Grussgott, everyone! Ignore the fact that I probably just butchered that spelling--and have yet to figure out how to do umlauts on my computer, never mind that they're just colons that got drunk and fell over--but anyhoo...

I'm home. I'm alive. I'm in one piece. And now I'm going to go be unconscious for a while. Like, possibly staple a sign to my bedroom door that says "Do not open until July 4th!" or some such thing. I'll start responding to things tomorrow...ish.

Guten nacht, all. *falls over ded*

Lol, when I came home from California I went for 2 days and the dropped. Got 13 hours straight of sleep and could have gone for more if I hadn't had to go to school in the morning.

I went to San Diego for a week during Christmas break when I was a sophomore in high school. Got back into town at about two-thirty AM, and slept for a good twelve hours. Ah, bliss ♥

This morning? Woke up at three-thirty AM. After a minute, I went, "Ah, crap...that's ten-thirty in the morning Europe time!" Gotta get back in the right time zone =P

Re: Not sure

I have no idea if you'll read this or not, but I'm going to answer it anyway. To be perfectly honest, I don't know what I did to piss you off, either. And you're not giving me a single clue--and that's really frustrating. I've apparently done something wrong--something that apparently hurt you--and I don't know what it is, so ranting at me about how I'm a "rotten and selfish friend" and a "loser" doesn't do a whit of good.

I have never felt like I was in competition with you. Not once. Nor have I ever thought I was better than you. I don't know where the hell you would get that idea, and I frankly find it insulting that you would insinuate any such thing, especially in a public forum. It frustrates the hell out of me when people will tell everyone else in the world what their problem is with me--but not tell me. So now you've not only hurt my feelings by raging at me without telling me why, but I'm pissed off, too.

If you want the honest truth, I was fairly upset with you during your last semester at BV because I never saw you. And the few times we did make plans, you either broke them, or you appeared with your boy in tow. I have no problems with him at all--he's a good guy--but ya know, sometimes I just wanted to have some one-on-one girl time with one of my good friends.

Still, I'm sorry that you feel this way, and if you feel the need to terminate a three-year friendship without giving me any actual explanation or reasoning behind it, then that's your decision, and I will respect it as such. If this is the case, then good luck, and best wishes to you.

Welcome back! :D

Hee, you sound like me when I came home from Japan. I fell asleep at 3 PM and woke up at 5 AM. I had also gotten no sleep in the previous 49 hours (we were wise and were all "LAST NIGHT IN TOKYO PARTY!). So, yeah. Feel your pain. ♥

*laugh* Thanks!

I'm wide awake, even though I only slept about four hours. Gotta get back in the right time zone now *grumbles uncomplimentary things about eight-hour flights*

[candy--chan.livejournal.com]

*GLOMPS BACK* I missed everyone! It was weird to not have internet or email for eight days ^^;; I'm a nerd like that...BUT I LIVE!!!

It was a good trip, indeed--I shall post tales of the highlights eventually. Possibly with pictures, after I sort through them all 8D

*pokes icon* Purdy!

Willkommen zurück! :-)

Hope you had lots of fun.

[candy--chan.livejournal.com]

Danke! I had a BLAST--there will be posting on it at some point ^^

[magic-truth.livejournal.com]

You're back!! Yay! I missed you! I'm glad you enjoyed your trip; though, it sucks about the time zone difference.

Im looking forward to seeing an entry about your trip!

[candy--chan.livejournal.com]

Yay! Thank you--I missed you too *snuggles* Hopefully I will see you online sometime soon so I may glomp you properly...via AIM ^^;; Luvs!

[writergurl.livejournal.com]

welcome back!

[candy--chan.livejournal.com]

Danke!

[inquisitorial.livejournal.com]

hope you enjoyed your trip! and i know the feeling of being tired. driving up and down all those mountains in mexico will pop your ears like youre in an airplane. i can never sleep while me and my family drive over those mountains, which takes like ten hours!!

[candy--chan.livejournal.com]

We spent about eleven hours in the air on the trip--I had a pocketful of gum and hard candies to keep popping my ears on the planes ^^;;

I really need to go through my pics and my travel notes and start uploading 'em to various places...but seven hundred pics...yeah, might be a while =P Nice to hear from ya again!

[inquisitorial.livejournal.com]

seven hundred pics!! whoa...now that is some massive picture taking(granted i would take 1000)
btw...we got another request to affiliate with someone on 15_flames...its from 20_foods...what do you say?

[candy--chan.livejournal.com]

Affilition sounds good to me!

My camera is being stupid. Must...transfer...pics...

Hee hee, that's going to be me next week. *is totally abusing the internet access in Arusha* Thankfully I have Ambien and Melatonin. And I have random Swahili words to throw around! Bwano Asi Fiyowe! (I have no idea how to spell that...)

...Amen XD (wait for my stories and you'll understand).

I found when I was 10 that the worst thing about European jet lag was when you'd fall asleep. I'd collapse around 5 PM and wake up at 4 in the morning. Fortunately the rest of my family was waking up then, too, so we could hang out together.

We need to get together that week I'm home before I go to Chicago for I'm still not sure how long. Shawn's got all my internships lined up, though, so yay!

We only had internet at one of our hotels (well, free internet, I should specify), but I didn't use it. I was too busy wandering around Munich and accidentally taking a seven-hour nap from four-thirty PM until eleven-thirty PM--or should I say, 16:30 to 23:30 ^_^

My mom was right about the time zones--I'd adjust fine going one way, and then dying coming back the other way. So I'm currently trying to beat myself back onto a regular sleep pattern. Last night, I crashed at about ten, and woke up at six-thirty this morning. So I'm getting my full eight hours, but I still feel tired 'cause it's not what I'm used to ~.~;;

But I'll have some good stories to post eventually, along with pics, and I have a nice list of the best things heard in Europe. Wait until you hear about Ingrid, our tour guide. But on what other trip could a line like, "Here, hold my cuckoo clock," be perfectly in context?

Can't wait to hear from you when you get back. Hope you get online--you know how bad I am about answering my cell phone *sheepish* Half the time I forget I have the damn thing...anyway, hope you're having a blast, and looking forward to a story/souvenier swap! Preferrably over a large lunch ^^ Luvs!
