You don't know until it's gone. Live Journal Entry So, there are two very important superficial things I miss right now. 1. Caribou Coffee. I miss everything about it. I miss being able to find one on every corner across the street from a Starbucks. I miss how it doesn't taste burnt. I also love sitting on the couch with a Mocha or whatever next to the fireplace in Uptown with a book or something. That whole thing is nearly impossible to do here. At least, it's just not the same. I can live without it, but mark my words...I will be visiting a Caribou when I get back. 2. I also very much miss Queer Eye for the Straight Guy. You have no idea. I was telling a friend of mine about it, because its completely non-existant here, and I think I talked for a solid 20 minutes explaining each of the 5 Queer Guys and what they do and about the guys they have made over. So, I went to Bonn yesterday and I kind of like the town. My first impression is that it's kind of a British version of a German town. There were just so many British things about it, like the place I had lunch. It felt a little like Wagamama's...all modern and slightly uncomfortable and yet-good food. I had pumpkin gnocci, and it was good. So good. But, I'll let you know my second impression of Bonn in a few weeks after I go to my competition there. I have a random question for those who may be able to answer it: what's a good wireless internet card to get? I think I'm one of the last people to not have one for my notbook, and I could use one. Or, where is a good place to get one? I could order it online and either send it here or have my parents ship it to me if necessary. And, the cheaper it is, the better as the exchange rate is not too friendly for me right now! Email me if anyone knows much about this. The weather here isn't too fun. It's been gray for days. Not so much rain or anything, and it's not too cold...but, it is dark. And, frankly it's quite annoying. I enjoy the sun. I feel as if I can get more done when its sunny. |
