New new neeeew

I have new things!

For example, new glasses :

164828

So worth the money. My old glasses had lost the nose pads, were wonky and about three years old! I like these ones because they don’t cover my face as much but are still kinda cool. Has to be said, the selection of (affordable non-designer) glasses at Specsavers has improved IMMENSELY since I first had to get glasses.

Something else which is new:

I have my very own website now! How cool is that? My boyfriend suggested that I get one, reasoning that there isn’t much need for a schnazzy title with a name like mine. Though I wouldn’t mind one.

I’m meant to be packing right now, but I’m still taking my sweet time with that. I’m leaving on Friday, how scary is that?

What’s even scarier is that I have 20kg in which to pack my life, in order to kart it off to Dortmund. It means that I have to leave some of my shoes behind – a terrible fate indeed for us shoeaholics.

I woke up on Saturday with that horrible nervous feeling in the pit of my stomach. It comes back intermittently, but I’m trying my best not to feel too nervous about the whole thing. The language barrier is what worries me the most – I know it’ll be hard, but I don’t want it to be a case of me copping out and using English, and thus losing some valuable German practice. I’m living there to become fluent after all, I don’t want it to be a waste.

I think the next update will probably be from the airport or in Germany itself! Ooooh there’s that horrible feeling in the pit of my stomach again…
