learning curve

hmmm....this blogging thing is tricky. My typos in the first post are infuriating but I cannot seem to get rid of them, I'll have to be more careful. Luckily, I have figured out how to do other things like add the George Washington video and poll. pretty sweet.

This blog is most likely going to remain pretty boring until D day- departure day- September 19th. We will be flying from Vancouver, B.C. to Amsterdam, traveling to Munich for Oktoberfest, and then heading for Berlin to find an apartment and a job. Wish us luck! We leave in exactly 67 days so if you haven't talked to us lately- give us a call. Or better yet- take us out for a beer. Prost!

blog what?

so...I've never blogged. which I know is a mortal sin for poly sci majors in the year 2000s. But everyone who I wanted to know about my life I just talked to or picked up the phone. Archaic right? Anyways, the point of the matter is that Ian and I are going to Berlin & we need a link to our friends and family back home. Therefore, a dip into the blog waters seems entirely necessary.
