I got a tip that another reader might start reading this blog, so I thought I better write something even though I forgot my camera.
So, they are going to have the World Cup (Weltmeisterschaft!) here in Berlin starting in a few weeks. Forget about getting into the stadium here (built by the Nazis for the ´36 Olympics, by the way) but we are in luck, because the government built a smaller replica of the Olympic Stadium right in the middle of the city, and instead of having soccer inside they are going to have lots of beer-drinking, TV screens showing the games, and the Black Eyed Peas are going to play. How cool is that? I mean, who will want to go into the actual stadium? Jess said I have to pick my top 3 teams in order to get all into World Cup soccer with her, but I think really all I have to do is drink some beer.

man, i thought you'd just be able to waltz in there and get some soccer excitement. It sucks that they don't save tickets for Americans who are supposed to be doing research for their history grad program. What the hell? There is no justice in the world!
Well, actually I dont know how hard it would be to get tickets. I just assumed it would be impossible so that I could go to the mini statement without my soccer fan friends telling me that I was a heathen for missing World Cup soccer.
