First experiences in the first day of the second stay in Frankfurt

Yeah, such a long title to briefly explain by first feelings at the beginning of my second stay in Frankfurt, back after exactly one year. I have passed through this, so I know that at the very first moment, everything looks like a disaster, but, after a while, it turns out to be very nice and convenient.

Firstly, I would like you to know that two of my closest friends are having tough times and therefore I am not fully feeling in the perfect mood for starting a new adventure, since I indirectly felt I was leaving them behind. They are consuming an important part of my powers right now.

Having said that, the first day has been a disaster, I only have accumulated negative experiences. At home, let me enumerate some of them: my house still smells as it was recently painted, the freezer in the house is too small, at nights the tram and the cars outside make a lot of noise (gotta get used to it as soon as possible), the pillow in my bed is too soft (I now have a strong backache due to it), I am having problems with Internet and it does not work properly, the sound in the TV is broken, some water drops fall from the kitchen tap,... At work, the situation has not improved much. Hopefully, most of these problems have an easy solution.

However, I only faced a problem: my user account was locked and I could not log in until late in the afternoon. It means that I have done nothing today regarding paperwork and some other stuff I wanted to do. It could be said that today has been a "wasted day". On the other side, the work seems challenging enough as to soon overcome these difficulties.

To sum up, nothing extraordinary in my first days here: a lot of stuff to solve and a lot of problems. Nothing new, to be honest. I expect to start improving soon...
