The Falsifying Advertisement

First of all, alert! alert! there is no wifi at Maldives airport everyone! WHATTT!! *shocked! They have free wifi but you need to register with your local number which is of course we don’t buy it so I can’t tell my sister where I will wait for them, the airport is small btw so you can’t be lost unless! you were not waiting on the arrival hall nor on the place where you said you would be 😉 HA! I said to my sister that I will wait them at Starbucks or some cafe shop to have the wifi and so on bbuuuuutttt I was on the lounge 😉 so there was a bit of hide and seek part between me and my sister but she was the one that seek me more and me, I’m just hiding under the cold AC with cookies, fruits and wifi from the lounge 😉 haha but long story short, we were able to found each other 😉

And we met the driver that took us to our hotel called h78, the hotel was nice, right in front of the beach. Btw this is not the resort yet, we went to the city called Hulhumale. The receptionist of this hotel is a woman from Nepal. My sister knew that this hotel provide the city tour and we wanted to go there but when we arrived the city tour has finished and we were kind of sad but the woman told us that we can go by ourselves and she gave us the map of where to go and what can we see there. We became enthusiast when we heard her explaining the touristic places. There are parliament building, city garden restaurant, presidential jetty and park, sultan mosque, souvenir shop and fish market and she suggested us to take taxi to the park and then walk around and that’s exactly what we will do!

The taxi driver named Ahmad came and he became our “tour guide” by saying this building is Maldives bank, ministry of foreign affairs building, jetty blablabla. But during the way to our Presidential Park, he suddenly stopped in the middle of the road, take a bottle of water, get out of the taxi to the sidewalk, rinse his mouth and came back. We were confused if he is fasting or what but yeah nobody knows what is going on with him….. Anyway we arrived to the one that called “park”. I was like…this doesn’t seems like a presidential park and I said that we want to go to the presidential park and he said “oh this presidential park is behind the mosque” and he dropped us there. Before we got off he asked how long we will be here and I said maybe 3 hours and he said “No, it’s too long. Everything here is so small only 500m walking distance, 1 hour is enough” I was like hmmmmm this is such different energy from the receptionist and the driver.

And here is the Presidential Park, they have the what so called “Fountain Bridge” which is…. See it by yourselves people 😉 the fountain was just like this and this height, doesn’t go any higher and the lights are blue, green and red ahahaha

They have a unique swing and a man-made tree.

Then this is the Sultan Mosque, Jetty and another park which has many birds and the ministry of foreign affairs 😉

The souvenir shops was not appealing at all, because all the shops are darks so we didn’t go there. And the highlight was the so called artificial beach. Our receptionist said many people take pictures of this artificial beach and I was just curious how did they make the artificial beach in the middle of the city? And here it is people! Hahaha

See the sand, the salt water aka beach and then see those rocks act as a border between the artificial beach and the sea and the sea! haha

So…..the winner of this city tour explanations goes to the driver! Hahaha the way the driver explained everything to us was very simple and the way it is. But it is still good that we visited this city, because we got to know the places otherwise we will be curious about how the city will looks like and no wonder why the city tour already finished by the time we arrived there, I mean….there’s not much things to see anyway hahaha 😉

But we got to know that the people that we met in Hulhumale they all are very friendly and helpful and they can speak English! Wohooo so this makes our life easier haha and time goes really slow here #times goes by so slowly, times goes by so slowly lalalalalla by Madonna.

Next day we will go to the resort! To the real Maldives where you will see on google or any other search engine when you type Maldives. THIS BETTER BE GOOD! 😉

The “Nightmare” Before Christmas

HO HO HO this Santa Claus laugh almost changed to Hu Hu Hu or Hiks Hiks Hiks crying voice for me hahahaha I really need to have some drama juussttttt before Christmas to make this movie title more real in life haha 😉

It all started with the very not prepare trip from my side, me and my family will meet up in Maldives for Christmas and then we will move to Bangkok and Phuket until beginning of January. My part was buy ticket for myself, going to Maldives and return from Phuket, my sister bought the middle part which is Maldives to Bangkok and Bangkok to Phuket. She will take bus from Canberra to Sydney, and then flight from Sydney to Singapore and Singapore to Maldives. My parents will take flight from Jakarta to Singapore and Singapore to Maldives. I think both me and my sister are getting lazy to check each other so we just gooooooo and when I was otw to airport I texted her to send me the other flight ticket, but she only sends me flight ticket from Bangkok to Phuket and she send it twice so she thought she also already send me the Maldives to Bangkok one and then maybe she went to sleep right after due to she’s been travelling far enough hahaha.

And when I was waiting to check in I just suddenly think “hmmmm do I need visa to transit in Sri Lanka?” and I checked on the internet and for Indonesian they need to have the travel authorization….I’m not sure about transit though…. therefore I called AGGY! haha but she didn’t pick up the phone and the waiting line got shorter and shorter and I panicked haha she was on the Christmas Eve party so of course she won’t check her phone so I texted on the group “Aggy! Pick up the phone!” hahaha the panic side of me started to use every way to be able to reach her. But she was able to calm me down by saying as far as she knew, it was only Canada that needed visa even for transit, so fiuhhh okay. First drama finished 🙂

Second drama started when the check in counter guy didn’t let me check in because I don’t have the flight out of Maldives. And I can’t call my sister using WA so I called my mom using wechat but she didn’t pick up *nervous stage 1. Then I called Aggy again to ask if she can call my dad’s Indonesian number unfortunately her phone cannot do that but since she was on a party so I asked her “can you ask somebody from the party if anyone can do that?” and she just shout “does anyone of you can make international call?” and someone saidd yes! and that someone was Hutch! yeayyy! Then I got another report from Aggy “the number is not valid” whoaaaaa *nervous stage 2! I gave her my father’s other number and she tried again but still 0 answer.

Thorben asked me “what is going on?” sorry bro, your little sister is in the middle of something! hahaha. Then I asked Gordy to call my sister on WA but she still didn’t pick up and his phone will run out of battery soon so he cannot call my sister anymore! *nervous stage 3. In the meantime while me, Aggy and Gordy kept calling my family member, the other Indian passenger looked at me and asked am I OK and I said NO! how do I look like OK hahaha I asked him “can you do international phone call?” and he said yes! sooo….the last candidate that I called using an Indian guy’s phone was…..my sister’s boyfriend hahaha! It was maybe 2AM in Australia but yeah I’m in panic hahaha and obviously he didn’t pick up either *facepalm.

