I’m starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel for this half of the semester. This week, most of the group projects were finally due, presentations were given, and the last remaining assignments planned for. While it was a decently busy week for me, it’s not really going to make for an interesting…

Drones, Meetings & Shopping
Ok… last up on my catch up list, week four. The weeks have been progressively getting more and more interesting which is good for those of you reading but basically just means extra stress for me. Oh well, let’s jump into things. Group Speaker Meeting I guess the most important event from week four of…
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…
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…
(Re)Visiting Darmstadt
This week turned out to be a bit lazy but I still have some fun stuff to share with you all. Darmstadt On Monday I went to visit my friend from Darmstadt. It was so good to see her after having not seen her for over a year. We went for coffee, ran a few errands, and…
Homecoming Party in Germany, Global Finance Lecture & Student Parliament
Back on track! Boo-ya! Globalization through Finance Lecture The first event from this last week was an absolutely amazing lecture by Dr. Frannie Leautier, Senior Vice President of the African Development Bank. It was honestly a bit sad to see how small the turnout to the event was. I think a lot of my fellow classmates…
Halloween in Germany? Yes it’s a thing!
I don’t know how the heck I’m still behind on blog posts! I thought that I had caught up until I realized that Halloween was two weeks ago instead of one. Oh well, here’s what happened regardless. Halloween I know that Halloween is an American holiday and I had been told numerous times not to…
