Ladies and gentlemen, I don’t have a lot to say today, but I
do have good news and bad news.
Let’s start with the bad news.
The bad news is that I got my ass kicked this week by a
really bad case of homesickness/being fed up with everything/hating everyone, and
then DHL/Deustche Post decided that they may or may not be sending my Christmas
present from my family back to America (Merry Christmas to you too, German
postal service). Also I finally paid (most of) the deposit for my apartment,
which means that I have 8 euro in my bank account until I get paid at the end
of the month, however that hasn’t stopped me from buying plenty of gluhwein and Haribo
Christmas candy.
But, blinding irrational rage and homesickness aside, I do
actually have some fantastic news. As of last Wednesday I am no longer at the “problem”
school, and my new school is a match made in heaven. It is more of a business
vocational school, where they are studying shipping, tourism, and travel, which
is right up my alley. The students are well behaved, have a high level of
English, and, unlike at my other school, I don’t feel like they are going to
steal anything of mine if I leave it lying around. I’m mostly just observing
classes right now to get a feel for how they do things here, but I can already
tell that this school is a much better fit for me. So big sigh of relief for getting
my work problems resolved, and in other good news I just made Oreo brownies to
celebrate this week being over.
That’s all for now folks, please enjoy the rest of these pictures of
fireworks from the Winter Dom!
