Partying in Stuttgart:
I spent yesterday afternoon hanging out with Mani. He plays guitar, so I was able to relieve those itching guitar fingers for a while. For those that don't know, I was fully planning on bringing my recently finished guitar here to Europe, but British Airways was going to make me check it. Not a chance!
Last night, we went to a birthday party for one of his friends in downtown Stuttgart. It was a good time to practice my German. My three years of German in high school have given me a basic understanding of the language, but left me nowhere near fluent (not to mention I hadn't practiced since then). I can carry on a basic conversation though, and people here are more than willing to help me learn. But as soon as the talk turns technical, I am lost. Lots of learning to do.
Turns out I met a guy (Tim) who lived in Marysville for a year as part of an exchange program when he was in high school. We didn't connect on any names, but its truly a small world!
Tschüs für jetzt!

Hey Jon! Looks Like a lot of fun over there. You've inspired me to make my own blog. It's at jimbles.blogspot.com. Ok, so there's not anything on there yet, but just you wait!
AOL Wireless is good. It's a very fast-based laid-back sort of environment, if that makes sense...? I guess example would be that I can come in whenever I want (and I mean whenever!), but I have to perform. There are other things too. Like Razor scooters in the hallways. They get you places faster!
Anyway, glad to see things are going well over there. I'll post some stuff up too.
