Torstai 🇫🇮 Fimmtudagur 🇮🇸

I started the day with shopping. Since the pantry was empty, I had to visit the local store for some nosh for breakfast. The early morning walk with Ági and Abby was alright, and the shop wasn't full of nervous customers, so it went well. After devouring the nosh and drinking the much-needed coffee, I sat down to study. FINALLY! I had to complete the homework and the lesson plan for my next class with the guys I had a lesson with yesterday.

At 11:00 a.m., I took Abby for her grooming appointment. We had her fur shortened, a regular general maintenance for a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. When we returned home, it was already hot despite the forecast. Although the meteorologists predicted significantly colder temperatures and lots of rain, none happened today. Truth be told, it got colder today, but not as much as they'd thought it would.

Once we finished lunch, Ági went to teach, and I focused on my next lesson with the group. I'm quite happy with the lesson plan I put together. When Ági's lesson was over, I gave her a foot massage and watched another episode of Ahsoka, the new Star Wars series on Disney+. I don't quite understand why they created this character and the whole series yet. I tried to figure out the purpose of this line of the Star Wars story, but so far, with little success. I wish they'd continued with the Mandalorian story. Anyway, once I finished the foot massage, thick dark clouds gathered, which meant sudden fainting. I got so sleepy that I couldn't keep my eyes open, so I let the force take over the control of my eyelids and fell into a coma-like state for half an hour. The sky was still cloudy when I came to, and my head was like a beehive. We grabbed some food and watched the end of the unfinished episode of Dr. House.

The rest of the afternoon went by quickly. I refined the lesson plan and got ready for my class with Charlette, which was fantastic. She really is a great teacher. They were about to leave for the airport as their plan was due for Argentina. They'll spend a month there and return to Europe in November, I reckon.

Well, this is it for today, let's call it a day...

When I woke up this morning, I knew the day wouldn't be an active one. Nothing sinister happened that would have suggested anything unexpected; it was rather one of those intuitions that depicted how the events of the day would unfold. This gut feeling strengthened when I grabbed Abby's leash and took her for her early morning walk. She was as inactive as I was, and the speed and length of our walk corroborated this theory. We ambled back to the house momentarily. After this painfully short-lived stroll with a surprisingly exhausted canine, I sat in front of the TV, munched my breakfast and slurped the much-needed black nectar in the form of a strong espresso. What a surreal still-life this was. Especially considering how many episodes we have watched from one of the currently watched series. As my system started to absorb the caffeine, switching my wee brain into the first gear, the haze dissipated over today's schedule. Harnessing this ephemeral clear state, I rushed into...

My day was alright. I rearranged the shelves in the basement, which took me two hours to complete. I could have spent more time rearranging, but I had to deal with my homework before the class this afternoon. I had to read a story and summarise its content, write about the characters, and describe my impression. Even though the weather forecast predicts warmer days, the presence of autumn is palpable. The nights are much colder than a week ago, and the morning walks with Abby are faster due to the chilly temperature. I quite like the lower temperature and enjoy taking cold showers in the evenings because they refresh my body. However, I miss my summer sandals, shorts, and T-shirts. Walking Abby without having to don my jacket and put on several other layers was much easier. The English class with Charlette was fantastic. The sixty minutes flew by like a bullet train. I feel lucky to learn from her. After the lesson, I prepared my high tea cocoa pancakes. I love pancakes. When I devoure...

Montag 🇦🇹

We are in Austria. After waking up and devouring breakfast, Ági took Abby to the dog daycare, and I packed my things for the journey. We set out at eleven o'clock, washed the car, and hit the road to get here. The highway was busy, so it took us three hours to reach Parndorf, where we had lunch at Nordsee and drank coffee at Tommy Hilfiger. We did some shopping, only bought the necessary goods and left for the hotel. We arrived at the hotel at 4 p.m., checked in, and drove off to another shopping centre to buy other goods we couldn't find in Parndorf. The hotel is quite nice from the inside. However, the facade and the overall look from the outside seem rather outdated; we felt like being in one of Budapest's hotels. Anyway, the staff is alright, the room is clean, and the view is breathtaking. Since tomorrow is a national holiday here, we'll visit a winemaker in Oslip to buy quality wine - Passatutti. We planned to have "Wiener Schnitzel" there and spend the ...
