Today I saw an old man in a wheelchair which had a license plate on the back of it. I thought it was really strange cause it looked as if it was meant to be there and not just decoration. Crazy huh? I wonder if he's ever been pulled over.
My classes are going well. One particular classroom is very small, but one of the walls is lined with windows, giving me a wonderful view of the Alps and ensuring I daydream right through class. One morning as I entered the class room the sun was just coming up, which created a red outline around the tops of the mountains and I swear to you it looked exactly like Mordor. And I know that sounds geeky, but really, it did. It is just a shame I didn't have my camera. Another class I had is observed by students at the university who wish to become teachers. They stand behind a two way glass mirror, which sorta makes me feel like a science experiment. Not only that but there are cameras and microphones all around the room, so it is also like I'm on a reality TV show. I feel like a lab rat on the Real World every time I enter that damned classroom.
The Christmas Market has begun! I will be checking out all the hip stuff that Konstanz's Christmas Market has to offer. As soon as I can find someone to hold the camera, I intend on taking a video tour of the Christmas Market for all of you at home, so look for that in the next few days.
Ok, I started writing this blog on Friday and it is now Sunday, so just pretend you've left your computer for two days. Alright, last night I went to a rock club with Keith, Sarah, another Sarah, Sarah-Jayne (there were a bunch of Sarahs now that I think of it), Jade, Gita, and Tania. It was a rocking good time, no pun intended, and, despite the banal musical selection, we danced our little faces off all night. Keith and Sarah left the club at around 230 in the morning and the rest of us weren't far behind. Smelly, long haired, rock kids started to show up so we figured that was our sign to exit. On the way home we stopped at Burger King for a early morning snack. I was too tired to chew so I didn't eat anything. I returned home around 4 in the morning (Kristen cover your ears) to half naked French girls running around my apartment. Pete, my roommate, had a couple of friends from France come visit him and, although scantily clad, weren't so bashful. Oh the French. I think I can safely say it was the best night I've had in Konstanz since I arrived. I tried Absinth too, by the by, which tasted like pure rubbing alcohol, but I'm glad to say I've tried it. All in all it was a good night and we'll definitely be going back to the rock club soon. I have not yet gotten my hands on the pictures from last evening, but when I do I'll be sure to post an embarrassing one or three. Till later!
P.S. Look what I've done to my room. Not so bad, I think.
That was then...
This is now!!!
That was then...
This is now!! I banged my head on that freaking wood piece two seconds before this picture took, thus everyone laughing.
And here's a nice picture of the moon. Goodnight!!!
