I spoke to my Betreuungslehrer on Friday and he said I should have a place to live by the end of the week, I also somehow ended up speaking to my headteacher, he seems lovely, but it was a terrible line and he was talking like an express train, unfortunately smiling and nodding doesn't work on the phone, I felt a complete idiot for having to ask him to slow down because I couldn't understand. Goran (my Betreuungslehrer), however has so far only ever spoken to me in English, thank goodness, but I suspect that'll change a week Thursday when we meet, which is probably a good thing.
Another good thing is Mark's announcement that he's coming to meet my train in Stuttgart, so we can travel to Tübingen together. This is a good thing, he has put fear in my heart over that station: "You realise half of its underground right?" I can cope with the tube, (more on that later), but I know the tube and its pretty simple and well signed. I will undoubtedly be completely knackered, stressed beyond belief- I do not travel well, particularly in an emotionally explosive state- and therefore my brain will be struggling to compute English let alone German! Though this is probably nerve induced, hyperbolic rambling.
Ah well...
Last Sunday I went down south to see Hannah. Three things: 1.My feet are now giant blisters, 2.Hannah and I are still unstoppable, 3. My Phone mysteriously disapparated.
In relation to No. 1 - ballet flats are not a good idea for a long day of walking, let alone 2, also my blister went green, it was really weird, there was no rhyme or reason to it, its not green any more, just sorta shiny.
Warning never take a phone to London. They going missing in mysterious/suspicious circumstances. I never knew losing a smartphone could be so stressful, that little mini heartache you have when you think you've lost it? Bah! That's nothing. The unparalleled horror at realising "Pants, its REALLY gone!" then "ALL MY NUMBERS!" then "WHAT IF THEY FRAPE ME!" Before I can get home ring my network and bar my phone. Thankfully it went missing on the last day so it wasn't too bad, but until my new phone arrived on Friday having to use a phone less technologically advance than my old 3410 ( at least that could access the internet! Sort of), was agony. But its over now.
So what did Hannah and I do? We went shopping (obviously), went on a really long walk, a fact we only noticed on the boat ride back, at the end of that walk tho was some very touristy activity and this:
Shouldn't be let out of the house me.
But then Hannah was at risk of the same thing.
The next day we went into London, coming out of Waterloo we naturally came to the London Eye, where we spontaneously decided to get on it!
We did lots of other touristy things which pleased Hannah immensely cos she doesn't normally get to!
Anyway,
until after I get there
