And then what happened?

A Big Ol’ Mashup
 
I went through my computer yesterday and pulled out all the little bits and pieces of video I’d been gathering throughout second semester, and whacked ‘em together with a bit of a vlog. It’s rather a mishmash, but it was so lovely to see everyone’s faces again here like this. Unfortunately I had to cut down about 45 minutes to just 15, but I think I managed to get the essence of everything…! Anyway, VLOG TIMES, enjoy!

Also on Australia Day - probably the funniest photo I’ve ever seen. From left to right: Adiba, Mika and Michal the Fearsome

If you’ve never had your disembodied face stuck on a chocolate pie in honour of your country’s (slightly dubious) national day, then I’m just not sure what you’re doing with your life.

Australia Day in Göttingen involved a very long lunch/coffee session with Andrew, Lisa and Dinant, shopping with Josh and Lisa (frantically trying to work out if the ingredients for Anzac Biscuits exist in Germany - they do, mostly!), a late-ish grill in the freezing dark, Vegemite on toast, lots of Aussie music (Midnight Oil, AC/DC, Jet, Grinspoon, Powderfinger, Silverchair, Amiel, The Cat Empire, Sia, and so on), long and rather inebriated talks on philosophy and the meaning of life, dancing, bogans, and snow falling at one in the morning. Couldn’t have asked for anything better!

Second Semester and the Kings of Kugel

Ooh-ahh lookit, a vlog! Haven’t seen one-a those ‘round these parts fer a goodly while. Let’s meet some of the Wintersemester folks, more colloquially known as the Kings of Kugels, as they travel to and from Prague by Deutsche Bahn. And gradually lose their minds and end up singing Dutch Christmas carols. Fun for everyone!
