We are the champions, my friends.
We may have lost the battle of the chocolate yogurt, but we have surely won the battles of cherry jam and apple pie. Last night, we were able to devour a good amount of apple pie, which only shows are dedication to all things sweet and tasty. The sweet war will continue, and I will assure you that only the strong will survive!

I had my first international law class last week and I kid you not, the only thing I genuinely understood was the sentance 'So, does everyone understand?' Huh. Well, the only thing I can say at this point is that I can only improve. Things cannot possibly get worse. I am bound to learn some new vocabulary. And, the french girl who sits next to me is also just as confused and lost as I am in this german language. Our professor seriously talks as fast (if not faster...I would put money down on faster...) as that guy who did the Micro Machines commercials when we were younger. (I do believe he also starred in an episode of Saved By The Bell!)

Tomorrow night, I shall be going out to dinner and a movie with my host parents. I think we can all equally hope that sometime later in the year the words 'host parents' will be replaced by 'really hot boyfriend' or something like that. But, as it stands, anything in german with german people improves my german. So, I can't complain (despite it sounding rediculously pathetic).