In the end it was 23:07 and there was a ticketing guy that said “maybe you can buy again the ticket” I was like duhhhh! why I didn’t think of that! hahaha so I said to the check in counter guy that I will buy a new ticket and come back to you, and he said “but you need to do it latest 11:20 otherwise you will be late” and I ran with this ticketing guy to the counter ticket and I said “please buy me the cheapest ticket as I won’t use it anyway” hahahaha and then voilaaaaa! the additional ticket was printed, and I ran through the immigration. The immigration was only 1 opened and there was 2 people infront of me I felt like rrrgghhhhh this is just like in the movie “in time” when you just keep running otherwise you’ll running out of time and then security check and gate! woghhhh I finished the security check just in time when they start boarding…fiuhhh such an exercise on Xmas Eve 😉

Time to report then to everyone hahaha I called Aggy again to say that I’m safe now and because she’s my big sister she’s also panic and she texted my father saying “Hi this is Marlyn’s friend. Please ask your first daughter to call your second daughter” hahaha thanks God she didn’t mention anything about the ticket to my father 😉 otherwise it will be a longggg lecture about how to do travel preparation blah blah blah hahaha #sorry dad! I learned from my lesson, next time I will print every flight ticket and hotel reservations! *determined emoji.

I said to Thorben that I just started a TV soap opera involving Aggy but of course he wouldn’t understand so I called him to explain haha what so not German I am. And then I texted Gordy to said that I finally boarding and I saw the Indian guy again and he was glad that I made it to the plane haha I also said thanks to him.

After that I still asked Aggy can you do me the travel authorization for Sri Lanka, I give you my passport info hahaha and she said “no it’s too late, you will arrive in the morning anyway” hahaha true though and she said “how could you…” with 3 dots haha 3 dots is the official way to say that she doesn’t have any more words to say to me anymore mwahaha sorry sister! I’m in panic 😉

On the bright side…..seems this “nightmare” only happened before Christmas because now is Christmas day wohoooo! and the flight went really well, the service from Srilankan Airlines was really good, they continuously gave me water while I watched the movie without even me asking for it, they have a very tasty small biscuits and the cutest animation of the flight 😉 and I sat on the aisle just in front of the bathroom so I don’t need to wait in the line for going to the loo…nice!!!

My university friends called me 麻烦玲 (my chinese name is 李房玲-Li Fang Ling) they said because I 经常给人家麻烦 (often bother other people) hahaha and it might be right at this point, but ONLY this point 😉

Then I arrived Sri Lanka, transit and fly to Maldives.  And while on transit, my sister replied to me saying “I’ve already sent you the ticket” and I said “both of them was from Bangkok to Phuket” and she said “F#!k me” hahaha but it’s OK now the situation is under coonnntrooollllll 😉 besides, if nothing happened the night before Xmas, I won’t have this story anyway 😉

Now, everything went well, I arrived first and in next 3 hrs my sister and parents arrive so I treat myself by relaxing on the lounge, taking shower, have some snacks and life is good again! hahaha not that it was bad before, not at all but at least I can chill now 😉

Marlyn already chill

Besides, there is no movie called Nightmare during or after Christmas right? hahaha

The Diary of Marlyn Praseli

The Diary of Marlyn Praseli only for Marina Kern! Yes, you Kern! hahaha I wanted to write “Yes, we Kern!” just like the photo frame on your home but then between me and you, the Kern is only you haha so I changed the “we” to  “you” got it got it? 😉

This is the things that both of us like! FOOD! *droollingggggg 😀 But of course sometimes I eat with the customer and I cannot really take picture ya because I need to behave! hahahaha so far this is the max pictures that I can documented 😉

Starter!!! We need to have Schnitzel! However, the first meal I had in Germany wasn’t German food but Turkish food as lunch ahahaha 😉 so I haven’t officially arrived German unless I had the Schnitzel haha but the Turkish food was good also, so can’t complain 😉 In Oberammergau I had some meat with potato salad, it should be a typical German food which is good also! So I don’t mind to postponed the Schnitzel until dinner 😉

Next! We moved to Poland, the city called Ustron. The highlight of Ustron was when I braved myself to eat someting called Osobuco which means knee haha and I tried the knee of the deer, I didn’t expect it’s gonna be this big!

I sent the picture to Marina and her comment was “the potato looks good” ahahha don’t you see the deer knee hellooooo lady?! Aggy comment was “It looks good, just like what we had back home, oxtail soup” Well, ladies and gents this is the moment you’ve been waiting for (hahaha suddenly remember one the soundtrack of this is the greatest showman movie) the taste was rather unique I will put it this way, but if I got a chance to do it again, I probably would choose other food hahaha so hope you got the point 😉 wink wink, no offence to all the deer knee fans out there #if there is any hahaha!

Besides this deer knee, we also had dumplings the polish name will be Pierogi which is good! The decoration of the restaurant itself is really good, it’s like the Victorian style kind of haha it’s not special in polish food but more like a fusion. We also had some polish  special shot kind of which sorry but I prefer Jagermeister more 😉 hahaha

In the office, we have Lukas that made a corn flakes with chocolate wogghhh Amazing! I always eat this when I was a kid with sprinkles and stuff so this is goood! and Julia made a vegetable train toottt tooottt! I thought its called hummus but its not, she searched it on linguee the translation of how it’s called but yeah I don’t even remember it haha.

We also had doner kebab like 10 mins driving from office, the portion is big and it’s owned by a Turkish guy (supposedly) hahaha but somehow I found the entrance to the restaurant looks like a prison haha and this is where Lukas hurried me up so he appeared on my pictures HA!

I had the very typical kebab doner with beef 😉 the decoration of this restaurant is very unique even though it looks like a prison from the outside but the inside is they have many ornaments of BVD football club.

As Christmas is around the corner so some restaurant has their own Christmas dinner specialty and I ordered the goose leg 😉 haha it was soooo good! After the dinner, our colleague order a very cute desert 🙂 the hearts and hats of the snowman was the most delicious one (hmmm sounds like a psycho 😉 ) and they also had pocky! my childhood snacks hihihi

Then before we visited Dortmund Christmas Market, we had Italian dinner, with Italian food, it really hard to go wrong. In this restaurant they had a very fancy sparkling water bottle haha, Italian, always with style 😉

And then at Xmas Market, I had Gluehwein but Julia got a Cocoa with some alcohol inside, if I’m not mistaken it’s called lamomba or something like that and turns out it’s better! I didn’t know it, I only know if on Xmas then Gluehwein is a must, maybe because they don’t have Cocoa with alcohol here so that’s why I didn’t order, but next time I know what I should order haha

After 2 weeks of Western food, the Asian part of me came out haha, we had Japanese lunch at Dusseldorf where then I bought my Yves Rocher cosmetics stocks for a year hahaha. The restaurant called Yasabe, it was a small restaurant but always packed! or maybe because the size restaurant itself is small? haha but anyway the food was yummy slurp slurp!

