So now that exams are over and done with, I’m resolved to post more. Mostly because the next few months are going to be fairly mental, and I would like to document it somehow, for myself and maybe for people who’d like to keep up with what I’m up to.
Anyway, to clarify, I’m coming to the end of my second year doing English and German, meaning that come September I shall be taking my intercalary year in Deutschland, speaking the Deutsch and all that jazz.
Enough of that, the here and now is far less scary! I’ve just got back from a friend’s wedding reception which was ridiculously awesome. The entertainment was provided by a Twmpath band, Twmpath being basically a Welsh barn dance. I’ve been to a few Twmpaths, or rather was pushed into it by teachers at Llangrannog – a particularly awkward hour as I recall. Thankfully, whether for the inclusion of alcohol or the fact that I’m not an awkward 13 year old anymore, tonight was far more fun. It was nice that everyone was really eager to dance, even those that were the designated drivers of the evening. I also got to wear my pretty dress which shall make a reappearance next week at my close friend’s wedding, and my first forage into the world of tit tape was successful, hurrah!
Tonight made me really aware of how these next few weeks shall be the last that I see a few people, what with people leaving or leaving by the time I get back from Germany. When I left school, I didn’t feel that sad because I knew I’d keep in contact with the people I really liked; after all, on the most part you’d all be coming back to live in the same place during the holidays. Not to mention that some of my closest friends are in my Karate class, and I knew I’d see them again. It feels a bit different this time though because everyone’s from all over the place really. Some people stick around after Uni, but not everyone. It also sucks that I won’t graduate at the same time as people I’ve been here with since the first year. I’ll just need to make sure that I make many visits to make up for it! It’s not all doom and gloom, I’ve seen people who graduated last year a fair few times, so I best be looking on the positive side innet.
Man, can’t think of anything else to write… well there is the Jiu Jitsu grading a week today, but I’ll keep that for a post by itself.
On the drive back today this song came on the radio and I remembered how much I liked it :
