One of the things that makes me (and I'm sure that many of you too) happy is when I see that my goals are being gradually realized. When my plans are becoming reality. This is the reason why I've felt better recently. I came to Poland for 10 weeks with clear goals to achieve within this period. So... what I have actually achieved:
-my thesis (I finalized 3 out of 4 chapters which is more than 60 pages; still around 20 to be done and I expect to finish it by the next week the latest; I hope my prof will like it and there won't be any big corrections; I have a year to make them though since I plan to defend it in June 2009)
-getting back all my IDs that I lost in Madrid (all of them are back),
-driving a car (I had to relearn driving a car as I didn't do it for more than a year in Morocco; actually, it seems that my skills weren't lost; I drive as bad as I always did :) and! I submitted a car request form meaning I will get my own car in Brussels:),
-earning money (in progress; the agreement with my parents was that I get the money needed for first month in Brussels in exchange for helping them in houseworks and their summer business; not exciting in terms of kinds of works I have to do but exciting from financial point of view; still there are some details to be negotiated),
-seeing all my friends and family (in progress; mostly realized but still I need to see some of them which will happen soon),
-finding a place to live in Brussels (done!!! I found a cool, well-located and relatively cheap room between the centre and EU area! can't wait to move in there in exactly 3 weeks!).
Maybe the good realization of the plans or maybe the perspective of leaving soon for Belgium or maybe even the fact that the reversed-cultural shock is over and I started liking the country made me feel better. But le Maroc me manque beaucoup encore!! Oh Maroc!!! Tu es où??
