Surprises

Surprises. MMM. I am not sure what kind of surprises I had if I had any. I pretty much new what was going to happen. I was surprised at the beginning when two out of the three of us got in the same class. I was expecting all three of us to be in three different classes. I am kind of surprised that I have consistently went to bed so late, which I wasn´t planning on doing at all. I am not much more able to deal with novelty than I was when I was back home in Cincinnati, but I think I may have been more relaxed with it, just a bit at least. I have learned about myself that I think about doing stuff without doing them and that I give myself excuses in order to not do something. On the trip, I have seen that, but with the help of a few people, I have been able to meet a few new people on the trip and kind of push my envelope of being able to do stuff, like surveying people.

  1. Every time I come here, there are slightly different activities that show new aspects of German culture, or provide a deeper understanding of them. Push your thinking and analysis a bit more. What sort of differences have your noticed in German culture this time that you did not realize the first time you were here.
