I miss Berlin. 3 weeks in California down, exactly one more to go. Looking forward to everything slowing down and having some time to THINK, seeing my amazing friends, walking down the streets of Neukölln with just my ipod as company, conversing, experiencing that feeling the city gives me that's unlike anything else... Ich kann nicht warten.

But oh, Southern California. It's good here! Life in the fast lane. Constant sunshine and happiness, although I sometimes question it's overall genuineness, around every corner. I love my family; friends are the family that you choose. I love my backyard that I'm currently sitting in and all the memories I've made here. California is comfortable. I'm seeing things here with new eyes, and I'm not opposed to the idea of moving back, just figuring out when the time is right. My favorite advice I've gotten so far is to go back to Berlin and marinate. Thanks, Paul. Besides, nothing is permanent, words to remember.

Lieber zwei wochen nachdenken als ein Leben lang Arbeiten.

It's better to think for two weeks than to work for a lifetime.
