I'm a little confused about the order about the last few days, but something like this:
Friday I went to Tierpark with Hannah and Maria stopped by to say goodbye. I spent most of Saturday writing, resulting in this multiple-part text.
I went back to the first flat some point and had tea there again with Christian and Mitya (Sasha's friend who works for the UN in...Slovenia, Slovakia? he said both but they don't even touch, so I must have misremembered, or maybe I'm ill-informed of something important, probably both), and finally relinquished my keys, so I can no longer go sneaking around the flat. Christian and I were both a tiny bit sad at this moment - me mischievously so; I liked being a ghost.
I went over to Hannah's and Caroline stopped by and we watched Chitty Chitty Bang Bang (yes, a children's movie).
Saturday night I slept over (meaning that we went to bed at 10:30 and then talked for three hours), and Sunday morning on of Hannah's new roommates moved in, she's French. Caroline came over again to say bye, and Nina asked us to come down as well and we all said our farewells. We finished watching Pulp Fiction (one movie I've actually seen before) and then we came over to my place after which we wandered over to the flea market by the Bode Museum, which is mostly antiques. I looked a pocket watch that you had to wind up, but it was forty-five euro and I didn't think I could haggle it down to affordability from there, most things where significantly cheaper, I just happened to pick out something expensive, as usual.
Monday wasn't very productive either since all the museums are closed. I got groceries and went to Tierpark because of a day mix-up. Ben was there to do laundry. I talked a lot to Katrin (just finished her masters at Potsdam Universität to be a teacher, subjects Spanish and Poli Sci) during the day and we made couscous salad and pankäse together for lunch.
Tuesday I went to the Gemäldegalerie in the morning. Ben was supposed to possibly meet me at the East Side Gallery with his family at three, but I ended up wandering it alone, which was nice except for there was a giant cloud that decided to rain right over just that bit of the wall. When I started walking it started to rain, when I finished walking it stopped. I had my camera on me this time though.
For food I decided to explore slightly. I got off at Jannowitzbrücke, because I never had before, and followed the direction where other people seemed to be headed. There was a street with a few Asian-food places, some grocery-stores and barbershops. I got myself a crape und grün Tee, and savored it. I headed to Tierpark since Michael's goodbye dinner was soon, and we went to a Thai place on Friedrichshain. It was good to have a solid goodbye, so many people just up and left.
Yesterday I went to the Bode Museum. After that, I was supposed to meet up with Laura and try to crash a class. Module two of the Deutschkurse has started, and there are classes offered in the afternoon. I didn't meet up with Laura but tried to go to the art course anyway, partially because Hannah's new roommate from Malta was there so I knew one person. One of the three professors was the tour guide from the last module, but it was still too awkward and I left.
