Parties, and why I dont like them/germany/the shack

I dont like parties, in fact I avoid them as a rule, I dont like parties where I practically know no one, even more so, parties where I barely know the native language, more so even when Im still jet lagged.... enter Saturday night, It all went ok at the end, but still part of it was retarded. as I said, I dont like parties, never have never will. But more to the point, that is to say, my first 2 days here, were good, disorientating, tiring etc. but on the whole, they have been better than my first few days In Austria, I already feel at home here, and thats awesome. I read the Shack this morning, I want to know what you think. I liked it, though it deserves a re-reading, there was a lot there to handle, especilly in one sitting. But regardless, during my off time here, I will occasionaly stare at myself in the mirror, and wonder wtf I have gotten myself into.
