The Syndicate

I'm addicted to Pepsi. On a higher level, it's probably the fizz I'm addicted to, but not all sodas satisfy me in that regard. Even if I would manage to somehow switch to water entirely, it would have to be sparkling water. The stronger, the better.

I'd also like to learn Portuguese.

Resolutions beyond what new books to read or what new operas to watch for the first time tend to not work in my case. If anything, I'd put this year on hold and hope, motivate myself and try to achieve better things starting end of '16-next year.

But if I can think of something in general:

-- manage to balance my jobs with my practice, so that the tumor feeling of 16 years of studying are slowly going to waste won't grow any bigger than it already is
-- manage to focus on my PhD
-- manage to focus on the recitals I have to prepare
-- get my B2 Zertifikat in German (that's bound to happen anyway - the test, at least, I mean)
-- go out on a date