What is more surprising is that in Dusseldorf I found many mobikes around! but the style are different than what we have here in Shanghai, and I just wonder if I can open the mobike and turns out yes I can open it! But then I forgot the size of European and Asian are very much different, I already adjusted the seat to the very low but I cannot touch the ground, my foot was maybe 15 cm above the ground and it simply hard for me just to get on the bike itself 🙁 pfff I need to locked it again and it charged me 7.8 RMB I forgot that Euro is so expensive hahaha!

Before saying goodbye to Germany, I need to have another proper German food and the last meal that I had was a very nice beef! I google translate the main menu and it was beef something but it came with salad and so on and the salad came first and I was like “where’s the beef” hahaha I didn’t pay attention to the sides other than beef but then the beef came with potatoes, I just need to relax 😉

So Marina…. here it is! the food documents that are able to be documented, of course there were many snacks, beers and other food that I didn’t take picture of, I don’t want to surprise you with what kind of food and beverages I had in Germany hahaha.. but I’ll give you some sneak peek 😉 continue scrolling!

Then…. time to say…. Hello to Shang Hai!

P.S: I haven’t had cheese cake so far 😉

Cathay Pacific will take me back to Shanghai 🙂

Thank You Germany!..and Poland and Milano…well thanks EU!

In this December, I got a very nice opportunity to go to Germany again for 2 weeks. I mean, December, cold winter… what can I ask for more, it’s literally the best things for someone that came from tropical country to be able to experience winter in Europe, that’s just exemplary! *4 thumbs up!

Even though this 2 weeks was a business trip, but we managed to have some free and fun time 😉 like come on, it’s Germany yo! it’s not like I can go there every time I want, besides who can go to Europe as much as they like?! So, better seize the moment! 😉

We also visited customer in Milano and Ustron-Poland so wohooo I stepped my feet to 3 different countries within this 2 weeks that’s AWESOME! 😀

As always we will fly to Frankfurt but then we went to Oberammergau! I found this name is very funny haha and turns out they have the tounge twister for Oberammergau, Marina texted me in afternoon (SH time) which is morning (DE time) and when I heard of it I was like whattt?! that’s really scary tounge twister haha! it might be because she said it pretty fast but when Thorben write it down it wasn’t as scary as before. This show the comparison of real German and someone who tried to speak German hahaha!

And then meeeee!!!

It was mostly rainy Germany but then in Oberammergau the rain changed to SNOW!! This is the best feeling ever! Snowing in Europe! It’s just like seeing on the TV shows where the snow fall down from the sky and then I finally can feel it, super!

Then we drive down to Milano, 5 hours drive, we passed the Alps the view is breathtaking but the downside is the road really had many detour and I got really sick so I need to take a break first otherwise there would be another type of perfume on the car hahaha 😉

Next, we say hello to Katowice Airport-Poland! We visited one city called Ustron, the weather was sooooo wintery in terms of really cold but super cool! a quiet touristic place, the air is very clean and it’s just nice there!

Finally back again to where all the vibes begin, Germany! We watched double game! Football and Basketball. One win and one lost. Leverkusen won 1-0 against I don’t even know who hahaha and Telekom Bonn lost against again I don’t know haha. Thanks to Stefan for showing your fans club it was a really nice place with good food and good people even though I don’t speak German haha. I think this time was better than on March because Tom was there! 😀

Tom was very cute for the whole time, he was playing football game on phone while we were on Red Black Lion fans club and he kept shouting drei-null and then up to acht-null haha. On the stadium, he was also worried about the performance of Leverkusen, I secretly took picture of him 😉

At first I thought that he doesn’t want me to take selfie with him but after I found out that he was OK then all the selfies started hahaha but he always stick out his tounge hahaha funny Tom! As you can see maybe he got bored haha look at his face degradation 😉 Tom is such a sweet boy! <3 When Leverkusen finally scored a goal, I wanted to have high-5s with him but he was eating his pretzel and he put down his pretzel and then gave me high-5s, such a polite boy.

While on basketball match, the atmosphere is not as crazy as football but it’s still very vivid to watch! They had the cheerleader, singer, game for kids etc.

Besides the game, I somehow met “Chloe Moretz” made in Germany 😉 she looks really similar!

I also met another kid, Lisa! She is very calm and such a sweet bigger sister to her brother Bruno. We made some things, idk what it’s called… but we put it one by one, they have the moulding and I don’t speak German, she doesn’t speak English but we managed to communicate what color to put on and how many pieces haha we made 2 of it and in the end we were making a truck but her mom called her out to go to bed and she just said “Tschuess” and went up, very sweet! either she’s very obedience or she’s bored with me hahaha but I choose the obedience one 😉 While Bruno was going to bed with a bit upset hahaha! he also made something with this things according to his imagination haha Bruno is so small he’s only 2.5 yo, sooo cute!

Next will be another football match with Lukas! He supports Schalke team and this one is against Moscow, it was a last minute that I decided to go with Lukas and only 1 ticket left so I am very lucky to get it. Here we are!

Lukas has his seasonal ticket so he always get a seat at the same place, the stadium was in Veltins arena and the stadium was very mesmerizing, it is crazy big! There was 48,883 people on the stadium according to the number that showed on the cubes haha I became very German by remembering all the numbers. And here is why I took many pics Lukas! so don’t complaint 😉

For the whole 90 mins game there was nothing still 0:0 but then they had additional 2 mins and Schalke scores after 1 min! and it was such a nice goal and it happened really fast and for sure Lokomotive Moscow’s goal keeper tried his best to catch it but yeah they made it, congratz Lukas!! It was good that Lukas was freezing so we left the stadium after the game otherwise we would have stuck due to the fight that happened 5 mins after we left woghhh!

