It is CRAZYY, how fast time flies, it really shocked me 2day when somebody told me that I am now for the 3rd(!!) week in Geneva... To me it still feels like the beginning of week 2... Creepy ;)
Very slowly, a rythm is starting to develop but I probably won't get a boring day-by-day life... There is wayy too much happening & I still get to know like 5 new people every day!
I'm also getting used to the French lectures although I usually understand MAX. 60% of the content, but what for do we have WIKIPEDA in a lot of languages with a lot of entries ;)
Many of the Profs also really try to pronounce their French cleary if ERASMUS are in class, that is a biiig PLUS+... It's actually nearly unbelievable how good the teachers are... You can talk to them, ask them why they did or said this & that, they really know how to command respect and NOBODY dares to walk all over them... Austria can learn from them, really ;)
Tuesday is now my "CANADA"-day, cos I manage to to meet Chris everytime in kitchen & afterwards we go watch TOP GEAR!!!
Wednesday is aaalways ESN-day where we usally have a pub-night, where I SADLY cannot stay very long because I have (yet, I might drop it^^) class at 8(!!!!) in the morning where I should know all about operating systems & networks ;D
Thursday is the "EVERYTHING CAN HAPPEN"-day (Big Bang Theory FTW:D)... I never know where I will end up... I might poker with some people at the student's home, go out or just cuddle up with my laptop and watch TV -shows... Or I might write a blog (like today :P) xD
One very particular incident this week:
Tuesday, 13.30, Tram station:
We just wait there for our Tram, Tram 13/Palettes, which should bring us to university, when suddenly a middle.aged man(clearly drunk, he had a bottle of wine in his hands) waves from the other side of the road... What he said, now in translation: "hey hey cuties... I know you (points at me... *aaah*), I called you yesterday (very confused exchange of glances at our part)... I know you too (points at M., a friend of mine; we are starting to panic, M. asks me, if I really don't know the guy... me NO, where from?!?!?!) girls, you are in the yellow pages!"
THANK GOD the tram arrived 10 secs later and we fled... Panic & Shock!! ^^
aaaaand, BTW, the tram in Geneva is REALLY dangerous... they don't have a light sensor... getting sandwiched in the doorway 2-3x a week is usual... whatever^^
But it is sooo awesome here... and very very slowly, the regualar students melt out of their frenchspeaking ice, and when they see us, they come over, ask " ERASMUS?" and start to talk in English or German, it is sooo AWESOMEEE :))
