The first weekend in our new accommodation started early. At 9 a.m. Jenny and I made German pancakes and porridge with frost fruits. It was the first time I’ve ever made porridge *haha*. „„You see but you do not observe. The distinction is clear.““ weiterlesen

„No one can deny the excitement of visiting another world.“

(quote from Bernard M Oliver.)

2nd of May in 2018:

Work is going well. But today I have to leave my job earlier because we got a visit from Mr Bavar, who is our Afib-coordinator and the instructor of ‚Freie Universität Berlin‘, for a small chat with a cup of tea, coffee or hot chocolate. „„No one can deny the excitement of visiting another world.““ weiterlesen

(quote from Henry James)

22nd of April in 2018:

Sunday is usually for having a good night’s rest. I get up at half-past nine, because of my alarm. Today I intended to visit Ulster Museum, which locates next to the Botanic Gardens, at eleven a.m. with Dome, Son, Phi, Jenny and Giuliano.

„If you want to escape, you have to defeat the king.“

(quote from Son, one of my afib classmates)

13th of April in 2018:

Foreword

By the way, Happy Birthday Dome, I wish you all the best, and please stay the way you are.

Food and the Preacher

Today the 2nd part of my birthday party started early compared to my usual Saturdays since I’ve been here. I had to get up to meet Son and Giang at the Asia supermarket because we need to buy some groceries for today’s planned lunch/dinner. They had a lot in their minds. Of course, I didn’t have to suffer alone that’s why I took Phi with me. He is also a late riser like me.

The Asia market isn’t far away from my accommodation. It was refreshing to go for a walk in the morning. The shop is a vast hall, where one side, they store the products in large amounts, and on the other side of the building, they sell the products there. I helped them with finding the needed ingredients. Sometimes it was confusing because to have five different sorts of wheat noodles. Or some staff members don’t understand what we wanted to buy. „Food and the Preacher“ weiterlesen
