Well, after a hellish few days (yes, days) of traveling in order to get back to my apartment in Deutschland, I can finally breathe a sigh of relief. No more big-time traveling to deal with...at least for another six months.
At first this seemed like a pretty daunting amount of time to be spent here...and a large amount of that time being spent alone in my apartment, catching up with American TV series. I've been here four months so far, but for some reason "six months" seems like such a longer amount of time...
However, after sitting down to think about it, the time should pass pretty quickly. I have not only ONE group of buds coming to visit in April for a week (Kelsey, Nikki and Andie), but also I have Kate and Durst who are planning to come sometime in May. So that leaves January, February and March as the doldrums which I need to get through. The cold, dark months during which seemingly nothing is supposed to be happening.
I know some of you want to remind me that yes, I do have friends, so this shouldn't be too bad. This is true, but my budget can only afford a certain amount of visits to Muenster and other cities, so these will have to be planned wisely to make the time fly by.
Anyway, enough of my debbie-downer talk. I've decided that this is merely a negative side-effect of having been home for two weeks and constantly being surrounded by people and always having something to do. If I had actually stayed home, this would have inevitably happened in good ole Galesburg as well!
Will do my best to be better about blogging during this second half of my time in Germany. I'll be taking any suggestions for topics, because I seem to have trouble coming up with ideas...
Liebe Gruesse,
Mary
