But time for an actual update

So political rants aside things are starting to wind down over here. Its really scary. It feel like just the other day I was getting on that plane to Frankfurt, and now I have to come back. I honestly dont want to. I can say with complete certainity that this has been the best year of my life so far. I have made tons of great friends from all over the world, I've learned a new language better than i know my own, I've lived and thrived in a new country. Its completely amazing to me. I read on an inspirational calendar a quote that's stuck with me. I cant remember it completely but it was something along the lines of "The best advice you can give to a young person, is do what you are afraid to do" In all honesty I would say that quote sums up my year here. Getting on that first plane was one of the scariest things i'd ever done. Those 6 hours over the ocean thinking, worrying, practiceing what i was gonna say when i got there, totally scared shitless. Absolutley one of the most difficult things. But you hit the ground and you cant help but do it running. Right out of the gate you start learning new stuff, and meeting new people. It was nerve wracking voluntarily throwing myself into a completely different situation, one I had never imagined I would do even. But back to the quote, it was something i was scared to do, and i did it anyway. And now im all the better for it. I dont want to leave, but i know that the sooner i leave the sooner i can come back. Its a sad thought, but i have things left unfinished back home that i need to do and see before i can come back here. But make no mistake Germany, i'll be back. And that was not an AAaahold reference, because he's austrian actually. I'll be posting many more of my last thoughts here, because there is more than i could ever possiblely put down here. But imma give it a shot. alright time to get back to work. still love that movie.
