Studying

 My whole yesterday was a lie! The whole day I believed it was Sunday! Bummer. If I knew it was Friday I would’ve gone to an Apple store and I would’ve bought myself new earphones… I might check them today, since today is Saturday not whatever I would’ve thought it would be.

Apart from this hiccup the whole day was pretty organized. I got up before 0900, then I wrote a blogpost, and studied, and studied, and studied. I must study because I’m having my first exam on Monday! That’s pretty close! Although all the lectures I had this semester were similar to the ones I had back in Hungary, for instance I had class about Russia back home, and I had a similar class here as well. This could result two options. Option A) is that I’ve already heard these classes, I’ve already studied these things which should mean I will easily pass the exam. The other option; option B) is that I’ve already heard these classes, I’ve already studied these things which I’ve already forgotten, and instead of passing the exam I’m looking forward for an epic fail. I really hope option A) is the way things going to go. Especially because we had so many classes — each class was two and half hours long — which means my professors had plenty time to teach us huge amounts of things. Which is an issue. And the worst thing was that all these classes were after 1600 which meant I was way past my potential for the day. Which is not optimal for neither writing notes nor for paying a proper attention.

After we were sick and tried of studying we went for a walk. And yes, this time I’m writing in plural, because Sari has also decided to join me! We walked to the Palace of Culture and Sciences, then we did my usual Rondo ONZ and Rondo Dasinskiego loop. It was pretty cold, and really windy, however it was awesome to be outside for a bit. Especially because when we eventually got home I had to continue studying. Which hurt a bit. I studied for a few hours before dinner. Or actually before I had to go to the shop for some accessories for dinner. Sari bought some chicken nuggets earlier yesterday, but we didn’t had any side dish except some rice that needs 40 minutes of cooking(!) so we decided to do tortillas instead. However we didn’t have salad and onion, so I had to hit the nearest grocery store to buy some. At this point we didn’t know we only had two tortillas left… We bought a 12 piece package I don’t know where the other tortillas went… Although I only went to buy some tortillas I also bought some hummus for the upcoming dinners. I think it’s been over a month since I ate actually meat with bread. Which is probably a good thing for the environment. I hope at least.

I think today’s blog ends here, I hope you had a much more action packed day,

Take care,

Almos

The actual first day at the University of Warsaw

  Soo, I know I already wrote a blog with this title, but that day (the day before yesterday?) I only had an online class which does not qualify as a normal in-person class! It simply does not. My first class was an online class, at 4pm – which is always fun – after it was my second class that was at the university! What a relief to have a class where I can see other people, and the lecturer doesn’t have terrible audio! What was not that good about it is it was freaking hard! I wasn’t expecting a Polish language class to be easy but wow! It is the next level of randomly placed letters in a word. And the fact that the class starts at 6.30pm does not help us. It seems like usually we are allowed to miss two classes, which is less – by one – than we can in Pécs, but here at the language course we have two classes per week and also two opportunities to miss class which honesty sucks… I do want to learn a Slavic language to be able to communicate in the Balkan, or catch some word when my

Let's pretend this is day one(?)

  Today we just took the time to really concentrate on ourselves. In the morning we slept late, then I did my little yoga with Bohobeautiful, after that we started cooking lunch and dinner yada-yada-yada. We did participate in an online webinar about the library in Warsaw. To be completely honest I am not big of a fan of libraries. Not like I wouldn’t like to read, but somehow every time I went to the library back at home, I could tell based on people’s look that they knew I was studying sports and therefore I did not belong to a library. Of course, Sara was paying attention she studies at the faculty of Humanities, “her type’s” natural habitat is the library. While we were listening to the presentation, I had the time to think. And I realized a rather strange thing. Yesterday while we were talking with Ola, we were Americans ! I mean me and Sara… Okay, let me explain. So, every time I hear some English-speaking dude walking down the street talking on the phone or with someone, I

Last Day in Warsaw

  Our last day in Warsaw… When we got up the whole apartment was basically completely empty. Nothing was left, but a few backpacks, the food in the fridge, and the clothes we were about to put on. It was really sad. To start the morning exciting, and cheer ourselves up a bit we started our day in Costa Café or the Nero café — I honestly have no idea — where instead of coffee we drank chai latte. Sari did made me chai latte before, but since we don’t have either a printer nor the balls to print money we used cheep coffee and cheep chai thingy, which meant I was almost drinking something completely different. I absolutely loved the chai latte they gave me, so did Sari. Bummer, I wish I knew about this earlier. After our coffee break we packed everything and headed for the last shopping, we bought the little things that were absolutely needed for our successful trip home: bread, doughnuts, and the missing kinda beers. It was a successful trip. Then we drove home, prepared our meals for th