And because this is the season to be jolly it won’t be complete until we visit the Christmas market 😉 We went to Bonn and Dortmund, it was -1 degree but somehow I wasn’t freezing, cold yeah but it just felt so brilliant! The atmosphere, decoration, food and of course gluehwein 😉

This year can’t get any better 😉

Love Germany…well, EU! If you know what I mean 😉

Until next time 😉

The League Has Spoken

There you go!!! The 3rd round of Hungover League. There were flyers in wechat moments in every players and I will copy the sentence from our Katniss-in Chief Tim 😉 #permission should be allowed haha!

Three weeks of carnage and incredible skill.

Because this is the 3rd league so the stakes are higher and people are getting more and more serious!

Like all the previous leagues, all 6 teams (consist of 7 people each and need to have 2 girls on the team) will have their own team logo and team shirts. I always like the team shirts because they are so creative and so funny in some way.

Thorben was in John’s team and Aggy was in Aaron’s team and mind you that I’m not get chosen for the league so I will be the narrative of this league drama 😉 It’s a win-win anyway, I won’t get hurt and I watched their playing with the supply of Bormione’s dipping sauce and Marina’s healthy oatmeal cookies.

I remember Thorben said that John wants the team name to be as short as possible while Aggy said that their team came up with a very long name one of them was “To Old For This $h!t” haha because Aggy’s team consist of the earliest people that ever join the hungover games. But in the end their teams names are:

Cher‘s team was “Catch You Must” with a logo of someone from Star Wars that I don’t even know because I don’t watch Star Wars! huaaa sorry for all the SW fans out there 🙁 But at least I know Cher’s character, Cherbacca it’s like Chubaka sth like that haha. Andy was Stormtrooper at halloween but in the league he was Andy-wan Kenobi, then we have Raoul as Darth Burger, Tessa as Princess Tessa, Tammy as Queen Tamidala, Agent Toni as Toto C-3PToni (why suddenly it seems like coding stuff), Qi as R2-Qi2, Luis as Luis Solo.

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

John‘s team was “The Fantastic Beast” with the Harry Potter hand writing style of logo which I found it really cool and the names of each person were: roomies John as Johndledore , Marco as Mad-eye Moorco, Lucy as Lucy Lovegood, Thorben as Dementhor, Boramy as Bormione, Hudson as Hudsini, Syuke as Severus Syuke, David Chadsey as Chadsey Shacklebolt. They even got Bohai as additional supporter that came with hufflepuff coat and a wizard stick! haha winggardium leviosaaaa!

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

Christine‘s team was “The Heartbreakers” with a black and pink touch because quote from Miguel “We will break somebody’s heart” let’s see if you can do that 😉 The team that will breaks your heart is Christine as The Drop Dead Gorgeous, Brody as Bro-die! don’t die yet please, Benita as New Girl, Adam as Puto, Nikita as Nya Kita, my running buddy Miguel as My Jelly and Kun as Only Hunting Bear? Seriously? Bear?! ahahaha

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

Jason‘s team was “Archery Anonymous” with the uniform of the beer name. At first I thought they buy the shirt directly like that hahaha I don’t know if they customize the clothes but Thorben said “they did, they put Archery Anonymous there” but it wasn’t so obvious I think haha sorry guys! but at least you were the colorful one. They have Ben as the Australian Beer, my neighbor Lars as Probably The Best, Felix as Cupid, Eric as Works Every Time, Kwaki as Extra Cold, Kayla as Bullsey and Jason as Pink Elephant. I am so sure that this is not even a beer name hahaha

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

Gene‘s team was “Magnum Shang Hai” with very Haiwaian clothes and it looks so comfy just like you are going to the beach haha and I need to take pic of them behind the bar and not on the field haha! Zara brought a new fashion sport haha look at her! she’s wearing shorts over the legging and somehow it looks good on her! this will be a trend I guess 😉 And also Anderson’s beard was purple actually hahaha he has purple glitter on it. This fashionable team has Hutch with his movember look that looks like father of Bella from Twilight hahahaha, Radu, Anderson, Viktor, Gene and Tonic 😉 Brenda and Zara.

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

Aaron‘s team was “Retro Rockets” with a very interesting logo and name of each team players for example hahaha Fredoy as Asstro Boy and yes it’s a double s, I didn’t do typing mistake 😉 , Yves as Lord of Uranus, Aggy as Princess Laid Ya, Brendan as Luna Corn, Rodion as Darth Vaper, Aaron as Hand Solo and Viki as Venis Fly Trapa. Well well well, people see by yourself 😉

I watched the kickball of the league on 13th Nov, I mean the 1st day of the league, maybe I should not say kickball as there is no ball to kick 😉 hahaha.

There were a game where The Heartbreaker vs AA and it was only Kwaki left if I’m not mistaken and from The Heartbreaker still either full but at least much more people like 4/5 and she caught two arrows in one time therefore 2 of her teammates back in the game, and the 2 arrow shooters from The Heartbreaker need to step aside and then another arrow got caught by AA and the situations was flip around, you go GIRL! all of the spectators went crazy and we were like “Kwaki! Kwaki! Kwaki!” Thorben arrows was being caught a lot so he need to step aside from the game 🙁 huhu I was like why Thorben is on the side again? I don’t see he got shot but yeah turns out his arrow got caught, but it’s OK still 2 more days to change the situations goooo Thorbinator!! Aggy’s team doing pretty well, RR is neck to neck with The Heartbreaker which is really surprising to me ahaha. The Heartbreaker played very well in the opening game, seems they succeed on breaking someone’s heart today. Well, well the winner for the first day of the league was Retro Rockets! yeayyy congratz Aggy and teams of course 😉

I missed the second day of the league on 20th Nov due to all you can eat Schnitzel hahaha! it’s not even BOGO deals, it’s infinite number of Schnitzel! *droollinnggggg 😀 .Marina kept me update regarding the second day of the league and Thorben was doing pretty good! she said that he didn’t step aside like last one and on the first game he even stayed until it finished! wohooooo there you go Thorben! but then Aggy’s team wasn’t perform well 🙁 huhuhu my handsome Freddoy, you should’ve wear the mini shorts again for the finals! hahaha At some point because I was asking Marina “ok now who against who?” and she said “Okay gotta watch” ahahaha yess! be my eyes for today girlll! later on she updated me with the list and Magnum SH is the new winner! Hellooooo Hawaiian shirts, let’s go to the beach each, let’s go get a wave 😉

As what I heard from Aggy, on the second day of the league, Viktor was so awesome, he can catch the arrow from different angle from the top, in front of him, bottom, behind him like everywhere. I saw Viktor caught arrow before so yeah if there was an award for MVP player it won’t be a surprise if Viktor got it.

