I felt the need to have some good Christmas music playing so I thought I would share that Christmas spirit with everyone!
I AM GOING CRAZY!
Mark Twain said My philological studies have satisfied me that a gifted person ought to learn English (barring spelling and pronouncing) in thirty hours, French in thirty days, and German in thirty years.
I miss my dog. My dog is way cooler than any German dog.
Alright in other news.
I am spending money I don't have to go to London this weekend. I am going to see Cat and K10. I am taking Anna, however, I don't think she is going to be happy with me. All she wants to do is shop and I cannot spare a single dollar! I might just be like, well there are the stores I will see you in a few hours.
So, my loans are all messed up. I am not really sure what to do with them. I just know I was denied my deferment so I had to go into forebarence which means I have to pay a huge fee every three months and every six months that huge fee is pretty much tripled.

About your loans...isn't your position in Germany technically school related or can be considered an internship? Loans are lames.
Being broke is lame, but it's just money and money doesn't make you happy. However sadly money does help day off loans and helps me pay my heating bills and buy food. Other than that it's not so important. :)
I'm kind of bummed that Germany hates the United States. I wonder how many other countries hate the U.S. Probably alot....actually, I just don't want to know. I want to believe that the whole world loves each other.
Ok I hope you have a fantastic time in London. Take lots of pictures and I'll see you super soon!!!!! :D
Hello my Sherwood,
So in my creepy stalkerish way while I wait anxiously to see you I saw your blog fia facebook and clicked to begin skimming your entries. So here are my random ramblings for you to read from what I have read. First of all I absolutely love the Christmas music, and I too was glad when the time of year came to listen in to all of those St. Nick tunes. I cannot wait to hit the Christmas markets with you and oo I did color you a lovely picture.
It sucks to hear about your loan problem, I am really confused as to how they could deny you, I thought fullbright was supposed to make that happen, otherwise how can people afford it? For the record I to have no money, literally Kristen has been giving me "allowance" as we call it, what little I had left I cannot access until I return to the states so I have been in a bit of a limbo to. Its interesting though when I think about my financial situation because despite my financial crisis I truly am coming around to believe that money should not dictate what I can or cant do, or what I have to miss out on. My, that is a conundrum huh?
I am sorry to hear it is difficult for you and I am at the same time not at all surprised to see your strength in finishing the program. You are an incredible person and even if the situation is not perfect it will become a part of your story. It is interesting because my sister went through the same thing when living there, and it too took her months before she could get out of the 'this is not my home' state. I just wish the program was more, I dont know, helpful to you in the adapting process and you just shouldnt have to be so stuck. I can relate somewhat to your feelings, for me though I am still quite mixed about my experience. Quite honestly at this point I am happy I really didnt meet anyone and get close because it will ease me into leaving, at the same time I just want to travel and there are certain things here..many things even...that I love and will miss. I havent truly sorted through my feelings I guess, but I thought I would share that none the less.
Well, I guess that is all i can remember that i wanted to say at this time. I miss you very much and just hope I can figure out where you are.
