Assorted

Yesterday and today seemed like a collage of things. Assorted. Compartmentalised.

There was YC's birthday; probably our last time at Hongkong restaurant. One of our favourite haunts definitely. Come to think of it, why didn't XL take photo with the lao2 ban3?!?!? Made YC a cake AND a card, hope he liked it :P It's funny how innovative people can get when u wanna do "clandestine" activities: passing a textbook to ask questions with the card behind then the person would act knowledgeable, after writing and says "Yah that's correct.." (JL dun even do engineering...) or messaging the person 5 metres away to say to go toilet, or trying to get a knife from a kitchen... Great fun HAHA
And where are the other photos ahz XL? The one with the heavily aroused YC!?!? And those with the single candle? Haha... Schnell schnell LOLX

Meine erste muendliche Pruefung was not so bad actually, though I think I totally freaked out before the exam. I had to calm my nerves down so much. The lecturer was nice b4 and after the exam but NOT during the exam. He looked so exasperated everytime I couldn't answer what he wanted me to; some of his questions were a bit vague siahz: after a series of questions about the structure of a protein (bio and physical aspects), he went on to say "What if I throw a protein in a solution, what will happen to a protein??" zzzzz... That is like how vague can? I mean anything can happen to it what? I poke around the question, and all the while I thought it was on proteins!! Until suddenly I got so fed up, I just spouted "It will move." It seemed to have hit the correct nerve.... zzzz.... I was so 'gek' when the question that seems so 'protein' turned out to be a question on Brownian motion.... His smoke bomb really very powderful....

But generally the only section I couldn't answer well enough were the thermodynamics questions. Haiz... Physics, immer the bane of my life. (the other sections were mostly biological). So I passed. Whew!

Came back. Listening to the National Day songs now. I kindda miss Kit Chan's voice. Seriously himmlisch... The lyrics were ok lahz... Though there was much debate at the dinner table yesterday. Just that I felt I dun really connect to the lyrics lahz.... "Home" (mandarin version) I feel is still THE classic. Kit Chan's voice is always acoustic pleasure.

Jug and Rug and Glasses and Tupperwares

I woke up to an idiotic message and moronic hornings from this stupid driver. Like as if the construction piling wasn't bad enough.

This message was from this person who was supposed to be my buyer for my jug and rug and she goes on to say that she has bought those over the weekend. She din even apologise or give me a message to tell me she din want my offer anymore, when in the first place she sounded so enthusiastic about them. I had to message her twice over for 2 days, PM her over the forum before she gave me a reply. Fortunately I haven't washed the rug for her yet.... Wanted to do it today. That would have cost extra money from the washing machine at the Wohnheim.

I thought it would have been the right way to just inform people when you have confirmed with the person already. It's just a matter of courtesy. Even if it's just a 1 Euro rug. And jug. So I think it would be a nicer world if people communicate: give Bescheid of things that were discussed and confirmed. You never know how much effort the person is gonna put into the things, or the anxiety or nervousness or whatsoever that comes with it. Just imagine if you were in that person's shoes. At least apologise lahz. That's the least.

Ok people who knows people or are the people who need these items, pls tell me thx

An IKEA rug, 60 x 90 cm

Filter-Jug with an extra unopened brand new filter included

For pictures, pls click the following link:

2 x glasses

2 x blue-capped Tupperwares

If you need to take a look at them, I could post the pictures up. But they are just very normal tupperwares and glasses.

Gewitter 雨的联想


silver lining at Duerfe
Went down to Stustadt today. Went to return Ian his coat and to visit Deen as well. Jari incidentally just arrived!! He came back from Finland!! Oh he looks just the same still haha... So Jari, Deen and Maria, and me went out to have dinner only to be caught in a Gewitter. The kind with flashes of lightning, the kind with torrents (and really I mean torrents of rain), the kind with the sloshing winds and this time the kind with dropping ice pieces, the kind we have been experiencing for the past few nights, the kind that I told myself I was so lucky to be in the balm of my room... Lucky I wrapped my external harddisk in plastic bag...

