Next week is our last week of class from 9-5. That makes all of us very excited, but that means the time to take the big test has come. The test is pass-fail, but apparently is really hard. And we get to take this test at 9 am, when we get back from Berlin about 1 am that morning. I guess I can stop complaining though, because we are going to Berlin for 5 days.

This week was fairly easy week. It got really nice finally. Between our two classes we have about an hour and 15 minutes, and most of that time this week was spent playing disc in the old botanical gardens.

Wednesday was a really nice day for our early class. We got to spend a little over an hour in the city. We had to find a few people and interview them about sport clubs, if they were in them and such. We found a good amount of people fairly early and met up with a few other people from our class, and with that extra time found ice cream.

Friday was supposed to be another tour of the town focusing on famous people that have called Marburg home, like the Brothers Grimm. We got there and decided to cancel the tour because it looked like it was going to rain. About two minutes into the walk home or less it started pouring rain and hailing. I was with a few people going to Edeka, a grocery store, and we just started running as fast as we could. It only rained for about 5 minutes... about the same amount of time we spent outside.

---> This is one of the entrances to our old botanical gardens. The stairs here are very different. On the right you can see two little ramps. They are perfectly spaced out for strollers. It also seems to be easy for people on bikes to get up the stairs and such. Another innovation that I like over here are the windows. Almost every window is the same. They are normally closed, but there are handles on them. If you turn the handle to the side the windows pull in like a door, but if you turn the handle upside down just the top of the window pulls in a few inches and lets air in.

As the month of March draws to an end I get happier and happier, because then I can shave this mustache. In German mustache is called Schnurbart, and to celebrate the brave few that took pride in mustache March were are having a schnurbarty. Its great because many of us don't have our morning class the next day too. I am really sick of looking like a complete creeper. Don't worry, there will be some pictures to see just how bad it looks.

And its finally daylight savings time, two weeks later.
