Betti and Christiane
The weather was so great yesterday! It was crazy hot here (compared to the last days of course!). Wow, hope it stays like this. Unfortunately, I have to study at the moment...
I had to bring my dead computer power supply (The second time within a year!!) to the post office. On my way back home, I found out not to be the only one enjoying the sun: Hi Betti! Hi Christiane! :)

There is a story about his stay in Braunschweig, where he found a job as baker's assistant.
After working for two days, the master baker ordered Till to bake all night on his own. When Till asked "What should I bake?", the master answered sneeringly "You are a baker's assistant, and ask what to bake? What do people usually bake? Owls and long-tailed monkeys?".
When the master woke up the next morning, he found neither rolls nor cakes. Instead, many owls and long-tailed monkeys. He got angry, said he couldn't sell these things, and ordered TIll to pay for the dough. Till paid, and left with his bakery products.
Till didn't need long time to figure out what to do with it, as it was the day before St.Nicolaus. He sold all his products in front of the church, and earned even more money than he had to pay to the baker. The people loved his extraordinary products. (bs-net.de)

Today is so-called "White Day" in Korea.
While we in Germany only know Valentine's day, Koreans have this additional day to show their love. On Valentine's day, korean girls usually give chocolate to their boyfriends. The favour is returned by the boys on White Day, in form of candy.
But just one candy is not enough for my girl, so please take the whole store!
Happy White Day, Jimin!

What would a city be without street musicians? Probably very quiet, lifeless and boring. Thanks to people like him, walking through the city gets a special flair. Wonderful. (another photo here)

Children love birds. Took this picture two days ago. The weather was nice. I enjoyed the sunshine too, although it is was not very warm outside... Summer, where are you?

No... thanks.
Last Saturday, I went to a small party at Christiane's and Martin's place.
Most important reason for the gathering was to discuss some issues regarding Martin and Christiane's upcoming wedding (at March 26). It will take place in a small town, approx. three hours from Braunschweig. So the No.#1 topic for the evening was organizing the trip and some beds for all of us.
This time again, we were surprised by the variety of alcoholic drinks at their place, and also by some tasty foods. It is always a pleasure visiting them :)
As usual, lots of pictures have been taken, and, as usual, are in the internet already. Check out the gallery here.
Thanks Martin, Thanks Christiane!

Yesterday, I lost my time again. I was so fascinated about the possibilities of HTML/CSS for layouting, and wrote new code for my homepage all day. Unfortunatly, it is not ready yet, but I am looking forward to complete it within the next few weeks. The new system will allow me to publish also more story-like entries and also gives me more options for layouting the individual stories.
Anyway, enough of that technic blabla... my head is telling me yesterday's beer was cheap. We had a secret gathering here at my place to talk about a friend's upcoming wedding.
I probably need some silence today....
