Hotpot session

Just came back from the hotpot session… didn’t eat much. We had Vietnamese style.. very spicy and sour. Didn’t really like the soup base. Rush to the toilet after my meal, just as i expected. Guess it was because of the spiciness and sourness. But we had a good time chatting and laughing ard.

Thank-Giving dinner

Just came back from my 1st Thank-Giving dinner. International dishes we had. Chat, crack jokes, exchange thots and even secrets. Tried several dishes which I’ve never seen before, some taste funny… but still I like the glut wine best. Glut wine is a type of typical german x’mas wine, it had to be drink piping hot. Real hot and it taste delicious. I drank so much; luckily there wasn’t much percentage of alcohol. So I was still sober.. Cool…

There was like this break-off virus in our batch. I just came to know there were already 4 couples that break-off with their partner in their home town. I was shocked. Everyone was here for only less than 3 months and so many things happened. When they came over, they were still happily chatting about their relationships. But now sad to say that things is happening this way. It is so difficult to maintain long distance relationship?

My own problem...

It seem to be my problem... Is my expectation too high...

Happened several times, i expect my grp members to be more independent and complete the task by themselves instead of being late and keep on waiting. In the end, i wasted my time doing nothing except waiting and waiting.
Just a simple task and yet cant make their own decision. Really pissed me off. If they want to book consultation time then go ahead. If not dun bother. It seem that everything they do they have to ask, ask and ask. Trying to test my temper only.

Neuruppin















Neuruppin - November 09

Day 1 – Neuruppin
After 2 hours journey down southeast of Germany, we had reached Neuruppin. We are doing our small project here in the famous attraction of the town.
My impression of Neuruppin.. weather was cold… beautiful lake… quiet and peaceful town. We first started with a simple city tour… well… it was quite pleasure to walk down the street. We went to the destination of where we had to be going for the next couple of days; Temple Garden. It was a small garden but with many sculpture and statue of the famous people in Neuruppin left down from past history.
Dinner was served at a restaurant in temple garden. Had beef for the 1st time. I had no choice but to eat the food. The food was standard… nobody can be picky about it as accommodation and food was free and included for this small project. Traditional german food. Had to behavelike the german.
After the food, we went to tour the temple garden for the night view so we can be prepared about how we are planning with the lighting effect. Spooky and creepy… not a single lamp was lighted. It was so dark inside this garden. We had to walk so slowly and watching our steps. I was commenting that with the wind blowing, the botak tree branches (due to winter the leaves all fallen) it was exactly like a typical western horror movie…

Day 2 and Day 3 – Neuruppin
We started working in the temple garden from 1pm till midnite after 1am then we return to our dorm. It was raining and we were all freezing. Still we have to work.. gosh… we were all like slaves. It was really hardwork. We were all drenched, tired, cold and starving.

Day 4 – Neuruppin
Finally is the showdown. We went to the park really earli to make sure that things were in place and getting ready for the public. God really heard all our prayers, it went on smoothly till eveing. TO my surprise, there was a long queue of public waiting to get into this garden. Everyone was shocked at their present. It was really touching. After three days of preparation, we can exhibit our work and the public were really amazed by the result. There was a couple of hiccups… half way thru the whole garden got into total darkness. I couldn’t even see my own finger let say even walking a few steps. The power fuse was overloaded and for almost half an hour, there was no light and we were like all going like mad running ard to solve the problem. Luckily we managed to powerup the fuse and things went back to normal again. Everyone stayed till after midnight to clear all stuff. We were like really super terribly dying to go back and rest.

Day 5 – Neuruppin
All were over, I was really glad to be cuming back to Wismar. To my own small whole. Everybody went early to studio for our last briefing. The prof showed us the local newspaper, we were all on the news. Our works received remarkable great positive comments. Everyone were giving us thumb up for all the effort we made and we created a night of pleasure for the local. Great job… so all the really hard work was worth it.
