  1. wait; they put your names on the list of a club? what the hell. i feel like i got a raw deal compared to you. nice sunshine, beautiful weather, clubs, etc. i got gothic churches every ten feet, shitty rainy weather, and germans who take us to the lamest pubs ever.

    damn. hope you're having a wonderful time. im still super jealous.
