CURRENT MISSION

Uh-oh, it's magic, you know!

ABOUT ME

Yes, I'm from the actual city. Yes, I love the film. Yes, we really do talk like that. (Anybody who says otherewise is in denial). I've lived in three places in the past four years: Vegas (hated it), Minnesota (je t'aime!), and Germany (a blast). I'm graduating with a Bachelor's in English Literature and German this spring. Currently studying abroad in Jena, Germany. Beautiful student city. I love to travel and meet new people.

PHILOSOPHY

No second-guessing!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I shook hands with the guy who made "Supersize Me." He was super nice.

Teach, Learn, Share

Try not to make generalizations about cultures right away. I have found that all of mine about the German culture can be undermined. Also, the people are not the same as politics.
