Hooray for finished projects! They'll be posted up on the Berlin 2009 website soon for the whole world to see, and hopefully they'll help sell this study abroad trip a little more to the people that are contemplating it for next Spring. I don't want to leave this place, but I'm definitely comforted by the fact that I still have a good two months in Europe. And now that I'm free from the burden of deadlines, I can snap away at my own leisure. I'm planning on dropping off my laptop with Gaby's family in Belgium, so blog posts will probably be sparse. But I'll do my best to make it to an internet cafe at least once a week and keep notes on that week's experiences. So far, my worst fear of getting yelled at in incomprehensible German by the ticket validators never materialized, so I can't really complain. Freeman was one hell of a host, so I guess only time will tell if Berlin can be topped.
