So I must appologize for my last post. There were a few factual errors (one of which I have clarified) but for the rest, realize it's not news, it's oppinion. Don't use this blog for evidence in a court of law (or anywhere else). I also forgot to include the entire purpose of the post (it's there now) so if you haven't done so already, go back and read it.
Time has been good to me lately. Last saturday evening Duane and Martha Conrad (two Americans that work here) celebrated Thanksgiving and invited me and several Germans over to their house. I ate myself silly and had a grand ol' time. What else are you supposed to do at Thanksgiving? It would have been nice to be with my own family but it did satisify that holiday for the year.
I also found out last weekend that there was going to be a conference of American voulenteers working for Campus für Christus Deutchland on Monday and Tuesday of this week. Now, technically, I'm not a CfC voulenteer but they invited me to go anyway, somewhat late notice but still nice. I went and spent two days with other Americans learning about how to deal with German culture, or that's what they learned. I learned how American I'm not and some ways of dealing with American culture. German culture comes fairly naturally for me and I find that somewhat odd. Odd but nice. The fellowship was nice as well. I learned how to actually play foosball with strategy and I played my first game of Settlers of Catán(sp?). Good times were had by all, well....the one girl was sick but I think she still enjoyed it.
Spontaneity and truth
