gutentag from berlinden!

herro. GAH IM IN BERLIN RIGHT NOW!!!! this place is awesome. our hostel is really nice, and they have a computer for me to sit on. :D tomorrow we're going to see the berlin wall and a couple museums. we really wanted to go to auschwitz; turns out its 9 hours away from here.  (side note: I HATE THIS KEYBOARD. the y and the z switched places, and the symbols are all fucked up. so if i sound like a  reh-tard, its not my fault. BLAME THE GERMANS-theyre used to it by now). aaaanywho, jakes next to me looking up walking tours and shit. burn off all the food WE'RE NOT EATING. we bought peanut butter and jelly (at least what looks like jelly and might be peanut better) a loaf of bread, some of what we assumed was ham, some oranges, and some cheese. theres no fridge in our hostel, which is weird, so we had to eat the perishable food tonight. that should last us 3 days. ha! lets hope so!
today we just kind of wandered around the city, we saw a church and this monestary that has a name but i cant remember/even attempt to pronounce it. we went into a bunch of shops, and i ended up buying my germany scarf, which is a GORGEOUS dark purple and black. it was €3. i also bought a 60 cent german sausage and a latte. i thought it would be fun to order a latte in german, or at least attempt it, but the lady spoke english and ruined my fun. we got lost earlier today on the bus, on thee sweetest older lady tried to talk to us. we could pretty much figure out what she was saying to us; we understood about half. lol. she helped us out and let us follow her to show us which bus to get on. turns out she pointed us in totally the wrong direction, but we figured it out. I love love LOVE getting lost here. i really dont mind it. its kinda fun when you have the whole day to wander around without a time schedule.OH YA homework i said id be doing-. PSH. we leave here on sunday to go to paris. we're a little nervous for paris. apparently people arent nice. jake's international roommate will be back home in paris when we're there, so we're definitely gonna hit him up so he can show us the real paris without us getting killed in the process. angela knows a little bit of french, so we can at least minimally communicate with the world. I CANT WAIT TO SEE THE LOURVE! (spelling?) its gonna be amazing. barcelona is apparently warm. ITS F-ING COLD HERE. we got off the train and ang said "its like wisconsin" HA! shes so not lying tho. its that cold. kind of like wisco in like november, before its so cold you avoid the outdoors at all costs. it gets SO COLD at night. everything has the funniest names too. the coffee shop we went to was called "Balzac" and this restaurant in the mall was called "Crobag" im having a hard time NOT making fun of it. figure the locals wont appreciate it much. 
im going to bed suuuper early tonight as our flight left at 7 this morning so we were up at 430 to be ready. our flight was only like 2 hours, but i slept most of the time. i have this thing were i sleep on moving vehicles of any kind. it got the point where i put my tray down and put my face on it. goodbye all! i'll def put pics up on fb and ill def blog about paris and barcelona!
