Summer is Here!

Woohoo! My exams are over. I'm officially still in
term time, but in reality I'm on holiday until
September. Not that its all going to be resting. I
have quite a lot of projects on the go at the moment,
and I should probably make a start on my dissertation
over the summer.
I spent the weekend in Berlin, at the Federation of Young European Greens General Assembly. It was very interesting. At quite a few points, I was totally lost in the European variant of English that seems to have developed (manifestation is used to mean demo, odd), and a couple of times, I'm shamed to admit, I wasn't completely sure what I was voting for. I didn't get much chance to do touristy things, but I did see the Tiergarten and travel around Berlin on the U-Bahn and S-Bahn a little bit. I've also managed to become the subject of gossip among the DWARS delegation and one of the new executive committee members. Maybe I'll go into that in another post though.
