I think that the reason human beings developed so much (and so differently from other animals) through the passing time, is their special feature of being so curious about everything. “Is there a better place for me to live apart from the caves”? “Is there another way for me to cook meat”? (Yeah, the frikadellian one!!!) “Where do I come from”? “How can I fly like birds”? “Why do I feel my heart beatings speeding up and my stomach getting a tight naught when this person is smiling at me”? … … …
About 8.000.000 years later, since our ancestors begun to think, a cold and rainy night of February (okay, maybe it wasn’t that cold but it sounds more poetic that way), I wondered how it would seem to me leaving my home, my friends, my habits, my speaking language and the rest of “my’s” and go to another country in order to live there and study for 5 months.
From that instant moment, until I got here, not a day passed without thinking how it would be for me to speak English with everyone and study in English as well, to meet other people and to live in a foreign country. I kept thinking how weird it will be for me to speak loudly Greek in the bus on my way to school without someone understanding me (except from Alexandra and some tourists we meet occasionally).
I made some plans, I imagined some things and I hope for some other as well. Some of them came true and some didn’t but I don’t feel disappointed cause I know that it is too soon and I still have enough time to fill up (and hopefully to overflow) my memory box with experiences, feelings, images, tastes, sounds and colours!
What I am thinking right now ? Let the party begin!!!!!
