So, trying to make this blog a little bit more active still...

I'm torn over whether to start looking more seriously for another place to live here in HD. I'm fairly content here, because even though it's a bit of a prison, the people are all really nice so it's pretty sociable. However I am also aware that contentment is not always a good enough reason to stay in one place, and I feel like while I am in Germany I want to experience as much as possible so maybe it is time to move on. However, unlike in England there doesn't seem to be a really big market for private student acommodation and there isn't really enough University acommodation to go round so it could be hard finding somewhere. A lot of the German students I know live quite a way away from Heidelberg, in one of the surrounding towns, which I think would be fine if I was here for a while and knew the area etc, but isn't really so practical for the here and now. SO whatever, we will see - it wouldn't be the end of the world staying here, it would just be nice to live somewhere with a proper kitchen and a shower you didn't have to keep pressing the button on like in a swimming pool!!

The snow has mostly melted now, so it's time to get back on my bike again (literally) I think.. good old lil hercules :)

Okay, so, happy 2010 - one resolution I have made is to update this blog more, because it's sort of meant to be about day to day life in Germany and what it's like and to achieve that I need to start actually writing in this day to day.

I'm back at home in England at the moment, and will return to Germany on monday. The christmas period has really flown by - probably due in no small part to the fact that we didn't actually get back to England until very late on the 23rd of December. Those Germans sure do like to leave things til the last minute! Anyway that probably contributed to the fact that I made an educated decision to miss my first day of lectures and fly back next monday, which gives me an extra weekend to sort things out here, pack etc etc etc.

Just a short post to get the ball rolling anyhow, but here is a video I thought people might find amusing, I sure as hell did - and it's proper proper funky music as well!
