...in this life
in this staat
in this town
in this rooothenfluh
i'm coming in from the coooold...
i'm coming in, coming in, coming in...
....yes, i'm talking to you now,unknown friends @ englishforum, a place i found (by chance? i don't think so) in this yet another saturday closed alone at home with a brand new pc i am not supposed to have (and even less to use it!!)...but now glad to be in this site (ooh the wonders of the WWW!!)...i really hope things may change a little bit, after 7 months living in this hot cold land and having so few friends to shake things a little bit...
...you are welcome to drop by my page everytime you feel like, even if it's to write a single word- it will always mean so much to me :-) in the meantime i'll look around the several posts i see here (veeery interesting ones indeed!!), even the oldest ones, and maybe i give my contribution to them- a way to show my appreciation...
Thank you for reading this post, and i'm ager to meet you all sooner :-)

I know very much how you feel, i moved here in 2009 (first time) as a dependent. I found that I would hide in the flat with my children. I went back to england last year for a break away and it really made me realize just what I have here. It takes time and this time round I am feeling much better, going to the social events and arranging to meet other people. My german (or lack there of) really hinders me here, but I found a German conversation group of here, I am going to try this week, I am not too good with new situations but, you have to start somewhere..... so I guess what I am trying to say is that if I can do it...... Hope your already de-frosting with the posts you received |
