22-10-2018 I've been back to South Africa for roughly a year already now.
The first three month I was here without a Visa due to the reason that I still needed my police clearence certificate...
While back in South Africa I got the pcc and therefor I could apply for my visa once I was back in Switzerland for about 1.5 Month. Unfortunately I could only apply for two years because I
already volunteered here for one year... but who knows, maybe two years is more than enough anyway.
Also... I decided against bringing Aïcha down here and as much as I miss her - I know it was the right decision.
She's doing great at my dads getting alng better with Simba and all....
The time back home in January/February I mostly spent with my sister and my brother-in-law helping them rebuild their home but also celebrating a late christmas... and I had an amazing time.

So, today, I need to get rid of something...
I kinda lost my "best friend" recently.
I didn't really loose him in the way of him moving away or dieing or anything like that.
I lost him in a way that's fare worse than that - I realized he never was a true friend to me.
There was a time, when we spent a lot of time together and we could tell each other everything and we were honest about everything - or at least I was and I beliefed he was too (turns out, he wasn't).
Well.... we had our ups and downs especially this year. It also turns out that he's currently in therapie for anorexia and slight depression - or that's at least what he tells the whole world on
his youtube chanel ^^
(so much about us being honest and telling each other everything ^^ and that after he just got really mad at me for not telling him that I might have feelings for him just a little while ago....
I mean, he didn't fucking talk to me for more than two weeks - even longer if I didn't insist on talking to him ^^)
Well, anyway. It turns out he's a two faced, lying little hypocrite and as such fits in perfectly into the world of HELLabrunn - 'cause those kinda seem the criteria to be hired at that facility.

I'm finally back home in Switzerland.
On Saturday, 30th of September, I handed over the keys for my appartement and left Munich. My dad came to pick me up and bring me - with all my stuff and my cat "Aïcha" - back to his place where
I'll be staying for the next two weeks before I'm off to South Africa :)
Aïcha handled the journey really well and upon arrival investigated her new temporary home and then decided that under my dads bed was the olace to be - for now at least.... I'm confident that over the next few days she will be getting used to everything and she will start being more confident - and maybe even stop hissing at Simba that much....

Some days are worse than others.
Lest week, Wednesday and Friday, my landlord came to show my appartement to potential new tenants - I was sooooo glad once they finally left again. Def. can't stand having people in my appartement I don't know.
Just now I got the info on the new tenant - it's the one girl that was excited about the flat having a cat-flap and now... she says she doesn't want it anymore ^^
Also I need to get rid of all my furniture because she already has everything she needs...
And I'm still waiting for my Import Permit and my PCC from Pretoria ^^
Generally, I'm still hopefull to get both in time. But some days I'm realy desperate and don't know what to do - and today is one of those days.
The worst about it is, that there's nothing to be done - just st and wait.
Some days just really suck.

I got a new job!
So, the day before yesterday I had a missed call on my phone that I returned yesterday and I was invited to come over to for a job-interview/try out today.
So I got up arround 6am and got ready to go to work. The work place is about 15min by bicycle from my place so that's pretty cool.
The work itselfe is rather basic, but still kinda fun and I'll only be working there for about 6-7 weeks.
Another great thing is, that weekends will start at 12:30h on fridays!
The more, I just booked my trainticket to attend my sister's wedding-celebration in Belgium. :D

Sooo, right now, I'm still waiting to hear back from South Africa...
Since I'll be leaving for home to attend my sisters wedding next week, I'm hoping that upon arrival back in MUC I'll be finding some letters in my mail-box. (Waiting for police clearance and
import permit...)
Other than this, I kinda started sorting through my stuff, deciding on what to take along to SA and what to put in storage at my parents place - and what to throw away....
My goal is, to bring one big backpack and a suitcase to SA and put maybe two boxes in storage... So far I threw away quite a lot of paper-thingys and about 2,5 bags of clothes - unfortunately
there is still more to go...
For the rest of my stuff.... I either try to sell it, give it away or throw it away - and today I just sold my fencing equipment for like 60bucks.... which is close to nothing but still more than
I would have gotten, had I had to throw it away....
Well, that's it for now... I'll keep you posted if anything new happens...
Ah, yeah, I'm also currently busy finding a job to gain some money.....
