The Flu Shot & Jeans Searching

Yeah I'm so lazy now ... I update my blog irregular :( ... but still I work hard to keep you informed :)

Yes, on Monday I just did nothing useful, surfing on the net, and enjoying my free time. Before I went to bed I studied my Accounting schedule - SHOCK - I just saw that I was two weeks late with my homework ... yeah that's why it was time to get serious and catch up ...

On Tuesday I had to get my flu shot ("Grippeimpfung"), I don't know if it's a good thing, but the risk to get it is high (bus to university is usually crowded ...) and I prefer to avoid it if possible. Now it was really funny, because you have to get the flu shot at the grocery store ... between eggs and cough drops ("Hustenbonbons") and not as habitual at the doctor's practice ("Arztpraxis"). And the best - I also had a discount with my member card of the grocery store and was able to collect some air miles, isn't that cool??? :)


On Wednesday I got some phone calls because of my upcoming birthday, besides nothing special happened. On Thursday I went out to do some shopping, particularly I was looking for new jeans. But my legs are too short for Canadian norms ... I was not able to find any fitting jeans in the adult department, yet I found some Lewis jeans in the kid department ... and I got them for a special good price (kids price!): $22.95 - Yeah, isn't that a nice advantage of buying kids stuff??? And for the next time: I will buy adult size and bring them to a taylor, that should work (and I also will get the colour I like!!!) ...

On Friday I met some other students for having dinner together ... and to celebrate my birthday (my birthday was actually on Thursday). I got some nice gifts: a 2006 Calendar with pictures of Canadian landscapes, a cribbage board game (including the cards), and also a t-shirt of the University of Manitoba. Yet, don't feel bad if you forgot my birthday, usually I use to forget all the birthdays too ...
