Woche 17 - Alles Gute zum Geburtstag to me
Hello everybody :) This week has been overall pretty pants! I got another year older, am back and forth emailing GLS (the wooooooooorst postal company to exist maybe?), Joe left and I was back at work.
Words this week (they are pictures because I picked up the John Green book I'm reading in German):
Montag
My birthday. I woke up and opened my present off Joe (my parents' presents aren't here yet). Then I got ready to go to work. I got to work and my mentor and I worked out the timetable for this year. Afterwards Joe and I met up for lunch, we had a fish sandwich each. I also went to the Euroshop for some pens and notepad so I could write down Polish and Arabic vocab to learn (learned my lesson though- these pens are scratchy as hell). We went home, cuddled and ordered a takeout and he let me watch Jurassic Park!
Dienstag
I went to work and I was in my mentors class, who paired me up with a refugee student and I helped her with meaning and pronunciation of vocabulary. They were learning how to say what their New Year Resolutions are. After that, Joe and I went for lunch again for a chicken sandwich and a macchiato. Then we went home and cuddled (again). My birthday present from my aunt came so I opened that. We made chicken wraps, roasted carrots and wedges for dinner.
Mittwoch
Woke up at 6 because I was observing the kitchens for the first two periods.The students have their own little cafe. It looks like just a grey box (you know those "temporary" classrooms), but inside it was really swanky with artwork, leather chairs, their own bar, etc. All ran by the students and for the students. They had waiters, waitresses, bar staff, and cooks. Then I had a period off so just did some reading. I then went to my lessons, where I was introduced to the classes. When I got home Joe and I had to post a parcel. Then after about an hour or two of cuddling, I had to take him to Hamburg station. Man, that was hard.
Donnerstag
Woke up, went to work, came home. Literally flopped on the bed and cried and napped. Made a spag bol for tea but forgot the bol. Dad's present came so I opened that. Also a present I'd ordered for Joe for Christmas was delivered, not only a month late, but in three pieces (it was a mug). Amazon gave me a refund.
Freitag
Was in real bad mood. Cleaned the flat. Emailed GLS about where my mom's package was, because the tracker had said it was delivered on Thursday, after saying it was on the way for 2 days prior, but it wasn't. They said it'd be delivered on Friday then, which it also wasn't. Stop with the lies please. Had a bhuna that Joe had made out the freezer and watched Miss Congeniality.
Samstag
Wrote 5000 words of my book, so have almost finished. Pizza for tea.
Sonntag
In bad mood today also. Feeling very alone. Changed the bedsheets, emailed about some houses that Joe can go and look at, sorted out my bank and student finance, and prepared a lesson for Wednesday. Might go for a walk before dinner if I feel up to it.
