And I am going to push my glasses up a little higher

Today was a great day! The sun was out almost the whole day, and I was busy the whole day. The reason I am a huge nerd right now (and all the time) is because I just got back from watching Star Wars (in German) and the book I am currently reading is Harry Potter.

The day started out at 7.45 when Carsta (my mentor teacher) picked me up. This week is project week, so we visited her students at different companies throughout the city. We were originally going to do that today and tomorrow, but we were able to get it all done in one day. It was really nice meeting the students one at a time. The funniest thing that happened to me today was that one of her students is doing his internship at the Max Planck Institute for physics. Fun, the only friend I have here in Greifswald works there, but it is a pretty large building. She said he was working in plasma physics, and that sounded strangely familiar. We met with the student and then the professor as he was walking in. He invited us up to the offices. When we were walking down the hallway, I saw Steffi making herself a cup of tea! We were both so confused and then started laughing. She invited me to see her office, and I met someone else that she worked with. What are the odds?

So Carsta and I drove around all day, she ran into about six or seven people that she knows, maybe more. When were done, we sat in the city center and had some ice cream, well, she did, I had Sekt (sparkling wine) with strawberry cream in it. Lovely! After the day, I came back here, napped and watched scrubs until about 7.30, when I headed back out to the catholic student center (St. Joseph's). Daniel, one of the guys I met last week, asked why I bolted from church on Sunday, and I said because I am dumb. Again, we had dinner and chatted some. Then talked about the upcoming semester, I attempted to make a few jokes, they fell flat (like my jokes normally do) BUT I was able to be awkward and funny, so in the end, everyone laughed! And then we watched Star Wars. And now I am going to read some Harry Potter before bed.
