After college, like most of my friends, I have no idea. Our economy is really horrible at the moment and most people I know who have graduated college are just working small jobs like they used to in high school, it's kinda sad. Hopefully I will be able to make a living doing writing, photography, and film. What do you want to do later in life?

Oh I didn't know that your economy is so bad at the moment. I mean it's America... and I thought Germany was 'sick'.

And those small jobs suffice to live?

Uh... after my internship *kept the word Wink

* I will go to a school only for Hotel Experts for two years. After that you can decide if you want to go into the hotel managment or into event managment. At the moment I prefer event managment but it's five years in the future maybe after those years I prefer hotel managment *grin*

EDIT:

Okay.... my english is very bad at the moment - didn't sleep last night, so sorry for that Very Happy

Hey don't worry about your English, you speak it a lot better than some of my American friends, lol.

That's cool about the whole management deal; I'm sure it would be interesting to run large events or even an entire hotel.

Yeah...don't be so surprised that our economy sucks at the moment. We may seem hugely rich from the outside, but the British pound is worth twice the amount of the American dollar at the moment, so that'll tell you that we're falling behind in the terms of international economics.

Hehe, thanks! Very Happy

As I said... I didn't sleep last night and I'm 36 hours awake right now *gapes*

Jops managment is the best thing you can do if you didn't go to college over here. I mean there are a lots of other jobs, too, but the payment is much lower.

Yeah I heard of that. The Euro seems to be more worth than the American dollar at the moment either... just some cents but anyhow it's a little suprise.

Hm... got more questions or something to tell? Smile

What kind of music do you like?

Har har, nice question.

The kind of music I like is called New Metal, Goth Rock and Goth Metal.
Things like Evanescence, Trapt, Within Temptation, Nightwish, Seether, Dead Silent Slumber, Dark Sanctuary, In Extremo, Deine Lakaien (the last two are famous here in Germany, don't know about the US) and so on. Sometimes Metallica, too.

But sometimes also things like Avril Lavigne and Eve 6.

I liked Full Blown Rose who made the song to Tru Calling. Their other songs are cool, either.

What about you?

Cool, I'm big into Evanescence and Nigthwish, too. The new Nightwish album is awesome---can't beat "Dark Chest of Wonders." And I hope Amy gets her cute ass moving on putting out the new Evanescence album.

I like pretty much all styles of music except hip hop and country. I can listen to a bit of hip hop, like Eminem, Gorillaz, Kottonmouth Kings, etc., without minding too much, but country I just hate.

I dig punk (Strung Out, Lagwagon, Rise Against), rock (Collective Soul, The Darkness, Tom Petty), ska (Reel Big Fish, Mad Caddies, Save Ferris), screamo (The Silence, Alexisonfire)...and so on.

I am also a DJ so I love every genre of dance music (I have about 500 vinyl records), but my favorite genres are house, trance, hard dance, and UK hardcore.

Yeah cool, I like you kinda music.

Okay hip hop is something I absolutly hate... I can't explain why. Country.... hm.... hate that, too. The only Countrysinger I know is LeAnn Rimes but the songs which were famous around here weren't countrysongs, I guess.

House, trance and all that stuff is just good for dacing in discos. But that's only my opinion.

So what about traveling?

I do that a lot if I have the chance and the money. It's a pitty I got never out of Europe Sad

I'll be coming to Europe this summer with my roommate Colin and another friend of mine from Orange County. We'll be seeing every country we can within the few weeks that we'll be there. Other than that, I've been to a ton of states in the US: Hawaii, Arizona, Utah, Idaho, Oregon, Washington, Michigan, etc., and I've also been to Vancouver, Canada.

You should totally come over to the US sometime, check out Cali for sure. Wink

Hey cool... you have to see Spain, Italy and of course Germany (Munich and Berlin are interesting cities to visit) Wink

.

I would love to check out the US in some time but my financial position won't permit a trip like this. Maybe in a few years Smile

Florida, NY and California are the states I want to see... oh and maybe Hawaii Laughing

I would also like to see Australia some time. *sigh* Just dreams right now Confused

Yeah...I guess it's harder for Europeans to come to America, since you can't really take a train around to all the different states in any short amount of time like we can do when we visit Europe. America is huge.

We will definitely be visiting Germany, not sure which cities we're going through yet. I really want to see Italy, though...and of course we will have to stop by Amsterdam so we can get blazed out of our minds, hehe.

Yeah, guess that's right. Europe is huge, too, but the USA are much bigger Smile

Someday I'll visit the US - have to Cool

looool Yeah Amsterdam is important if you want something like that. The shops are called Coffeeshops (no... coffee is not their product Wink

) and they are very popular in the Netherlands. I live near the border to the Netherlands and many people I know go every weekend across the border to these shops. In Germany smoking weet is forbidden... oh well sice last week some gramme are allowed.
I never touched this stuff. Alcohol is okay but hash... Rolling Eyes

Oh... you have to see Venedig, too. And London... England is a wonderful country... I visit it twice and always found something new Smile

If you want good cheap food and drink (alcohol included Wink

) then visit Poland. There are also cheap prostitutes.

Okay... I talk too much Very Happy

You should get some kind of instant message program so that we can talk about Europe and America in a slightly faster way. Wink

As for the Poland thing...I'm actually 3/4 Polish (1/4 Italian) by nationality, but I'll pass on the prostitutes, thanks, haha. Besides, if you saw the girls over here in Cali, you'd realize why I'd never be interested in prostitutes from any country, but that leaves more for you, lol.

I will definitely be going to the coffeeshops in Amsterdam. Weed brownies!!! Very Happy

I'm also looking forward to London, since I'm a DJ and love the dance culture. What's Venedig?

BTW, if you want to check out my website and find some of my photography and other writings like poetry and whatnot, go to www.scarletdevotion.com -- some parts of it aren't finished yet, but there's a decent amount of stuff to look at. Wink