This is Viktor! haha It’s hard to see who is who behind the mask 😉

The finals was on 27th Nov! and I was there to witness it! What a surprised that team AA was on the bottom of the rank but they played so so soooo crazy well! There was a game where Eric was the only player left against Fantastic Beast and somebody tried to shot him but he caught it! and this kept going on and on and in the end AA won that match, I was like this is such a joke, many players from FB against Eric! gezzz and they won against almost everyone! If I allowed to judge the final game, I think Eric saved their team very much. There was also a game with FB against heartbreaker I think, and idk why Boramy just sit with us and watching. And then there was one bow and 2 arrows left in the middle…. Marina said “who’s bow and arrow is that?” and then Boramy finally realized “OMG its my team!” hahaha and she ran inside the cages 😉 such a silly Bormoine haha

During the match, AA points are getting higher and higher. I really think AA performed super well on the final day. And then there was last match for Retro Rockets against Fantastic Beast. If RR win this last match then they will be the winner of the 3rd league, if RR lost then AA will be the winner. So I can imagine how nervous was Jason as this is the moment between his team or Aaron’s. Thorben asked me “which one you choose to win? its me against Aggy” and this is such a hard question haha I cannot even answer that.

Last man standing was Hudson, he was hiding and trying to catch some arrows behind two bunkers and only few seconds left but RR team was getting more and more aggressive and unstoppable arrow was pointed at Hudson, on the last few seconds he got shot first before he caught so that’s the game. It was such a debate because both arrows pointed at him very fast so as the spectator we might see that he caught the arrow first but 3 referee said that he got shot and then caught. And RR team was cheering because their points was 21 and AA team was 20.5, it was sooo sooo sooo close! Congratz Retro Rockets for winning the 3rd League! Aggy stayed quiet long time on the league yesss! make Indonesia proud ahahaha 😉 Aaron played really well on the final game, well done captain!

Go get that trophy Retro Rockets!! Aggy was a warrior in this video, Thorben made an appearance on this video also but he gracefully exit the field 😉 haha I was also on the video with the RR! wohooooo

I am so happy to become the spectator, shouting 8!tch3$ all the time with Marina, sang “stay aliveeeeee iveee iveeee” with unnecessary echo, ate chicken sticks, complaint, became the commentator that for sure no sports TV want to hire us haha , watching players slammed their mask, arrows, bows, hands etc whatever it is hahaha but be in mind that me and Marina we were not annoying 😉 we were farrrr from falling into annoying categories hahaha. Well done to all the 6 teams! You must be proud of yourself that you just finished the very intense game! thumbs up!

We also need to thanks Tim, Chenzi, Wyatt that has prepared the game, trophy and be a referee for this league is such a pressure! I bet Tim’s blood pressure for this month has raised hahaha

As for me, I am happy that Aggy’s team won, because the ratio between Aggy-Thorben and me was 1:1:1.1 winner, 1 participants and 1 didn’t even get drafted 😉 hahaha Well, at least I’m on team Leyfa the mamacita! Yeah 8!tches, Por Favor is Coming 😉 *snap snap.

The Sequel of Source Code

And here the sequel of source code begin….

Featuring Marlyn, Elle, Gordy and Wesley

Hahaha! Started at Zeitgeist during the kick off of Christkindlmarkt aka Christmas Market.

We were suppose to meet at 6:30 but me and Gordy arrived earlier at Zeitgeist due to the reason I was super hungry before the xmas market and at the market it will only be snacks instead of proper food so we had proper dinner first before we swayed to the backyard for the Gluhwein 😉 Gordy already had 2 cups of gluhwein on the restaurant, I just had Schnitzels and the gluhwein will be on the market. The market was nice and surprisingly full for the first day…well maybe because it was on Friday, it was hard to walk without spilling your gluhwein no matter how careful you are, you just can’t haha

Gordy was the one that super prepared in terms of thematic sweater, it’s still the 30th November but he already wear a xmas sweater with a xmas tree on it and it is so match with the real/fake xmas tree in the middle of the market haha. Many people took selfie with him just because of his sweater, I really think it’s a good investment to buy that sweater haha 😉

In the market, they have chicken something, pepito pancakes, bratwurst and friends and honestly speaking I had my gluhwein so I need to take off my glasses to drink it otherwise it would be dewy, so I can’t see anything clear about what kind of food there haha I just know there was also some stalls that selling earing, candle, nuts and etc etc. Elle was so persistent on having a pretzels and then at some point she saw a kid holding pretzel walked passed by and without any excuse me or so on she just said (read: a bit scream) “where did they get the pretzels?” and to her surprised the kid replied “it’s from the restaurant” and Elle said to me “I didn’t expect that the kid would actually reply” hahaha Wesley got his chicken something but I don’t know what was going on with him, we went to the chicken stall, he looked at it and somehow we walked all the opposite way to the other side to see some skewers and Wesley said “I want a chicken” and I said “You mean the chicken on the other side?” and he said yes, so we have to walked all the way back there, carrying our gluhwein that was already spilled anywhere just so that he can get his food *facepalm.

Gordy met many of his friends there, but me and Elle also saw a very interesting guy that looks like an assassin! like in every movie kind of assassin, sleak hair with a very clear hairline, sharp eyes it’s very like wow! I need to look up for a sniper or something because they must have a code between each other…and the code was…. a rose!

OMG we were so nervous what can we do with the rose, so we put it on the nutcracker statue so Elle should be undetectable by the assassin 😉 hahaha *fiuh just save the day ahahaha, we lost the assassin. That’s need a cheers!

At some point, we somehow lost Gordy, well….not lost but he was talking to his friends so the three of us were walked around and waited for the food and while we finished, we came back to where he supposed to be which is next to the tree but he wasn’t there! But yeah we couldn’t lost him anyway so we tried to take a selfie with the tree, and then here he is! the blurry guy on the background, while they have “where’s Waldy?” we have “where’s Gordy?” hahaa

Elle got her food, Wesley already finished and now it was Gordy who still wants to eat something so he also ordered the same thing as Elle if I remember it correctly. While waiting for the food, they put a Christmas songs or a song that all of us know so we talked about songs quiet a lot but I don’t know why they can’t catch the song that I sang pffff guys 🙁 ahaha #begging me for mercy, yeah yeah yeah

While it was about 10PM, they already closed down the market, they stopped the music even earlier so that we have no other options other than to leave. Elle and Wesley got a day trip the next day to somewhere in Suzhou where I don’t even think they know either hahaha.

