Berlin is still lovely. I'm mostly relaxing, studying, tutoring, and enjoying being able to stay in bed four days a week. I see a lot of plays and operas (they're practically free here if you're under 30) and have developed a keen sense of where to find free beer. My professor gave me permission to write my Bachelor's thesis on "the epic narrative structure of Brecht's Pirate Jenny and its reappropriation as an epic framework in pop culture for the purpose of English-language criticism of varying sociopolitical issues in the United States" - a fancy way to say I'll be graduating on Watchmen sometime this summer. I'm taking a course on Brecht at the moment, and one on linguistics as well, and I'm sitting in on history lectures every Tuesday by a man who looks (and sounds) uncannily like he's being played by John Cleese.

Unfortunately, I don't have a scanner here, so even though I've been doodling a fair bit I can't post anything high-res to my gallery. I'm mostly working on a commission for a pretty massive wall decoration in ballpoint. It's going to be awesome. (I should also probably take some proper pictures at some point of the bar top I decorated a few years back, which I'm still quite proud of. There's too many things on my devart from four or even five years back that seem like they're from a different lifetime altogether.)

I've become somewhat addicted to Facebook.
