In less than eight hours I will be on the plane that will take me to Madrid where I will have a layover and at 1250 I will arrive in San Sebastián. Today was way too stressful for me to be nervous about the trip. Now I am done packing - I was not able to take as much as I originally wanted, and I had to put a lot more into my backpack, because of that damn weight limit of 20kg on checked baggage. It is so easy to pack 20kg worth of clothes, shoes, and other stuff you need on a vacation. I will have to get up at 0430 which is in four hours and I still have to take a shower, so I will get about 3.5 hours of sleep. It sucks but what can you do. I will be able to sleep on the plane a little so hopefully I will be awake enough to take a walk around town tomorrow in San Sebastián. The weather forecast for the next week is great - 29°C (85°F) tomorrow and Monday, and even 32°C (90°F) on Tuesday! I am so excited about getting to stay at the ocean for a month - the bay looks gorgeous on pictures, so I am sure I will not be disappointed.

I ended up not finishing my termpaper. There is just no way I could have written 15 pages within the past few days. I did get started but I have only written the introduction (one page). So today I made copies of two of the books I had gotten at the library here, because I have to return those in two weeks (my mom will do that for me). The third one is available at the library in Heidelberg so I will get it from there.

Yesterday I was in Augsburg at Susi’s. Tina gave me a ride, and we got there around 1830. We helped prepare the buffet, and around 2000 guests started coming. We ended up being like 17, 10 more than Susi had expected, so it was crowded but fun. I had a really good time and the food was great. I didn’t know any of Susi’s friends but Tina, but I had some nice conversations with some of them anyway. I took the train back home around 2345 and my dad picked me up at the closest subway station (suburban trains don’t run that late) at 0100. The picture is of Tina and me, I think it’s really cute.

Thursday I saw Thank You for Smoking at the movies. It is a great movie, very black, but I like that kind of humor. It was really a fun movie, and at the same time not funny, but that’s how black humor is.

Well, I will end this here as it is late and I want to get a few hours of sleep before I get on the plane in 7 hours.

I will update occasionally from San Sebastián, as the school has internet, so hopefully I will be able to write and post some pictures before I get back here on the 30th.
