SODACHI!

My fake Converse x CdG Play have been WORN out. Since then I've been watching out for some canvas-made sneakers. Despite the fact that they're not in anymore in China, I always feel delighted to stress my German identity on them.

As I don't want plain Chuck Taylors and hi-end sneakers don't fit into my budget, I then turned to those fake Mastermind Japans sold on Taobao. But it was hard to choose.

I found my fav ones when I was cleaning up my tiny room: a pair of Jasonwood (a Zhejiang fashion house) sneakers from year 2003. They don't stink thought they look like as if they did.

The Schipol Airport was closed on last 20th Dec, the day when I arrived for a transfer. And so began the most devastated 30 hours of my life.

These shots are far from revealing the pain, sorrows and tortures I was going through in the two days, as I was only able to capture the most chilled moments of the never-ending journey. I had never hated snow so much. More than that, I swear I'll never step on Dutch soil again, and so do the other passengers queued up in Schipol around the clock, I believe.

One KLM staff member kindly told me to go to Transfer6 for another ticket to Cologne, where I waited up until 4 hours until I was told all I could do was to apply for a hotel shelter. To do this, I was queued up again for 2 hours.

The four-star hotel provided by KLM was fine, but stayed far from the Amsterdam proper. Girls and weeds not in the deal.

I starred at those holiday decorations for a bit of a time. For the first time in my life I was thinking seriously about how to get home. Trains were all cancelled, cars all rented out. Couldn't even get a cab to the hotel while we were waiting for the shuttle bus to come.

The room was cozy. We slept for only for 4 hours through Monday morning in order to get the first shuttle to the ticketing service.

Luckily there were some companions. After standing 6 hours in line to get the rebooked boarding pass, I granted myself a 10-euro-Burger-King-Meal, watching the sky getting cleared up. Top luxury.

Then we moved on to Starbucks to kill another 4 hours before the flight. Right after that I was acknowledged that my flight to Cologne was cancelled again. Under total despair, the staff said there was another night flight to Cologne that was still scheduled to take off on Monday. But nobody was sure.

After 30 hours in Schipol, land covered with snow again. The bus came to take us to the goddamned KLM City Hopper. We were made wait for another 2 hours in the plane as all local staff had gone home, leaving only one runway available for all departuring flights from Amsterdam. How scary was that.

I'd like to take this opportunity to thank all the buddies that stood by me during these 30 hours. And thanks to this I finally realized the Dutch people they only appear to be nice and warm-hearted. On the contrary, Germans are cold through, they never let me down.

又一次非常CHILL地进入着新的一年。很平静。

每天都不知疲倦地品尝着难以下咽的料理。

我的德国也随着这一年结束了。我还是深爱着它的。

终于忍不住问了REINECKE老师，关于我的论文。

老师说JENS老师的评价不错，但因为是第二评委，所以要等第一评委的意见。第一评委是KEINER老师，按KEINER老师的速度，希望春节前能拿到学位证。

这么看来，好像这次回去可以顺利退学（论文不过的可能性大概被排除了），退学了以后就可以调理各种保险和合同的事务，一干二净。

昨天买了本《麻辣日本史：明治物语》，讲的是攘夷倒幕一直到甲午的事情，不是野史而是正史，语言比较网络比较通俗易懂。适合对日本近代历史有兴趣的大家，尤其是对江户、明治感兴趣的人达。


所以似乎明年一定要追随的NHK大河剧是福山雅治的《龍馬伝》，巨阵容，1月3日始播。

快回德国了，基本也就这样了，总结一下……

1. 欧盟商会：面试挂了
2. 西门子：OFFER拒了
3. 德勤：笔试过了，AC挂了
4. 欧莱雅：AC挂了
5. 安联：笔试完了没下文儿了，大概是挂了
6. 尼尔森：笔试完了还没下文儿，没准还有
7. 彭博：AC感冒了没去，挂了
8. 德意志银行：笔试挂了
9. 图片报：觉得不太靠谱就没往下谈
10. 雀巢：电面忘了具体申的是什么了，应该挂了

另外还挂了无数网申，在这个忙碌的秋季。
