Summer Edition ‘012 Day 43, 9th of September: The Return

Well, what is left to be said? I returned two hours ago, writing into the diary since I didn’t wright a word since I got to Paris. The day started nice: I had breakfast with Hanna & Ante, we watched some photos of our vacation & got to the train station. We said goodbye but not for long for we will see us the next morning at work!

The Last 10 songs of my journey:

1. Muse- Please, Please, Please
2.  Tomte- Schreit den Namen meiner Mutter
3. Chopin- No. 7 (Preludes)
4. Cyndi Lauper- I Drove All Night
5. Grizzly Bear- Slow Life
6. Motion City Soundtrack- Track 7
7. Die Ärzte- Paul
8. Dredg- Ode To The Sun
9. David Dondorero- Outbound Sound
10. Fleetwood Mac- No Questions Asked (Great Ending!!!)

When I got back to Freiburg I was afraid there were no trams to my place, luckily there were, but only leaving for my direction, because there are some constructions still!

Still I have to wash my clothes but wanted to finish this here- I know myself- it would lie here unfinished until whatever (just like the New York Diary and the blog, haha!)

This time was so magical!

I got to see so many places.

I got to learn so many faces

Belonging to great people

Whom I am happy to have met!

It was mostly positive & beautiful

I had great weather for british, irish and swedish circumstances.

We will see, what will come next ‘cuz you’ll never know and “Grab Your Luck While You Can, It MIght Be Gone By Tomorrow!”

XOXO my friends, I am home!

(Kommentar Samstag Abend vor der Abreise: Aaaaah! Endlich Urlaub!!! Juhu!!!

Finlly the journey starts! I packed my backpack, guitar and tote bag & walked to the trainstation, OMG how heavy my luggage was!!! But I didn’t walk the whole way of course, we have trams here :)

The train ride was quiet fine, I listend mostly to Nada Surf, recognizing I missed to transform some LP onto my musical device I am using newly, whatever…

I read “Life of Pi” (Schiffbruch mit Tiger) this book is giving me strange feelings I don’t know yet which exactly.

We didn’t have delay (hooray!) and right now I am sitting on the couch of my friend Lisa in Hamburg.
Notice: To get a weekly ticket for Metro in Hamburg, you have to have a picture (must be a photo, not only a print!) of you. I hope I can get one somewhere tomorrow!

Now I have to go to sleep, 10 pm I am very sleepy since hours, I tried sleeping on the train but that did not really work out! Tomorrow my course is going to start! I am very excited about that!! I have to go to the subway station “Hoheluftbrücke” and take the U3 to “Uhlandstrasse” to get to the HAW in Armgartstrasse- I hope the weather will be fine!!!

Good night

MSE 2012: The days before departure

OMG… I just looked up all of my post and found THIS VERY ONE to be only a draft… I wanted to post this already in late July :/ Sorry :D But that’s typical me… So I am just about to begin to tell about my vacation :)

Hello! Before I started packing or stuff like that a friend of mine came over to dye my hair once again before vacation. Actually I wanted to turn the blonde part into blue or green but since summer is know as one of the hottest hours around here I decided to stay blonde and brown. This picture happened after another friend of mine braided me my hair very beautifully :)

practicing packing… And looking what fits into my guitar bag as well :)
