Dude, get off the fucking couch!

December 21st, 2009 | Category: usa: ucsb university 2010

Aight, … here we go again with a big update. Lots of funny stuff happened.

First off, the airmatress I’m laying on right now is mad comfy! I have to get one of those when I go down to california. I’ve been eating a lot of Fast Food since I’ve been here. Subways, Mc D., Wendy, BK and all those other places that we dont even know about in Germany. I feel like I need to eat a decent salad or 3 apples or something. I probably gained weight already. But the food is good. I had a huge Western Burger at Danny’s yesterday and I just gulped it down.

I dont know why but it seems like I am very destrucitve since i’ve been here. Nate and I accidentially broke the couch, … then I scratched the roof of Nates car. I’ll upload that video in a second so u guys can see.

I went into the abercrombie and hollister store in Providence Place Mall but I had to tell Nate to get me outta there quickly before I end up buying the entire shop. I pretty much broke right now. Hopefully my pay check is coming in before I go to cali. At the Game Stop store I met Shane Parker who was in my math class with Mr. Burns. He recognized me right away although it has been like 7 years since he last saw me.

Because of the strong Euro everything is soooo cheap over here. Take Subways for example. In Germany you pay about 7 euro for a meal which is about 9 dollars. Here i paid 5,90 for a BLT with a drink and chips. The clothes are mad cheap too. Take Abercrombie, Scott said: “Wow, 50 bucks for pants is mad expensive.” And i was like, in Germany this is actually considered very cheap.

I have to be very careful with the money though. Right now I haven’t spend it on anything that is not food. One night we watched the movie “Hangover” on DVD which was mad funny because Scott mixed us some drinks and he put very much alcohol in it too. So he was laughing the whole time. The movies is nice too.

One night, Scott, Brandon and Mike had a Flag Football game. It basically is like real football but you dont tackle the guys. Instead you pull the flag they got on some sort of belt. They actually won the game. They all did pretty well. Ryan was on the team too. Scott had some good catches.

The other night we were playing beer pong at Brandons house. He didnt put the heat on yet so it was freezing inside his house. I wasn’t very good at beer pong but it was my first time playing that game. Nate and Mike were on fire that night. the Domino’s Pizza was good too. They had this breakstick crust on the side. Yummy.

On Saturday night we had huge snow coming to Cranston. When Nate and I woke up we had about 1 1/2 feet of snow here. Which is about 40 cm in Germany. Fortunately Scott has an All-Wheel-Drive Truck so we could get around. Nates Mustang doesn’t do very good in the snow I guess.

Scott is a manager of 2 Dunkin Donuts stores. So one day he came in at like 10 in the morning. And he asked me if i could help him shoveling the snow off of one of his stores. So we went out and shovelled and shovelled and shovelled.

Last night we went snowboarding in Wachusett. It was mad fun. I liked the mountain. We had a very good time there. I was racing Scott down the mountain and we saw a kid falling so we went around the kid like in an action movie. Must have looked pretty awesome too! I wanna go there again!

Aight, .. thats it for now. Here are some pics. ;)

Chicken or Beef?

December 14th, 2009 | Category: usa: ucsb university 2010

The Journey Begins and from now on I am writing my entire entries in english so everybody can understand what I am talking about. I may change it to german though. Depending on the reading skills of my friends back home…

Well, Right now I am writing from Gate C16 in Frankfurt. 7 hours ago I was having couple of wodka-redbulls partying with my friends. At 4 a friend drove me home and i took a shower. Right after that I threw my luggage in the back of the touareg and my dad and I were off to Frankfurt. We picked up Philip along because he wanted to come with me to the airport.

After the check-in and a rather expensive breakfast i said goodbye to my dad and philip. At the security check I realised that Axel Schulz stood right behind me. And he wore that ugly “Fackelmann” hat too ;)

I sat in the very back of the plane. Right next to a girl who had a cold and was sneezing and coughing and snuffling the ENTIRE FLIGHT !! I had daydreams about choking her ! Kinda like those Flashbacks from Scrubs…

After 4 hours into the flight I realised that i was not drunk anymore :) I barely slept on the plane, .. but those 10 minutes I did, they gave out the food and I didn’t get it. No Chicken nor beef for Mr. Langholz. After the border protection in Boston, where we didn’t have the drug dogs this time, I went outside to see Nate and Scott. They both were waiting for quite a time and watched the football game. We visited Scotts parents on our way back from Boston too. They have a nice apartment with a pool table and big screen TV’s in like all the three rooms :) and a pool table in the living room. Everything is very nice. I sleep on the most comfortable air matress I have ever slept on! Scott and Nathan are @ work at the moment… And i finally have time for a lot of stuff that I wanted to do ever since I started my bachelor thesis! Max is free again !
