"Was ist los", you ask?

List formats are easier. Also, I seriously think my brain cells are slowly dying from constantly working on college applications.

1. I'm well into my (second) internship at the Goethe Institut.
2. And it's pretty fantastic, if I do say so myself.
3. My boss spent five years at the Goethe in Paris. And she likes me. And she wants me to stay. Helllo, job opportunities?
4. I'm soaking it in. All of it.
5. I have a million photos of trees. Changing colors, that is.
6. With my limited funds, I'm desperately trying to decide between a new pair of boots or a Holga. It's a girl thing.
7. The Isbitsky's and the Szostak/Isbitsky went on an excursion to Colmar yesterday to visit family friends.
8. It was good. Literally. I mean the food. :)
9. Highlights of yesterday: speaking French again, Champagne from Champagne, good wine, good food and good atmosphere, to generalize.
10. Saturday: IKEA with Anja, the chipped glass and the Family Card, taking pictures of our eyes, Black Beauty and Spiderman, Adam decided to make dinner, I learned how to cut against the grain!, we were all ridiculously cute and best of all -- it was home.
11. I'm probably making things too complicated in my head. Life is an adventure, so what is there to lose?
12. Continuing on that same thought process... I've started to work almost exclusively on my American U of Paris application.
13. I think this past weekend and a culmination of recent events caused a rather large light bulb to go off in my head at 11:30 last night, so the college essay is well on it's way.
14. What I'm not looking forward to is going to Stuttgart to take SAT Subject Tests.
15. I'm getting the travel bug again, I want to visit exchange student friends, I want to go to Morocco, but I'm excited for our England trip. But also, I've come to realize that it's the people that make the place.
