T-Minus 20 Days

... and there's still so much to do.


Since Saturday is my last day of work, my life is slowly shifting to revolve around Fulbright preparation.


On my weekend to do list:
1. Send at least 15 emails to potential WGs (Wohngemeinschaften, where a few people get together and rent an apartment to cut down on costs). I started to contact WGs in June, but no one wanted to wait three months for a potential apartment-mate. Don't worry-- I'm living with a teacher from my Gymnasium for the first week.


2. Do a trial run of packing and see how many wintery things my mom needs to send to me. Crossing my fingers that everything will fit!


3. Buy a new jacket. I am not taking my hideous light blue one to Berlin.


4. Finish job application for next year. It's due in 8 days, and I still have to write the letter of intent and some blurbs about my work history and extracurriculars.


5. Apply for a credit card. Yep, I survived 5 years of undergrad without a CC.


6. Clean my room. Contrary to what most people think, I am a slob. The good news is that I found $10 this morning while going through my high school stuff!


7. Work on my cooking skills. I have not burned soup lately, but my latest Moroccan stew was disappointing.
