funny how time slips away

wednesday ended up being much more interesting than i anticipated.

i had planned to maybe run a few errands and then start packing and just relax. around 1230, as i was sitting down to eat my lunch (soup), the israeli diplomat from my last class called and asked if i had eaten lunch yet. technically, i hadn't. i got ready rapido and got on the S-bahn to meet her near her work. we went to a mexican restaurant and i had fajitas and a corona, which i'm pretty sure was watered down. she reminded me that apparently corona is the worst mexican beer, but it was still nice to have to reminisce.

we talked about my next steps... after i get back to the US - what am i going to do?? i have no idea. i need to start applying for things, but at the same time, there are so many things i want to do, and also i kind of don't want to do anything at all - just hang out at my parents' house and play guitar hero. i think i could be very content doing that AND it wouldn't cost very much! i'm sure my parents are really excited for that...

after we ate, we sad goodbye. i'll write later about some of the things we talked about that i can do in the future. i walked home and stopped at saturn - a large electronics store - to pick up an epilator and some credit for my phone. yes, i bought an epilator. yes, i am afraid - probably more than you. i have decided to wait until this weekend after quite a few beers in munich before using. (oh! and it was only 30 euros - apparently this is really cheap)

after returning home, i talked to some old friends online and did some research on places we can go in paris to watch the election results. i read a lot on the huffington post which was quite amusing. you could have a full time job reading everything on that blog - there is so much.

all in all, unexciting 2nd to last day in berlin, but it suited me just fine...