Reached home, listening to my favourite song now: "In the Sun". Just downloaded the many versions of it by Joseph Arthurs, Michael Stipe and Chris Martin from Coldplay. And reading blogs from Kat, from Xinli, from Ian, from so many people. Then was speaking to Zhang Ning online using Hanyu pinyin (!!!), for about an hour. Jialin called as well. Had a short chat. I suddenly realised, it's gonna be the last time till a very long time later that I am gonna see so many people here. Jari, Maria, Konrad, Guokun, Zhang Ning, Philip, Petya, Jean... The very nice people I have met here, Profs, tutors and all the strangers I met on the streets that talked to me, that conversed with me like we have known each other. Then I remembered, it really is the last time I gonna see Ian, before we all see each other back in Singapore. And even then, we might not be seeing each other very much.

All of a sudden, there was this wave of nostalgia... My heart wrenched... Funny isn't it? I never knew this feeling.

People attachments. Those that make you go all weird and gooey inside. Then you start to remember, as the song rolls on and the photos flashed by, all the outings and mirth that came from it, all the chilling-out at Coffee cafes, all the things we do on the trains, all the late night talks, all the nights when we all just sat there talking about trivialities or not talking at all, just enjoying company of one another...

I think I gonna miss it all. Miss them all. Miss everything.

When we all return to our individual real lives back in Singapore, and get on with our lives, get entangled in our day-to-day hassles, and started to blend into the background, into mere statistics, I wonder, just wonder what will become of these memories. Do they stay deep-rooted, missed, and stay in status quo, or do they grow, gnaw and develop into something else?

For a moment, you don't know whether you want to turn back time or want to go on.

But I guess, it is such moments that make you feel satisfied, feel sweet, feel joyous, feel strong to go on, that you have lived, among friends. That your memory will live in them too. That life is still full of good things after all. A little sad, perhaps that good things dun last as long as you wanted them to be, but they stay good.

To those thoughts, I thank all the people I love and love me in my life. I thank all the close and good friends and strangers that shaped and still shaping my life.

And I am just thankful that I am walking this world with all of you.

Fliegen

Flies.

I thought when I came to Germany, I have gotten rid of their existence.

I hate flies. I hate insects in general. I think they are some of the foulest things around...

And I found them in Germany. In Munich. And they are now flying all over the WG!!

Totally flabbergasted. Totally disgusted. And there are like 10 now sticking to the glass panes of the window outside my room... I just hope they dun fly in. Because seriously I would have to do some Schaedlingsbekampfung on these THINGS.... And I dun wanna waste my precious time on these THINGS.

But flies in Germany are pretty much like those in Australia. Shiny skin, big and definitely stupid. Low reactions as compared to those in SEA. I killed like 2 in the past months, one with my right foot (can you believe it?!?!) and the other one with a used magazine. Really, they are quite predictable once you get the hang of it.

The big ones are usually the dumb ones: move in slowly, they wunt even twitch, unlike their Asian counterparts, then just have to endure the grostesqueness of it all and BRRRACK! EEEEEWWWWW!!!

When I exclaimed at the flies outside my room, Petya showed me the ones in the kitchen..... Seriously. Astounded.

I wonder how Lin Tao can endure them buzzing around his wan3 tan1 (yes he is bao-ing jiaozi) and can still happily SLURP away.... Haiz...

Maybe I can get some photos somehow...

But no way am I opening that door unless IT'S necessary.

Why am I always like up against them? I mean, im Ernst, killing cockroaches at my aunt's place, and now killing flies in Germany. I think we are made to hate each other. To the guts.

If I had wishes, one of them would durchaus be mosquitoes, flies, cockroaches and creepy-crawlies, please all die...

