Victory is mine!

Well, at least a small one:
The groundwork for my permanent residency permit has been laid. thanks to my awesome boss. It's not signed or sealed yet, but she's agreed to help me out in a major way. So yeah. Thank heavens for that. It's a huge load off my mind and leaves me with more energy to deal with the rest of my insane to do list (uni application, wedding whatever and the basic chaos of my day-to-day).

My whole positivity mission isn't really working out, but I'm trying. I'm looking forward to spending some time resting and recharging this summer, as well as making major headway on the aforementioned epic lists.

Next week I'll be out in the Brandenburger countryside with a group of 6 monkeys from work and said awesome boss. It should be a pretty relaxed time, if last year was any indication.

Tomorrow's another obscure protestant holiday here (the Ascension) and the Monday after we come back is another one (Whit Monday), so I'm looking forward to some fun walks through Berlin in the sunshine with the Schatz. Speaking of whom, his final exams start on Friday. Please do wish him luck.

So, I hope y'all enjoyed your Memorial Day. I'll drink a cold one for you tomorrow.


Keep fighting.
