my name is Mia. im 19 years old and i've set off to Germany for a "fresh" start as you nay say. my life was hard but i don't think it could get any worse to be honest.
im nervous, really nervous. im not sure who im going to bump into and who im going to meet but i have been able to find a school in Germany that has a load of students my age and who also either are learning english or who also speak it. of course i will be going there since im not so keen on speaking German especially with my english accent. embarrassinggg.
_________________________________i had all of my bags on top of my legs as i was on a train. it was so hot and crowded. people were speaking in German and i couldn't understand anything!
i just got off my plane. it was the worse flight of my life, the whole aircraft was freezing cold and they didn't even have anymore coffee when they managed to get up to me during the flight and now im on this hot stuffy train surrounded in a load of strangers.finally i got to the place i was staying at for the meanwhile,my apartment. it wasn't as bad as i imagined there where quite a few people who also spoke english here which relieved me a lot knowing i could talk to someone around this area.
i let out a sigh as i unlock my door and letting all of my bags and suitcases drag and clash onto the floor making a loud thump. i didn't care i was too tired.
i opened up my bag and grabbed a pair of my pjs to change into yet i felt watched..
im very sceptical when it comes to my privacy and the fact that i just got here triggered me a bit but i brushed it off as i shut the curtains and pulled off my clothes to change into my pjs.once i was finished changing i put my hair up in a messy bun and lay on my bed that i also just made. i was scrolling through my phone mainly looking for things to decorate my apartment since it wasn't really much my style. i liked it but i thought it could be better so i ordered a couple on storage items for my clothes, led lights, a cute stand up mirror with small light bulbs around the outside and some indoor plants. most of them where fake as i had really bad hay-fever but they still looked pretty. i placed my card details in and my order when through. i then started to think about when i should start this school. of course once i've settled in and i know the area much better but i don't know how confident i was in meeting new people. i miss my friends back in England. i will go and visit them frequently and im sure they'd do the same but it all felt so different without knowing that they can come over anytime they please to do so..
i let out a sigh. it was already 7pm some how so i decided to change myself into something a little more decent then my pjs to head out to the shops for a small rummage of things to eat for the meanwhile.
i opened up my suitcase and frowned a bit. i still felt watched..
i got really irritated my this feeling and i know myself more than well enough that i wouldn't be feeling like this is nothing was really wrong. i opened up doors and looked under the bed, frames, wires, out the windows and still, nothing. i felt really uncomfortable and confused as to why i was feeling as if i was being watched. what the fuck im really creeped out right now. i think to myself for a bit and try to brush it of once again as i pick out some army green cargo trousers and a plain black cami top. it was basic but i liked it. i grabbed my converse, tied my laces and left the door making sure to lock it on my way out.i went down not so many stairs as i looked up to the exit. i saw this gorgeous girl who was speaking to someone in the phone in english. she had long red wavy hair with green eyes roughly the same colour as mind. damn she was pretty. i glanced over at her and our eyes met. she gave an odd look at first but then smiled, i smiled back nicely and made my way out of the door.
i pulled out my phone onto google maps since i had no clue where the fuck i was going but anyways i soon enough made it to the local store. i was quite anxious i cant lie.. and especially what made me feel worse was that i cant speak much German and i don't know anyone here.
i walked around the shop and grabbed all of the things i needed. i cant lie the people are really nice here. i got weird looks at first but im guessing thats because its a local area and my face isn't so familiar to them but then i got smiles and small nods of their heads. i felt happy in a way. well it could have gone much worse so im happy. i had a small cart full of chocolates, some crisps, bread, milk, eggs, salt, pepper, tomatoes, butter, ham, cheese, coffee, tea bags, apple juice and orange juice. thats pretty much all i needed for now really so i headed to the till and placed my things down as i watched the cashier scan my items.
he gave me a friendly smile as he showed me the price probably knowing that i wont understand his German so well. i chuckled and nodded my head as i reached for the money out of my bag.
i handed the money over and smiled
"thank you.!" he said in a strong German accent
i looked back "thanks have a good day!" i said back not knowing if he would understand anything i just said or not. whatever he's friendly..