Not scared of them, just felt disgusted by them....

But then again there will the upsetting of the ecologic balance and then the cosmic balance and then blah blah blah....... The entomologists would probably start sending hate mails to me.

JM, the Insectkiller, sounds too much like JM, the Insecticide... Ok I am rambling...

Meine erste Klausur, erster Schein und mein Schnabeltier!!


Wenn jemand sich das Schnabeltier interessiert, kann er in diese Webseite gucken.
Hier gibt es auch einen VIDEO vom Schnabeltier. Ein komisches aber auch ganz tolles Tier!
SAVE THE PLATYPUS!! Although it is no longer endangered, it is still in small numbers...

Dies ist ziemlich komisch, dass die Klausur nichts mit meinem Schnabeltier zu tun, ausser der Fakt dass die beide im gleichen Tag ist.

Sowieso meine erste Klausur sieht normal aus, wie in Singapur, ausser der Fakt dass es nur 4 Personen gibt, wenn normaleweise es so viele Leute in der Vorlesung gab.... Ich hoffe ich kann bestehen. Nicht so schwer, das Paper, aber ich hatte nicht so viel Zeit vorzubereiten...

Konrad und ich haben einen Foto gemacht, draussen der LMUs Rechnerraum. Philip was nicht da. Ich habe gehofft dass wir zusammen im Foto sein koennen. Naja. Ich hoffe Philip ist in Ordnung. Er hatte nicht die Klausur gemacht. Hmmm.... Oh I am so gonna miss them... I think Konrad and I really made such good friends. And he brought his camera!! I thought I had my camera with me. Apparently not. So Konrad bitte schick an mich die Fotos!! I think I gonna miss them so...

Dann kommt mein Schnabeltier Seminar!! Total Katastrophe!! Aber keine Ideen warum ich so froehlich bin!!! HAHA!! LALALALALALALA!! Ich denke die Leute meinen Vortrag nicht ganz verstanden haben, aber es ist ziemlich scheissegal fuer mich... Obwohl ich dachte, dass der besten Vortrag ich gemacht habe. Fuer 20 MIN lang. ZWANZIG!!! Und habe ich so viel vorbereitet, aber alle waren weg von meinem Kopf als ich da war. Total komisch.... Sorry Mel.

I think some of them were wondering why I never use Englisch zu halten. (Oh shit, my mind is really stuck in the Chinese-English-German overlapping zone zzzzzz) I think the Vortrag was bad enough to make one of them leave HAHAHA!! Now why didn't the entire group leave? Then I just would have to present to the Betreuerin.. zzz.. Ok seriously I am quite sad I made one of them leave.... Haiz... But anyway like what Mel said, this is probably the only time I would do a Fachvortrag auf Deutsch, so I decided to give it a shot. THANKS MEL!! For staying up to help me korriegiert alle Fehler in dem Dias und Vortragsskripten. Also oh manz, all the languages gemischt - not so good... zzzzz

But I think the person before me sort of calmed me down; because despite the fact he was German, he was stammering and getting real jittery from the voice and little gestures and pauses everywhere in his Vortrag. I was like "Ok definitely at least you are not gonna freak out and have cold feet like him, are you?" Seriously, I never had problems in presentations in English, let alone going up. But then some doubts start seeping in "But this is in German ya know.." "Heck it lahz. Just go. You dun really understand them during their presentations anyway so now make them dun understand you also!" Hahah Singlish always does the trick :P But seriously I do hope I din screw up THAT badly.. I recorded the presentation actually but my battery went FLAT!! Verdammt.... So I can only offer my powerpoint presentation slides here. Haha... Take a good look manz... My brainchild haha... 20 Slides of GERMAN... Oh mein GOTT!! Kein Wunder, ich habe ein bisschen mit meiner Gedanken im letzten Halbe des Vortrags... But I am really thankful for all who stayed AND ask nice questions. Seriously I appreciate it very much, if you all ever stumble upon this blog. Remember this idiotic Asian who refuses to do his Schnabeltier Biophysik Seminar in Englisch, ja, you are appreciated. Endlich ist das vorbei...

