I'm currently on a one-person study tour through the US to research the ongoing presidential elections. I will post larger, in depth-pieces to American Studies Leipzig's election blog and will use my personal blog below to report on the everyday encounters. More information on my journey is also available in this news item. Please enjoy reading, and please comment or ask questions.

The 7th Floor And The Myth Of The Christmas Pickle
We are in the middle of midterm season which feels very weird. Again I have to admit it is going too fast. Alright, enough whining. Midterm season means many hours in the library and long long nights, at least for me. I prefer working at nighttime. Due to the various books I needed for my papers and midterms I got to know the library pretty well.
