I truly think time has never gone faster in my life, which was surprising because I\u2019ve been in college for a while. I\u2019ve experienced the semester as a length of time. My theory is that the concept of 5 months abroad sounds a lot more intimidating and life changing and all-encompassing than it actually is, but simultaneously (because it feels like re-starting college) I think I somehow expected it to last 4 years. But it won\u2019t and soon I suspect it\u2019ll feel like a strange dream.<\/p>\n

Again, this isn\u2019t to say I haven\u2019t changed or had amazing experiences and learned about myself and accomplished what I come here to do. It\u2019s just unbelievable that I\u2019ll be leaving in exactly a week and I don\u2019t know when I\u2019ll be able to come back.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve been thinking about what I\u2019ll miss as well: Laugenbr\u00f6tchen, my room and its windows and beautiful light and hardwood floors, my friends & meeting new people so often.<\/p>\n

Recently, I went to Hohenzollern and then up north to the G\u00f6ttingen\/Hannover area. Seeing Hohenzollern from afar over the hills and on the train and then finally being able to walk up to it, slowly curving around its passages, was my favorite part. For those counting at home, this brings my castle count to 5 (T\u00fcbingen, Heidelberg, Prague, Sigmaringen and Hohenzollern)!<\/p>\n