Die Betreuerin sieht zufrieden mit meinem Vortrag aus... haha... Sie hat mir eine 1,3 Note geben! Total quatsch (mein Vortrag ist gar nicht gut), aber wahr. HAHA... Sie hat gesagt dass ausser einige Dias nicht so klar erklaeren, der Vortrag geht, und die Informationen haben alle Aspekten zurueckgelegt. LOLX... Words of consolation for a wounded soul... Oh she is so nice... From the Netherlands... Her German is.... like a German... She would pass of as a German anytime... Haiz.... Always envious to see people with good German. Naja... Wake up... the exams' not over!
So mein erster Schein in Deutschland!! Und erster Vortrag und erste Klausur.. Alle in einem Tag!

BBQ - the last gathering b4 Singapore

I think all of us would agree the BBQ on Thursday was indeed the last major outing that we gonna have b4 we all really seriously MUG for the exams and b4 we all fly back to Singapore.... I always hate that word esp when it's near the exams... It made me seem so... like a non-living thing... MUG wtf!! Whoever came up with the word has a warped sense of humour...

The BBQ was to me, like a re-connection. Deen and Chuanjie came!! Haha, 2 of my best friends. Then it felt so weird to me when now we have so many common topics to talk about when last time we had not that much. It's really amazing!

Then yesterday night my dear 2 friends, Konrad and Philip, at 1230am in the morning are still at LMU computer lab!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is really WTF?!?!? I am so scared to be a Masters student now... They are so SCARY!! And nocturnal... zzzz.... And to all who dunno, Konrad was in NUS for 2 semesters b4 this one. I actually took the same lecture as him for one of the modules and I din know LOLX. How oblivious can I get... Actually, very... haha... But boy am I glad to have known him here, despite going one big round across countries and continents. We sort of hit it off quite well, I guess. And Philip, have you finished your thesis? Good luck on your thesis! You are featured in that scientific magazine!!! Was it a scientific magazine?!?!

GAMBATTE people! The exams are nigh, but so are the post-exams...

Ok I am getting overdose of mugging and getting real cranky....

Ok, so for the benefit of Konrad, das ist was du verpassen hast haha, click here for the PHOTOS!

I am not focusing... I regret not going to the library with Chong Wee now... Ok tmr tmr... Tmr I will go haha...

And I am into Grey's Anatomy again... Off all times have to be exam period... And I totally adore this song. So I put up the lyrics for all to enjoy:

In the Sun
Joseph Arthur

I picture you in the sun wondering what went wrong
And falling down on your knees asking for sympathy
And being caught in between all you wish for and all you seen
And trying to find anything you can feel that you can believe in

May god's love be with you
Always
May god's love be with you

I know I would apologize if I could see your eyes
'cause when you showed me myself I became someone else
But I was caught in between all you wish for and all you need
I picture you fast asleep
A nightmare comes
You can't keep awake

May god's love be with you
Always
May god's love be with you

'cause if I find
If I find my own way
How much will I find
If I find
If I find my own way
How much will I find
You

I don't know anymore
What it's for
I'm not even sure
If there is anyone who is in the sun
Will you help me to understand

'cause I been caught in between all I wish for and all I need
Maybe you're not even sure what its for
Any more than me

May gods love be with you
Always
May gods love be with you

29th July - 1st July - Budapest 三人行

More photos click here.. ALBUM 1 2 3 4 Because the amount of photos is too many, I suggest you control click to open in another tab, or just right click and put them to another page.

This is definitely one of the best trips yet... Sorry it took so long to blog in my entry for this beautiful city of beautiful people (yeah manz, beauties everywhere)...

