my art is good enough, I like it

One reason I dislike speaking English in public places in Germany, is because I feel like the people around me think I can't speak German, that I am just another American. Tonight I met up with a group of very cultural people. Greifswald offered a night called "Culture Night" which in theory seemed really cool, but we found there wasn't really that much to do, but it ended up being a really fun night. I was spending the evening with Steffi and her work colleagues. All people she works with from the physics institute. The reason we were speaking English with one another was because in our group we had one American (me), two Germans, one Hungarian, one Mexican, one French girl, and one girl from Chile. We decided that spending time with one another was enough of a cultural night, but we did do some of the activities. At first I was a bit nervous, because I didn't know anyone besides Steffi, but the group was really great, because of the diversity, no one knew one other person all that great, which made for a fun evening. During th evening, we went to a natural museum, made our own art, sat outside of a church and had dinner, went to a pub, made plans to do karaoke together, and I made a bet with one of them. It was a really pleasant evening and the ride home was good, I learned about chaos theory physics, which of course I didn't understand, but was still interested in learning.

And now I have to get to bed, tomorrow (err, today) I am going to Potsdam for a hat tournament, meaning you sign up, then they pick out of a hat who is going to be on what teams.
