Hallo aus Osnabrück

Soo… I’ve been super busy for the last month or so. I drove across country without a hitch (aside from getting cut off and hit by a guy somewhere in the midwest, but he took responsibility). Then, I flew to Berlin, stayed there for 5 days, and stayed 4 days in Munich for Oktoberfest. Oktoberfest was amazing. So much good beer, good people, crazy people. It was cool.

Then I took the train to Osnabrück where I am studying now.  It’s been crazy. My German is terrible though, but everybody I live with speaks English.  That’s not helping me learn though, unfortunately.  I’m also struggling to learn vocabulary.

The AI class I am taking is a bit difficult too.  It’s in Prolog.  Prolog is not very fun.  Not fun at all.  I’d take lisp or scheme any day over prolog.

Osnabrück is very similar to Rochester as far as the weather goes so far.  It’s cloudy or rainy and cold and windy.  I heard the winters don’t get as harsh though, but it will still be rainy.  I’m definitely not looking forward to the winters.  We’re really close to a lot of cool cities though like Münster and Amsterdam.  Amsterdam is a really awesome city.  All the buildings are old and kind of crooked.  And the roads are really narrow.  It’s quite charming.
