Woo, Wochenende! Although actually today was pretty good, mainly because I'd actually read the entire novel (Rainald Goetz, 'Irre') for Popliteratur and therefore was able to actually concentrate and participate for 3 hours. Max, my teacher from the language course at the beginning of the semester, came in half way through to talk to our lecturer though, and it was kind of embarassing because I was playing with my phone under the table (it was a boring bit...) and he used to take the piss out of me for doing that in class before (it's kind of a habit *g*) so I went bright red, and my finnish friend (also Anna, heh... there are so many of us here!!) now thinks I fancy him. Oh well!
Yesterday was fun too - I have choir on a Thursday night, and I wasn't VERY up for going yesterday because I'd had a sore throat all day on Wednesday and I didn't want to risk screwing up my voice because we've got a concert next week. In the end I went, though, and my voice was fine, but also we had a Niklaus party afterwards (for St. Nicholas's day) and I went along, and not only actually got to know some of the (actually German) other choir members, but I found out that after the rehearsal weekend in January, they always have an open mic concert and people go and sing and play stuff - so I may actually get a chance to play some of my own stuff! Which would be great :)
Now this weekend I'm going to a flamenco night tonight, a birthday party tomorrow, and I'm having a gathering for mulled wine and mince pie eating at mine on Sunday night (I brought over a kilo of mince pie mix back from England. I love German Christmas but it's not the same without the mince pies!) And I need to go swimming, tidy my room, do reading, and buy a Christmas tree at some point. Which actually is exciting in itself - I love Christmas decorations but in London I'm never there close enough to Christmas to actually bother buying a tree. This year I'm in Berlin until the 23rd though, and I really wanted an excuse to buy some of the gorgeous ornaments from the Christmas markets. So I'm going out to buy a foot-tall Christmas tree tomorrow for 10 euros, hehe.
Hope everyone else is having a good weekend too!!
