December Northern Lights: An update on my life which you may or may not care about.

Tjena!

Hm, I haven't blogged since the summer, but I partially blame school for that. I've been so busy the past two months, and I've been spending an unhealthy amount of time in the costume shop at UBC... well, it's not actually a bad place to be, it's probably the only place on campus I enjoy being in. To update, I'm taking three language courses: German, French, and Swedish, and then there's costume construction, and a theatre production course where I get to work on actual shows - thus the spending many-an hours in the costume shop. Oh and it's been raining almost non-stop for the past week or two here. Refreshing, great for skin, but a bit excessive.
(Oh won't us Vancouverites just stop with our weather complaints?)

This December I'm going to visit my friend Christiane in Berlin, and Daniel who's in Reykjavik, learning Icelandic. I've never been to either of these places so it's obviously very exciting for me!! I am becoming quite interested in what Iceland will be like, people tell me there are magnificent geysers, Daniel tells me about caves, and I'm wondering if I will get to see any Northern Lights! What a breathtaking winter that would be!

I know I will not want to leave Berlin once I get there... there's just so much I'd like to see, but I'm only going to be there for about four days. That's ok though, I'm thinking about living there next fall and do some language assisting for English, and then try to find a really concentrated design school, and I want to check out the film and theatre industry there, and improve my German of course. If only the grammar would make sense to me.. like cheese in macaroni and cheese.

Yes, I'm somewhat trying to plan out my life.

And this post isn't really opinionated, but more self-indulgent.

I'll try to be more interesting in the next one.
