So i've been in my new place for around three months now. On the one hand it feels as if itz been forever, on the other hand i have the impression as if i moved here only the day before yesterday. Although i am a city girl at heart it struck me that i seriously had to get adjusted to those tons of ppl around me and the crazyness of living in a metropolis. Minutes seem to pass by faster here than anywhere i have lived before. Life is fast. You have to be careful to live the minutes you are alive. No matter if you're jumping on the subway early Sunday morning going to church or if you're coming home from a night out on Tuesday around midnight- there's always ppl that seem have some significant business to accomplish out there. Compared to the small town that i had to live in for the last one and half year this city is pulsing with life- starting with Burger King opposite my house. I just have to cross the three-lane-street i live at, and enter BK any time until the early morning hours, there will always be somebody to serve me. There's always some cultural event that you can join or if you want to hang out in a coffee bar to chill with a friend- anything you will find here. and yes, they have my beloved Starbucks and DD at every other corner :) When I step out of the front gate i can see the TV tower of the inner city, luv it! The city has so many pretty, meaningful places to enjoy!
God has been faithful and has been with me - He provided caring friends and welcoming colleagues, and even a school class full of cool kiddoz- they are a bunch of work, but also a bunch of joy and happiness. I'm still in the progress of finding my church here, asking and praying where i could and should fit in.
And yea, once again i became a proud aunt. once again, my niece was hundreds of miles away on the day of her birth. This kind of thing seems to be part of my life... I'm gonna see her in a couple of weeks and I CAN'T WAIT :)
Don't ask me how many times i have moved during the last ten years, don't ask me for how long i will stay here. I'm just convinced that i'm in the right place for now and that i will do my best to bring out the best of me and my time here.
