Hi,
So, the rest of what I did on Saturday went kind of like this: I was supposed to go salsa dancing, but it doesn’t start until late and i reeeeeally wanted to have a shower before they turned off the hot water and i was up until 5 am that morning anyway and i didn’t want to sleep through church again, so I did not go salsa dancing. But I will next time. Promise. To clarify- a group of the Canadians go salsa dancing every so often and this is my second time declining. Woops.
Sunday: Woke up. Read Bible. Did something productive, I bet, but I can’t recall what. Went to church at the Muenster. Came home. Was supposed to go help cook at Adrienne’s at 2 for dinner at 7, but that seemed a little ridiculous to me, plus I would be brining Alicia along later anyway, so, extra hands would make up for lost time yah? Anyway. We got there at 4ish after I was chatting with people and Alicia was done practicing tuba and then we made empanadas and Sancoche (verrrrrrrrrrrry yummy Columbian soup. mmmm mmmm!!!!) and everybody came over and ate it. Delish.
Monday: Woke up thinking about many things, including the pointless class I would have to attend in a few hours. Mondays are always so busy. I’ve got 3 classes plus capoeira. Anyway, after German class, I went to go print out some things from this place at the Uni that lets you print things out, including my course transfer sheet. Then I went home. Made lunch. Went to class. Went to other class. Tried to find capoeira class. Did not. At all. I think i found something better. I was biking back into town, feeling somewhat defeated, but also okay, because it was a really pretty bikeride anyway, and i saw this sign that said “Jesus Freaks” and I wondered- does Jesus Freaks here mean the same thing as it does in Canada? And…. yes it does! I found all this contact info for a Christian young-people group in Freiburg. They have church on Thursday nights. which is perrrrrfect, as I havn’t school on Fridays! God has good ideas for me.
Then I biked back into town and met Alicia at a tram stop and we chatted and went for Ashley’s birthday dinner where conversation led me to realize that I havn’t really got any talents (please don’t say something like, but you’re really nice and love animals- thank you for the compliment and kindness, but neither of those are talents!) so I was biking home and thinking about it and decided I should try to change that. I will try. I am practicing more capoeira now and Spanish and German. I’ll be a multi-lingual capoeira-chopping master. =) I wish I had my guitar here.
