2.5 weeks, 2.5 weeks. Wow. How could the year be so insanely langsam and so schnell, gleichzeitig?
I passed the point of "I want to go home now!" about three hours after meeting my new host family.
I passed the point of "I don't want to go home, ever!" about three hours ago. I guess I'm ready. It will be quite, quite strange to speak in English, to not be allowed to drink beer anymore, to have to listen to my father complain about his life and bite my tongue as he calls me stupid and makes sexist jokes, to drive a car again, to finally have responsibilities, to no longer eat bread for two out of every three meals daily. But it was just as strange to get acquainted with this changes in the first place, so I won't have too many problems. And I'm excited to see everyone again, both in Berlin and at home.
The one sentence I'm dreading: so what did you do this year?
