Intensive German

Man, the name of the class should give you a good idea of what I'm going through right now. They weren't kidding, it is very intensive. I am loving it and learning a fair amount of German though. We just had a long weekend because of Easter break and I got to go out and see a lot of the country side. There is even a place in the hills that you can walk to where they have a large portion of the rubble from the city after WWII. Apparently almost 45% of the city was destroyed then. I am gaining a lot of appreciation for things that I have taken for granted back home.
