So, I’m back in lovely central Illinois, with yet another reason to wonder why I came home: humidity. Illinois is freaking hot after summer in Europe. I see why air conditioning is much more prevalent here… Anyway, my excuses for this post:
- Between lack of sleep and too much stress, my brain hasn’t been functioning properly.
- Because of end-of-the-semester stress and leaving Germany, I’ve needed something to laugh about.
- I’m too easily amused.
- My brain needs a good scrubbing.
Some of these have explanations; some don’t need them; some are bad enough and the less said about them, the better.
From Berlin:
Sculptures in Paris:
After several days in Paris, with all these sculptures so conveniently covered by rags blowing so conveniently in the wind, I had to wonder: did they use glue when the models were posing? Seriously, either carve the figures in detail, or just put shorts on them, jeeze. It gets a little silly.
German/European Advertising:
German advertisements fascinate me, they seem rather different from American advertising. After four months in Germany, I would finally agree that Americans are really unnecessarily prudish about their sexuality. Though as an American I still find it a bit odd haha.
Wow!
