"Who enjoys the moment, enjoys the whole life" -->I saw this in a cafe the other day, and I like it...i find it so true...


Happy 4th of July to all of my friends/family in the States (and to those currently out of the states as well =) )!!

Hard to believe it’s actually the 4th of July, as I sit here in my room studying, watching the rain come crashing down.

I believe this must be my first rainy 4th of July in 20 years…and perhaps one of the first with weather not 100* outside. (Although I love heat like this…maybe I’m crazy, I get it from my mom ;) )

my dad's band playing..


and my 3rd of july party, where I was housesitting.

Things are going well here…Katie gets here to visit me on Tuesday, and I am in the meanwhile preparing for finals (and research/homework for Pacific Uni), which all hit in the same week. 2 oral tests: Sportbiologie and Anatomie…and 3 written: Advanced German, German culture/history class, and Phonics (learning the signs of how the language is spoken). And in the meantime, lots of traveling is taking place as well…I’ll post pics as I go.

Here's a few just from around Germany:








Enjoy the holiday everyone!!!
