Random thoughts

Well, Thursday morning I had a presentation… 10 min to talk in German, with no stop.
After that, in Mensa, another guy asked me… was not possible for you to present it it English? If you would have talked with the professor? And I replied, without any second thought, “I wanted to challenge myself”… and in the end... this is what life is about… challenges… you decide to take them or not… :)
The presentation was ok... only that the subject had also a lot of names in English and at some point my colleagues were a bit confused … (and I was talking also very fast… German mixed with English). At the end, they congratulated me because I was able to talk so fast in German, and that I don’t have to make any worries about speaking German, although it’s not my mother tongue.
But I’m not satisfied, I could have done things a little bit differently, maybe better.. I don’t know..
And what’s worse, in the end, it wasn’t because of me, but because of the colleague I had to prepare the presentation with… anyway… the moment is gone… :)
After the German class, I was going home… thinking… relaxing… and I receive a message from Maria, “what do you think about a picnic?” ... ok… hmmm
Where, when, who… etc…
In 1 hour, we were already behind the students hostels, on the grass, barbequing… it was so nice… we were 8 or 10 people, just having fun and enjoying the time…
It was very very nice :)
On Friday evening we celebrated Kyle’s birthday… he is living in the same building… (the colored one… the very colored one… :))))… but I didn’t stayed for long time… wasn’t in the mood for parties…
But this week is almost ending… and in the end, it wasn’t so bad… or… if the glass is half empty… for sure it’s also half full… always!
I will try to remember that…
