(no subject)
It seems that my sickness vanishes when I go out to take a deep breath of fresh air and chat with classmates to pass the time. It's probably psychological, I need to get distracted, to stop thinking about my dizziness and sickness.
Phew, finally managed to sign up for all the compulsory English classes, which are: Verb I, Phonetics I, Morphology I, English Poetry I and a couple of other classes that aren't necessarily compulsory, but it's recommended that you show up.
Japanese classes are fun so far, the teachers are also friendly, though the Japanese ones don't understand us (and vice versa) so we just nod politely or use sign language, hah!
There's still a few things I must sort out before going home this weekend. I need student food coupons and a student index, but since I don't know my way around here, I'll have to ask a senior student or a friend here to help me out.
K., my roomie and I went to see a japanese movie yesterday in one of those underground cinema places. The movie is called "Hana-bi" ("firework") by Kitano. It's rather.. uhh... different and shocking, a nice and welcome change after all that American rubbish you get to see in major movie theatres. We had a great time together, K. is funny and very laid-back. Also, he has no problems meeting new people - I see him every morning in the nearby café, drinking coffee with his female classmates. Apparently... he has a girlfriend, but please - why does he spend so much time with other girls when he's already taken? And why isn't she bitching about it? I mean, there's only SO much you can tolerate before exploding from jealousy. Or maybe he lied about his relationship. Who knows, he's a mystery to me, because whenever we ask him about his past, he makes something up, and when we ask him the same question at a later time, he tells us something completely different. I smell Interpol here.
Can't wait to go home tomorrow, I've had enough of Ljubljana for a while. Sadly, I'll have to go back on Sunday, sigh. I miss my bed and my mom's cuisine. And I miss my home town and normal bus routes and the accent we speak there.... and I miss Manuela and S.G. and RPing and not having to clean up the whole house.
