The most exciting part of any fully equipped train is the toilet. If you like roller coasters but it’s not yet the season, just pop on a train and close yourself in there. It’s a tiny capsule of motion, and because there are no windows, the sensation of hills and turns makes it feel like Indiana Beach. (Not recommended for those susceptible to motion sickness.) I always save up my functions to give myself the option to use the toilet on a train.
So this makes it an official goodbye to Tübingen for a good while now, and hello to Berlin. Our train will arrive in a few hours, and I finally get to see the city that everyone has such great feelings for. One thing I’ve been waiting anxiously for since I left London: jubz tee, aka bubble tea. I don’t really call it jubz tee. Hopefully no one does. Just wanted to make that clear. I just want to taste that slow slick sweetness and suck those slimy balls into my mouth. Oh Bubble Tea, you said you’d make an honest woman of me. You lied.
I get to see Corny’s family again when I’ve only spent an hour or so with them back in August. I’m nervous, but in the “I hope they like me” kind of way. Especially since Corny whispers in my ear how they’re gonna bury me alive.
BUT as much as I’m looking forward to imminent Berlin, I must look back on the Tübingen highlights.
1. Corny falling out of bed while he was reading. Coordination, ladies and gentlemen. It’s hard to read and lay down at the same time, OK?!
2. I became a regular at the gummy bear shop. I tried to muster up some shame, but I couldn’t.
3. The dog that wouldn’t stop barking inside the post office. I love animals, but I wished we were in America so I had the excuse to shoot it for no reason.
4. Trying to get the rear door of the bus open. There’s three doors, and the bus driver only controls the front two. The back door works by taking a blood sample, and only opens if you’re more than 43% German or 2% avian (REFERENCES!)
5. Nekarbruke? Nein, Nektarbruke.
6. The beloved person in the flat who consistently urinated on the shower curtain, so the bathroom reeked of…potty.
7. Never having toilet paper because no one ever replenishes the supply except me.
8. Not leaving the flat until the afternoon just to be lazy. I know that won’t be allowed anymore.
I just must tell myself that on hard days, I will force Corny to give me a bubble tea in the name of sweet, sweet love. He’s a good man like that, feeding me sugar when I probably shouldn’t have any.
The next month is more than just Berlin! It’s back in the UK for a little bit too. I’ll get to go to some more cubing comps, and I get to see my besties again who I miss so much.
Thanks for reading! PEACE.
