Bullet points

July 29, 2008 at 11:24 pm | In Books, Friends, Life, Work |
  • I received a reply about the internship I applied for. You know, that one … [sorry if you don't know what I am talking about, you should read my protected posts]. I just sent my application on Thursday, and already got an invite for an interview. It all sounds so promising. I really really really want it to work out, it would be amazing!
  • I signed up for a few classes for next semester already. The highlight? A class on Ian McEwan’s Atonement and On Chesil Beach. I finally ordered the first one on DVD and the book of the latter. Perfect. Excuse.
  • I read Eclipse yesterday. I need help. 25 should be too old to obsess over fictional vampires one fictional vampire that are is way too perfect to ever be real [besides the fact that he's a vampire]. I’ll only be disappointed to find that men? Really aren’t that perfect. Damn! Only a few days until the fourth book comes out, can’t wait!
  • It is hot outside. And even hotter in the office. I feel like my brain is mushy and I am incompetent this week. I cannot wait for it to be over. No one seems to be working either, they’re all off sick or on vacation. I miss my co-workers!
  • I love making new friends. I really hit it off with another girl [Elisabeth] at Jenn’s wedding. I think I may not be so socially awkward after all. Only with guys. Looking forward to hanging out with her when I am back in Heidelberg. Two new friends in a month is pretty awesome!
  • Apparently people [Americans] cannot tell that I am German when I speak English. Which is great! But apparently my German is starting to sound American. Which may be not so great. At the wedding I asked a German waiter in German where the restroom was and he replied in English. Wtf? Elisabeth also said that my German sounded American [intonation-wise and such].
  • Jenn’s wedding was great, Jenn was beautiful and you could just tell how much her husband adores her. I will post pictures later. [They are already up on Flickr and Facebook, though.] I think I may want to get married at a castle too, just as soon as I’ve found my Edward Cullen Prince Charming.
  • Boxes are all up in the attic. Now I will not have to worry about them for two months. Not sure how I will get everything back downstairs undamaged, though. I’ll ask my brother and maybe a friend of his to help me, because these boxes are heavy and the ladder up to the attic makes me shudder [on the inside] just looking at it. No way am I climbing up there.

    Good luck for the internship! I’ll keep my fingers crossed for you.

    I got “Twilight” in the mail yesterday, I can’t wait to start reading it, because I have heard/read so much about it. It will take a little while until I will start reading it, though, because right now, I am occupied with “Verwegene Spiele” by Francisco Casavella, a 1,000 pages novel (to be honest - I only bought it because it takes place in Barcelona), and there are still approximately 750 pages waiting for me. Wheee. Gotta love reading.

    And you’re never too old to obsess over anything. ;o)
