What A Hipster

Right now it's like being in Williamsburg, in some no-name storefront, except I'm in a Starbucks, what a damn sellout. Anyway, today has been one of many adventures. Let's first consider the fact that I did not sleep last night (gotta be out by 6:30). So last marketing exam on friday, didn't study nearly as much as I should have for it, don't know what my problem is regarding that, but on the bright hand, I did finally organize and clean the room, and I'm getting new light bulbs. I write about shit sometimes. So test happened, 9:30am. Studied about half of the stuff on Thursday, then went to sleep around 11, wanted to have gone to sleep earlier like on Monday night for consumer behavior exam I woke up at 3:30 and studied for like 6 hours before the exam...that worked out well, it was fresh in my head, and I was awake, on time, not rushed, annd focused. 70% is a big chunk, we'll see how that goes. So I already wrote the story about how I had to go Schiedamm/Rotterdam to retrieve my stupid EuroRail pass. But I took care of it and got the validation. SO yesterday marketing research exam was tooo long, my hand was going to fall off. It is because there were 5 questions. That extra one really was significant, 4 would have been fine. but that 1 section to describe all the main effects and interactions, everything in the ANOVA output tables was fucking significant so you had to draw conclusions about everything., that took fucking forever, some of the questions were ok, there was also a 5 point bonus question and it seems like we start out with 10 free points so hopefully this all goes in my favour. So that ended at 12:30 and then I went back home and had lunch and played around with Itunes and downloaded movies and music for most of the afternoon, oh yes and cleaned the room. Then we were going to go smoke or something but everyone was really tired and I was too so I waited until after I made dinner, then I had to go out and pick up the backpack from Terri then I stopped at Alex's and hung out with him and Andreas drinking beer and watching random british music videos like Madness and Bad Manners. Then we ended up over at Casa Erasmus because the usual I-House party hosts were gone in Belgium for the weekend. I stayed until about 10;30 and went home because they were going to Catwalk and I still needed to pack and stuff. Everything worked out great because I was all ready and out the door by 6:30, cut it close a little bit with figuring out and how much to pack, but in the pitch blackness of the early morning I made it over to the Woudestein #21 tram stop, and was at Centraal station by 7. Of course none of the toilets were open :P  so I got on the train at 7:17 to Eindhoven and that worked out fine, saw the sun rise and got to Eindhoven at 8:30, then picked up the ICE train at 8:45. Little did I know was that there was only 1 working track between Frankfurt and Eindhoven so the train was majorly delayed. I wa supposed to catch a 12:01 from Frankfurt to St. Polten (right outside of Vienna) and from there catch a 3-hour train at around 6pm to Budapest but fucking would have it that they didn't hold th e 12:01 and of course that was the only convenient train of the day. thus, my adventrue begins at the Frankfurt airport train station where I find out the soonest I can now get to Budapest is 8:30 the next morning. I have ended up in Dresden where I landed at about 7:30. My new itinerary consists of a 2:15 local train from Frankfurt to Dresden, that train took forever but it was nice, the only thing I regret is that it is now dark out and I can see outside in the train. Anyway, it is 8:30pm now and I am sitting in Starbucks awaiting for my 10:10 phantom express, yea for 10 hours! It is a nighttrain so I needed to make a reservation so I successfully transferred my St Polten train reservation for this one. I will be in some sort of compartment, I had wanted to avoid a nighttrain but here it is, hey its an experience. I hope I can fall asleep, I will read I guess.. No guided Pest tour at 10am, but I will try to make it myself in the afternoon, go to a bath and relax and SLEEP maybe, sun goes down early here, sunset seemed to be before 7 now, I can't stand the 8:30amm sunrise in Rotterdam but the bright side is next weekend daylight savings time ends and we get 1 extra hour of sleep on Halloween night! Mad Caddies too! Woo! I need to eat, I am jabbering now. So I woke up at 5:30am on Friday, did not sleep Friday night, have dozed occasionally throughout the day today, and will be traveling for over 25 hours...Eh I slept ona  bench for 2 nights at Oktoberfest, I can make it through this. Ok, I will next update after seeing some stuff in Budapest, Godspeed to me! I just want to make it to my room already and lay down and have a shower and change, oi!  Guten tag!
