Day 1 [02.10.2009] Moving in
- Monday, October 12, 2009 -
It's the first day I step foot in Munich!
Took 3 hours of train from Heidelberg to Munich. The luggage were like WAY too heavy for me. Whenever I need to move the luggage up and down the train, I needed others to help me to do it. ): So embarassing! I had to transfer trains at Stuttgart. And I have to PUSH (yes, I PUSHED my luggage instead of PULL cos really no strength) from platform 3 to platform 20! That's like SUPER DUPER long way can. I thought I couldn't make it to the train but luckily I did.
On the train, the aisle were tooooo narrow for my luggage! So paiseh to choke up the aisle. Luckily there was a nice german lady who offered me a seat near the doors. And guess what, the train had some technical faults and delayed for 17 minutes (ok, see how precise Germans are). Finally, I reached the main train station of Munich and luckily the other exchange student from NUS came and fetch me and helped me with the luggage.
My room: not as good as expected but ok~ will have some pictures when I have time to take some.
Then, we went to IKEA to get some necessities for my room e.g. pillows, blankets, curtains, plates, bowls, knifes, chopping board, pan etc. Spent 49.97 Euros!! Expensive, but necessary. ):
Did some groceries at the grocery store below my hostel because the next day (Sat 03.10.2009) is the Germany's National Day and shops will be closed on Saturday and Sunday! Did like 16+ Euros of groceries. After groceries, it was time to unpack and REST! (:
