Hallo Freunde!
I've got to say, I'm getting really good at writing these posts in airports. Batting two for four on posting blog updates in airports. This time happens to be because I have lots of extra time on my hands, because delays. For those who weren't aware already and are interested in knowing, my Spring Break started today, and I will be visiting my lovely girlfriend Emily, and I can't wait to see her and Galway, Ireland, in general.
Anywho, I promised my adoring fans I would provide the millions of you with what you crave: more stories. So here we go.
While not quite as eventful as the first couple weeks, these last two weeks provided their own excitement and challenges. Mostly revolving around the DSH and my preparation for it. I've mentioned it briefly already, but just to clarify, getting DSH-3 (the highest score possible) is incredibly uncommon from out program, but I've been working my booty off, and I'm feeling confident that no matter what happens with this exam, I can say I did my best. Not quite the best story, but not a whole lot has happened.
I also took the oral portion of the exam today, and I feel fairly confident that it went at least decently well. I only had a question that truly stumped me, but they rephrased and I was able to answer it just fine. The topic was about what our opinions are on everyday rituals: whether they are good or bad, what sorts of rituals we partake in, etc. All I could really think of was brushing my teeth, showering, and going to class, but with a little thought, I came up with the word for to pray (beten, if you were wondering), and they seemed like it was a clever, or at the very least uncommon answer.
I'm looking forward to going to see some other parts of Europe, but the longer I'm in Germany, the more comfortable I feel with being here. I miss being home, but I also love being here. Hopefully things work out with international law, because I would love more than anything to come back here on a regular basis.
Stay clear, friends.
UPDATE: (13/04/2015)
I will just come up with a second post because there is a lot of new information to reveal. And apparently this one decided it was never going to go through and I had to re-write it from scraps that Blogger decided I could have back. #ThanksObama
