Winterwunderland

It snowed on Friday evening. 3 inches of beautiful white powder.

I am now living in Wieselburg, which is a town about 17 Km away from Scheibbs. I have no mailing address at the moment.

There is a little tiny cat here name Calimaro. He is quite adorable and likes to sleep and play with me. He is twelve weeks old and hilarious. Apparently he likes cooked broccoli and raddishes. He ate a whole piece of broccoli that had been cooked in butter, garlic, black pepper, and salt. I gave it to him mainly to see his reaction, but he ended up eating the entire thing, and growled at me when I tried to take it away from him. On a whim I fed him a raddish yesterday, which he also consumed. Animals are funny and hilarious. I can't wait until I can have my own.

Cali is sitting on the edge of my bed right now, cleaning himself.

I am procrastinating doing my lesson planning for tomorrow and Tuesday. I have to prepare lessons on Racism in America (specifically pertaining to Barrack Obama), and a lesson on the ENTIRE history of America... they are INSANE if they think I can even come CLOSE to teaching the history of the U.S. in 45 minutes.

Ben and I are going for a walk later today in the snow. It has turned into a beautiful day, albeit cold.

Here are my plans for next year, if I can get accepted.
