August...

Sorry that I haven't written so far but I had a lot of things to do.

First, I was working at a local hotel, called Nereus. It's a 3-star building right next to the coast of the Balaton. I was working as a waitress in August. This work was very interesting because it was completely different from all the works I had done before and I could get to know how a restaurant functions. Basically I had to bring the prepared food to the giuests, but I had other exercises as well. I had to clean the rooms of the restaurant, clean the spoons, knives and forks, plus help the people with the most relevant pieces of information. At the first teading, it might sound as if it was an easy job. Actually it wasn't. I had to be standing all day long or be in movement, so I could sit down only when I was eating. I was working almost every day 8-10 hours each day, so it has became fatiguing by the end of the month. All in all, I enjoyed this period because I could get to know a lot of people, I could eat delicious food and I can work there next summer, too. :)
Secondly, I had to find a flat for the schoolyear because I was rejected from the dormitories where I had applied. :( Fortunately I could find the best flat for me: its prise is not so high and it's very close to everything that is important for me: the uni and my friends :D
Thirdly, I had to compose my brand new order of courses. I will have very good lectures: Italian art history, Italian-Hungarian translation, Romanistics, etc...but the most important for me: FINALLY I CAN STUDY FRENCH! :) I have wanted to do this for 10 years and now I can. :D
So this month was a bit tiring for me but it was full of good news. :)
