Alert: Travel Bug Infection

I'm having extremeeeeely itchy feet.

It's a mistake to put the least important exam at the end of an exam phase. It's even more of a mistake to put the heaviest one right before it. I finished my Pharmacy exam on Friday, and now I have absolutely no movitation left to study for my last test - Radiology.

Instead of studying, I've been rummaging in my HDD for some pictures and came across old travel pics. And now I'm sitting in front of my computer, thinking why the hell I'm stuck the whole weekend in Gießen, doing nothing but staring at books and Radiology websites. (Well I just kind of pigged out on a barbecue with some Vietnamese neighbors for two hours, but that's beside the point. Not what I meant.)

The Elbe river in Dresden - Sometime around March 2014

I never managed to make a post about my Dresden trip. It only lasted for two days, but it was great. I visited Sophie, one of my best friends from high school, who is also a wonderful host.

The famous Semperoper in Dresden

It's sad how I have seemed to forget way too much about that trip. All I remember are bits and parts flashing as copies of those pictures in my mind, and then three things that obviously made an impact: 

1. Watching the Champions League game between Manchester United and Bayern München in a student pub with Sophie - both of us rooting for ManU
2. Having breakfast with Sophie and her 5kg Nutella jar
3. Eating out for Lunch with Sophie and her boyfriend on the day I left, and the restaurant took so long with the food that I missed my train

And of course I failed to take pictures of all that stuff. :( 

Except for the Nutella, of course. Notice how the Nutella jar is bigger than the 1 liter water kettle?

For the next trips, I definitely have to take more pictures. And after taking them, I have to put them on a platform I frequent more than my HDD. It kinda worked with Paris, and especially my Vietnam trip last year. I'm still relishing the memories everytime I see the pictures.

Anyway, what I really want to say with this entry is: I'm re-infected with the travel bug. Strasbourg is coming up in a few days, but there's still a Radiology exam between now and Strasbourg, and that's pissing me off. 

Even worse, I know what's waiting for me in the coming six months. Lab work. Work that will cuff me to watching over some brain cells and restrict me from seeing the world. Do I need to say more? 

Zero motivation for doing anything routine-ish right now. Stupid, stupid travel bugs. Now's so not the right time to make me sick. :(

I just want to chill, okay?
