Its been a great couple days in Waidhofen but I am excited (and scared) to go to Vienna on Thursday. Yesterday Susi and I went to Linz to a large shopping center. We shopped around for a while and I found a cute skirt at H & M for €4,95 (incidently after skyping with my friend Annie, I found out that we bought the same one!) Around noon, Christoff, Susi's boyfriend, met us there and we went to Mongolien BBQ place (kind of like the Jungs we have in Eugene). He was very nice and goes to the same university in Leoben as Susi.
Last night I hung out with Susi, her cousins, and her friend at a little bar/cafe type place. They taught me some German words and tried to teach me slang but some of the pronunciation was guttural that I could not say it. We stayed up late, which was great for fixing my sleep schedule because I was able to sleep in until 9am today, after a couple days of 4am-6am mornings.
Susi and I were going to go hiking with her cousins but the weather isn't that great right now so I think its going to be a lazy day. Later tonight, Susi and I are going to her grandmother's farm (father's mother) to milk some 200 sheep! I've never milked a sheep so it should be a fun experience:)
I finally found the email with your blog address and feel caught up with you. I keep checking skype (somewhat obsessively) to see if I can chat. I also checked facebook which was empty, so I went sleuthing for this blog address. I hope your first day in Vienna went well and can't wait to hear/read all about it.
