This is officially my first blog on the internet that's not on MySpace, and it feels slightly dorky but at the same time englighting. I know (or think) mostly friends will visit, so I feel I can be a little more open in describing my thoughts...and you're my friends so hopefully you won't be too bored. We all know I've gone though some intensly personal and sad times by leaving the United States, and everyone who's given me so much support and love I am eternally grateful.
I've found out about some of my placements; Radolfzell for the first two months in language classes at the Carl Duisberg University. It looks absolutly beautiful, lots of outdoors things - huge lake, bikes, nature. If you know me that makes me nervous, who knows, maybe my inner Heidi will emerge? After that, onto some place in the "Bundesland" of Baden-Wuerttemberg in the southwest. Not sure what town...but I'll be into the something similar to a community college working my way to some "Zertifikaten". Mid-January I move to the wonderful, and my most favorite city of Berlin to work at Berlin-Partner GmbH as an intern (that is, if my interview goes okay in the fall).
I'm trying to maintain my sanity - figure out what I need to bring, how I should bring it, how much I should bring - and how in the hell will I find some decent deoderant over there? We all know the standards aren't quite up to par. I've experienced this and it isn't pretty.
I received a card of good wishes that had a great quote that really sums up how I feel about leaving, and I know those around me feel the same.

On another note, don't expect to find me in Chicago July 13 - 18, I'll be with superstar DJ Chris Grant at the Love Parade in Berlin. Yes, I know, I'm moving there - but in the rare instance it does happen with me, I'm being spontaneous. He's going to be on a float and I can't miss it for the world.
