Today was a beautiful, 25 degree day in Berlin. I rode my bike to school and back and have noticed that my winter training was effective: normally It takes me 20 minutes to get to the uni (mainly downhill) and 40 minutes back home (up, up, uphill...)
But, today, after 3 and a half months of indoor training, I made the way back in 30 minutes instead of 40! And it felt a lot easier, too. So my 50 minutes of cardio today were spent in the sun, instead of having to cram myself into a crowded tram.
What can a girl possibly want more?

Sunny day!
It was 23 degrees today in Berlin! We had a barbecue and I got a little sunburn :(
But I wasn't lazy, oh no, I did 60:00 minutes of cardio + strength training!
tomorrow the summer semester starts at the uni...
Have a nice week!

Connections
Well, today my cardio was only 30 minutes... but at least I did exercise!
So, my question to you today: When relationships break down, i.e. you have a friendship that just fizzles out. Or an affair that just finishes kinda by itself. Is there a reason for it? Is it meant to be that you don't have contact anymore to this person? If you happen to stumble upon a person with whom communication has broken down, should you contact them? Or is it better to just let things be?
Somehow I think that the universe tells you what you're supposed to do, and if you stumble upon the person... let's just say I don't believe in coincidences...
What about you?

Happy Easter
I wish you LOTS OF CHOCOLATE!
The Easter Bunny came this morning, and as a result I did 63:00 Minutes of cardio...
I'm so addicted to chocolate, I prefer torturing myself longer on a machine than not eating any.
sigh.

Not dead yet
Where do I start? Hmm, let's just say I am overwehelmed a bit by my real life.. In a good and a bad way. I'm actually on "vacation" (semester break) since end of february, but then I had 4 exams to write, 2 papers and one essay. My last paper has to be handed in tomorrow and I have written 2 pages out of 12. Yay! I'm kinda pulling out my hair, here, people!
Other than that I'm also working at the uni and will be giving my first french class on april 26th, to a group of about 20 students. I think I'm going to be a good teacher. I've been dreaming of being the boss in the classroom since my childhood and now it's finally becoming reality.
March in Berlin is kinda depressing, cause all my friends go "home" for the holidays and it kinda pisses me off, but at the same time maybe I'm just jealous cause my family is too far away for me to visit during the holidays. Plus, I have to work anyways and many of my friends don't have to work. Can you say "daddy's girl"? Whatever.
A year ago, my dad was in Berlin with me and I have to say I do miss him.
My bf is in Cologne, he has a job interview on tuesday. He'll be finished with his masters in the next months and up til now, it looks like the job in Cologne would be the best opportunity. However, it might mean that he would start in the next weeks while writing his thesis, which means he would live in Cologne two weeks a month. bleh.
It would also mean that I would move to Cologne eventually, after my studies. I don't want to spend the rest of my life in Berlin, anyways, but it kind of scares me, becuase I feel like I'm just getting the hang of it ( the uni just renewed my contract for 12 months) financially, my social life is good, the relationship with my bf is actually wonderful, and now the whole thing has to change again. it's really scary.
All around me, many people are living difficult situations right now, and all I want to say is life is the hardest teacher, cause it gives you tests before you get the lesson. I don't remember who said that, but it's a quote...
