You'll never know where life might lead us

Gotta say everything didn't go as planned with my university studies.
I did not become a law student, probably because I was too lazy to read enough, after all.
So, I also did entrance exams to University of Jyväskylä to study German language and culture and teaching.

The weirdest part here?
I didn't study for that test. 
I read the material that was on the test during that morning, and had my test at 1pm.
Somehow I managed to get in and also fake in the interviews that I was motivated and capable of being a teacher.
And looks like I got in.

I don't know if it's my old dreams of studying in Germany haunting me or what, but this bachelor and master's program includes obligatory exchange in Germany. 
So looks like some dreams come true after all.

This last month I've been looking for myself an apartment, which I finally got from Jyväskylä's university student village, buying things I'll need while living there, going trough everything I own, applied for student money and student loan and housing benefit, the latest of which I still haven't got decision from Finnish Social Insurance institution.

But now everything looks like they are alright and I feel like I've got it all under control.
I'm alarmingly starting to feel like a real adult.
Never thought this day would come.
I'm moving out on 1.8.

School starts on 1.9 and I got to admit, I have no idea what on earth I've even got myself into.
I mean I really don't know what studying languages in university will be like and how much I'll have work to do to keep up with everyone else.
I suck at German, even tho I've studied it 5 years already. 
I'm going to be so dead before this year is over and I'm sure I'm going to regret accepting this place in this university.
But to be honest, I also think that I'm gonna love the next 5 years ahead of me, regardless of all the work and pain it's going to put me through.
