I woke up this morning to about a dozen statuses on Facebook saying it was snowing in Tübingen! I jumped up and rushing to the window to finnnndddddd....NOTHING! Apparently, it snowed very early this morning for about an hour and nothing stuck. Maybe we'll get lucky next time.
I am officially going to visit the Bushmanns for Christmas in Bavaria! Yay! And they suggested I bring a friend so I won't be alone on the train for 4 hours. I'm bringing Julia because her family's plans for visiting her for Christmas fell through, so she and I will be traveling together.
This weekend is Girls' Night once again!
The weekend of the 26th I'm going to visit Veronika in Stuttgart and we're going to the Weihnachtenfest! (Christmas festival!) I can't wait! and she's going to show me around Stuttgart, which will be really awesome because all I've seen of Stuttgart so far was the Volksfest in Oktober.
Classes are going just splendidly. I LOVE love LOVE my creative writing class. It's definately my favorite and all we do is write papers and corrected papers over and over again. Simple, but I love it. My conversation course is a bit tricky, but I'm warming up to it. We are basically learning 'spoken' German as opposed to 'written' German and believe me speaking and writing are two totally different concepts and sometimes I feel like I'm undoing everything I have learned in the past two years. We were just assigned a group project and my group is researching and presenting the different dialects in Germany! I'm really looking foward to it.
Otherwise, things are pretty slow going here. The temperature as fallen to about 3°C as a rough daily average so we're almost at freezing!
