THE HAPPENINGS

kaiserkuchenI LEFT MY DORM ROOM FOR THE FIRST TIME IN uh *counts* ...THREE DAYS! Man, did Sven and Carmen ever give me a weird look when I mentioned that. I mean, I had food! Water! The internet! What more does one need? Also I totally saved money that way. Though I guess it was kind of sad and vaguely disturbing how I would actively strain to hear for signs of Sabrina-activity to die down and mean that I could leave my room for the bathroom/kitchen. I JUST DIDN'T WANT TO ACTUALLY SEE HER AT ALL COSTS OKAY. I did realize the folly of hoping she would actually just leave yesterday though, since it was then 8PM and I was kind of hungry since 2PM already (and had kind of run out of satisfying snack food). Ah well! She seems to be gone since this morning though... FINGERS CROSSED THAT THIS LASTS FOR A FEW DAYS, AHH.
But yes, where was I before drifting off in that tangent that might have revealed some of my neurotic tics-- FOOD! Sven, Carmen and I had some Thai food at the Thai Lotus, also in our 20. district, and apparently as per lokaltipp.at one of the best Thai restaurants in Vienna? I had Somtam and Yam Woonsen Talae, which was pretty good if a little bit bland-- and I got to talk to the staff in Thai, so I was pretty happy. The Thai food I always have a craving for just mostly never is the stuff they serve here, I am normally not so much a fan of the Pad Thai or all the curries, so it was great to finally get to om nom nom on tasty papaya salad and glass noodles ♥. Will probably be heading there again when the weather gets more sunnier, especially since it is right near the Augarten for some awesome post-fooding walks.
AND NOW I should probably do a smidge of research for my PR-Übung that I will probably end up doing myself, as the group I am with has proven themselves to be a bunch of non-communicative incompetent asswipes. WHAT IS SO HARD WITH USING EMAILS TO DISCUSS THINGS. How hard is it to collectively come up with a PR Agency name that is not some bullshit like 'Forgive Us' or 'Miscommunication'?? I understand the sentiment to make things fun, but calling it names like that just smacks of self-fulfilling prophecies, especially since we are all collectively too incapable of staying in touch. And the agency name isn't even the only thing we are supposed to do-- so much for getting collective input on our hypothetical budget for the image improvement campaign we are supposed to do for the Viennese 10th district, or how we should precisely formulate our mission statement. AND WE KNEW ALL OF THIS SINCE TUESDAY. Heck, I thought I could send them an email early Thursday afternoon, and we'd have something by Saturday evening at least, but no. GOD, I HATE LONG TERM GROUP ASSIGNMENTS WITH PEOPLE YOU ALREADY DON'T KNOW (because then you at least know who you can yell at to get their asses on with it.) I am so going to get the rep as the goody-two-shoes of the group, but goooooood I was just so tempted to type a font-size 40 missive at them that would just blink over and over again "WHY DO YOU ALL SUCK SO MUCH??".

I love pad thai and all the curries, but it just never tastes right when you're overseas. Awesome for getting to talk to people in Thai though. I was watching the second ep of Ginger's documation the other day and fffffffffffff, I miss hearing people talk in Thai. *cling*
