A friend of mine is worried that next year back in Ann Arbor is going to be a lot more boring than this year in Deutschland. I think everyone is. But let's look on the bright side:
My current sleep schedule will have me going to bed at 9 pm and getting up at 6 am. Imagine the possibilities!
Gas stoves! Being able to turn down the heat and have it mean something instantly!
We won't have to measure butter in measuring cups and get our hands all greasy or use complicated fraction methods involving grams to sticks and then ending up just eyeballing it—because butter is marked! With tablespoons!
There are so many cats in America!
(Sorry Fievel, it was a lie. Thank God. And thanks, Mommy, for making that song stuck in my head whenever I think about Jewish immigration.)
Unfortunately, the cheese is much better here, the parmesan is cheaper, and the only problem cheese-wise is that cheddar isn't ubiquitous.
BUT THE EASE OF BAKING. Real brown sugar. Not having vanilla brought across the ocean.
Come on, guys, it'll be all right. And maybe in a few years Ryanair will finally work out the £6 transatlantic flights, which will make Greece or any other place serviced by a budget airline only like £36 away on a good day. Plus getting to New York City first.

it's not boring just really depressing for like 3 days.
Yeah, I don't expect it to boring. Just for me to actually take the trouble to travel more, although not on the scale of this year.
Today I was actually very confused as to why I hadn't been on a train in almost a month.
to be boring*
I love turning down the heat and having it mean something instantly!
