Greetings,
It's a sunny Sunday here in Münster. I couldn't stand it to be inside, so I walked to the internet cafe to check email and such. Its happy hour so its like 1.50€/hr to use the internet. Much better than lugging my laptop to the nearest WLAN hotspot, hmm??
Osnabrück was cool, I spent a total of 3€ and the lady finally stamped my rail pass. Good exercise walking around all day, for sure! Mom, I got you a postcard :-)
A week or so ago I bought the Neues Leben Übersetzung des Neues Testaments, which is the German version of the New Living Translation... last night I read 1 John and it meant something completely different to me. German in general as a language is very direct, no frills. I don't have the book with me, but at some point I will translate some of it for you guys so you can see the difference. It was pretty wild.
I finally washed my laundry yesterday, ha ha ha... I really mean it when I say people don't care as much here as they do in the USA... i wore the same pants at least 4 times and no one noticed, I hardly did, either. Heike has a dryer but it is loud so my washed clothes are currently hanging on a "laundry drying rack" in my room. She does some weird things, ha ha... for example I am almost certain she flushed leftovers down the toilet once. She also has a Bart Simpson sticker above the toilet, and Bart is mooning. I love living there though because she could care less about how messy my room is, and she never gives me a hard time about anything. We talk all the time, too, for example last night we talked about global warming.
I LOVE ICE CREAM and it is soooo cheap. You can get an ice cream cone for 70 cent. It is great.
Well tomorrow it is back to school, but only til the break on Thursday, then I am going to see my cousins in Ingolstadt. We'll most likely be in Munich over the weekend. I booked a night at Backpackers Düsseldorf the night before I leave. I will most likely try to get a Taxi to take me to the hostel and then to the airport the next day... my suitcase is simply too heavy to lug through trainstations and on and off different trains.
Speaking of trains, yesterday on the way to Osnabrück the train was so packed, the conductor had to request that some people go take the slower trains or else it wasn't going anywhere, lol... we still ended up standing in the hallway cramped though, but Osnabrück is only about 25 minutes away from Münster.
Well I am going to post the pictures from Osnabrück now so hopefully those are enjoyable for you...
Until next time,
Caitlin
