Every Thursday mirrors a typical day of my life. I get up at 7 a.m. and pretend
to be a morning person which is impossible. So the first thing I do is drinking
some coffee and waiting until the caffeine awakes my body. Now I am able to
take a shower without constantly fearing to fall asleep again. The warm water gives
my body enough energy so that I am finally ready to go study at the ITAT. Actually,
I love being there even on a Thursday where classes start at 8:15 a.m. and
finish at 16:45 p.m. My fellow students are just amazing. Seeing the I-want-sleep-look
drawn into their faces always makes me laugh. When I come home in the evening I
wonder what delicious meal I could possibly cook with literally nothing. That
is when my roommate says: “Bought us something to eat!” I cannot help but smile.
Sometimes we open a bottle of white wine (after some years you even like the
cheap ones) and enjoy watching a good movie. I ignore the inner voice of mine
telling me to do my homework and think: “Once in a while you have to relax even
if that means studying hard on the next day.” That is fine with me because life
is too short to forget about having fun!
