6 Days--Today

Since my last post 6 days ago a lot has transpired. I've seen, taken pictures, traveled alone, shopped, built another model, witnessed and became part of a station black out at Friedrichstrasse!

I've fallen in love with European clothes...ok maybe just back in love, I get to buy them and not just see them now. Everything here fits me, has great design, is not that expensive, and allows me to blend in.

I've made another model for that facade, this time using a foam cutter (heated wire) and it is much more precise and refined than the last.

I went to the park by the river near the flat and there are some really odd sounding/looking ducks. The "POP" at the beginning of the video is their duck call! They wouldn't do it anymore once I started video.


Time goes by, and the experiences are great. I feel at home.

Today is Sunday, therefore nothing is open, or at least very little...unlike America, they kind of take a day off. Today is also very rainy/misty and about 60*, cold. I'm wearing a new H&M sweater. I've just chilled at the flat because of how much running around the city I did yesterday, and the fact that my model is done, and things are close. I'm going to the firm at 6pm for our first meeting of the semester.

There are about 70 new pictures on my Flickr of around Berlin. Should be pages 1-4 in the BERLIN SET. Starting with the picture of a kitchen builder (blocks) titled "IKEA"

Updates later!
