Finished the LP course

[Jannes]

I thought I could get some time for university work I am just busy with reflecting and booking. 

For me time in the train is mostly productive, especially if the train drives right to the destination.

Just got to the hostel. Its so exciting. There is a certain warmness to people here as well. Had to pay extra for castle and keys but thats a first time mistake. I am packing my things and will search for the table tennis spot. 

Gotta turn of my Laptop. I dont even have social media and yet my first thought is that I should capture the magic here instead of inhaling it. 

Lets live a little now.

Just checked out and hanging at the chill area now. 

So the hostel is nice. I came back at 3pm yesterday though, open my bin and some guy histerically was like "NO SOUND, NO SOUND, DEDEDEDEDE GOOD NIGHT". It seemed like he had mental illness. Sorry for the invonvenience but MY TOOTHBRUSH WAS LOCKED AWAY.  I am terrible. 

I slept terribly though, the pillow was way to big and generally I cant relax at other places fast. Maybe thats something you can train. But other then that the people are chill, you get warm shower and you get what you pay for. 

There are lots to optimize as well, like bringing the right snacks. 

..

The socializing part went bad though. Found the spot after some search and it seems like a very different culture, more agressive and stuff. Most guys at the table tennis spot are older and in the chill area I didnt approach anyone because it were all groups intensely talking to each other and I took some rounds. Three girls sat next to me at the very beginning asking if you have to bring your own table tennis bat. It started good small talk immediately but I played one or two rounds and the girls were immediately bombarbed from all angles. Comparing that to the amount of leeway I get in my small city is insane, there are more chances here but the meta is more brutal as well. No wonder some people with a bit of game dominate at my social spots. So when I sat next to the one girl after two rounds she just farted in my direction. Well I cant be sure be she was leaning over to the other side with a nice relaxed posture to get some gas out. Its been some time since I ever smelled a fart in public at all. 

Cant help but psychoanalyze it. I had such an easy opportunity at the beginning and took it so naturally, maybe it was a gesture of "hey, wake up to Berlin things are nasty out here." Or people hide less there.

You never have true privacy though. Not sure how much I need this. 

Just wanted to complain but the guy who just sat on the same table as me (even though there are plenty of free ones, my setup is just cool) just offered me chicken. If I werent vegetarian damnit. But I very much appreciate it regardless.

I feel pretty great. Especially in the end this evening I felt like I un-lulled myself. I felt in my power. I only have my seminar next wednesday and then only seminars on monday! So I can stay in Berlin most of the time and make insane social progress. I only need to balance that with my RV practice. 

I also didnt do my practice today, but thats okay, I did pre work for one day. 

I ran around like a bit of a zombie today but I saw so much. And the confident no-bullshit attitude was also super cool.

Wrote a girl I met about a year ago and had once pretty intimate (not sex) encounter with and I had mixed emotions about it, it was pretty intense so it was a bit much. But it opened the opportunity for a place to sleep and a friend to chill with which would be wonderful.

She wrote back actually saying that its nice to hear from me, asking how I am and that she is unfortunately not in Berlin this weekend. Idk what to make out of it, this can become something cool or not. I dont even really know how she looks like, its been so long. 

Thats one spot to stay though. Have another friend as well. And well the hostel of course which is a reliable backup.

About the old theatre club, I am starting to feel more what I already knew many months ago which is that specific things happened in important moments which massively shaped and formed my experience in the club. I love most of the people there, I love theatre and I hate to have just left like that but some things were just too much. 

[Jannes]

I have to say, even though its only been 2 days, I was surprisingly happy to get back into my apartment. Home sweet home. True privacy. 

Now that I got and already 1.5 hours have past I get bored of it though, would switch to the hostel back again probably. 

[Jannes]

I was contemplating what was missing about why I wasnt making social progress and I guess I found a key? 

[Jannes]

Oh! And cruicially I got socializing done without medication!

Maybe for RV now hmm..

[Jannes]

Need sleep.
