work, uni, doctors and a bit of other stuff...
got my international student identity card, so a new thing done from my long to do list before Australia!
went for a 40 min run with one of my flatmates.
got 3 other ones to sign up for the run (great!)
have uni tomorrow at 10 (skipping the 8 o'clock thing, as usual...), havn't done any homework for that (and we had a lot to do), have two boring english classes too...

so, I have private healthcare here in germany which some people think is better and it is probably but most people argue because they think you are better treated by doctors and in hospital but you're just not! I had an appointment at 16:30 today and it was not before 17:43 that they called my name up!!! and then the whole thing didn't last until 18:00 and the bill is over 202 euros! thats just ridiculous! I don't know about the money but the time I had to wait! So so stupid!

Another thing which is bothering me right now is money. I do have saved quite a lot right now but most of the money will be spent in Australia for either now my six week long trip or needed during my internship there which starts in june next year but still. I do need new stuff once in a while. right now I am looking for a new pair of jeans cause the latest ones I bought from H&M on sale for 5 € just happend to become too big... I don't understand how this is still happening. and I hate it. Last week I wanted to give blood but the refused to because I didnt weight enough. Stupid. And I don't eat healthy or regular or what ever... I don't eat junk food but still, when I eat I do eat a lot. I talked about this today with one of my flatmates how my allergies and stuff are good and bad in the same way. Good because I do have to check what I am eating and that's why I don't buy much processed food nor heaps of dairy things or sweets but bad because I have to spent a lot of money for food and sometimes it is quite hard to find something to eat for me which depresses me too. Argh. I wish I had no allergies. And now the orange time started again, how I hate it. my skin started to look like if I were 13 again and it is just not fun at all. It is seriously going on my nerves and there is nothing to do about this allergy because how should I be able to skip oranges, or more Limonene's, it is not possible! it is almost everywhere! Hate, hate, hate it. I do have to take of the skin of most of all fruit and veggies so I can be sure that there is less Limonene's on them now and having people around eating oranges is just a pain. I start to feel dizzy and my skin turns red and itchy too.

Oh I could go on and on and on...

So the last times at my uni work I never had much to do and mostly it was drinking tea, talking to my coworker and keeping her from doing her work, but today I finally got stuff to do, and oh how good is it to finally be able to do something good with your time. Ok, it is nice to get paid for doing nothing but strange how quick that turns out to be boring!
So today I got a few duties but been stopped by our 'opendoortime' or however you want to name the two hours when students can come and ask questions on how to go abroad. Well, some face were familiar and my boss was quite impressed by that and with the fact of my knowledge about Australian and Swedish universities. After that I got to feed our databank with different things, go to write email, had my first phone call, send my first letter and many more to do. It might sound strange but I am happy that I am finally able to do work and I am looking forward to the time when I can host these two hours by myself and don't need to sit next to my boss listening to what she is saying.

After work I used the information there to do more study about my plan of serving an internship in Australia and got some more information, back home I was able to send more applications and some other mails related to these things.

Now I am waiting for a response of my date for an interview and some other informations from different people.

Now I should start doing uni work as in study for my actual courses or rather do some exercises or should I rather go for a run (it's dark, cold and windy...)...?

But I'm quite sure that you'll tell me Just how I should feel today

Monday morning and I just want back into my bed. Yesterday my flatmates and I been at IKEA which was a fun trip, we needed some stuff for the flat but of course ended up with nothing cause we couldn't decide what to get. different taste of colors come together... The day ended with us three sitting in front of the television watching Tatort, which is a typical german tv series in different cities and somehow actual topics of politics or other things are mixed into a crime movie, and they do all well every single time. So that's what we do Sundays at 20:15.

On Saturday I've been to a concert of great San Cisco and afterwards danced all night long into the next morning together with some friends, much appreciated night. We took pictures in my favorite photobooth on the way back home.

Today is monday and a stressful week is waiting for me. 19,5 hours of uni classes, 14 hours of work and a city tour with all the exchange students on saturday. I need to start running, like seriously, I wanted to start today but got out of bed way too late. Now C is blocking the bathroom and I'm bit worried it might take too long and I end up getting too late to uni. So breakfast first.

Work party

This just perfectly describes last night, a lot of alcohol, actually too many for my part... Still in recovering... Good thing, it is only my stomach and not my head, nothing worse than serious headaches/migraines after drinking!

Me today...

