oops, accidentaly posted nothing with that last one.
but, i haven't been up to much the past 2 days. yesterday Justine and I went into town to get groceries and some school supplies. We also booked a weekend trip to Ireland for Oct 10-12, which im really excited for! I stopped by the student travel office and was able to get a million and a half brochures about different options, which I'm getting excited about. I need to travel as much as I can while I'm here (because who knows when I'll be back), so hopefully it will all work out. Some musts on my list: Bath + Stonehenge, London, this mini-cruise thing across to Amsterdam or Rotterdam or Bruges... any suggestions?
Attempted to go for a walk into town this morning, I've been curious to see how long it might take. Only it started to pour down rain 20 minutes into it, so we turned around and came back, a little bummed about it, as that was going to be my "big exercise" for the past few days. the rain of course stopped when I got back to my room, with the bottom half of my jeans soaked, and my hood dripping with water (and I was using an umbrella). Oh well, I still love the rain! (we'll see how i feel about it in a few weeks).
International student party, Icebreaker thing tonight, which should be fun. Hopefully the rain will subside for that as well, because that wouldn't be fun...
My accuweather says its sunner and 85 at home, jealous a bit...

Dear Natalie! How exciting to read about all your adventures! You seem to be doing just fine. That's great!
I went to visit Elke today for a couple hours and she told me all about your trip in Germany together.
Be very careful and take care of yourself. God be with you. As always, You are in my prayers every day.
Love, Oma
hang in there sweetie, it will get better as you learn to navigate their system and get used to the cultural differences... get some rest, exercise a bit each day, get out of the room and meet as many folk as you can early on to grow your options for company and learning about people and their homelands...
brugge is an interesting town for medieval and renaissance era architecture and canals... brussels may be interesting if you did some advanced research... southern england, scotland, liverpool for the beatles stuff, normandy, cotswolds for a quiet get away, warwick castle, oxford, stratford upon avon, london over and over again... so many options, plan it out and budget it out and take a friend!
olivia at oxy says hi, as do all the relatives both here and in germany.... thank you notes to Germany friends and fam?
good to see you again today,
love dad
