Queing, German Bureaucracy und Bier

It has to be said that there are too many forms to fill in and too many things to que for. I have spent nearly 6 hours in 2 days queing around waiting for stuff with about 200 other disorientated people. Today was enrolment at the University so again back to the akademisches Kunstmusuem to sit around and be spoken to about things which have already been done by everyone. Also they need to invest in some microphone’s as projection to the back of the room was terrible – anyways enough of this rant about the surprisingly lacking organisational skills.

Am now an official student of the Rheinische Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität Bonn. Woop dee doo! Am among scholars such as Karl Marx, Prince Albert and Germany’s first post war chancellor Konrad Adenauer there is now a new one – Stephanie Luise Lambert. WUNDERBAR

Have been meeting lots of people which is just awesome and they are from all over the place. Austria, Hungary, Finland, France, Albania, Czech Republic and Turkey are to name a few. There are also a few Spaniards walking around too but they just stand together and witter on and on they talk like this writing wilbevfbdfvbkenvfbkEBVNKAEJBRVFGKEJBV.Kahjb vj\HBVKEB....it doesn’t seem to make sense but you know that what they are talking about is great and important to them.

So last night went on a bit of a pub crawl which was great. I tried about 6 different German beers. It got to the point were I actually had to say, “STOP please I can’t drink any more.” I really am a poor excuse for a student. The night bus home was also an event. Luckily I was with my newly acquired hot neighbour, ‘Maria’ and the two of us were trying to see were our street was....easier done in broad day light rather than 3am when we stumbled home.

The next piece of bad news was we were supposed to be up at 8am to get into Uni fresh and early but I slept through my alarm and was a little worse for wear this morning so didn’t go. They didn’t tell us that going to this meeting this morning was important – so oh well it got rescheduled as no one came!!Oh well it will be alright in the end.

Also there is a local cat who I think gets fed by lots of people so he is a proper fatty – reminds me alot of Stella Bella Boodles who also has a big belly. But it is lovely to come home and have the cat follow you to the door he doesn’t miaow so I don’t think he sprechen’s Deutsch.

Anyways must go einkaufen. Missing everyone
