First day
I had my first day of my new study today, Information and Communication Sciences (a study that has to do with what the name implies, but a large part of it is a modern foreign language, Spanish, French, German or English-- I chose the last). I was quite nervous, seeing I have to start all over again. Also, it still feels very weird not being part of the Psychology faculty anymore. After two years, it really felt as if I was part of that faculty, even though the study itself wasn't really my thing.
I've had a wonderful time the past two years with Psychology, all due to the friends I have there. In the first year, I had so much fun with Sascha, Dagmar, Renate and to a lesser extent Zdena-- the 2nd year I had a lot of fun with Renate (Sascha, Dagmar and Zdena stopped), Mascha, Henriƫtte and Malou. There were a lot of other nice people too, but I can't name all of you.
Anyway, this first day went pretty fine. I had a sort of introductory course first; all easy stuff that I already knew from the past two years. After that, I had my first real course: English Grammar! Woohoo! I'm finally learning Real English! My English might look pretty decent, it's still all street knowledge. The English I studied at high school added little to no extra value to my language skills.
Oh, and there's a really cute looking girl in my class! :).

4:31 PM, byHere's some regional slang I've picked up in my time living in various parts of the US:
"Howdy" is not a way to say hi. It means "How do you do?".
"Wicked Awesome" Popular here in New England. Something isn't just awesome, it's really wicked awesome.
"Bless her/his little heart". This is used in the south. It's a very polite way of saying "Go to hell, or fuck off".
"Finer than frog's hair" I heard this a few times in North Carolina. Weird.
