Second Week
All
the classes and academics began and also gave out some assignments. Most of my
homework includes German class papers and memorization, medical writing assignments
for VIBS 311, and researching about ECMO. It was not a burdensome coursework
but I believe it could be felt burdensome if the assignments or tests are
compacted with the travel schedule that I personally have. Therefore, I reflect
on myself that I should do my academics in advance to my trips.
January
26, Saturday was my birthday! Since I do not enjoy drinking a lot, I was not
thinking of going out that night without any alternative plan. But then, when I
woke up in the morning of the day, I found that my host parents have decorated
the kitchen with balloons, ribbons, and writings congratulating my birthday.
They even prepared gift and a letter written in the front “Dear Sunshine.” There
is a reason behind on why they call me sunshine. There is a saying in Deutschland
that if the children complete their given plate, there will be sunshine
tomorrow. Because I finish my plate so cleanly every time, they love to call me
as sunshine. That night, we also went out to a Korean restaurant and to watch a
German movie. Lastly, I also had cocktail together in a bar called “extra dry”
and it was the best alcohol beverage that I had in my entire life.
