I've had a great time today but I am very exhausted now. It was just too hot and we got tired very quickly. Hollywood is just a big show. EVERYTHING there!! We didn't meet any stars, though.  It was not exactly how I expected it. I thought it would be very clean everywhere and just more "Hollywood-like". At places like the "Chinese Theater" that's totally the case, but if you follow the "Walk of Fame" a little more down, you will see dirty corners and a lot of strange stores, like sex/tattoo/punk etc shops.  And you will find so many different people!! Of course different nations but also with totally different styles!! I took a lot of pictures while walking on the "Walk of Fame", I don't know if you want to see all those stars on the ground, lol ;D What I mostly liked was the place before the "Chinese Theater"!!! That's were all the movie stars put their signatures, feet and hands. I've seen a lot I know and took many pictures but then I found one person I didn't expect at all there!!! SONJA HENIE!!!  My hands are very small and fit exactly in hers.  And you won't believe how small her feet were. Like from a child. They don't look that small on the pictures but they were!! I took a photo of the feet and hands of Johnny Depp  and many more.... Does anyone know where I can open a photo album with unlimited space?? I tried "Epson"... limited. Then I tried "web.de" and that's also full now. Grrrrrrr  Hopefully someone can help me, I want to show you the pics!! Nina |

Wow, thanks for the list, Helga!! Pity that I haven't seen it earlier because now I have chosen Yahoo, but that works, too. Thanks anyway!  I've uploaded everything. The albums you already know (House, La Purisima Mission, Santa Barbara) and the new one: Hollywood. The last ones are Danuta's again, starting at "The Wax Museum". Enjoy! de.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/ninas.fotos/my_photosOh and maybe we're going to St. Monica beach today. The surfer-guys, you know.  But we have to wait for Ana because she is our driver and has to decide. Nina |

Oh, I'm kind of nervous!! Today is my first day of university Danuta and I are both a little afraid. We don't know what to expect. Everything is so new and different.  Hm, we'll see.... Luckily we'll have our one and only class today at 3:30 pm!! It is called "Strategic Human Resource Management". I'll tell you later how it was |

Yesterday I was too frustrated to write , but today things are better. You know, that woman from our German organisation wrote to us two months ago. She said that it is always very difficult to get into business classes, especially since we are no regular students and can’t register through the internet. So she then asked us which classes we want to take. We told her and a week later she told us we were definitely in…. So we went to our first class yesterday, and well….we were NOT on the list!!! We went to a secretary afterwards; she typed our student-ID's into her computer and told us that we weren’t registered for one class!!!!! We went really crazy because almost all business classes are already FULL!!! So this morning we went to another class where we were supposed to be in, but the same problem again.  Now we were totally frustrated. Then we had a break of two hours and decided to walk home again. When Danuta turned her computer on she had received an email from the IEP-Office (Intensive English Program). They said that a secretary ( ) had explained our problem to them and that they now have permission numbers for us. You need those permission numbers to be registered for the classes. Of course we picked them up immediately, and it seems that we are really in now!!!!!!!!  We’ll have to check that tomorrow, but I am much more relieved now than yesterday evening!!! Nina |

Today I've had my first presentation in Spanish. I HATE presentations, because I always feel very bad before. My stomach hurts and I am shaking.  Today happened the same  but I got through it and now it's weekend!!  A few days ago we had a disaster here!! Ava, the dog of my deaf roommate Sheila had disappeared. We searched for her everywhere and finally put flyers all over the street. Luckily a man, who had found Ava, saw the flyer and so we had her back after 2 days. Sheila was sooooo relieved, I think those 2 days were the worst of her life!!  Oh and there happened a wonderful thing today. Ashley (one of my roommates) came home with an 8-weeks old kitten!!!  She is sooooo cute that I have to cuddle her ALL the time. Awwwwwwwwww I'll promise to take a photo of her. Tomorrow (or today for you ) we will go to an icerink!! A few weeks ago I found out where the next rink is and apparently they offer lessons for adult beginners... We (Lauren and me) will ask them everything tomorrow and if it's possible we'll already sign up!! That would be great!!!!  |
