and i are making my flatemates an american breakfast, with eggs and hasbrowns and cinnamin rolls. haha the german breakfast is like bread and thats it. haha it will be fun. ed and i also cooked for them yesterday too. I had a big midterm yesterday and a final today. the midterm was bullcrap. it was so hard and long. but whatever that class doesnt count towards anything, and i mean i didnt fail but who knows and i have stopped caring about that class. and then my final went fine today.

next week i am heading to turkey until wednesday and then on wednesday i fly from istanbul to vienna and its so cool how god works out things. as of tuesday day i had no where to stay in vienna and now the guy who leads my bible study has friends in vienna who are willing to let me stay with them! I am going to try and get tickets to an opera too while i am there. I wont be there for long because then I am heading to Wuerstburg in Barvria to visit my mom's co-teacher (at oldtrail) sister in law. weird i know, but it will be fun.

Today it is sunny. like real sunshine. its been forever since i have seen it and its wonderful.

On wednesday ed and i went to hamburg and we went to the Dialog in the Dark Museum. And its this museum where you are blind for an hour and half and you are guided through different scenerios (like through a forest, on a street, crossing a street, in a market, over a bridge, on a boat, in a cafe) and you have to be blind the whole time. its pitch black. it was scary at first but then i really liked it. You forget how much you take your eyesight for granted. I would really like to re-create something like that for my residents or something when i return home. then we went to my langauge partner fashion show. She is a model and it was alot of fun to see her! We were laughing and she too because the clothes she has to model are soo ugly, they are like old rich people clothes. ed and i were the youngest in the crowd of about 40 years. haha oh well. it was fun. My langauage partner is the red head.(below).

Today i think we might go to hamburg to Ikea!!! and go shopping (that way i can send some stuff back to the states with ed, because lord knows i wont have enough room!!).

I have no idea what to do for this summer, but I know that God has something up his sleeve....

Hows everything there??? whats new!!!

hash browns and cinnamon rolls sound amazing right about now.

berlin looks and sounds like it was an amazing time! and vienna and istanbul? good grief. i am so jealous.

did ed shave his head slightly or am i going insane?

and good job on the midterm/final stuff. how much longer are you in europe for?

things are gloomy here. well, not really, just today. the weather's getting warmer and the sun shows itself a lot more often (which makes everyone like 10 times happier). but today its raining. OGT week is this week, which means everyone except amy gets out at 12:30...spring break is soon too, and i cant wait; i'm going to florida with adrian. and i've never been to florida, so yeah.

i dont know why i keep writing you novels??
have fun stay happy...and don't grind your teeth!

Hi Allison,

The UA Spring Break is coming up soon. Both Joe and Bethany T. will be heading south with Campus Focus to New Orleans for Katrina Relief with Operation Nehemiah from March 17-25. It is so good to know that you continue to trust God for your present and future life and you can see clearly how He works details out that you have no control over!!
