Planning for Success (in Life and in Masters Thesis)
This week was also a bit boring although I think I have more to say than I did in Week #2. My schedule for most of this semester is super busy. I go to work from 8 to noon every day. After lunch I either study until 5 (or later) or have class until 8 pm depending…
No One Likes Group Projects but These are Alright
Oh man, you guys. I am so far behind on everything, it isn’t even funny. Let’s try to go back in time and write this post as if it was published on time. When I go to write my weekly updates, I normally remember one or two things to write about and then I go through my…
Semester 2; The Game Plan
Well, it’s back to the old grind. I absolutely cannot believe how fast my two month winter break flew by. Between traveling, holidays, paperwork, moving, and my new job, it feels like I just walked out of my last final maybe 3 weeks ago, max. Whether I like it or not, the new semester has…
The Frankfurt School visits Luxembourg
The new semester started with a bang with a three day trip to Luxembourg. Because we have a large number of new students in the second semester, the administration thought it would be a good idea to have some sort of bonding event for everyone before classes officially start. What better way to do that than…
Winter Break Comes to an End
I missed a week but for once in my life, it was intentional. The thought was to aggregate the last couple of week’s happenings into one post because I didn’t think there would be enough to talk about if I had a post per week like normal. Now that I’m sitting down looking at my list…

Christmas Market in Darmstadt I started the week taking a little break from studying for finals to visit my friend from Darmstadt. We exchanged…
Dead Week = Studying + Exams
Well this post is going to be short and maybe a bit boring. Last week was a break for students to concentrate on studying for the upcoming finals week. At Washington State University (my alma mater) students and professors alike fondly referred to this time as Dead Week. Whether that was because the campus was…
A New Flat for Christmas (oh, & a Party)
Just a quick update on the happenings of last week. Christmas Party The Frankfurt School held a party for all the different Masters programs last week which was pretty fun. There was great conversation and lots of gluhwein had by all. For those who don’t know, gluhwein is a wonderful spiced, warmed red wine drink…
