It has been a long while since my last blog. Ahh the stresses of college…but finals week is over and the lovely weather has brought my memories of German Winter flooding back I have been lucky enough to have traveled to Germany most often during some international holiday or season (winter, new years, easter, summer…).

As senior year is in full swing I have started to reflect on all the choices I have made that have helped/hindered where I am today. Usually my blogs are very German-based but I believe this one is a bit more insightful pertaining to choosing a career path and making sure that even though life [...]

This blog is dedicated to all the students who have a Humanities STEM majors and must find time to pursue their non-STEM interest in college. *STEM=science, technology, engineering, and math. As a senior in chemical engineer my work load is jam packed… add that I am the president of an organization and all my free [...]

Hali Hallo Last weekend  I had the great chance to visit Prague! Using the RISE facebook group a bunch of RISE students met up with me in Dresden and then took the HOT 2hr train ride to Prague! Going through a day-by-day essay doesnt suite my fancy so I will make this post a bit [...]

The weekend of June 18-20th was the great non-stop party in Dresden’s young hip part of the city called Neustadt. Known to all as BRN…Der Bunten Republik Neustadt: Take all the young, old, alternative and give them a small part of the city for 3 days…you get BRN! I was lucky enough to experience BRN [...]

This is my first artikel on the blog and the hardest. I have been in Germany for about a month now…so of course I have lots to say. I have decided to dedicate this blog to random things I’ve learned. Arrival in Dresden: Register with the “Auslander” institution in your city. They often give you [...]
