I just heard on the radio that the German government is thinking of reducing the number of holidays. Bad economic situation and stuff.
The holiday they want to get rid of is our National Holiday!!!
I don'T believe it! I don't think they'll get through with it anyway, but that a German government is actually thinking about it is bad enough.
Just imagine the Americans getting rid of Fourth of July, or the French of - what it is, June 4th, I think.
Why not get rid of a Christian holiday instead? Most people don't go to church anyway.
I'm behaving as if this was my last day on this planet. Silly me.
I am going to be back here next weekend. I actually didn't really plan it that way, but the choir has a big concert next Saturday, and Andreas (the choir master) asked me to be there if I could possibly make it. He needs every soprano available. And yeah, I am a pretty good singer.
So I'm going to leave for home on Friday as soon as possible, and hopefully make it to the rehearsal on Friday night. A bit unlikely, as Friday traffic on the roads I need to take will be pretty bad. But there's another rehearsal on Saturday morning.
So I need to pack for only a week.
But still, there is the spectre of moving out looming on the horizon. I walk around my room and think about what books and furniture I want to take with me. Pretty much everything except my bed. (Because it is a loft bed - looks pretty much like this one - and while it's practical for a teenager it isn't something I'd want as an adult.) And of course I will take Billy. Actually, all five Billys I have. (For those non-IKEA people out there, Billy is the name of a bookshelf. See here. I love them.)
For next week, I need clothes and a sleeping bag for staying at the place my brother found, and enough stuff to survive that one week. Not too bad. And I also decided that cleaning my room can also be done next weekend. Though that is not for practical reasons but just because I'm lazy.
My parents aren't home tonight. So I watched the beginning of An officer and gentleman for the third (fourth? fifth?) time. And I think I'll watch Labyrinth again.

I watched MTV made this afternoon. I love that show. I loved it more when they had it subtitled instead of dubbed, but it's still good. Though I fear that the German episodes they are going to make will suck. I just know they will.
Anyway, they had this guy who was something of a computer geek and wanted to have dates. And his coach actually managed. Gave him a decent haircut and some nice clothes, without actually changing his character. Which is why I like the show. It seems more real than the shows where they get you beauty surgery to make you look like Brad Pitt or whatever. (And I don't ever want to look like Brad Pitt, anyway!)

Okay, end of pointless rambling now. And writing blablabla in the cubject line brought a silly song to my mind. Ich lieb dich nicht, du liebst mich nicht. da da da... Anybody who knows this song will now plan to kill me. Go ahead.
I should probably pack stuff. But I'm not going to now, because I don't want to. So there.

EDIT: There are still no updates for Getting the hang of Thursdays, a fact that I dissaprove of.
