How delicious, the sun streams through the window onto my bed for an hour in the morning.... and I'm learning to appreciate it in a way I never did growing up in eternally sunny sydney. Walking home from the U-Bahn late last night, the air is so cold my breath freezes for a moment... Really missing my bicycle, which has been on it's last legs for a while, and finally died on the way up Danziger Str. a few days ago. Thinking about that sexy black bike I saw at Treptower Park the other week with Mari, it might have to be priority no. 1 now. Getting home on the U took forever and was kind of annoying. I like cycling through the night, cool velvet stars in the blackness, past Tresor and the kids spilling into the street, along Kopenicker Str and either down Adalbert for the most direct route home, or past Schlesisches Tor to pick up a baked breakfast treat from the all-night bakery there. Ended up talking for hours with Julaine over red wine and chocolate... I miss the long dinners with close friends on a Friday night in Newtown. A moment of them transplanted to Berlin is damn fine. Have to dine together over skype sometimes, and grow new ones here!
Ok so now I'm just rambling instead of finishing a grand application.
Go Bridge Girl, Go!!
