Pietro's and Africa's Wedding, last days at school

Sorry guys for being lazy. But I had a shitload of stuff to do.
Pietro's and Africa's Wedding was on the saturday the week before the last one. They had an awesome church and the reception was at the German Society of Philadelphia. the only thing which really sucked was that it was around 38 degrees and 85% humidity. And we had to walk around in suits. Imagine how this feels!!!!
The week after that I went back to Allentown to see my host family again, because I dont know if Im gonna be able to see em before I leave...
On Thursday Aleks, John, Jose and me went to Imaads place. From there we saw the filming of Transformers 2. We just hung out on the roof and watch them. After that Christian, Aleks and me went to Pietros place to finish all the liquor and beer from the resception. We ended up hella drunk and just walked through West-Philly. The night ended with Aleks and Christian runnin around in our dorm totally naked... On the next day I had to catch my flight to LA.
Vern picked me up at the airport and we went straight to the TWS Awards and the Premiere of the new video. Yesterday we went skating to a spot in downtown LA and right in the middle of the ghetto. but shit was fun. Pics are gonna follow soon!!!

Last week of school

Sorry, for been that lazy but I was pretty busy in the last couple of days. Aleks and me went out almost every night. For Pietros Bachelor Party we went to a stripclub and had a lot of fun! The pics will tell!
During the day I had to study for my finals that i had yesterday. And you know what Im finished with American College now. I handed my last hometaking final in today. So I got one week off before Im leaving to Cali. Which is amazing! The only thing which really annoys me is that I got a fucking stye in my left eye. It's bothering me as hell! but anyway there's nothing one can do against it. Aside from waiting...

2nd trip to NYC

Last weekend I went to NYC for the 2nd time. I' got to say, that I just love this city! It's so much fun and there's so much stuff to see! I had a great time there.
I went there on Thursday and met up with Paula. We went to her place and waited for Daniel, my friend from back home. He came by plane from Germany. But we didn't stay at Paula's place. We stayed at an appartment of some relatives of my host family. The best thing was that we had our on place. Cuz they had to leave for the whole weekend. But they were so cool to leave us the keys!!!
Daniel and I, we did the whole sightseeing stuff within one day!!! Pretty good job, I guess. The rest of the time there we spent with shopping and walking around this incredible city.

On Monday I had to catch the bus back to Philly. I arrived at 5:20 and had to meet with Corey, alex and Heidi at 5:30 to go to the Phillies game. It was fun! But i've got to say that I like basketball better. Baseball isnt that exciting to me...

Here are some of my impressions:

8th week

This week nothing that special happend. Business as usual. Had classes from Monday to Thursday. On Thursday we went to MadMex once again. After that we went to Jette's house and spent the rest of the nigth on the roof and in her room while listening to really old music. For instance Tom Petty!
On Saturday i went to Allentown to chill. Cuz I was kind of sick of the food at the dining hall.
Im dying to go to NYC again! Only three days left!!!
But I got a fucking midterm tomorrow and a bunch of homework due Wednesday and next week! Im sick of that!

NYC

Is probably one of the best places I've ever been to, if not the best!
I caught the bus up there on Thursday to visit my friend Paula. She is living in Brooklyn since six weeks. So she is already kind of used to the size of the city and knows where to go and not to go.
This city is unbelievable! I seriously love it! It such a good place to be! But you have to be there to understand it, I guess.
Okay, let the pictures talk:

Midterms...

Sorry guys, that I didn't post for almost a week. But These two weeks are the midterm weeks. Which means, I got three examns to write. It really sucks! I mean, two of them are open book test. So, we are allowed to take our notes, homework, even our textbooks with us. But therefore the questions are really hard! I think i sucked in Supply Chain Management. But anway, let's change the topic!
Aleks girlfriend Hannah and her friend Zoe came to visit Aleks in Philly. So obviously we had to take em out!
First went to a pizza place in university city. The food was alright. The funniest thing is, that the bottle of wine we drank was more expensive then the food!!! After that we went to Mad Mex.
On Friday we went there. Sadly I haven't got any picture of the night. On Saturday we went there again to celebrate Alex's birthday.(Same thing with the pictures) But I can say, that we had a lot of fun there!
On Saturday I went to center city again to explore it by foot. I've been to Chinatown, which is a totaly different world though. Like, you're passing a street and then you're surrounded by Chinese. All over the place. No other ethnic group is there. That's maybe the reason for the name. Hahahaha!
Okay, Im out for today. Gotta solve a Problem for Supply Chain Management.
I'm going to NYC on Thursday, just to let you know! I heavily excited!!!