Budapest is indeed the Queen of the River Danube. And if u all remember 熊天平's 爱情多瑙河, then yahz this is it. Thermal baths, gargantuan statues, citadels, castles and bridges, they got it all. Plus, they got beautiful people to boot :P Seriously, willowy ones. Woot!

XL, CJ and me.... I think this is our second trip together. First was to Salzburg. And I think the three of us really make a good team. One of the most enjoyable trips ever. I especially like how 3 of us can gel together so seamlessly, with our seemingly so different personalities.

I was flipping through the photos and I LOVE them. Think they were the best photos of ALL the trips I have taken so far. We did so many crazy things haha!! XL and CJ are superb choreographers and photographers haha!! So many nice shots of us. Seriously CJ, we should have just bought the camera stand at the Mediamarkt. And our lame-city seriously maxed out after the oh-so-soothing thermal baths! Our 成语 game seriously... Both of you ganging up against me lorz... Seriously... I will not forfeit one!! No, never! And of course, our late nights talks haha.... What lies within the 4 walls there, stays there ahz....

Like a verification of my theory once again, it's the people that counts... Like what XL said, the chemistry was there, and definitely not due to our budding chemist. I am so glad I have re-found 2 good friends :P

I think years down the road, when I think back, this is definitely one of those memories, I would cherish for the rest of my life.

So much for being a Science student...

In deep shit...

4 exams and 1 seminar next week.

Now I am seriously considering doing the seminar in English.

I am so so screwed...

Sunday, July 8, 2007

Amazing..

Everybody's blogging about their flight back, their exams, end of the month, so on blah blah. Starting to feel kindda nostalgic liaoz even though I dint before.

Then saw this quote of the day. It got me thinking, my days here in Munich, has been amazing too. It's probably the shortest period of time I got to know so many people and from so many lands, for that matter.

It's amazing a few people just come together and speak a little and just click. The right words and the right gesture, that's all. Sometimes you dun feel that it's enough but the feeling is just right and that hunch stays right there, not budging. Then you will recognise them, remember them, and go back to them, no matter where you are. Sometimes, it's almost like family.

Well, and I realise there are some people that just wouldn't, no matter how much effort is put in, click.

I am so glad I came on this trip.

Fuer meine Freunde um der Welt: finde die Leute dass dein Freude bringen kann...
For my friends around the world: may you find the souls that bring you joy...


Among those whom I like or admire,
I can find no common denominator,
but among those whom I love, I can:
all of them make me laugh.
- WH Auden

JMLeftBrain: Seriously, I think I need to study. Especially when everything's gonna come crashing down on me in 2 weeks' time....

JMRightBrain: There is always this 'but' that hangs around you and wunt go away when u want it to. Although it merely sounds like the 'butt', it seriously is an asshole... zzzzz.... BUT can I just take a break?

JMlb: Reap what you sow manz.

JMrb: I wanna believe in that but somehow, at the current status I am going, I would rather I reap what I didn't sow as well... Sighz.... And seriously it IS the last day with my speakers. So I have the excuse to listen to it the entire day right?

Cos seriously, I love my CREATIVE speakers too much... boohoo... I seriously think I am gonna cry. *sobz* So pls can I take a break?

JMlb: ...

Jieming: So now, heck the studying and enjoy the music!

**Martina is gonna be so freaked out by her unglaublichen Nachbarn!**

both by the monologue and the blasting..

220607 - 260607 - Paris - Truly the City of Lights










Paris is truly one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Seriously. The City of lights, the dream city of half the people in the world and the city you must visit at least once in your lifetime. Despite its messiness, dirtiness, disorganisation, and the confusing train system, the city is definitely worth your while. It is not the most visited city in the world for nothing. Well, at least it was on top of my own most-want-to-travel list.

There are just too many things to see and explore. I spent 3 days there and I did not get to finish all of the things there.

