Just Be (Happy)
It’s 8:45 am, I just kissed Vik goodbye few minutes ago, he is going to work now. We had breakfast together before that, he was still yawning as he drank his coffee. I love this guy, he is always so funny. Sitting in front my desk, suddenly I feel the urge of blogging.
A bit of update about my life here. After working for one and a half months, I’ve left the company. My last day there was 6th July, ever since than I have been meeting up with friends, chatting and surfing online and traveling around with Vik. Many of my friends back home asked me why did I resign, as getting a job in Germany is not really an easy matter, especially for a foreigner like me. Well, the truth is, if they (some of my colleagues) would have treated me better, friendlier or talk less ‘bullshit’ about Asia and so on, I might stay till August. I do not want to go into the details of what happened there, but in short I can say that my time there made me felt like a Bangladeshi working in Malaysia (or even worse), if you know what I mean. But it does not mean that all Germans are bad, some of my friends here who work in McD and Burger King do have nice colleagues.
Saying farewell to the hectic work and study life, I am now back to the peaceful and serenity life of a housewife again. In fact I recognised few days ago that I appreciate my time at home more now, as compared to the time before. I’ve learned to plan my day, read books, polish up my English and German, and stay in contact with friends here. Will meet up with Farisa (from Iran) and Farid (from India) tomorrow, we want to go back to our language school and claim back our exam fees. On Saturday, Mischa, Vik and I will be going to Kassel, to visit the modern and contemporary art exhibition - Documenta. 1001 Chinese flew from China for the purpose of this exhibition, must be very ‘interesting’ I think. Then on Sunday Vik and I will drive to Munich together, will stay there for 6 days. After that I will be flying to UK to meet up with some friends, and spending the money I earned before, hehehehe… am really looking forward to this trip!
By the way, last Friday was my first wedding anniversary. Vik and I went back to Sonderborg, Denmark, the place where we registered our marriage. We spent a very nice day together, remembering all the sweet memories we shared together, from the time in Australia until now. I am really grateful to have such a nice husband, what else do I want more? Perhaps my life will be perfect if I could get a proper job here, but wait, a perfect life? Does it exist? :p
Life goes on, and I am still one of the happiest persons in the world! It is just a matter of perception, you can be one too if you want.
Hugs!
Marggie, Michelle and I at my place. We cooked curry together, hahaha…
Samantha (a Malaysian) visited me in Darmstadt, it was nice to meet up with her again.
Tim, Winnie, me and Vik at Flensburg, Winnie’s place. She invited us for lunch there and wow, she can really cook!
