Happy Thanksgiving

Leute, die ich liebe und vermisse:

Happy Thanksgiving.
As usual, I am extremely busy (and possibly supposed to be in class currently), but it's Thanksgiving, and I just wanted to take five minutes to tell you all how everything is going...

First, and most importantly, I miss you all, and wish I could share Thanksgiving with everyone at home. I've had classes all day, and I'm missing this last one to go to a Thanksgiving dinner with a friend in a few minutes. I would tell you all how much I'm going to miss American food right now, but I'm attending two Thanksgiving dinners tonight with the American programs here...and I'm cooking dinner on Sunday with my Mitbewohner and a few friends. We actually had to order a Turkey from a Metzgerei! As a side note, our Turkey was about 9 Euros/kilo...which means that out Turkey is going to be about 50Euros...talk about a pricey bird. It will be well worth it, though. I'll fill you in next week on how the cooking of said Turkey and fixings actually turns out!

Before I can cook dinner on Sunday, however, I'm going to be rushing back from the train station...after I return from my trip to Paris! Yes, Paris. I leave tomorrow morning and get into Paris around 11:30am. I'll be spending my time with Sharon, whose host family is nice enough to let me stay! I plan on doing the usual touristy stuff, because it's Paris...and it's just what you have to do...To say the least, I am thrilled.

It could come at a better time...with the amount of papers and presentations I have, currently, but it's worth the stress. After all, how many times will the whole of Europe be right at my fingers...?

I guess we'll see.

Happy Thanksgiving.
See you all soon enough.
