First week of term... is over, finally!

This was the first week of winter term and it was somehow particularly stressful. I don't know why, my schedule isn't any busier than usual.

MONDAY
-Work
-Course on "Gothic" (not precisely Gothic literature, since one of thing I had to photocopy - the lecturer is the professor I work for - was a page out of Neil Gaiman's Sandman. This promises to be awesome.)
-Work (again)
-Roleplaying Group (in the evening)

TUESDAY
-Course on "Metaphor and Metonymy in Cognitive Linguistics" (I am already horrified. Why are linguistics so much like science?)

WEDNESDAY
-"Cosmology and the theology of Creation in Judaism" (This is actually part of my pedagogical studies, which require a course in Ethics or Theology, although I picked a fairly unusual course. It's offered by the Jewish University, which is a separate, if small university within the university in Heidelberg. The lecturer might or might not be a rabbi, and he reads from the Old Testament in Hebrew a lot, which might as well be Ancient Korean for all that I understand it, but I am definitely in awe. There are a lot of senior citizens - I think this might be something only German universities do, allowing old people to guest-listen - in this course.)
-Work

THURSDAY
- Work
- "German Grammar" (I'm a masochist. But I thought in case I'll ever teach non-natives, this might be a good idea.)
- "Thomas Mann's 'Magic Mountain'" (Unfortunately, this appears to be the worst course this semester...at first impression, I strongly dislike the lecturer.)
- Creative Writing (same procedure as every year...)

FRIDAY
- Sport (in the evening)
