I just finished my first exam--on Integration, Conflict and Security in Europe. The exam consisted of eight identification terms and an essay on the process of integration in Europe from 1945 until the modern European Union. We were given a study guide with 5 possible essay topics and I really focused on the right one! Yay! So, I feel very confident on that exam... but tomorrow morning I have my German language midterm, at 13.30h I have my exam on Contemporary Germany and at 16.00h I have my midterm exam on Berlin Architecture... I'm truly looking forward to a long night of studying. :)
In other news, I stepped in a pile of Hundscheiße after leaving German class this morning. First time since I've been here, despite the German obsession with letting their dogs crap wherever they choose. It's so strange--Germans have such an obsession with following rules and a seeming love of order but they allow (very well behaved) dogs to go wherever the owners go and to crap anywhere with no need to clean up afterwards. Also, this German love for smoking everywhere is starting to get on my nerves--I really like clean air!
Ah well, wish me luck on my exams tomorrow! And then Thursday morning, I'm flying to Köln/Cologne to begin my fall break. Brussels may have fallen through (at least my free housing) and I'm not sure if I want to pay for a hostel. Maybe I'll just take an early train from Paris and just spend the day.
