I've been alone this weekend. My boyfriend had to go home to hand in his thesis, return books to the library and see his parents and friends.
It was ok mainly. I missed him, but it was definitely bearable. He's already in the coach now , but he won't arrive until 9 tomorrow morning.
I did some reading on an overdue term paper, watched Pretty Little Liars
, watched football with friends, had my best friend over for breakfast yesterday, went to the gym this morning and I'm going to make a cheesecake later today. I <3 baking. I also bought one of those wedding magazines, even though we're not getting married for another 2,5 years.
But I like looking at wedding dresses and there was a 55 tips etiquette manual feature. They had a bit about speeches and it got me thinking... an interntional, bi-lingual wedding is a huge challenge in itself.
We're going to have the ceremony 'subtitled'. We're going to translate the sermon and make a something like a pp presentation, so that the people who don't speak Polish can follow.
I hadn't thought about speeches, though. I guess there are going to be some. At least from my boyfriend's family. Mine is sort of shy and quiet. Maybe we could have everyone who plans on giving a speech send it to one of the witnesses, so they can translate, but I don't know how realistic that is and whether it's asking too much of them. I would hate for people not to know what's being said, though.
It's not really pressing or anything, obviously, but I feel like a lot of things are going to turn out tricky, so thinking ahead can't hurt.
I got offcially accepted at the University of Warsaw, which is good... I'm frustrated with my classes this semester. In half of my classes there are only 3 or 4 people - me and some Polish Erasmus students (in the other classes there are mainly Russian majors). It's nice, but I don't feel like I'm actually learning anything. We don't really have class, we talk about shit like how outrageous rent is around here or share anecdotes. Like I said, it's nice, but I don't go to class for nice. If classes are nice, it's a nice extra, but I go there to learn something. I can have nice with my friends, after classes or at home with my boyfriend. I don't need to go to class for nice. There's nothing I can do about it. It's just the way it is and I knew about it when I decided to stay here for my Master's. I just wish it was different. *sigh*
Maybe I should take the initiative and write on my paper instead of complaining that I'm not learning anything...
...or watch another episode of PLL.
And I miss my SO like crazy when one of us is gone for even a short period of time. When I had to make border runs to Nicaragua for just one night I was like *tears* miss my SO!
And he's back (but he had to go to class almost straight away) <3
