thor & willy wonka

so it has been four dazs in Berlin. It does get better and better each daz though. I still think that it is too new for all the historz though. I've seen almost all of the sights: Bradenburg Tor, Reishang Parliment, Jewish Musuem, German historz museum, Checkpoint Charlie, Jewish Memorial, Contemporarz art musuem i cant remember the name of, east side gallerz, tv tower, berliner dom, whilhem-kaiser church... The comeporarz art museum was one of the best Ive been to. i went with an argentian girl, who enjozed it heaps, so i think i had to go slower than i normallz would, so i liked it a lot. the east berlin gallerz is the remaining portion of the berlin wall with famous graffiti bits of political outcrz. it was amazing to think that this huge wall surounded the entire citz at one time. it was also a little disappointing since people had tagged and wrote all over it. i know that it is a wall of grafiti, but its historz. and honestlz, i dont care about peoples 2002 european trips. what is a lot disappointing about berlin especiallz in visiting whilhelm-kaiser church and checkpoint charlie is that because berlin had to rebuild, around these verz historical sights, it is heavilz commericalized. its a little disppointing. here is history: now buy something. the wilhelm-kaiser church was prettz amazing though since it was so heavilz bombed in the war. inside, there are these beautiful mosaics in gold. I think that I am rather historied out. It's reallz good though to see the perspective in things that isnt the US perspective.



Last night, I found a photobooth! We were on the waz to a club and i spied it. i asked the guzs that i knew if thez would join, but none were game. but the aussie i hadnt met was. his name was patrick and is from sydney, austrailia. that is all i know about him. but the strip is really good. veronica, persuaded the guzs to join in the booth with us later. so we have a real squeezed one. the club was sopossed to be "amazing". it was real far away, and we got lost a bit. it was in an old water plant that may also be moonlighting as a jail. it definately had potential. too bad they only played house and techno music. where is dj-nerdery when you need it? verionica saw a kiwi she knew who was with a guy from iceland. icelander? icelandic? his name was thor. the kiwi loved it, he thought it was the most masculine name ever. the name reminded me of a cartoon from the 80s. at the time, thundercats, but that is wrong. thor told me i could call him thundercats if i wanted to though. the kiwi informed me that berlin is the best place for house and techno music. it's just so hard to dance to! there was this one girl who was eating it up though. she kept dancing and dancing and dancing.

And today I did laundry. a german man who looked like willy wonka basically set up the machines for me. he told me that "germans are helpful people". but he confused me on the the spinning thing and the dryer. i didnt understand the spinny thing explanation where he asked me if i understood english. so he kinda was like willy wonka with that split personality thing going on. maybe theres also a back room that he can put his hat on half a manican (because he wore one like willy wonka)
