Happy Mother's Day!

I just wanted to hop on here really quickly and wish everyone a happy mother's day. I'm really bummed out that I can't see everyone today, but I'll be home soon and then I can make my visits. This weekend has not been as action packed as the past few weeks have been. Aside from going to Munich it has been pretty calm here, although I have been having a funky time trying to fall asleep the last couple of nights. Last night I did hang out with a former OU student who is here for the 40th anniversary party on Tuesday and Learose. She is extremely nice and fun to be around. Today she, Learose, and I went around the city for a little while. First, we tried to go to the old bakery, but they are closed on Sunday. Then we went to a hotel which has a cafe on the roof for lunch. Unfortunately, they were not serving normal food today since it was mother's day. The only thing that they had was a 23 Euro breakfast buffet which we politely chose to pass on. Finally, we ended up going to a pizza place that is built into the side of one of the mountains in the Altstadt, and after we ate lunch we decided to get some delicious ice cream on the way back to the bus stop. Other than that, nothing else exciting happened. More former students will be arriving in town soon. The party on Tuesday seems like it is going to be a blast, and we even have an administrator from OU who is coming to visit for the night.

Unfortunately, I have a ton of work that I should be doing, but I really haven't felt like doing much this weekend. Luckily, tomorrow is a holiday in Austria so we do not have class. Instead, we are going to a museum which has buildings that represent the different time periods in Austria. If you have seen South Park recently it is going to be like the episode where they go to the pioneer village, only this will actually be interesting. If I do a little bit of work tonight I should be fine because we will also have a ton of time to get work done tomorrow.

I almost forgot to say that next weekend we are going to Vienna. In fact, this weekend is only a two day school week, but I still am going to have a ton of stuff that is due coming up in the near future. The trip should be fun, since it is a 4 day trip. Then, next weekend we have a 4 day weekend to travel on our own. I still don't know where I will be going to, but I have to make up my mind very soon so that I can make plans and such.

That's all I have for now. I miss and love all of you terribly. I don't want this trip to end, but at the same time I am really looking forward to being at home again so that I can see all of you again. I'm sure that I'll be able to write again in the near future.
