Back to school - for real!

Finally. I have suffered my punishment of not being able to plan my future so now I get back on it with more enthusiasm than ever. Apartment searching online, filling forms to verify that I'll be attending in January, trying to figure out the student allowance systems... It is kind of annoying actually, as a process, to do those things but the reason why I can do it is good enough a reason to even enjoy it. It feels incredible that for months I've been staring blankly in my future which didn't seem to include anything but now I have everything to expect. And that everything will start in two months! My studies start with orientation days from 16th to 17th of January and on 20th I'll become a full-time student once again. 

I found out about this already on Friday but I needed a while to completely realise that I am going, especially since I've been distracted with other stuff. It was such a relief to find out that I got in. I was really nervous about it, I knew the day when the results would come and I was dreading the moment when I'd see a letter in a mailbox or go to the website to read the list of the accepted students. I am glad that my friend texted me in the morning saying congratulations on getting in, saving me from the nerve-wracking part.

I can't wait to find an apartment. Well, since I am moving to the capital where the rents are insane, I'll most likely get a shared apartment, we call it "a cell apartment" where there usually are about 2-4 people living there, each person has their own bedroom and the kitchen, the living room and the bathroom are shared. Not so nice, since you never know what kind of people you end up living with but that's just student life. Speaking of which, I can't wait to make new friends and to start learning French and to personally experience that famous student life. I guess I am out of practise with partying but on the other hand I've been saving my powers for the student parties, right? Oh and yeah, for studying of course.

So next up would be probably a trip to IKEA to find plates and glasses etc. cheap enough that it wouldn't matter if crazy and careless roommates smashed them. Also, I was a little too excited at the end of the summer when I packed all my kitchen stuff into boxes believing I'd be moving away and starting working. Now that I'll have only a few square meters to use I have to unpack it all and take only those things that won't break so easily and are really needed. Sounds maybe boring but I actually can't wait 'cause my inner organizer is so excited about it. 

This song isn't at all related to the theme but I just like it so much that I want to share it.