But as the night goes by, the code about the assassin getting more and more clear, so who is this? What I know from all the movie I watched, the characteristic of an assassin should be:

  1. Very careful,
  2. Isolated,
  3. Always reveals incomplete clue.
  4. (Read: Not always) mostly guy.

And who that can fit to those three (or maybe four) basic categories?!?!

I mean, Gordy can’t be because he’s not careful at all as he spilled the gluhwein the most, clearly not isolated especially with his sweater where he became the attraction of the xmas market. So crossed him out, it means only leave to Wesley! *shocked face…..

Verdict 1: Wesley did very careful on the market, he paid attention to every gluhwein that he might spill to his shoes! he doesn’t want any spot on his shirts or shoes.

Verdict 2: Speaking of isolated….well, sometimes picture speaks thousand words 😉 He doesn’t want to eat around people!

Verdict 3: Another proof that pictures speaks thousand words… well, maybe in this picture, it will only speaks few words.

Unfinished line!

Me and Gordy was waiting the next message from Wesley but it was never came!! *facepalm

By this so called failed detective analysis, the assassin might be ehmmm ehmmm again, I’m not gonna say the brand ahahaha but in the end everything went safe and sound, no one get hurt 😉 #this the season to be jolly lalaalalalalallala

As I won’t see you for this Xmas sooo…for now….happy early Christmas then! I’ll see you in year 2019!! HO HO HO!

Have a good holiday guys!!!

Arthos, porTHOs and araMis

Here it is! my two favorite people!

The A(ggy)rthos and porTHO(rben)s ahahaha get it? everyone? 😉 as November almost finished and on December I will be barely in Shanghai, Thorben will be in Germany for 3 weeks and Aggy hmm….she should be in Shanghai hahaha so I requested a dinner date for 3 of us 😉 before all of us reunite again on year 2019!

For this date, I prepare myself hahaha *wink wink 😉 I’ve never done any hairstyle whatsoever for anything, not even for my birthday I’m too lazy to do that haha! but yeah I spent quiet some time on youtube to find what to do with my hair, and when the girl on youtube showed it to her hair it looks good on her but when I did it to mine…. I look like a 5 years old! *facepalm hahaha

They both had archery so I came slightly before the game was finished, I watched from the side, I saw both of them playing for the same team and I knocked from the glass cages whatever its called to make sure that they see “hellooooo look what I did with my hair! haha” John got out to say hi to me “Hi Roomies” and then I went in to hug Thorben and John said “What? Thorben is all sweating and you hug him and not me?” hahaha roomiesss! you didn’t choose me to be on your team! #just kidding 😉 and I did hug John after that!

I asked many people “What do you think about my hair” and the reaction from almost everyone was “Did you cut it? Is it a different style?” hmmm “No, I put a hairband” and they were like “ooowhh” Bohai, Fredoy and Brendan were one of the guys that didn’t realize it. Miguel kind of realize it, Aaron realized it and so did Tim. I asked Tim “Do I look like 5yo with this hairband?” he said “Yes, well before you look like 12” hahaha I said to him “I’ve got a date tonight” and he said “with Aggy?” ahahahah! is it that obvious?! 😀

I kept telling everyone (apart asking for my hair) that I got a date and Andy said “Did Thorben approved?” hahaha Thorben said “the date is with me and Aggy, we will watch Marlyn while she’s having a date” and he said to me “Marlyn, we set up a tinder profile for you and now you have a real date” and Aggy said “Yes, we will sit some distance and watch her, like no hands under the table” ahahaha and Andy said “Can I also be on the date?” I said “No, it’s exclusive for 3 of us” and he said “I will buy my own table and then watch Thorben and Aggy watching you on a date” hahaha 😀

We went to Pie Society which is just around the corner from Cages and from Aggy’s home, the place is wayyyy too bright, the food was good but we ordered too many and we couldn’t finished it. We ordered 4 types of pies. Tim warned me that “do not try to steal their food while you’re on a date” and I just “hmmmmmm” Well Tim, report, I didnt steal their food, in fact they were quiet surprise when I said I’m full hahaha

When we ordered (well, Thorben and Aggy did) I just looked at the menu and the pies, it is a dry pie instead of the pie with gravy and so on it’s different from the picture and I kind of told them “But it’s a different pie from this picture” and Thorben said “relax Marlyn, it will be enough food” I still hesitated and he continues “do you want to go somewhere else?” and talked to Aggy “I think I feels like a parents that go with a kid” and Aggy is such a tiger mom she said “No, I will say eat whatever on the plate” and I kept showing the picture on the phone to Thorben and he said “put down your phone” 🙁 phewwwww but yeah in the end I got what I wanted with gravy, sauce whatever it’s called hahaha

Thorben was sooo sleepy during the dinner due to someone went to a party the day before haha. Look at his face, he barely opened his eyes and just yawning the whole time haha sorry Thorben but I caught you in a funny face and feel that I will be too selfish to not share it here 😉

Due to my effort of making my hair, I insisted to take a selfie and Thorben was like nooooo, he’s on the movember look so he’s got to keep his moustache till the end of this month haha but I think the moustache is not that bad…..hmmm

When it was time to pay, I asked how much it is and will transfer it to Thorben but using red packet and the funny thing is me and Aggy wrote almost the same meaning hahaha!

I once watched one of the video from Simon Sinek and it really has a good meaning, he once said in the military they have brother and sister, that’s how they think about each other and if anything from the outside showed up they’re looking for a unified front. He also said sth about courage, that its not something inside of you and you dig down and find it, it just doesn’t work like that, courage comes from external, it’s the support we feel from others. And when I heard it, the first things that popped out in my mind was the obstacle race that we just did few months ago, where Thorben and Aggy was very supportive, they became my courage source even though in the end Aggy had to cancel the race but it was really because of these two I got all the things I needed, I know that I got my unified front already.

