Day 34


Today was a lazy, but good day. When I came home last night I found out that Christoph had already left to go back home so I slept the entire night with the window open (nice and chilly)! When I woke up I had a pickle of a time trying to figure out what time it actually was. I was trying to figure out whether I was supposed to be adding or subtracting an hour from the time. Eventually I just went back to sleep. When I woke up for real I checked Facebook and read that Austria won't have its daylight-savings time for about 3 weeks. I decided to take a shower and have a slow morning.

I looked up movies in German on Youtube and eventually found The Lion, The Witch, & The Wardrobe on there in German. I watched that and listened to the sounds from the street outside. When my movie was done I switched to German music on Spotify and cleaned up the room a little.

For lunch I decided to make some gourmet spaghetti. I sliced up an onion, a few potatoes, a few mushrooms, and a red pepper that had to go soon and sautéed them in some olive oil. Since I only have a pan right now I emptied the veggies into a spare bowl and put water in the pan to boil for my spaghetti. However, while the spaghetti was cooking, I ate the veggies. So, once the noodles were done I put a a little pesto on them instead.

I went back to my room and did some homework. Kelsey called via Skype and we talked for over an hour. At one point we were laughing so hard that we both were tearing up. It felt good to be that kind of happy again. It's the same feeling of waking up to a perfect day after a good sleep; it's just so purifying. 

I decided to work on my blog again, since I was a few days behind. Ally and I chatted via Viber and talked about how she was starting to notice how close Easter was getting on her calendar. She was also told me about how she had worked with the Spring Break groups last week, how cold it was, and how she was grateful that she would be working at the office this week. We hung up and I called Mother via FaceTime. We talked for about 10 minutes then I got back to work on my blog with the help of my German playlist.

I finished just after midnight and then went to bed.

  1. I love your gourmet spaghetti story. I was thinking that one can adapt to less i.e. one pan until I read on about the prematurely consumed vegetables. I wonder if anyone will give you a pan for your birthday?
