    11.11.

    Kölle Alaaf!
     
    Two days ago "Karneval" started!!!! Yeah! So, for everybody, who's not so sure what it is..well, it's not as in Rio de Janeiro. In Germany, and especially the Rhine-area, we celebrate it for 6 days in February. I think there are soem pictures online from last year. Anyway, we call it the "5th season", and the "5th season" starts on the 11.11. at 11.11am, and last until the burning of the "nubbel" on karneval-tuesday at midnight.
     
    Anyway, I think the 11.11. is a bit weird, cuz nobody is really "carnevalistic" yet.. But every year I'm suprised how many grown-up people get totally crazy and start dressing up and get totally drunk, singing weird songs only people in this region know and can understand - most of them are sung in the Cologne dialect. Had a lot of fun!!!! Drank a bit too much too fast though, so I went home and apparently missed the best part.
     
    Right, have to go...

    The Bet

    Herro!!!!
     
    Somebody complained that I don't update this thing, so I gonna write a bit now. I confess that I've been bad with updating, but my stupid laptop is still broken. Actually, we tried to make it a bit faster and then it just got some problems. Can't explain it though, so I won't try.
     
    Anyway, I have  a bit time right now, have to work at 8pm, so until I gonna write a bit until then..
     
    Actually, there is not so much to tell. I mean...yeah..there was a wedding, but I gonna write about that as soon as I have some pictures to put online with it. The best thing was the car..... anyway...
     
    Ähhhh..ja..I'm kinda confused right now. Stupid jelly-shots!
    But I wanted to make something public:
    The Bet
    Joshy and me decided that it was about time to quit smoking. But as both of us like to smoke - a lot - we made a bet to ensure that we won't start again. And if we do...well....not a good idea!
    The one of us who just can't do it anymore and smokes has to dye his/her hair either flashy pink or flashy green ( I gonna go for pink, if I lose). But - lets say Josh loses (sorry, Joshy!!!) - , so he starts again, then i can't just start as well. I have to wait another month, otherwise I have to dye my hair, too. Cutting, shaving and cover-all-hair-hats are forbidden... So..whoever wants to quit smoking, I can really recommend this way..
     
    Hmmm..anything else?
    Don't know, seems like I have loads to tell and I'm sure that I just a great idea about what I could write, but I forgot it. Sorry..
     
    Oh - only 6 more days until Cologne Carneval officially starts again!
    Kölle Alaaf!!!!!!
