I always restate it

I hope you feel that heavy gloom when you're all done up in a crowded room
And your life trips up over those shoes that you paid too much for but not in dues
And I'll be watching from a distance
Wouldn't wanna miss this
Was it fake the whole time
Was it just instance
Man it's so personal yet it's business
I want it to hit so close to home

Been listening to this song so much! can totally feel the feels from Parker

Anyway... I'm finally back! Been meaning to blog but rly no time I don't even know how

So much has happened in the past one month. Went from super homesick and oh lawd why did I come to germany to omg I never want to leave. Learned a LOT about culture and whatnot, and improved a bit at small talk... I think. Maybe not.

Konstanz has been thoroughly beautiful and I'm so glad the school allocated me to this uni and not my first choice, Mannheim, which I've heard is super boring/depressing. Staff at the uni are super helpful, the teachers are great, the lake of course is gorgeous, and I barely knew the NUS people that I flew here with, but now we hang out like every day and I'm not sick of their faces yet, so. Really thankful for everything that has gone so smoothly with exchange (excluding the visa cockups and other admin problems my friends have experienced. So much for german efficiency, seriously. It's a myth.)

Also, all the travel and insurance fees is no joke. Still not entirely sure if all the trouble, time, effort and money was worth it, but at least I really like it here.

Summer's round the corner and the lake will be even more beautiful then (but apparently hordes of tourists flock here in the summer too)

Still can't believe it's been a month and GO-Konstanz is over. But omg 3 weeks break!!

I'm so excited for the next few weeks, cos I'll be travelling starting tmr, all the way till the day before my first day of school. But it's also kinda scary cos I'll be embarking on my first flight alone tmr, to London. !!

Places I'm going: 3 cities in Scotland > Amsterdam > Brussels > Prague > Bratislava > Budapest

This is gonna be the holiday of my life :') wish me luck.
