Reading (For Dummies)

Yeah

So I have been able to check my email for the first time since I left today.

I got a lot of "When are you going to update your journal?" emails.

Well tonight is the night. Sort of. I have a lot to sort out here...I cannot get my laptop on the internet until I move into my dormitory. Moving in is a complicated process, which requires me to have my Zallungesbescheid, my university admission paper.

Apparently, the University doesn't keep a record that they admitted me. At least they don't have the ability to look it up or whatever. So of course I left my Zallungesbescheid with my mom in the US. She managed to scan it in and email it to me, but by the time I got to an internetcafe earlier this afternoon, the Studentenwerk was closed (everything in Germany closes early Friday).

Anyway, when I'm settled down I will start writing more in earnest, and posting some rather fun photos. Until then I'll be roughing it.

Tchus,

Reid
