Ich will gehen, wo die Welt eine Scheibe ist.....

So hello my internet fellows i have returned after a brief and frankly brutal hiatus i have returned once again!!!!! Here what happened. Apparently somehow the harddrive on my laptop became physically damaged. I have no idea how but it happened. Which means in order to fix my lovely laptop the harddrive needed to be replaced. And that resulted in me losing everything i had on it. So i'm kinda back to square one with my programs, videos, and some music. On the up side the guys at the Apple Store in Munich fixed it all and replaced my drive free of charge because i've got the protection plan. Schweet. It has not been a fun ordeal getting my laptop back in its proper working order but i guess if it had to happen better it happen now than in the future when i really need it. I got me a nice new pair of computer speakers yesterday at the Apple store to celebrate my victory over the little people. Nice, new, and really loud Bose speakers are now mine to annoy all of my neighbors with. My room is shaping up quite nicely also. Its gets more homey everyday. Recently i purchased a bunch of new bedding and pillows so my bed is now pretty sleep inducing. Save for the matress which is still a literal pain in my ass and general back. But i got me some sweet as string lights from Ikea which make my room look the definition of pimpin. The fitness centre on campus is now open to my usage. I've been trying to get back into going everyday but its pretty difficult considering their hours are terrible and their equipment is not up to snuff with what im used to. Also i pretty much just slacked off the entire month of September from the gym so i got the lazy factor coming in as well. Plus when the weather is bad, its a long walk from my appartment. Speaking of the weather i can say yesterday was the first snow for me here. On the way back from Munich with my laptop it was snowing right around Nuremburg. I think thats pretty neat. I can't remember the last time i saw snow in October. According to my friends it didnt snow up in Würzburg yesterday, but i think it can't be too far away. Lately its been cold as all hell here. My winter jacket is close to being on full duty. I do enjoy the colder weather though, just as long as its not raining. Cold rain is the worst. Which is what the weather today is. This week is the last week before classes start. Tuesday i have to go down to the Zfs to register for the German language classes i plan on taking this semester. Recently i had my whole schedule thrown into the proverbial fan. Had everything all picked out and was ready to rock and roll. I was gonna take 3 DaF classes (Deutsch als Fremdsprache) but two of the three i picked were Oberstufe level (like upper level). I figured that wouldnt be a problem because as foreigns we're allowed to take regular university classes so what would the difference be. But i emailed the Zfs just to be sure. And sure enough they said that i couldnt take those classes because i had only completed the Aufbau Kurs and needed to have completed the Mittlstufe Kurs to take what i wanted. And they reccomend that one should take all four of the Mittlestufe level classes that are offered. Which i think i am probably gonna do. Gotta go figure that out after i post this. But in conclusion. Laptop is fixed, weather is cold, German is fun to speak/read/learn, loud music is good music, new Rammstein album rocks, and Life is good.
