Alright, because these two made it apparent on my Facebook page that they wanted a new post. Here it is. I'm not going to lie, I am still surprised every time I find out people actually read this thing :) Anyway, I don't have much to report on, so I think I'll just share a funny/weirdo story that happened a few weeks ago. (Speaking of weeks.. as of tomorrow (Wednesday the 9th), I will have been here for 6 weeks. WTF. Where has the time gone?! I can't believe I've been here for that long already! Nuts! Anyway, moving right along..) Okay. So a few weeks ago when I went to Stuttgart and Esslingen to visit Naemi, the strangest thing happened along the way. So I was waiting for the train in Koblenz and just sitting on a bench minding my own business when a guy about my age or so sat down next to me. No big deal. People sit down to wait for trains. Nothing strange there. Anyhow, at one point, I'm sitting there minding my own business like I said, reading my book, w
hen out of the corner of my eye I noticed that the guy that sat down is taking pictures of himself with his phone. So I immediately start thinking to myself "wow, what a douchebag. Who takes pictures of themselves?! You're soooo cool guy. Idiot". I decided to turn my head slightly to get a quick glance at him--and I am not kidding here--I turn and this guy is sitting there like NOTHING is out of the ordinary wearing those glasses that have the like, slinky eyes on them. WTF. Umm they still make those?! I thought those things were like an urban legend or something. And you're telling me that not only are they still being manufactured somewhere in the world, but this guy actually bought a pair?! Like he woke up one morning, and was like "man, I really need to find me a pair of some slinky eye glasses." I seriously could not hold it in, it was the weirdest thing ever, so I turned to the other side and just started straight-up, out-loud laughing. Obviously the guy had to know I was laughing at him--and not in the good way. Then, again without even cracking a smile to indicate that this is clearly somesort of joke, the guy takes off the glasses, folds them nicely and then slides them into his bag. Ummmm... so you're saying that you just carry slinky eye glasses around with you at all times?! Uhhh??? Seroiusly.. Germans are so weird and I love it. I am not even kidding, it was one of the most random/awkward moments I have ever experienced. I couldn't make this shit up if I tried. This is a straight up real life. My life. I don't know how, but this is the life I lead. Well.. that's all I got for now. Although this Thursday I'm planning to go into Köln for this "Thursday Night Drink Club" that is for native English speakers living in the area--mostly Brits and Aussies so I've heard. But it's also karoke night I guess, so I mean.. they have to meet the real Megan Osgood sooner or later--might as well be sooner. Hope that brightened your day.. now get back to studying! Good Luck on finals girls and have an awesome break!!! :) xoxo
