failblog.

really haven't updated this much, but in my defense i've kept a really great scrapbook! maybe i'll take some pictures and post them here..

and i just realized, i never posted about my barcelona adventure! at the time it was a fiasco, but in the end it was still an amazing trip. spain was definitely not to be when the airports were down and the train workers in the south of france decide to go on strike. really not cool. but, after a verrry long bus ride to frankfurt and a rather speedy train from frankfurt to vienna, i made it back and was able to make up my german final (alles gut!). very glad to know a decent amount of spanish, french, and german-- it was a very long, very eventful trip! even learned some finnish as well from some new friends i met during my extended stay in an awesome city.

i also made it to salzburg to see my friend lauren who's studying there for a year, and besides that i've been biking around vienna (really must start biking when i get back to the states.. i'm absolutely hooked!) and really getting to know the city. it's so hard to leave (i even sold back the bike today.. very hard to let go of my faithful steed) but i'm also really excited a summer in charleston! i plan on keeping the blog updated once in awhile with pictures and news, so check back from time to time!

finals are over and i've even packed (VERY thankful that we have a scale in the house-- my bags are stuffed!).. spent my last day in vienna (last final was yesterday) doing last minute errands and relaxing in a kaffeehaus by st stephen's... agh i'm really going to miss vienna!!


some pictures to make up for my bad blogging....