First day I arrived there, Jiajun came to welcome me. It was a touching reunion *sobz*... boohoo... LOLX... He was one of my good friends back in Singapore and boy am I glad to see him. We caught up with alot of things, while keeping an eye on the arcane train system, which instructions and announcements were all worded in French. JJ doesn't have a very good command of French, so yahz.... Anyway, we arrived safely at his hostel in the suburbs of the Paris. Pretty secluded but a nice place all the same.

Second day CW and Yucheng came over for the Paris Air Show. Wanted to smoke into JJ's summer school's excursions haha but failed, so then joined CW and YC at the air show. Had free breakfasts though, from then on. HAHA... So I managed to smoke quite a bit... Asians all look the same to them anyway... The Paris Air Show was not my cup of tea after all. But the air demonstration was an eye-opener indeed. Of course, the main attraction was the Airbus, which was to replace Boeing 747. After the air show, we went to their hotel. Yes, they booked a hotel room! LOLX... Then, we headed separately to meet our friends before coming back together again with Shangcai. The night activity together was walking towards the 19th-century Eiffel Tower, which seriously did not let me down. I was totally in awe at the night view of the Tower. We took so many pictures of the Eiffel Tower!! From there, we took a train and went down to the famous shopping street of Champ-Elysees, with boutiques the likes of Louis Vuitton and Gucci on one side and moviehouse the likes of Lido. At the end of the street stood, conveniently, the eminent napoleonic Arc de Triomphe at the centre of the biggest roundabout in the world. Magnificent by day and night, it faces the Obelisk, which was a gift to the Parisians by the Egyptians, in a straight line. Then we walked to the acclaimed Louvre Museum, glorified by the Da Vinci Code, and graced by the famous Leonardo painting of Mona Lisa. Of course, the night view was another mesmerizing picture with its day's counterpart. The pyramids were indeed a unique architectural spectacle.

At the end of it all, we bid farewell, and I went back to my friend's hostel only to find the last train does not head back to my friend's stop! At the end of it all, I actually had to 'hike' 15 minutes, cold and lonely, with only the map in my camera (:P), back to the hostel. And at the hostel, I have no keys to go in, I have to act as though I left my keys with somebody in the hostel and smoke (yet again) my way through. As again, all Asians look alike anyway.

The next day was more organised. I went into the Louvre. And seriously, that bloody place is so damn big. I was told that if you were to look at every single thing in the Louvre, you will never finish even half of it in a day. Well, see what you wanna see: the sculpture of Venus de Milo and Mona Lisa; they were the only things I recognised. Take photos, talk later... if u know what i mean... And seriously I couldn't spend my entire day just walking the Louvre. Next up I brushed by Grand Palais, Petit Palais, Les Invalides, which houses the tomb of Napoleon, and finally ended up at another of the Big Three (Eiffel, Arc), Notre Dame de Paris. I went in just when there was a service going on. And the music and singing resonance reverberated like the voices of the heavens. I just spend my rest of the day immersing in the acoustics.

The last day in Paris brought me first to the town of Versailles to see the renowned Palace of Versailles. THE palace perfected by Louis XIV of France and many palaces in Europe sought to mimic its splendour. Unfortunately for me, they are closed on Mondays... zzzzz... So I could only visit the Garden, which was so big that people require a golf car to traverse it!! I travelled on foot... thx... After that I went on to see CBD-equivalent commercial district of Paris: Le Defence. Over there the Grand Arche, caught my attention immediately. Another architectural wonder, and from the Arche, the entire district creates this very nice modern skyscraper landscape, that presents another facet of Paris. Next was Luxembourg Palace, which was absolutely nothing as compared to the Versailles. Then the Pantheon, it's the Paris counterpart of the London Westminster Abbey, just grander (in my opinion) in architecture and interior design. Next up was a visit to the Moulin Rouge. Which really disappointed me because it was nothing I have imagined; it was just like any other club, just made famous internationally. Or maybe I did not go in to check out, that's why. At long last, I specifically saved my last stop at the Eiffel Tower. This time round, to climb it.

