It's a wrap...

Hey there! I am so sorry that my last post was in February. Since then a lot of things have happened and I was to stressed, focused and overwhelmed to dedicate much time for my blog. I had so many things I wanted to share but I was too busy getting other things sorted out. That is why I started Weekly Snapshots On Wednesdays, to keep you up to date what's going on in a very short and simple way. But it turned out not to be as easy since I have to do a lot of stuff with the pics before I can upload them. Sure it's a lot easier with Picasa (which I use) but it's still work and figuring out which photos to use, collage them and write something about it was too time consuming the last weeks but I hope to do better from now on...since I got everything settled. But from the beginning:

After my last entry I had some time off. So I did things you normally do when you don't have a schedule: RELAX AND DO NOTHING. But that only lasted a week or so. It was also my birthday and turning 25 is not all just fun. I guess the 'real' life starts now...at least for the authorities (insurance, bank...) so I had a lot of appointments and figuring things out. I also had a job interview which was kind of really nice and it calmed me down for upcoming ones since the interviewers were really nice. Even though I didn't get the job, I got a different positive answer from a university...but one by one. After all the appointments, things changing and still no idea what I was going to do from April on I wanted a break, but there was just no time for that. So when I received an email on the 6th of March I jumped for joy. I got into University of Hamburg!!!yayyyyyy I was so excited when I read that email. After two months of worrying about what I was going to do after my BA studies, I had finally got some clearance and my nerves were soothed (which was good too, because I still had to write a term paper and have my final BA exam). Now I was even more thrilled to wrap up my BA studies and finish up that last paper. So I wrote the last paper in my BA studies and was surprised when the teacher told me my grade two or three days later after I submitted it to her. The last couple of days at home I spent going to the cinema and spending some time with friends before I had to go back to Germersheim to study hard for my final exam. So I studied for a week and didn't do much besides. Two days before the exam I thought I learned everything and I had no idea what to study further, so I decided to meet up with some friends and say goodbye, since I knew these days were going to be the last ones in Germersheim... There is a saying when you come to Germersheim: You cry twice...when you come to this town and when you leave it. Coming because you are shocked it's such a small town (I didn't, I was just curious about how uni life was going to be) and going because you'd miss it somehow (well I am not sad for leaving Gtown, I'm just sad for not seeing all my friends again before I left, but I know we'll stay in touch, so my worries were at a minimum...I had such a big experience in a head of me that I couldn’t wait for it to start).

So the last week of March was a stressful one: On Monday I had my final exam and I passed it *yay*. After that I had to go to some offices to exmatriculate myself and all that stuff and then I had to pack the rest of my belongings. The next day my parents came and we stuffed two cars with all my stuff... I still can't believe how much stuff there was left since I already took home so many things...:/ Wednesday and Thursday I was going through all that stuff again and figuring out what to take to Hamburg. This was not as easy since I didn't really had a clue what I need in my new apartment. I knew that I had a room for myself but I had no idea how the kitchen and bathroom situation was handled (now I know :P) So I packed the things I thought were useful (guess there is still stuff I didn't bring with but could use...) and again stuffed the car!;)
After the Easter holidays I drove off to Hamburg and now I am almost a week here and can't believe how that first week got by so fast... but I leave that for another post!;)
So that was my crazy March…and I hope to write regularly again from now on!
