Good Things About This Week (and Playing in My Head #3)
When shit hits the fan (for example, my hard drive crashing and wiping out
EVERYTHING. Things of note: photos from Morocco, my best broadcasting
clip, and my entire music library) I need to consider Good Things About
This Week, otherwise I turn into such a little sad-sack, it's pathetic. I
did have my time to wallow in self-pity, but I obviously need to move on
because there's nothing I can do to recover...(sob)....those documents.
(scheiss, scheiss, scheiss)
SO:
1) Obama. I really needn't say more, and there is nothing else I can really add that hasn't been said already. I just wish I was able to contribute one way or another to what will now go down in history. However I am certainly content with just being excited to see what's to come...a relief, really, after the mortifying thought of Palin being in the White House.
2) German class. I've already forgotten a lot, and I didn't know too much to begin with...so this helps. And I just love the language so much.
3) Surviving Crossfit. I mean, I'm still a buttercup in this whole workout, but that doesn't mean it doesn't
hurt like a MOTHER.
4) Meeting up with one of my close friends from Munich in LA for NYE.
5) Another girlfriend, who I met in Munich too but is from Lyon, will be doing an internship in Lasalle, Quebec sometime in the new year. I know it's not exactly the closest city to me, but she'll be hopping over the big pond and into my country! It's funny though; when I visit her, she will have to show me around, and translate for me...in my own country. It is a shame French was never mandatory here.
6) A friend sent me the cutest package from London. A mixed CD (thank god, as I don't have any of my....*sound of my heart cracking a wee bit* music), a pocket book, and these beaded bracelets I had left behind.
7) Work has been pretty busy this week. It's great; I like busy.
8) Am excited to meet a buddy I haven't seen since I left for Germany, for drinks right after work tomorrow.
9) Knowing that Jenn will be stopping by this weekend!
10) Having a warm knee-length jacket, so I can still wear stockings and boots, and be ok. Plus, this time of the season means evening ice skating and hot chocolate in Olympic Plaza soon, and Christmas.
The week isn't even over yet!
LG,
Erika