And boy am I so lucky. I actually saw a complete arc of rainbow when I reached the second level of the tower. A complete arc of rainbow across the city of Paris. Brilliant.
So you might have guessed that it was raining, so i decided not to go up to the top, which incidentally cost an additional 3.70 Euros. Nonetheless, the rainbow folded up my trip in Paris on a very wondrous note.
Life is really still full of wonderful things, isn't it?

210607 - The Gathering





Disclaim:
The story below is not targeted at anybody or anything under any circumstances, emotions and time. I repeat and re-emphasise that what is to come is for fun and laughter, peace and joy, of the common people of middle Earth, fairies and orcs and in-betweens alike. The author does not hold responsible for any consequences unto the text.

The fellowship of the ya-ya brothers-and-sisters-hood gathered around the table of Duelfer-lot and started their last supper of the month together. Our King Arth-Wee has called upon the knights of the Order of the Ruegen-Munix for a little gathering and also to bid our Queen Guine-ying farewell on her final voyage back to the ends of the world, in the land called Singapore, where pirates swoon about the seas called the Internet. It has been dark times. Hence, it was certainly no small task of bringing these great heroes together, from all over the Land, better known as Deutsch-Earth, as they embarked on their journeys of valour in this Land and beyond. Their legends known far and wide...

The house-elf, Dob-ming, bound to the master and the house unfortunately, toiled to wash the toilets and bathrooms above all things, to prepare the Duelfer-lot castle for the arrival of the guests. Through the Pelantir, he made a list of what the guests were to bring as well…

"I shall come forth and feed thou with my fried rice and of course we shall make merry and be merry," commented our merry man (and lady), Wilson and Kat, of the Land of Giants and Hobbits, where both races, thanks to them, have lived in symbiosis for centuries, and many more to come. Legend has it that our giant, Wilson, turns into a giant powerful red pokemon lobster on the concoction called alcohol and Kat, our shrewd and astute impish-hobbit, attacks valiantly through an AGM with razor blade words and needles of recommendations.

"Your rice is venomous! I shall call upon the powers of my magic! From the depths of mirth and merryness! Baileys! Come forth!" Grace Weasley, "Bloody hell! Sorry, I hexxed my transmutation spell again! But never mind, they look the same anyway, just tear away the label, cannot tell right?"

>>>“I think it should be ‘merriness’ not ‘merryness’…” “A spell no need to be spelt correctly one...” “Then why is it called a ‘spell’?” “Oh shut up! Get on with it.”

"And me with my salad, from my humble Garden of Eden. Hail the King and Queen of
Duelfer-lot!" As wisely spoken from our wise-woman Professor Jialin-sprout. The brain-child of the Land had devoted time to the philosophies of nuclear magnetic resonance and their long term effects on her vegetables in the Garden Synchrotron.

"I come with fruits and pastries from the Elven Enchanted Woods of Theriesen-wald," whispered Mel-wen, the evening star of our elven brethren of Middle Earth. It had so been said that Mel the Anie is not afraid anything under the sun, but freaks out under the powerful Chinese words of the White Wizard of the Erlangen Tower.

The night would not be total without the presence of our sea-goddess, Xinlip-to. Recently been released from the sea of the dead where existed the warped timeline of “Today is tomorrow”, she could easily think about the time of today as tomorrow totally. She is famous for her one-time vanishing act in the Battle of Cinema that she did not turn up, (rumoured to have disappeared into a million crabs). She brought fish. Probably caught when she was in her thousand-crab form.

>>>Oh crap! Erratum!! Sorry “million-crab” form.

"And I, from StuStadt School of Magic and Wizardry, shall enchant the evening with Frikadelle - made from the very essence of The Cabbage and a piece of the legendary Dragon. Of which, was slain by our bravest of all warriors.
