Home » Germany » First week in Germany

Hi Everyone,<br />I finally got this thing up and running. Luckily I'm only a week late. I'm usally later than that. It's sooooo nice to be back in Germany. I've really missed being back here. This past week I've spent hanging out with friends and family. I got to celebrate Evy's birthday with her. =) That was soooo nice. Been to a couple party's, but mostly been chilling. Basti (my host-brother. I'm staying with my host-family from the first time I was in Germany for those of you that didn't know that) is in Spain right now (lucky dude). It's quite a bit warmer there than it is here. I had forgotten how quickly it gets cool here in Germany. Oh well. Marina (my host-sister) is now moved into her place in Bochum and started school yesterday. It was nice that we had a week to spend together and that I got to help move her in. Hopefully I'll have the chance to visit her a couple times. My German hasn't been too bad. The stuff I had forgotten is coming back (a little slower than I would like, but oh well). I can still understand everything, so that's good. Still not thinking in German and that kinda bugs me. I'm thinking its from spending a lot of the day home by myself right now. Ach, that too will come. I'm also starting to get ready to move to Trier. In exactly 2 weeks from today I'll be in my new place. Quite excited about that. =) I'll try to post pictures of my place as soon as I can for all of you. ..... There's really not a whole lot to write about from this week. Just a few interesting things:
