University Freshers Week!

Hello Hello!

... ZzzzzzZZzz ... AH! SORRY!
I still might be a little sleepy, hehe.

Monday my university life finally begun! YAY!
Well.. it's soooo different from what I thought it would be. Normally I'm a person who needs lots of time to get to know with people. And even after that "lots of time" I might be maybe just in contact with 2 or 3 people. Not because I'm unfriendly or something but I was my whole life surrounded by many arrogant or egoistic people. Just maybe that 2 or 3 were REALLY nice and good to talk to.

But that suddenly changed. Already on the first day I got into contact with some really nice people from my degree programme. The first day of my 'Freshers Week' was kinda boring because it was just full of speeches from important people of the university and at the end there was a free visit at the cinema. I skipped the cinema because I didn't felt that well on that day.
But yesterday was SUPER funny. First there was a City Ralley around the town. We saw so many beautiful buildings!!! And also: People from all degree programmes and faculties were mixed together. So I got to know a LOT of people sudddenly from all kind of degree programmes. After the City Ralley there was a BBQ Party at the campus. And it was SO MUCH FUN!!!! I met so many interesting people - also from all over the world! Not everyone was super nice. I would lie if I would say so but the most of them!

Me, my flatmates and a girl I invited to stay over at our house (because her train was leaving really early) were the last ones to leave the party. We missed the last bus so we had to walk around 30 - 40 minutes to our home but it was so fun!! On our way we also met again some students who were very nice. Of course everyone drunk a lot of alcohol but nobody was super drunk or doing embarrassing stuff. Just some of the students but they left the party anyway very early. Still it was possible to have fun, great conversations and a nice time. And I really had some of the best conversations in my life with some people!

Today I will skip one part of the Freshers Week. It's Sports Day and after that a students party at a town called 'Moers'. But today I have Japanese lesson and I really don't want to miss it. Anyway, the people who made the biggest impression on me yesterday won't go today also to that party so I think it's not a big deal that I can't go.

But also today I maybe need to save my energy. Tomorrow is a Campus Ralley and after that Barhopping. Well.. Barhopping means that we are going to visit lots of bars in Kleve all together. After the Barhopping 4 girls already asked me to stay later over at my/our place because they would miss their train.

Oh - I should say about my flatmates... the first impression was really super wrong. They are all SUPER NICE! Also one flatmate said.. we all have different ages and different personalities but still we fit perfectly together in our big house so we can have lot of fun together. And I think he was totally right. We all decided yesterday that we don't want to have a 'partnershp of convenience' or something like that but we want to be more friends. Maybe not the best friends in our life of course but we want to do stuff together sometimes and have a great time also together while our university days.

I hope I didn't miss anything. I am going to stop the entry here and give you some small pictures of the evening yesterday. I already posted the pictures on facebook I think but I will also insert them here.

I hope you kinda enjoyed that entry. By the way.. when you are also in university .. how was/is your Freshers Week? I would really love to hear more stories about that!! Hehe.

Anyway I will go and prepare myself now. Have a wonderful day!
