Whoa, I got some crazy hits on my website for James Blunt lyrics. If I wanted more people to hit my diaryland, I guess all I have to do is quote the latest star out of Britain and suddenly my audience is increased tenfold!
In other news, I did some Christmas shopping and I just can't wait to go home and give everyone their presents! Speaking of spending money on other people, it's been confirmed: British guys own me. Maynard sent me an email requesting yet another postcard from me, but this time he wants one that has been sent from Berlin. I love my mentor, but, damn, he is one needy man. I really don't think any of his other students treat him as well as I do.
Back to the Christmas shopping.
I budgeted myself so well these last few weeks! I impressed myself how much money I have left to splurge. Yesterday, Katrina, Amy, and I went ice skating in Heumarkt and it was loads of fun. Honestly, it doesn't take much for me to be happy.
Anyway, we went shopping afterwards and I bought myself a new book, Porno by Irvine Welsh. I thought it'd be great fun, seeing that it is the sequel to Trainspotting, but the damned book is exasperating me! I never read Trainspotting... I just saw the movie so I never had to deal with trying to translate Spud's fucking Scottish accent. In some very remote way, it resembles English, but not really. Overall though, it's a pretty good book. I heart you, black humor.
13 days until I leave for home.
