Bye bye Nicole & Patti

Seems like this week is 'good bye week' for some many persons (ok ok people) in my life.
Hope you guys will have a happy life 'over there'... :-(

Tonight: KTV @ Patti

Hey, we just sung on our KTV/Singstar Party at Patti's place Coldplay's "Fix You" and I remembered how much I loved this song and how meaningful the lyrics are...

For those who don't know, here are the lyrics plus a youtube link. Have fun ^^

Oh and here are some other VERY good news: I got today a reply from the University of Applied Sciences in Dortmund.
I got a seat to study there International Business or Business Information Technology. Now I only have to make a decision whether I take the first or the latter...
Nonetheless it seems like my goal to study abroad in Guangzhou (hopefully) in two years has come one step closer.

When you try your best but you don't succeed
When you get what you want but not what you need
When you feel so tired but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse

When the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

And high up above or down below
When you're too in love to let it go
But if you never try then you'll never know
Just what you're worth

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

Tears stream down your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears stream down your face
And I...

Tears stream down your face
I promise you that I'll learn from my mistakes
Tears stream down your faceAnd I...

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

Some infos about the daily koteshi

Hola amigos y amigas.

Some time passed since my last post and the main reasons are the newly started Spanish (Si si, finally) and Mandarin (Chinese spoken in mainland China) language courses. Don't get me wrong, I love these new courses but I have to get used to study vocabulary again :)

Beside this of course math and physics, especially electrical engineering, exams are a tough part in my life at the moment.

Right now I wait for the completion of a 3.5GB download so I thought I could spend some time for my blog again.

OK, now some bad and some good news:

Bad things first:
I won't enter the University of applied science in Dortmund this year for really f***** up reasons. Mainly because my old school sucks.
When I left the school 5 years ago, they didn't write the 'grade point average' on my report card. I didn't notice it until I tried to apply for the University during summer vacation when they didn't accept my school certificate cause the GPA was missing. Bad luck: during summer vacation no teacher at my former school was available, cause they were sitting in Nice or Mallorca...
Yeah, what a glourious day...

But quite often every bad thing, offers a new chance.

So it came that I applied to a school in Dortmund where I want to get prepared for the time as a student at the University. This means of course hard work for maths etc.
So when I went the first day to school, I saw the building of the VHS Dortmund (school for adult education program). I knew they offer courses like "how to cook" or "photography for beginners". But I also knew they offer languages courses.
If you are into it, you can learn Arabic, Spanish, Russian, English, French and many more. But most interesting was their offerings for some Chinese language courses. Because I am a student, I get a discount and only have to pay 50€ for the course :)
I applied after some time thinking immediately and took the 'advanced' course cause I learnt some basic Chinese phrases and vocabulary by Jiaqi.

Beside the language course some other event will take place soon:

I'M GOING TO CHINA!!! :D

Yeah, seems like a dream comes true. FINALLY!!!

Now add to all of the time sucking events of the last weeks/months the ongoing planning for the China trip from 21st September till 6th October and et voila: CHAOS ;)
Well, maybe the word chaos is over-the-top. I guess the word stress seems to fit in better here.

I will check up the following locations: Guangzhou (广州), Beijing (北京) and Shanghai (上海)

I received my visa last month, and booked the flight from Duesseldorf to Guangzhou (some might know it better under the name 'Canton') via Air France, the hotels for Guangzhou and Beijing and the flight home from Shanghai back to Duesseldorf via Aeroflot.
So only things missing, are the hotel in Shanghai plus the flights Guangzhou -> Beijing and Beijing -> Shanghai.

Wow, already 2:42AM...

I better quit now.
