Backstreet Boys?

Monday.

Classes were fine today. I got back my latest CIVA test and our 2 most recent papers, all of which I did well on, which made my Monday that much better :) After class, we spent a good hour or so trying to figure out the best way to purchase tickets for the BACKSTREET BOYS concert that we will be enjoying live next Wednesday night in Bratislava, Slovakia! For lunch, I headed straight to the Naschmarkt to enjoy what will most likely be my last kebab in Vienna...and was it good! Then, Sarah, Ricki, and I went to Cafe Mozart for the first time to study for the next day's German quiz. Next, a few of us traveled over to the Schonbrunn palace to get a tour of the inside; this is a former imperial summer residence for the Habsburg emperors. The interior is absolutely stunning, laden throughout with Rococo style artwork and ornamentation. We purchased audio guides, which were helpful to explain the history behind the Habsburg family as well as the significance of each room we entered. We headed back to the Christmas Market for a little bit. I enjoyed some more "Kinder-punsch", Christmas cookies, and caramelized almonds. Good dinner, huh? The remainder of my night was spent at the hotel preparing for the next day's Humanities test and German quiz. Oh, and we took a quick study break to have our daily session of abs/pilates. Good day, productive night.
