Maik and Tschick say that they are going on vacation, but I think it is also an escape from everyday life or an escape from home

2.

1.The situation in which Maik and Tschick think about whether there are aliens in space is the situation in which the two start to really like each other because they understand that they think alike and that they are not that different. 2. In the situation in which they are fleeing from the hospital. I think the trust of the two in the other is already very strong and it is strengthened again by Maik Tschick helping to run or flee. so he does not leave him behind.

3. When during the court hearing. Tschick says that everything was his idea. I think that he wants to protect Maik, because Maik does not yet have any criminal activities, unlike himself

Travel journal (from Tschick's point of view)

Day 1 we started today. I think I'll write down what happens in case we need it later or something. Maik thinks I still think about last night, because of the thing with Tatjana. I think he really likes her but somehow he doesn't show any feelings like that. If you understand that. I don't think he's the best at things with feelings and such. I really like his jacket but it looks so cool with the kite. it doesn't matter it's getting dark and yes. Till tomorrow. (Yes, I was just seriously talking to the book) Day 2 Maik found a strange music cassette under the doormat today, from some

Clayderman. I don't even know if you can call it music, since it was just a piano strumming, but we still listened to the cassette. Much more important to tell, we drove on the autobahn today and Maik got quite a shock when such a big guy yelled he would call the police. I knew that it was just an empty threat and then had to calm Maik down for what felt like an eternity. In any case, we didn't know where when we were down from the autobahn and then we talked about a Kopass and watches. I'll be brief now because Maik says we have to go on now: we then drove to a field. Bye!

— Me: „excuse me, you seem a little bit lost in here. Do you need any help?“ — Customer: „actually; yes, i do need help. I wanted to start a new novel, considered for my age, something for teenagers. I‘m not sure about this one, though.“ — Me: „what book is it?“ — Customer: „here, it’s TSCHICK. Odd name.“ — Me: „Ah! I love this book, really.„Customer: „Do you recommend this piece?“ — Me: „yes, i totally would. It‘s really good written. Not like other novels, this one is written like a real teenager would talk and narrate the story.“ —Customer: „good, that‘s actually what I searched for, but the summary makes me insecure for buying it. I mean; the story sounds weird.“ — Me: „yeah, that‘s the whole point.“ —Customer: „what!?“ — Me: „the story is really messy about two weird people, stealing a weird car, having a weird reason to travel with it, meeting very weird people, and having weird adventures.“ —Customer: „you don‘t really make me want to buy this piece.“ — Me: „I know, what I tell you is this: every other character in this novel think that these two teenagers have the weirdest lifes ever, as I explained, but in reality, it‘s about a beautiful friendship with pretty funny teenagers meeting helpful strangers in a great adventure. Everything in this book explains a lifechanging experience. But I don‘t want to spoil too much, you need to make your own opinion and expierence.“ — Customer: „Wow, that actually sounds pretty interesting. I will buy it! Thank you for your opinion, really.“]]> 2021-06-18 10:09:19 UTC https://padlet.com/beatevollmer/cf913p8cg5gvaw60/wish/1614071982 Aurelia's response: https://padlet.com/beatevollmer/cf913p8cg5gvaw60/wish/1622004312 1.   Maik and Tschick went on a trip, but without their parents, that is a vacation from a diffrent point of view, as the have to take care of everything themselves.
2.   I think hat goes very well with Tschick  and Maik, because Maik previously described tschick as a total Asi and didn’t like him at all.  After that, Tschick was his best friend.
