Awkward

Stress. It's losing your passport, spraining your ankle, preparing for two exams, taking said exams, spending lots of money to replace the lost passport in question, and not getting any sleep. But I digress...

In between all of this, I did have some fun. The Juli concert on Monday night was just what I needed! My first German concert...who better to go with than Christine? For dinner we ended up at one of the shittiest cafe's in Munich, as almost everything was closed. Thank you Germany for that.... Although I will say that our incredibly ADD waiter was worth the price of the bill. If she fixed our menus one more time until they were "just so" I think I would've killed her.

Anyway, the concert was in a small place that had more of a bar/disco type feel. After two wine spritzers I was ready to dance, and we enjoyed ourselves, despite the couple in front of us. At one point I considered throwing up on them.

After the concert Christine drove me to the Youth Hostel that I was staying at. When I stepped in I felt like I was in America. Everyone there was from one state or another, and even the receptionists were American. When I went into my room it didn't look so bad. Four other students, all from either Brazil or China, were sleeping there and they were very nice and respectful. However, I still had trouble sleeping, as the floor below us housed the youth hostel bar, where apparently everyone besides us were partying well into the night. I finally fell asleep around 3 or 4am, only to woken up at 8pm by the people in the next room, who were having the loudest sex I have ever heard. Awkward. I could have killed them for making me lose an hour of sleep.

Life abroad is entertaining.
