opps!

Well either i made a mistake or the information from my teacher was wrong. There was no Übung today for my Bundesrepublik Deutschland class, nor was there one yesterday. Opps someone messed up, and i do not believe it was me. I showed up to the room the sheet said und es war leer, nieman war da. Oh well at least i got all the reading done for the Übung when it actually starts next week, so my weekend suddenly got a little lighter. Denke ich PARTY MACHEN! In other news day 3 of classes is over and was quite successful. Had my first class of Einführung für germanistic Sprachwissenschaft today at 830! It was actually pretty cool. I understood pretty much everything the professor said and the slides he put up. And the class was packed too. Lots of kids there. It was in the biggest lecture hall in the Philiosophisches Institute. And then i had my first class of Deutsch Mittlestufe. Which was cool. It was strange to go from a class where the teacher speaks at full speed with a sort of local accent, to a class where the teacher speaks quite slowly in the "Hochdeutsch" as they call it and pronounces every part of every word. Almost made me feel like i should be in the next class. I think i actually should be in the next class, but i got marked up on a bunch of grammar stuff on my Aufbau Kurs Prüfung so im stuck in Mittlestufe for now. But i think it'll be better once we enter grammar mode. I am excited. Again i am very happy to have classes started. Everything is pretty awesome over here. Just gotta get me a guitar and it'll be awesome! Oh yea i almost forgot, i got bumbed out of my french class because it was overbooked. Kinda sucks but theres not much i can do. The other sections dont work with my time schedule. OH!!!! i also got my insurance card today. See! Photobucket So i am now officially a part of the German health care system! I really do gotta say they have a pretty sweet setup here for Healthcare. Since im a student i get access to the state health plan for 63 Euro a month. So for 63 euro a month i can see any doctor i want, i can go to any hospital i want, and all i pay is that 63 euro. Its pretty awesome. The US could learn a thing or two about the German health care system. We're close in the states to something like this. we just gotta keep the Conservative nutjobs from screwing it up. Oh and as promised for my best brotherbuddy Mike here is the glorious Tankmen Infinity in German:
