- I want to do music in my life. Hello, no money/parent's basement/generic rage/alcoholism/profit? I don't want to do physics, it will literally suck my soul dry. I've had music in my head 24/7 over here...my own stuff. Next year, hopefully I can make some of these mental seeds blossom, but we'll see. I'm pretty sure I don't suck, and I can do it...but it's a lot of luck and a lot of other things. I'm gonna spend a lot of time next year at Midd exploring my possibilities and chances. If I ask some of you for opinions, be honest with me.
- I need a skillset. I already have moderate computer skills, but I need to keep going with cooking, and I need to start with cars and other household doo-hickeys.
- Artists that define this time for me: Björk, Jamie Cullum, Claude Debussy, Maurice Ravel.
- Big shout-out to the New School friends I've made, none of whom will (not unkindly) read this, for being totally fucking awesome people and I can't wait to chill with y'all in the city.
- Best German beer: Franziskaner Hefeweissbier Dunkel. Cost: 70 cents. Germany: FUCK YEAH.
- Germans are great people. Relaxed (a little too much, but still), organized, friendly, safe, not terribly ambitious, accomodating, problem solvers...literally fantastic, the way this culture thinks.
So main thing: my German has gotten better, my life has come into better focus, and I've learned a thing or two about my own person. Academically, this semester may have sucked, but otherwise, it's been good, Germany. I'll be back, promised.
