The Bernstein Bears have Breakfast in Bed

I got the best idea, ever.
Actually I got the idea from a girl in my class.
I went out to Migros (grocery store) and bought, OJ, Milk and cereal. I stash the cereal, bowl and spoon under my bed, and put the OJ and Milk outside on the window sill.
You wake up, obviously you have about zero desire to go downstairs and eat carbs and jelly, so you reach up, grab the OJ and milk, reach below, grab your spoon, bowl and cereal.
PA-KOW. You have breakfast in bed.
AAAAAmazing. I did it this morning, and it will forever change the way I do breakfast here.
But I was warned, this activity could ensnare me, and make me it's slave. Soon I will consider all meals a nuisance unles they are enjoyed in the confort of my bed, and perhaps an episode of Lost, or Arrested Development on. It's kind of like the Ring in LOTR, it will eventually consume me. Keep me in your prayers so that I find a balance, and am able to control myself when it comes to my eating habits in bed.

This past Saturday, we went to Bern, the capitol of Switzerland. I discovered that the Bernstein Bears live in a pit in the center of Bern. They are real, legit bears, that the children's storys are about.
They are by far the laziest bears in existence, they are actual famous for how lazy and pathetic they are. We actually roused one out of hibernation by throwing food near it so it got it's lazy butt up and starting eating...it took awhile for it to wander out of it's little cave thing.
Anyway, Bern is super old school European town. Cobblestone, old cathedrals you name it. Super beautiful, super awesome. So, if you're wondering, no, we did not go snowboarding. However, I did sleep in till 1130 am, had a 3 hour snow fight outside, hit the jump we made for 2 hours and then just hung out. Best Sunday yet.
This past week we had a girl named Christi-anna speak. Her speaking wasn't all that new, or life-changing, but how she lived was. Like I wasn't afraid of her, just intrigued I guess, but I knew she was very much in the presence of God, she had like an aura surrounding her. She was a powerful woman of God. She was confident that God would protect her from anything, she did not fear demons or Satan, they feared her. And that couldn't be more true. Some of her stories are intense.

Other than that, I know people have been asking about who I'm with, and my roommates and all. This is all the people in my school.


Matt S, Ben G, Jon (not Koren Jon), Kurt and Yohan are my roommates.
Cheers.
-jon.

P.S. Karlyn and Falk sent me a splendid package. Thank- you sooooo much.
Made my life.
