I am having a really great time so far in Munich. Yesterday I saw Tina of course, when she picked me up at the airport, that was great, as we haven’t seen each other much this year (January, March, September and now), and I’ll see her again tomorrow because she’ll be coming over tomorrow night to hang out. My other plan for tomorrow is to buy a Christmas tree with my dad. I thought he would have bought it by now, because usually we are not so last-minute about the tree but he didn’t, and I wanted to come along now that I get a chance to [I don't often since I moved out] and he wanted me to come along as well, so that works out.

Today I slept in really late, I was exhausted after going to bed so late yesterday. I went through all my mail, sorted bills into folders as I do not have a lot of storage space in my room at the moment and I needed my desk to store stuff I brought. Even if I clean everything up it still always looks messy because I have so much more stuff here at the moment than usually. I ended up going to bed at like 4:30am.

This afternoon I just hung out in my PJs at home, I watched Music and Lyrics with my mom which was a good time. It is always a bit hard to convince her to watch a mainstream movie, but she really liked it. After that I called Tina and afterwards Eva, and she asked me if I wanted to come along to the Tollwood with her and her boyfriend. The Tollwood is a cultural festival combined with a Christmas market which takes place twice a year [in the summer without the Christmas market of course]. I indulged in so much good food there, I had a chicken curry with naan bread for dinner, and a crêpe for dessert as well as some Glühwein [mulled wine] and gebrannte Mandeln [roasted almonds]. And it was so so good, and I am still stuffed. It was such a good time. It was really cold even though I was dressed very warmly, but it was great. I took a bunch of photos there too, all the booths there sell so many beautiful and colorful things. You can see all of them here but here are a bunch of them.

    Die Bilder sind mehr als geil. Ich hatte dieses Jahr irgendwie gar keine Lust zum Tollwood zu gehen, obwohl ich ja praktisch schräg gegenüber arbeite und immer dran vorbei gegangen bin, aber wo ich grad die Bilder anschau bereu ichs schon :)

    GORGEOUS photographs, Viv! I talked with two people at church today who spent a day last week at the Munich Weihnachtsmarkt and I was jealous! :)
