Rewind...48 days in Germany (1)

Have to catch up with some past events that happened during the last 48 days...

I joined my dear during my first week in Germany to attend a conference in Regensburg, south Germany. The journey took 7 hours by train and we arrived there exhausted although I must say that the German railway belongs to the best ones in the world. The train was punctual and comfortable that came with on-board service. I couldn't resist myself to consume some German made ice creams...hmm...My dear and I spent most of the time sight-seeing except the time at which he had to make his presentations. We tried the famous German 'Ham Zhu Shao' (Schweine Haxe), we both coundn't manage to finish it. Although I must say that the architectures there are not as astonishing as I was expected...it was a bit disappointing. The St. Peter Dom is my favourite among all and it just looks so magnificent from every angle. My dear promised to bring me to Munich next time where there are more to see and to experience the real Bayern. I hope he will keep his promise or else...hihi...

48 days in Germany

Recalling back the first day I arrived in Germany, my thought was a mixture of excitement, curiousity and fear...

Knowing that I am going to start a new life here... knowing that it will be a worthful experience that I am going to go through.... after 4 years of long-distance relationship with my dear, finally we could spend more time together now...EXCITING

Although I had been here to visit my dear two years ago in Germany during my semester break, it is different this time as I am preparing to start my postgraduate study in a country that is so 'abnormal' and definitely not the first choice for most Malaysian students to further their studies. I have to first learn the languange and get used to the German culture. Can I afterall accept all these changes that are going to happen around me? CURIOUS

Have been working for two years after my study in Malaysia. Although stressful but still enjoyed every moment and greatful to all my ex-colleagues and friends who have helped me along the way. I always think that I am a workoholic and don't know really if I could break off from my working life to pursue my study. Learning a new language in this stage of life is definitely a challenge to me, how if I messed it up? Have had so many problems when applying for a visa in the last months...nearly gave up, it delayed my plan and my German course has started four weeks ago and I know I am way behind. Can I catch up? FEAR

Now, one and a half month has passed, to be exact 48 days. I am glad to be able to spend more time with my dear. I like the comforting cool weather and the fresh air I get to breath here. My German teachers are so kind to help me to catch up and I got to make some new friends from all around the world...Philipine, Vietnam, Poland, Turkey, Arabic countries etc. Guess what? I just completed my first semester today! I am so glad and already looking forward to the next semester which is going to start in a week! Everything has gone smoothly and I am settling down. I am so thankful to my dear who has supported me and encouraging me every moment. Nevertheless, I still miss my family and all my friends back home in Malaysia. I wish all of you ALL THE BEST and thank you for being such truthful friends. I will share my life here with you and hope that we can keep in touch this way. MISS YOU ALL :)
