Tiramisu Schnitte! (21/1/11)

 

The day started out fine.

I slept very poorly the night before, so for the first time in Gaming I found myself filling my travel mug with… well, coffee, plus chocolate espresso.  There was no way I was going to let myself sleep through my first classes in Gaming.

Later I discovered that, apparently, the machine does NOT automatically add coffee when you press the chocolate espresso button… you have to press the coffee button first.  So I drank two full travel mugs of plain espresso and chocolate.  O_o

I only have two classes where the professors are actually in Gaming.  I went to Metaphysics first.  So far, Metaphysics is fun and interesting… in an annoying kind of way.  Just like all of the other philosophy courses I have taken.  Besides the looming 7 to 10 page paper, I think the class will be nice.

The coffee mug was in my backpack pocket.  I ran back to my room to grab some things for my other class, Christian Moral Principles.  I plopped my bookbag on the bed.  My mug decided to plop onto my sheets, making a minor spill.  It was quite frustrating.

Frustrations aside, Christian Moral Principles was good, and the teacher is pretty stylish.  I couldn’t help worrying about the sheets, though.  I figured I’d probably have to buy bleach.

So, after class, I got all bundled up, and got stressed several times (I think I forgot to put on my boots instead of my tennis shoes, and other related issues, probably involving Euros and tips on how to order the right thing…)

In the end, I was all set and ready to go… to be informed that there was bleach in the laundry room.

At this point, I was so flustered, I said to myself, I’m going to go down to Spar and get a cake!  And that’s what I did.

This is a pretty good cake.  It has tasty layers of cake and filling, and has a taste that makes me think of Butter Rum Lifesavers.  :-)

Note: I recently learned, through online research, that Tiramisu is actually an Italian cake thing.  Bummer.  I’ll have to look for something more German…

Second note: Yeah… you think the Italian flag and the Italian guy would have clued me in.  O_o

The purchase of the cake gave me an opportunity to show you some awesome Euros!

Yeah, that one cent Euro is pretty small.  Even smaller than a penny!

Some other pictures I took:

Ah, that’s right!  Lunch is on the left.  (Note the yellow things- those are potatoes, not squash.)  Dinner is on the right!  They served us American-ish food.  It was pretty good!
