Happy Birthday, Jenny!

 
Today is my sister’s birthday!

She’s fabulous, funny, and now fifteen. I really can’t believe how old she’s getting – it still seems like only yesterday that we were bringing my new baby sister back from the hospital and showing her around her new home.

Happy birthday, Jenny – I love you so-o-o much! Wish we were together to celebrate today, but we’ll just have to make up for it with even more celebrating when I get back from Prague. : )

Still Kickin’

It’s been super busy this past week, and a lot has happened!

First, my Kindle broke. Then my iPod semi-broke. To keep the theme going, I broke my sunglasses… and after that my Internet went out.

So! Now I’m blogging from a cafe with WiFi in one of the malls here in Prague. The malls here seem taller than the ones at home – they’re usually around 4 or 5 floors. This way, they’ll fit better with the compact European buildings.

Also, over the weekend I made it back over to Germany – to Munich! It was great to visit the country again after studying there last semester. : )

Part of the Münchner way of life is enjoying the outdoors, and Munich’s streets are dominated by outdoor cafes, traditional biergartens, and random picnic tables….

In Munich, I came across my fave German candy that I can’t seem to find anywhere outside Germany.

I bought 5 boxes on my way back to Prague – stockpiling. ; D

2. Always a fan of old pictures + new pictures, like the “Dear Photograph” project:

 
 
3. J’adore this repurposed map and this message!

4. I keep coming back to this gorgeous room design in Madrid, Spain. I would definitely live in this place. : )

 
 

5. I love Margaret Atwood – she gave some awesome lectures last year at Emory. This honest + humorous quote = fabulous. : D

 
 
happy friday + weekend : )