Also when I mentioned the guy name that we never heard before Thorben suddenly acted as a protective big brother, it was so funny that he even spent 20 mins looking for a sticker with a guy looking through holes in a newspaper but unfortunately he couldn’t find it so I have to just imagine that haha 😉 so if any of you have this sticker please send it to Thorben’s hahaha so that he won’t waste 20 mins of his life again 😀

What I know for sure if my life would sucks without you <3

We No Speak Americano

Guess who’s back? Back again? haha it’s the Food Nerds! It’s all started when Thomas posted a Thanksgiving Dinner options at Zeitgeist, followed by Claudia posted also another Thanksgiving Dinner at Le Bouchon. Which one to chooseee *confused

We were 8 people and Christian did the calculation of which one is cheaper 1180/8 VS 1188/8 and we only pay 1RMB more but we got fatter turkey at Le Bouchon haha so easy peasy! We chose Le Bouchon 😉

Claudia and Sara arrived first, and the door at Le Bouchon is very tricky to open, I cannot even smoothly open it ahahaha and need to waiter to opened it up for me, please excuse me Ms. Praseli wants to get in ahaha. Followed by Christian, Giovanni, Thomas & Nora and we wouldn’t even try wait for Fiona because we suspected that she will arrived at 9 ish while the dinner was at 7:30 sharp! haha but turns out Fiona wasn’t that late, in fact she was pretty on time, sneaky smart! she arrived when the Turkey was about to serve, she doesn’t even need to wait ahahaha. While we were waiting for both the Turkey and Fiona to arrived, we took a lot of pictures, but due to Claudia quote from her “wasn’t in a good day for taking pictures” therefore from many pictures that we took, she only sent one hahaha and here we are looking so natural 😀

Then the turkey came with the Chef Charles ( I suppose it’s his name..or? hahaha) he helped us to serve it but before he cut it, we were so insisted to take picture around the Turkey but in the end we didn’t do it because it’s just too 麻烦 haha

We just stood around it and admire the Turkey in front of us and all the side dishes *drooliingggg

Then there is a what I called domino’s picture but somehow the domino doesn’t effect Gio, he was the only one that stand still hahaha We were slightly debating of who will got it first, and Gio stood next to the chef and he said “start from the biggest to the smallest” and I gasped! and Christian said “then start with me” (because he’s the tallest) but Gio said “no, it’s the biggest” (because he’s the ……….hmmm hahaha) but I got the first one! yeayyy! and Gio said “OK Marlyn, this is only for the picture” hahaha

The turkey was sooooo great, I like the stuffing, baby cabbages, potatoes, gravy, cranberry sauce, I don’t really like the chestnut not because the chestnut was bad or sth, I just don’t eat chestnut in general. I had the second round, I think most of us make it through second round. And by the time we were on the table eating the turkey, I just realized that none of us are from the States hahaha, we came from either Asian (Indonesia, Hong Kong and China) or European (Germany, Spain and Italian) hahaha we don’t even have a thanksgiving celebration but yeah we participated in glorifying the Turkey! haha Sara’s was the one that prepared so well, she wore one size bigger skirt and at the end of the dinner the skirt fits her perfectly hahaha!

After we glorified the Turkey, Gio insisted to have a dessert as what he said “I just need a spoon of sugar” we were so reluctant to have dessert due to we were full already but Gio got support from Thomas and they ordered the chocolate volcano and creme brulee and 7 spoons hahaha (Christian already bounced at this time).

But then when the dessert came it was just like a war-zone, all of us except Gio were so fast to get the dessert and it’s gone as fast as the speed of light! The dessert was placed in front of Gio and he was the last one to taste it hahahaha and he said “Who’s the one that doesn’t really wants dessert?” haha 😀

We still have food left there and Gio said “we can take it for Diego and Java” and I was like “who is Java?” and Java is Fiona’s dog. and I was like hmmm yeah Diego and Java? on the same level hahaha! #sorry Diego just kidding 😉 Sara took some for Diego and also for lunch for her and Claudia, and Fiona took all the bones for Java, he must be very happy and I bet he wouldn’t be able to jump to the bed ever again hahaha.

Somehow the conversation went to fake teeth, I don’t know how it goes nor that I want to know how can we went to that conversation and Gio said “I need to take care of my fake teeth” and I was like “do you have fake teeth?” and he said yes! haha he said “I’m already old, you can call me Shu Shu” 😀 He thought I was the youngest but no, it’s Nora who is the youngest among all of us.

I hope everyone had a good digestive system as for me, it was such as struggle to sleep yesterday due to my stomach is sooo full and I’m afraid that I could throw it up if I lay down hahaha.

Funny how I can meet my families in Shanghai, I met my bro Thor and sis Gy and now I just found my long lost shu shu Gio! hahaha

Happy Thanksgiving and I give thanks to all of you 😉

The Man Who Rejected My Chili Sauce

This is a story about a chili sauce named Belibis,

Dinner time, we gather up…

knock knock knock on the table (need to sing faster on this word)

It’s time for Schnitzel, perfect sauce…

It’s you we’re all waiting for…

Then I go, “Isn’t she lovely? This chiliiiii (need to sing longer on this word) sauce?” And Wesley said “I don’t eat chili” *crackkkk!!! the whole song was ruined” hahaha Elle, I bet you know what kind of song is this 😉

Finally, after more than 2 weeks of waiting for the All You Can Eat Schnitzel! I’m still heartbroken by the fact that we are not having BOGO pizza deals so Gordy had an idea of this all you can eat Schnitzel and he said “Do I need to explain what does all you can eat mean? its not BOGO this is unlimited number of Schnitzel” ahahaha somehow that Thorben would say “mass eater” haahaha 😉

We, well, I did the countdown 48 hours before the Schnitzel deals day which is Tuesday at Zeitgeist! Heloooo free shot Jagermeister please, I’m doing promotion here for Zeitgeist 😀 haha! I even had a plan in my mind that I won’t eat heavy lunch so that I’m keeping myself for the dinner HA! seems like a smart move 🙂

The dinner is here, Elle and Wesley were the one who arrived, and then me. Elle was become a really good host by offering me “Do you want the grape?” haha directly from the garden!

