Random life update
I was kindly... persuaded, by my labmates one time to bring cake *coughextortioncough* for our Tuesday troubleshooting meeting. Having no oven of any sort, I ended up making some custard and buying some fruits and instant pastry. I'd say I pulled it off quite well, what do you think?
That was ages ago though. Like... I don't know, late October/ early November? So much has happened since that I've been wanting to post about but just thinking about assembling all the pictures for the narrative is daunting. But man, I need need to post about the Soft Skills course. It needs to be documented. Not just because there was a high school girly crush involved, but also because I enjoyed it more than I should have. Then again it might be the high school girl crush. I don't know, I'm confused now. Damn hormones.
Hmm... what else? Is it strange that I'm still loving it here? I mean seriously, I'm still expecting something to go terribly worong, something to happen that will make me develop some sort of love-hate relationship with this country, the culture, the people. So far there's only either love or indifference. I haven't hated anything yet. It's been three months and I haven't hated anything yet! I'm waiting to start hating winter but with an efficient snow clearing and heating system everywhere, I can't say I've been felt anywhere near miserable with the weather. It's weird how, after Korea, I haven't completely allowed myself to "settle" with the comforts of living here. Like somehow I'm expecting the water to run out or the heating to go off. Or the molds to start spreading from all corners of my room. I don't know. Everything is too clean, too pretty, too efficient, too nice, I can't help being suspicious that as soon as I start getting comfortable, somebody pulls the rug from under me and be like, "haha you got punk'd sucka! Go back to the tiny moldy room with no heating! >:D" Seeeriously. I am living too comfortably here. Something must be up. *paranoia* :-S That said, I do like it and don't want things to change too much (unless if for the better hahah).
What else? Right. Christmas parties. One last week, three this week (one of which I just came home from), and possibly two more the following week. Germans don't kid around about Christmas, do they? Pretty awesome though. :D
Hmm. Ok now I know one thing I hate. Stupid limited internet. Can't cause more than 4gb data traffic in a span of 6 days. And no torrents! DDDD:
There, at least there's one thing I hate.
Oh and dry rice. Horribly dry rice.
