Shower. Well I love showering but yesterday was a mess.
During this refreshing event, we had a shortcircuit and a blackout followed right after it. So, I was like “WTF” and continued showering in the dark. Since my hair got really long and the weather suddenly got really really cold in Germany, its a pain in the ass to airdry my hair (I really dont want to catch a cold here…). BUUUUT! no electricity, no hairdryer. 
Oh well but luckily some guy came over to fix the mess so its ok. But showering in the dark is really… well I have never did that before. Definitely worth noting down haha!
Later I visited my friends at the new GameOne Headquarters. Actually they moved to another buero, but its still the same area, so I dont think that counts. be it 2km from the station to the west, or to the east, its both the same 
Ever eaten a schnitzel at a greek? I did. Just yesterday and it was ok! even greek can cook good vienna schnitzel haha ! ! !
EDIT: If you eat for free and drink for free, and as much as you like (not just coke and pizza, I mean really high classy stuff; wine etc), would you complain? duh….

Well, my apprenticeship is over. OVER! Seriously
2 months has been a long time but how time flies! I’ve learned
alot, and was pretty sad after leaving the guys on wednesday
evening. It was a great time and maybe we can work
together next year as well! Definitely keeping in touch
with those guys.
FABLE II, my new game for the xbox 360, is rather odd. Graphics
are hot and gameplay is pretty easy though with alot of depth, still
it doesn’t get me hooked badly. Really, is that good or bad?
Maybe I just have to play a bit longer (but “Armored
Core 4:for answer” looks hella good too! Maybe I’m more into the
Mech-Action-Thing. Probably. :p).
Eventhough the apprenticeship is over, I can’t rest at all, which is
good! (well in a way haha) All of a sudden I got a call from Mone at
around 9am, where she asked me if its possible for me to participate
at a local fashion show. Of course 
. Those a lot of fun, eventhough its
my second. Nonetheless I arrived a little later than planned since I was
collecting my stuff for the visa application, and started rehearsing the
walk til around 4pm (?!?!). Afterwards there was just the fitting for the
clothes and I’m really psyched about tomorrow! 
Gonna be a blast.
(Val, you are definitely missing some real good stuff ;p ).
Still I lack a dresser for tomorrows’ show so.. it might be a bit stress-y.
ROCK ON!

2 days left! Then I’ll have to prepare for some other projects and
really need to get my ass off to work harder for the things I really
want to do. Really, I have never imagined those past 2 months to be
that stressful! BUT it was worth the hassle. Seems everybody at work
will be on vacation for 1 month, maybe even longer. So do I, but
lets continue the Berlin-vacation thing
Berlin was damn cold! A thing I just realized after arriving at Hamburg.
Eventhough I wore like about 3 layers of clothing, double socks and
gloves + scarf, I was freezing like hell. Especially after Valerie got home.
ALREADY 4 YEARS (!?!), since we met the last time in Düsseldorf.
Occasionally we tried to meet up, but that was kinda followed by bad luck
and awful planning-skills haha!
With her help I was able to find MTV’s location pretty easily, because her
school (ESMOD) is located near MTV. After I delivered the tapes, we met in
Zoologischer Garten and had a nice dinner at “Vapianos”. Some food, drinks
and a nice talk.
Afterwards we decided (well actually SHE) to take a look at H&M current
collection, where she got herself a nice black sweater for.. well males.
I think guys dig girls who wear male stuff. Well I do. HAHA.
Later on we grabbed some coffee at a local bar, which was pretty nice.
The barista was even able to create some sort of latte art on my cappucino.
Great stuff, since there arent alot baristas in Hamburg, who regularly
do “latte art”. WE NEED MORE LATTE ART BARISTAS! FOR GOODNESS SAKE!
At the end of the day, I got her back home and we had .. well, another cup
of coffee (instant one for me this time 
and oolong tea for valerie? not
sure though). Never been to her flat before, so it was a nice change of
enviroment . Though the kitchen is very… VERY small. I like it though.
We had a small talk and then I left for good this time. Thanks for
taking some time off for me I really appreciate it
