Excited for Beauty

I had lunch with a new friend on Friday, Kerstin. She lives in Koblenz but is getting her degree here. I'll say this was my first full-on conversation with someone in German, and it went just great. She got me all excited about the city... there seems to be every beautiful thing there...castles, rivers, forests, mountains! Loveliness all over! So NOT Orlando. I'm pretty sick of being here.

Kerstin said her parents have some items at home I can use while I'm in Koblenz, like bedclothes and towels and such. Things I'll definitely need!! That would be great.

Mom and I need to get a hotel room in Fort Myers for the Münster trip... need to get on that...

My hanging cosmetic bag came in the mail the other day! It is WUNDERBAR... coolest gadget ever, next to my new cell!

Another thing Kerstin said was that no one goes to church in Germany... it is also very boring. Only old people go. So I probably won't go. I need to figure something else out though... it will take MAJOR discipline but I NEED to guard my heart while I am there!!

That's all for now, its almost 1am and I have to get up in 6 hours!

Scammed!

Well I tried to sell my Dell Laptop for money for the trip, but it didn't work out so well. Some loser on Ebay tried to scam me by sending me a fake PayPal notice. What a moron. I caught on of course, but only after I'd sent the package. Fortunately, I was able to retrieve the package. I'm not sure if I can get my money back for shipping, though... I'll fight for it, lame if I can't but at least I still have my computer...
