Finals = No Fun

I have a final on Monday morning which means no fun this weekend! I was invited to go to the Christmas Market in Bonn but decided to be good and stay home to study. I cleaned the whole apartment this morning which included sweeping, mopping, and wiping down everything in the bedroom, kitchen, bathroom, and the storage room. Then I went grocery shopping to get a few things since stores are closed on Sundays.

I still can't get over how rude some Germans are. If I am in the states and another lane opens up to cash out I will let the people who have been waiting longer than I have go in that line. In Germany people push their way to the front of the line. This old man was waiting in line behind me today with two items and when the other line opened up so he walked over to it when this middle aged man with a cart full of stuff almost ran him over to be the first person in the line. Unfortunately I can not speak my mind about this to people because I don't speak German plus I can be rude but not that rude! Things like that just make me mad.

After grocery shopping I finished decorating my room for Christmas. It isn't much but I don't see the point in spending a lot of money on decorations I will only use for one year. I know some of my family and friends want to see pictures so I will post a few at the bottom.


When I woke up this morning I found out that a bomb was found on the bottom of the Rhine river in Koblenz which is a city 45 minutes away by train. Everyone within a mile radius was asked to evacuate so they can try and defuse the bomb. Apparently this happens every once in awhile in Germany. Personally I think it is crazy! Here is the article about it: http://www.digitaljournal.com/article/315385

Well that is all for now. I should probably get back to studying to prepare before the girls come over at 6 for a study session. Hope everyone had a great weekend.
