Above, my mini half-hearted attempt at revision post session. It was really fun, hopefully I can make time and get somewhere with it. Und auch mit Deutsh. hopefully Berlin someday!
The weekend was this awesome recharge at Shared Planet that redeemed the preceeding week. The week had dribbled and annoyed me like dry spittle, Thursday called for emergency measures: a trip to blackwells. A hanif kureishi was procured, coincidentally, I had watched my beautiful laundrette. If I daresay, very similar scent..The highlight of Shared Planet was better understanding of carbon markets and the pro-cons of the debate in the workshop. Finally! Even though these could be found on the web, I reckon with me its the number of times I have to read/listen to it to finally hammer it in. So that was good. While I could understand mr. danny xxxx(?) ‘s cons explanation, I was fairly annoyed with his derisive laughter and hyperbolic phrases which punctuated his delivery. It couldve done without it because it just made me feel he was very bias and opinionated. Which Im sure he isnt. Another score: finally understanding the theory of how credit creates economic activity in the short run. Ann Pettifor did what Suckling and Rahimah couldnt, perhaps again its just a matter of my own time, or the fact I wasnt asleep to be fair…
The train ride home was really nice, had nice conversations and finally really felt part of the crew. also, it was the crowded train that did it really – it just felt all so industrious (everyone was reading something, perhaps more importantly, I read for partway! First time I didnt doze off or just stare blankly out the window daydreaming) and purposeful. Travelling. Viajamos, wir reiste.
I should take at one luxurious long bath a week. Hydrotheraphy.
I love the library at night, its full of quiet people purring like smooth engines, chugging like steam trains and making underground tunnels like earthworms. Today was a good night and I heard Mr. Tom Tietenberg loud and clear from my favourite room in the library. What more excellence dare I expect!
