Hmmmm

So, I just got back from my department's annual meeting, held this year at Hasenwinkel (http://www.hasenwinkel.com/) and I thought I'd make a short post. So, after living at my apartment for more than two months, I recently noticed that I have a plant. Apparently, it must have always been there. Of course that makes sense, since who would have broken into my aparment and given me a plant, managing to leave without any other trace. The evidence that this plant was always there is further supported by this photo from when I moved into my apartment. Anyway, so it probably goes without saying that I haven't really been caring for this plant, since I didn't know it was there. So, no watering whatsoever. No easy access to sunlight. But, then, the day after I noticed the plant, it sprouted these two pretty flowers (below). You can see it harvesting the light it can from in between the cracks of the venetian blinds.


Pretty nice! Plus, I'm hoping it's not reading too much into things to wonder if this plant is somehow representative of my current state of evolution in Berlin as well. Perhaps...
