Where is spring? It was so warm last week, but then the weekend was cold and it hasn't warmed up. I don't like having to wear my coat when it's supposed to be spring.
Other than the cold weather, everything is still great! I started class last Tuesday, but we're on Easter break right now so I don't have class again until this Tuesday. But everything was closed yesterday, and everything will be closed on Monday since it's considered a holiday too.
My Intensivkurs is a little boring right now, but I'm hoping it will pick up and be a little more difficult as semester goes on. The teacher isn't going to let me transfer out, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed. I love my theater class! There are only five students, all girls, and the teacher is awesome! Too bad it only meets once a week. I haven't had Phonetics yet, because it only meets on Fridays.
On Good Friday (so yesterday), it's against the law to sing, dance, or play loud music in public. Weird, right? I'm not exactly sure why, but maybe it's because people are supposed to be spending time with their families. So there's a fun fact of the day about Germany.
We were supposed to get our Studentenausweis (student ID card) in the mail earlier this month, but mine has still not arrived. I know I'm not the only one who hasn't received it, because a group of us went to go ask about it. All we were told was that it's on the way and should be here any day now. Once I have that, I can travel anywhere in Nordrhein-Westfalen for free. So needless to say, hurry up Studentenausweis!
Not really much else to say right now. It's been kind of an odd week, but hopefully once classes start up normally (without four-day weekends and whatnot), everything will settle into a routine like it did last month with the Orientation course.
Tschüss!
