Germany and Switzerland

Germany

So Day one was kind of boring. I ended up in the room for he better part of the morning and afternoon because my sister was sick and my parents were out getting my dad's new car. I didn't really comfortable walking around in a foreign city by myself when i don't speak a word of the language. Just sayin'

When my parents came back we went out and grabbed a cup of coffee and chocolates! They were SOO cute and tasty!


When i got back to the hotel I received my rejection letter… I had applied to a  summer and year program to Italy through NYU but got rejected.. My situation was complicated and they had to take it 3 level of bosses up to make the final decision. I'm still a bit sore about the outcome but there is always a reason!

ANYWAYS! i ugly cried for like 3 hours and the next morning i woke up with goldfish eyes. 

" uh... hey guys"

Zurich

Thank god it was just another travel day and I could sleep/hide from the world. We drove from Stuttgart to Geneva with a lunch break in Zurich! I LOVE Zurich its such a lavish place. I had a nice little sandwich and ice cream for dessert. I'm lactose intolerant so it made the rest of the ride to Geneva not as fun but I REGRET NOTHING!!

You can kind of make out the alps in the back! SO COOL! and the weather was SO nice in Zurich.

The stop over in Zurich meant a lot to me and I wasnt quite sure of what to expect from Geneva...

TURNS OUT I LOVE IT THERE! ITS EVEN MORE EXTRAVAGANT! Everyone spoke French there but had a lot of warmth... and I didn't mind the expensive attractive men speaking French either...

So we stayed at the Four Seasons in Geneva and it was CRAZY beautiful. 

Geneva
 
 
I mean this was just the welcoming area!! And all of the flowers were real and smelt SOOO good. We were super tired after about 5 hours of driving so we ate at the hotel's restaurant. And it did not disappoint

They brought out a taster of raw tuna in a sauce and duck 

  The Tuna is the spoons and the duck is on the small bread pieces. and oh my goddd, both items melted in your mouth.

Next brought out was my main dish - Fish!
Super tender and not "fishy" Very light not too much

We also got a few more extras and courses but it was so dark the photos didn't turn out.. all the while during this meal we were keeping some verrry interesting company....

 Mobsters and Russian Prostitutes.
Sad but makes for a good story.

So then we went to bed. That night I had 3 different dreams. 

1) I was an anime character and could change my attributes by tapping pictures of other characters and I was in love with a councilman. 

2) The next I had to fight Nicki Minaj to kiss my friend L (who I haven't talked to in ages). He decided that I kissed better than the other Nicki and then suddenly he couldn't talk anymore and started bouncing off the walls and i had to chase him.

3) I had discovered that there was a man who kept showing up in history starting in the 1600's and I had traced his path up until the 1920's and i was trying to find him.

The next day was Sunday and Geneva is highly religious so a lot of places were closed and it was raining. But we went for a walk anyways and it was SO nice. We walked for about 4 hours and during that time we went to 2 coffee shops. The first one was a small little cozy place and the second was classy and modern. They were very strict about photos and I wanted to respect that. 

When we got back to the hotel a cake had arrived for my Dad! It was his birthday! That evening we went out for Chinese food. It didnt really come close to LA but it was a fun experience... 

The next day we left for Paris, but I'll admit I LOVED GENEVA! And want to go back soon :)

Sooo.....

I was walking around the open drug market in Copenhagen with my sister. and these three punks notice us. one of them come over and tries to be intimidating and scare us like walking directly at us and kind of mess with us a bit. I glared the fuck out of him but honestly i was scared.

It disgusts me that in our society guys feel like they can do this to women. Why the fuck is this okay? and none of this BOYS WILL BE BOYS shit.

He seemed like the kind of guy who was probably insecure about his masculinity compared to other guys but really? you seem like a BIIIIG man messing with two girls. you are sure macho.

Guys like this would never have the balls to do this if they were by themselves. they need their friends. But.. just. gross.

The other side of the market was beautiful

The Travel Day

So the flight was quite nice. Since this was our family trip and we hadn't made that many during the year my dad splurged and bought us first class tickets. OH MY GOD -- they spoil you up there. I'm not sure i could go back to economy. They had 3 course meals and all the attendants were so nice (British Airways yo. USE THEM)

We had a layover in Heathrow and we went and used the British Airways lounge. I suddenly crashed and got super tired and cranky but some food helped. They had AWESOME Chicken Tangine . I don't know if its because in the plane everything tastes muted but it tasted SO GOOD. Also I've discovered a fondness for tonic water. It's quite refreshing but not like ridiculously sweet.

We caught our connecting flight to Stuttgart and i slept the whole way. It was roughly an hour and a half flight. I felt bad for this stewardess though. She told a man he had to put his chair back up right and he started yelling "I DONT RESPOND WELL TO COMMANDS. I WILL NOT! STOP" and its like chill dude. She's doing her job. She's not calling you out - it's everyone.

The airport in Stuttgart was beautiful. Not really wheelchair friendly - so many stairs but quite clean and nice. I was feeling absolutely busted though. 15 hours of travel makes me feel not refreshed especially because my skin is breaking out :/ Anyways i was thoroughly amused by the Sex shop in the airport NEVER IN AMERICA! haha

Stuttgart is beautiful though. Super green and lush. I don't know what i was expecting but not this! Pleasant surprise. Im staying at the La Meridien and it's quite lovely. I cannot connect to internet though. Apparently its free but I'm having troubles with it.**EDIT** I got it to work. But i can only use one thing at a time with the net.

I went to sleep at 8 last night so i am WIDE awake at 6/7 in the morning and since i haven't eaten since lunch yesterday I'm kind of epically snacking on anything i can. And my sister is a little bit sick so she's managing to sleep more. with no internet. THIS IS MOST UNFORTUNATE. AND THE BED IS HARD LIKE A ROCK. WHICH ALSO SUCKS.

**EDIT** Breakfast was delicious and amazing. They had honey comb. HONEY FUCKING COMB. WHERE THE FUCK DO YOU GET THAT? LA MERIDIEN! people keep speaking German to me. I know I'm in Germany but i don't understand. And speaking slower doesnt help me. at all. But its kind of refreshing and fun.
