New Friends, Free Drinks, and DJ Dreams: My Dorm Adventure


Today, I woke up at 1 p.m. and made myself scrambled eggs with mozzarella and tomatoes, which turned out really great. At 3 p.m., I joined a dorm get-together for new residents to get to know each other. I made a few friends that I really clicked with. We also played a game that involved exploring the dorm, but since I knew the place pretty well, my team ended up winning.

At 7 p.m., we had a 'Welcome Party,' where I met even more people that I really liked. We had drinks together, and by 11 p.m., I got to be the DJ for a while, which was a lot of fun. I think it’s awesome that all these dorm events are completely free, thanks to the dorm’s budget, and everyone is welcome to join.

Back to Blogging: Catching Up, Studying, and a Chill Day in Vienna

Image
I haven’t been posting lately because my laptop was in for service – the display wasn’t working anymore – but now I’m back to posting daily blogs. Since my last post, I can’t say that a lot has been happening, but I did go to a Halloween party and to a Spritzerstand with some friends from back home. A good friend of mine also came to visit Vienna and stayed for four days. My parents visited as well, so I spent some time with them, visiting museums and doing some shopping. Today was a pretty uneventful day. I woke up at 1 p.m. because I couldn’t sleep well last night; not sure why. After I got up, I went to do my groceries since I was pretty hungry and my fridge was empty. I went to Lidl, as it’s one of the closest and cheapest stores around here, picked up everything I needed, and headed back to the dorm. Once I got back, I made myself some eggs with avocado – kind of a combined breakfast and lunch. After eating, I watched my series for a while and FaceTimed some friends from Munich. I...

Powering Through: A Day of Skipped Classes, Pesto Pasta, and Marketing Magic

Today I woke up at 8:30 a.m. because I had a class that started at 9:45. I was really sleepy, but I managed to arrive on time. After that class, I had another one at 11:30, but I skipped it because it's really boring and the classroom is always hot, so I preferred to look over the PowerPoint at home. On my way back to the dorm, I stopped to do some grocery shopping and then headed straight home. When I got to my room, I made myself a sandwich and went back to bed because I was exhausted. I woke up at 4 p.m. and returned to university for a class that started at 4:45, which I really enjoy. It’s about marketing, and the teacher is great—he knows how to make his presentations interesting for the students. Afterwards, I went back home and had a chat with my sister. Then, I cooked some pasta with pesto sauce for dinner, which turned out really delicious. After eating, I did the dishes and went to bed to watch my series and relax a bit.

Groceries, Negronis, and Great Company: A Cozy Day in Vienna

Image
Today, I slept in until 11 a.m., then did some cleaning around my room. At 1 p.m., I went to the university diner with my sister, where I had a Schnitzel with baked potatoes and jam, and it tasted amazing. Right after lunch, I went grocery shopping at Spar and got everything I needed. At 5 p.m., I met a guy from my university who’s also from my home country. We sat down at a terrace, had a Negroni, and talked about our lives. After a couple of hours, I talked to an old friend from high school to meet, and we had a great catch-up over drinks until 9 p.m. at a place called Sky bar Steffl When I got back to my student dorm, I was starving, so I made myself dinner—some chicken nuggets in the air fryer with French fries and ketchup on the side.
