It's getting to be that time!

No, by popular belief, I have NOT forgotten about this blog...it's just so dang hard to keep up with, with the amount of homework we get! Maybe after midterms? Anyways..I'm cutting into precious homework time here.
The Christmas lights are going up here in town. I can't wait till they light them all up! Oh, and in less than the month the parades start. What do I mean by parades? Krampus parades. And for those of you that have never heard of these, they are scary: (this link isn't of the actual parade, but you can see what they look like) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eBt0pVkcVt4
Why are they scary? Notice the whips-they DO whip you. And I've seen really nasty bruises they can leave. I was told to stay in and watch from my window. (Who knows, maybe I'll get adventurous). It's all supposed to be in fun and game. Either way, can't wait to see it!
Christmas markets begin here in 4 days!!! Gluhwein....ahhh can't wait!
Midterms are next week....booo. Will definitely need the Gluhwein to keep me sedated. lol
Oh and even more awesome, all my visitors will be here soon! Libby in 35ish days, Aaron in 40ish days, and April and her friend in 45ish days. =]

And on another note, I found a grocery store that charges a third of the price for the groceries I would get next door. Its a little farther away, but so much worth it. And they have a larger selection of foods. Oh, and its next to a DRIVE-THRU MCDONALDS. I've never seen a drive-thru anything in Europe. And they have free refills. Very exciting! There is also a place to go tanning across the street which I need to check out, and a few stores nearby that looked cool...if only I can find the time.

I can't wait to get some Christmas shopping done. It's going to be an expensive year-I can tell already lol

I'll try to update you all more soon. Stay tuned.
