It seems to me that this blog has taken on a somewhat negative cast, which is not entirely fitting with the rather good days I've been having lately. I think a second post is needed to clarify that no, I am not having an awful time.
Yes, I have been sick, but we'll gloss over that hahaha.
So on Saturday we went to Cologne. Amazing, amazing, amazing. This city was founded in 30 BCE. That is so long ago it's ridiculous. We saw the incredible cathedral and the really old city gates...ah man, I can't even explain what it's like to be looking at something that old. Hell, there's a church in Ede that apparently was built in 1300 something. Old stuff is all over the place here; that's strange for me, considering that my country has hardly any history.
Flute lessons today were better than they have been. I've decided that I'll listen to the teacher's suggestions and incorporate them into my playing when I'm around him, but I'll decide for myself what to keep. This way he's happy and my lessons are more tolerable. It really did make all the difference today.
So apparently I have no school for the rest of the week...?
One piece of bad news: my phone freaking out is due to a software problem and it cannot be fixed. So now I have to buy a new cell phone. Yeargh.

And now for pictures from Cologne, for which I know you've all been anxiously waiting.
My face sucks. The cathedral does not.

A SWEET window in the cathedral. Yes, it is supposed to look like this.
Spirals own.
A kind of bad picture inside.
One of the three remaining city gates.

This is what I saw as soon as we got off the train. Incredible.
