OK OK I’ll write in my blog :D hehe…
Been missing America a bit… I’m so sick of riding my bike!!! hehe.. sometimes I really just wanna jump in my car and drive to the store… or drive to the mall.. or to my friends or ANYWHERE.. and then I’m like oh wait… I don’t have a car!! Jjjeezzeee..
In about a day I will celebrate the coming of my 26th year of life (HOLY CRAP).. I know I’ve been saying I’m getting really old for a few years now, but now I really am.. it’s so sad :/ people actually AGREE with me now!!! Instead of telling me I’m still very young.. they say ‘oooh 25? Wow, yeah you are getting old’.. really I’m not joking.
Aaahhhhh.. I’m old.. ¼ of a century… like.. a third of my life! AAAHHH omg.. how weird.
On my bday I have many presents to open : ) yay! Matthias is spoiling me with presents and a special bday dinner as well.. I am looking forward to it. Then I have a SIB meeting with a lecture.. and after that some friends at winsho will have some drinks with me. So it will be a nice day.
Last night I had a wonderful time with some friends from winsho.. I dunno why but I know a lot of people that live there and I like them all a lot : )
I was with a girl from England, guy from Germany, and France.. and a girl from Hungary. They were all very sweet and we had a wonderful time. We had some fancy cocktails.. I even tried a spicy chocolate martini (oouuuu) .. Then we went to a kind of Dutchy bar.. and then Enzo for some crazy dancing..
By the end of the night I was stumbling home with Matthias.. heh.. somehow, even if I’m really hammered.. I ride my bike like a CHAMP! But then, when I get off I can barely manage to stand… how that works I have no idea… but it’s really a great thing!
Other than that I have been busy with studying. I was working on a report last week and was really stressed out. I’m glad I got it over with, however now I have even more studying to do.
I have exams in a couple of weeks and I really need to hit the books. So this coming week, and next I will study very intensely. Not looking forward to it, but I do like learning German : ) When I can say something really great I will let you know.
I went out and took some pictures around the city the other day. I found some new stores close to my house. I realized recently that the layout of the city here is very different from home. At home there are lots of houses and shopping malls in spread out rather far. Here, there are lots of tall buildings and apartment complexes with lots of little stores spread throughout the neighborhood. There is a nice little café at the end of my street which serves delicious french fries.. YUUMM with mayonnaise.. even better!
Its really pretty just biking around and seeing some new areas of town. I also found a nice ‘thinking spot’ on a pretty bridge in a quiet place. I went to see my friend Patrick yesterday and met his friend from England/Holland. Patrick lives in an area of town where there are actually HOUSES!!! It seems like all I see lately are apartment buildings or town houses aka big buildings with many residences.
Sooo now I just got finished with a long German lesson and my brain is feeling a bit fried. My bday is in 7 minutes lol! NNNOOOOOOOO!!!! I want to stay 24 forever!

On your birthday I wish you much pleasure and joy; I hope all of your wishes come true. May each hour and minute be filled with delight, And your birthday be perfect for you! Instead of counting candles, Or tallying the years, Contemplate your blessings now, As your birthday nears. Consider special people Who love you, and who care, And others who’ve enriched your life Just by being there. Think about the memories Passing years can never mar, Experiences great and small That have made you who you are. Another year is a happy gift,
So cut your cake, and say,
"Instead of counting birthdays,
I count blessings every day!"
Happy Birthday Jennifer. It's unproductive to focus undue attention on time, which is a psychological illusion, flexible and follows your state of your mind. Engage in activities that capture your bliss and time will not be an issue. The more you focus on the passage of time the faster you age. You can stay 24 if you really wish it. It's all about attitude.
The description of your bar hopping activities reminds me of my youth, ah, the good old days. I had a similar talent for riding drunk but on a motorcycle until my first serious accident. That cured me. Enjoy it while you can.
Would it be worthwhile to purchase or maybe rent a small motorbike or scooter? I bought a small motorcycle while I was overseas but then one needs to deal with the issue of selling it before departure. I had no trouble doing that. They were in big demand, which I expect prevails in your location.
Again, Happy Barfday with love from Daddy Gee
OH JENNY! Happy Birthday! I'm so bummed that you are so far away and we cannot be together on this day, but I am also happy for you that you are following your dreams and having a grand adventure.
I hope that it turns out to be the most memorable birthday yet and that you enjoy yourself without reserve. Wait...how old are you now? 25 isn't it? At the beginning of your blog you said 26, but that can't be right...In any case, spring chicken you are. You haven't even clipped the tip of the iceberg. No, not even close. And Dad is correct in that age is a state of mind. My physicality is 40, but I haven't aged past ummmm...let's say 29. Yeah, 29 sounds about right. So, shake your tail feathers chicken of the spring and leave the old age fretting to those who are truly 'old'....which doesn't include me! LOL!
I love you sistuh!
