My life in Hamburg is going sooo well so far, I've had a lot of difficulties at the beginning and some inbetween but at the moment I feel really at home at the university and in my new dormitory room. During the last two weeks I've also actually painted again, after not having touched a brush at all since god knows when.
Step by step there are certain improvements in my chinese which is probably because I speak it a lot. The only thing that bothers me about my new-found addiction is the fact that it takes up all of my time and there is nothing left for all the other languages I have learned before and would like to practice again...it's such a shame...even english doesn't come as naturally to me as it used to before I went to China...well I guess I just have to work hard and maybe take some courses at the university like business english or french conversation...麻烦啦
