day 25

day 24
not much happened today either. I researched the trip i plan to make to munich next week i plan to spend two nights there and three days. i plan to ride my bike to the next station because i can save 2 euros that way then take the train to munich (i might be able to pay with my credit card) then i will walk around the marion platzz (the town center) and loo at the buildings and possibly go up into some of them. then i will check into my hostel which should be very close to the town center (i will pay for this online with the credit card) and sleep fore the night. they should have lugage lockers so my laptop should be safe at night and if they don't i will use my laptop lock cable in conjuction with the smaller luggage locks i have to keep the bag mostly secure. i have an option of

private twin room expensive!!
3 bed private expensive
5 bed mixed dorm less expensive
6 bed mixed dorm less expensive
and 14 bed mixed dorm which is the cheapest

i'm going with the mixed 14 bed dorm. they should have internet connections and wifi (infact i'll just post a link http://www.hostelworld.com/availability.php/MeiningerCityHostelMunich-Munich-5947 )

the next day i will go to tour castle neuschwanstien and Hohenschwangau. that should take all day
then the next day i will go to dachoe concentration camp after seeing the german mueseum.
then i will get on a train and come back to schwabish hall i decided to only go with the trip to munich because there isn't much in nurnburg and it would effectivly double my expences.

i plan to bring with 500g of spagehitti and a can of tomatoe sauce and a pack of rice cakes, pretzels, and fresh rolls. this should all fit comfortably in my laptop bag along with other essentials.

now for the explanation of my fear of not graduating and the solution.
i looked at my transcript and realized that i needed to complete 37 credits between now and graduation. i figured that max i could take here was 17 and the max i could take next semester was 17 totaling 34 (3 credits short). then mom looked it up on the abroad web site and the goethe credits don't count for fall semester they are summer credits however i will either earn 12 or 8 credits at goethe i'm not sure which right now if i complete 12 there will be no problem with graduating i will only need 13 credits to graduate and i will complete 14.5 next semester any way so no problem. however it i only get 8 credits i will need to do 17 credits nexts semester which seems like alot but if i take the classes i was planning on taking and orchestra and a music lessons and play production (three classes that are virtualy imposible to not get an A in my grad point average shold improve and i will graduate however i will have to pay slightly more to take music lessons. also none of these classes will get in the way of my work study. if possible i would like to find a course to replace music lessons but i'll cross that bridge when i come to it. all ineed to do is get infor mation and i should have all the info i need for a long time by sept 4th when i have my advising apointment with ruth.

hopfully i should have responces to my facilities maintenece question my the end of the week. over all i'm pleased with my current situation.

well thats all for today.