Crap picture I know... So this is how I looked like before I started working today... First thing I did while taking the trash out, giant black spot on my white shirt, great. Some minutes later while I did coffee I just randomly managed to push over two big caffee lattes which is almost one litre of coffee, great one...
So now at home I can just put everything in the washing machine...

So, today I've been working the whole day. First five hours at uni where I didn't do that much but I get paid anyway of course and then with half an hour break I worked at the cafe too for only four hours but much more stress and work.
Had bread and cheese for dinner which is totally fine with me and now I'm trying to relax with a bit of crocheting.

back from the start.

So. Today university started for me again. at 8 am. No good start at all. Way too early. I forgot my tea in my keepcup in the kitchen and remembered it while we ate lunch at 11.30 !
So, every second week on mondays I start at 8.15 am, having a course in cartographic data processing. Today he talked about exel... so boring. Later one the course cartographic print media started and by the end of this semester I have to hand something which could be used in a calendar. That course every year creates a calendar which then will be sold to everyone and if you're happy and you did good, your print will be in there. So we had to choose a region to create a calendar page about. I took the Australian Grampians National Park in Victoria where I will be around December!
I've been at the post office as well, getting my shoes, but sadly, they don't fit so I'm going to send them back, and they are so pretty... but no point in buying shoes which are too small... :(
And still no good news about a possible new phone contract. I'm sick of it. No energy to bother about it any more. So no new phone for me, no new contract, just so sick of it.
Tonight my last flatmate is coming back to Berlin and we celebrate with ordering sushi for dinner, oh, how am I looking forward to that!

what a friday night...

while my flatmate is preparing to go out and party, I just printed 26 excercise papers and some exampapers as well... Oh how am I looking forward to this weekend? Not at all. But I have to and we will see how it's going, Monday at 10 am... I hate exams, and I hate myself, once again, for starting too late to study but that's how it is. Nothing to change about now... And don't want to move the exam into my finaly semester when I have to write and creat my thesis and still have 3 other courses to do... buhuhu.

microwave pumpkin!

So today after uniwork, which was bit boring cause I didn't really had to that much but say 'hi, how are you, all good with you in Berlin...' maybe 40 times, I went to a slightly bigger supermarket on my way from uni back home, with the thought of only buying milk and yoghurt but ended up with so much more and one of the things was a microwave pumpkin. apparently it comes from Japan, or the original ones do, and it is meant to be cooked in the microwave, or it is possible to cook it in there, oven works fine too.
So this is how my dinner went...

this is the pumkin, it is not that big and serves one person really well, ok I'm used, as a vegetarian to not eat too much...

cut of the top part and get all the seeds and strings out

put it in the microwave like this for 5 min and then with the top on again for 5 more min.

in the meantime I made a sourcream-yoghurt-thing, onion, garlic, tomato, curcumber

chop it fine, fine, fine.

add salt and pepper and mix everything well (tomato and cucumber is inside here as well)

I had some turkish bread from my local dönerplace with it

watched more white collar and paused the triple j radio

pink stuff I'm drinking is magnesia mixed in water and some vitamins

and this is the end.

it really tastes great and its a fun thing to eat. I first ate it out of the pumpkin but later on I (and now my english to explain does not exist anymore...) anyway, just don't forget to eat everything besides the skin :)

Tuesday and it feels like Thursday!

Got up really early this morning (6am) studied and talked to my boyfriend had a power nap and went off to my exam which started at 10am finished around 12 ate lunch at uni, finally again after two month of summer break, got home, more talk with R and then off to work again which was really strange, never started working at 4pm, no customers and you only clean and nothing else... Had a great iced-vanilla-chocolate-coffe-latte and good talks. And I got surprised by the weather! When I'm in my room and the curtains are closed its always low temperature and I have to wear a cardigan even if it's really hot outside so it sometimes really surprises me how warm it is in Berlin which happened today as well. So instead of a nice morning run I went for a evening run instead, always trying new routs around my block. Then two of my very good friends here in Berlin came over to eat left over soup which I brought from work together with bread and some really cheap organic red wine which didn't taste great at all but good conversations and party make up for that. We've been catching up on so much things and it was really needed. So now I'm going to bed with a big of. heavy head. Working in uni tomorrow and I'm looking forward to talking English with all the exchange students, meeting new friends and get to know more people! And a bit of trigonometry study will also happen, hopefully... Exam on Monday!!!!
