adaption

Hi everyone,
inspired by Anja's update I decided to compile a little list how far my adaption efforts have brought me... while I am waiting my friends to get ready for the disco (it's only 22:00, so we still have two hours before we leave the house)
  • ... I talk about a quiet weekend when I stay home Friday OR saturday
  • ... I don't plan more than two days ahead (apart from weekend-trips)
  • ... I leave the house at midnight and catch the first metrô to come back home (that's six in the morning) without complaining
  • ... I actually posess enough handbags to match any outfit I choose (OK, to be frank, a blue one is still missing)
  • ... I invest 1 hour to get to the hairdresser (one way), only because my friend told me, he is the absolutely BEST in town (by the way: he is)
  • ... I sign the lists in class for friends who didn't make it in time (hey, they have only four hours to show up and sign in)
  • ... I don't feel guilty any more for not reading all of the 'must-read'-texts. In fact, by reading half of them I am still ahead of everyone else.
  • ... together with Giulia and Ligia, I order 'beirute' (you could compare it with Döner) at 1:00 in the morning.

Things I do not intend to change:

  • ... never challenge my green tea habit!
  • ... I actually show up in class on time, having read some of the literature
  • ... my weekly telephone chat with Anja in Rio.
