Pi

Last night, Renee and I went out to dinner and a movie. We had really fantastic Vietnamese food at a place called Monsieur Vuong. Next, we went to see Pi at .HBC (Where Randi, Melissa, and I went to that weird fashion party) with the addition of "the addition of live sound manipulation". Basically, someone artfully set the entire movie to new background music. It was so well done that I could have thought the movie was scored by a Berlin clubber. I haven't seen the movie since Mr. Manka's geometry class so I didn't remember what happened. But I DID remember how Black Swan freaked me out and I was afraid this would be the same. The movie didn't give me nightmares and was a great way to spend € 3 and a Tuesday night.


I've never been one to complain too much about the cold. Being from Minnesota and complaining about the cold off limits. I am so over the weather here. I just want to get out and walk around and do everything in Berlin but it doesn't want me to because it's blistering my face off. We have positive C's in store this weekend, hopefully I can use the nice weather to make a trip out to the airport to get my credit card application notarized by a Lufthansa employee.


Rewind... I need a EUR credit card. Even though my Capital One doesn't charge foreign transaction fees I just dont want to be spending USD when I could be using EUR. Since even Deutsche Bank charges for a simple Visa, Randi suggested getting an airline card. The entire application was in German, obv, and there was even a disclaimer that all communications would also be in German. Fine, not that it's going to stop me now. So I completed the application and at the end got to a page where I was instructed to print my application and have it signed by a Lufthansa representative at a German airport after he/she checks my credentials. So I thought, forget this, I'm going with Deutsche. Well, I still have to go to Deutsche in person and at least the airport is open on the weekends. So, this weekend I'm just going to pop by Tegel International Flughafen for a quick Unterschrift
