3rd day in Germany
and some other things which i have learnt, realised, noticed or found out:
1) Luka's name is actually spelt as Luca and he is an IT manager...
2) i don't like to be kissed on the face...Luca kissed me farewell and i thought it was awkward...
3) rain in freiburg can be heavy...there is also lightning and thunder...
4) no plastic can be used in a festive party...which is bad because when it started pouring during the Annafestival, Luca ran off with the beer mug in his hand and so it has now become a souvenir for him...
5) i reget not learning cooking from mum...both Luca and Alice have cooked, so i am obliged now to cook too...where is mum when i most needed her? i wonder if i can fry maggie mee and call it singapore noodles, they won't know it because as a singaporean, i don't even have any idea wat singapore noodles is...and yes...there is maggie mee here...
6) there is pantene, head and shoulders, dove and nivea here...
7) all the bottles are made of glass so that they can be recycled...that applies mainly to drinks...
not stuff like shampoo and soap...can u imagine ur shampoo in a glass bottle?
8) it cost 1 euro to buy a 0.5 litres of coca-cola from the school canteen and u will get 15 cents refund if u return the glass bottle...
9) the coca-cola is more gasy than those in singapore...
10) the university canteen is called the mensa...so u can tink of urself as a genius because u r IN the mensa...is it any wonder that it is an university canteen?
11) 3 months of courtship can translate to 30 years of blissful marriage and 3 children...frau sonni and herr man met when they were in their 30s...see the magic number 3? is that y there are many shot gun marriages? but it seems that many have back fired...
12) it is really attractive to see Alice smile, because she is an ice queen...now i understand y an emperor can do stupid things just to make his concubine smile...i'm waiting for alice's smile again...
13) there is a man from switzerland who is coming to study under frau sonni next week...but he is 40 years old...
14) if u wan to add water to ur wine, u shud only add sparkling mineral water and not normal tap water...so i have wine with sparkling mineral water for dinner every night...
15) the rhineland is the warmest place in germany...it is on top of a faultline...so there are earthquakes and a thermal swimming pool...
16) it cost 1.70 euro per entry to the swimming pool...and even more for the swim suit...
17) german kids work for allowance...like teach children to ski or swim...like frau sonni's children...
18) i finally know how to switch on the big light in my room...it was the same knob which i turned on the first day i came...but it fell out and so i did not dare touch it again...
19) the keyboard here has y and z interchanged...and also addition keys like ü ä ö...so if i tzpe and mz words become like this u will understand whz...