Gordy was late so I guess he rushed to Zeitgeist and while we want to took a selfie to send it to him to make him hurry up and there he arrived, just in time before I pressed the click button. He just came back from Thailand for a soccer team so he’s got a bit of sun burn and Wesley like “what happen with your face?” haha

Zeitgeist has a good membership deal that he will give you a beer glass and you can write your name on it and they will keep it and when you come you can drink beer from your own glass, Wesley was interested about it and he asked for how much the membership will be and so on, so people just FYI it starts with 2000 RMB, 5000RMB and 10000 RMB, and how much did Wesley choose? stay tuned till the end of this story 😉

We obviously eat the Schnitzel as this is the deals!!! It has cranberry sauce and also potato salad which is goooddd *drooling but I still put my Indonesian chili sauce. Elle and Gordy also tried it on their second Schnitzel but Wesley didn’t! My chili sauce got rejected! 🙁 hahaha I thought you put the spicy sauce on the BBQ last trip…hmmmm…how could you reject this sauce *puppy eyes*

For the drinks, we had ciders for Gordy, gin and tonic for Elle, Brander something for Wesley and Brander Urstoff- the friend’s wife’s uncle’s beer from my German friend Dennis haha- (supposedly for me) but then the waiter mixed up between me and Wesley’s beer, so I had brander something (first one on the menu, just like Wesley’s said) and he had mine haha The surprising facts about our drink is that the ice cube of Elle’s gin and tonic was not melted the whole night! the ice cube survived for the whole dinner time! and the taste of gin and tonic is not watery hahahaha what was the scientific reason behind this? we thought that maybe because it’s cold now, winter is coming so the ice cube won’t melt hahaha well, well does this scientific approach make sense? #teachers? Albert Einstein? Isaac Newton? anyone? hahaha

Gordy has definitely 4 Schnitzels, I forgot if he stopped after the 5th or the 6th Schnitzels, Wesley either 3.5 or 4.5 (the other half was from Elle because she couldn’t finished it), I got 3, Elle got 2.5. And after we finished eating it, because Gordy knows one of the owner of Zeitgest, we got free shot of Jagermeister! wohooo

It’s actually taste pretty good, considering that winter is coming, I don’t even feel the cold of the days when I ride back home under the drizzle. Gordy said I should have Jager shot everyday then ahahaha.  And not only that, because Christmas is coming, why everything is coming? haha winter, christmas, Elle’s parents hahaha anything else people?! 😉

we also gootttttt a free ticket for their Xmas Market, at first they only gave one ticket for each of us, but then we cheered and she gave the second tickets for each of us and we cheered again but Gordy said to her “Do not give her the third one for the sake of this place, otherwise she will explode” hahaha 😀 We will go to this Christmas market on the kick-off day! the 30th November! haha

The night somehow has to end because our belly already super full and the waiter asked us if we want to buy the membership deals and what Wesley chooseeeee…… we didn’t buy it ahahaha! in fact Wesley was about to take one of the wood decoration from Zeitgeist hahaha! just in case if the wood stock getting lower and lower it might be ehmmm ehmmm I won’t say the brand ahahaha

During the dinner, Gordy talked that *spoiler! another ads is coming haha The Westin had a pretty nice brunch deal (read: expensive, but full of entertainment) until 3PM they have opera, orchestra, Alaskan crab, caviar, cheese, a stations for desserts! Elle seems interested about that 😉 she just wants to check the cheese, desserts and orchestra and it already fulfill her requirements! haha this will be the whole day brunch, maybe next time 😉 as all of us are still feeling the Schnitzel in our tummy until now and not sure if we are ready to feel the Alaskan crab on our tummy haha what type of feeling would it be *hmmm interesting 😉 maybe we should really try this whole day brunch be in mind it’s a maaayyyyybeeeeeeee even though it sounds an overly excited maybe ahahaha 

We did many ads yesterday! Including the one and only hungover games! me and Gordy somehow will sign you up for the game and all you have to do is be ready!! haha Wesley was also thinking about joining either rugby team or soccer team. Well, in that case our life will be balance, eat and sports, we won’t feel so guilty about the amount of Schnitzel we just had or the amount of Alaskan crab that we will have…someday…hahaha

Meanwhile… another countdown…Gluhwein is calling kring kringggg 😉

The Mathematical Formula of Raining

Me and Miguel supposed to run on West Bund on Thursday, be in mind that it’s ON Thursday, not EVERY Thursday haha we are not so dedicated in running, we just run because we realized that we need to do a bit of sports. Miguel play archery more than I do so with this running exercise that we are planning to do “every two weeks” it should be enough exercise already haha. It seems only theory to do run every two weeks 😉 however we were trying to be discipline, but….. there will always be an exceptional “but” hahaha 🙂 yesterday both me and Miguel has a bit issue with our knee….however, for the sake of our own commitment we still trying to keep our running plan untilllll!!! the Universe has spoken! hahaha it was rain yesterday hahaha! sooo we took it as the Universe way to protect our knee from getting injured as we both have archery on Sunday 😉 hahaha

So, we need other plan! which is tararaarammmm! Miguel always talked that his fav bread place is Pain Chaud and I’ve never try it before so I suggested him that we go there. And somehow I remembered that the meaning of Pain Chaud was “Fat Uncle” so I typed “Let’s go to the fat uncle” and Im afraid that he didn’t get it, so I said “The meaning of Pain Chaud is Fat Uncle, right?” and he said “No, it’s actually a hot bread” and I was like whaatttt how come I remember it so wrong! not that I never remember anything wrong in my life ever, but this one is wayyyy too far.

And turns out he did say the way to pronounce it is similar to pronounce fat uncle in Chinese which is 胖叔 (Pang Shu) hahaha and I couldn’t help my self to crack laughing when I realize it 😀 This was very funny and seriously I cannot hold it anymore but I can’t be the one in the office that suddenly laughing because of 胖叔 so I need to excuse myself to the bathroom just for laughing hahaha *face palm. Miguel was also giggling and he was so exposed so he cannot hide anywhere haha.

And after I finally able to calm down which is took a lot of time, he started again with typing 胖叔 and even when I’m writing this I still find it funny in some way hahaha 🙂

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

And then there’s a time when we met at IAPM and we went to YongKang Road to see the 胖叔.

But then I realized that it’s not the same 胖叔 as I want, because I want to go to bigger and fatter 胖叔 but it was already sometime close to 8 and the 胖叔 need to rest and it will close like 9ish maybe?! and 胖叔 is not a place for dinner as it’s only bread and cakes. So we decided to go somewhere else and then came back to 胖叔, after a 10 attempts of different restaurant, we ended up to gave up the idea of 胖叔  hahahaha I thought of Thorben’s place though because he always have food *wink wink 😉 but in the end we go to Beef & Liberty.

In this Beef & Liberty, I saw my long time friend that I haven’t met, so I said to Miguel that I want to say hi to my friend, and I did came to Julia to say hi and to my surprise Julia said:

J: “There is Agnes there”

M: “Who’s Agnes?”

And then Agnes is the one and only AGGY!! hahaha and I brought her to Miguel and he said “Is this your friend? I also know her” ahahha

What a random day from planning to run but then the Universe has spoken to no 胖叔 and yes to burger. This is a good mathematical formula then haha

Raining = No Running + No 胖叔 + Yes to Burger 😉

Raining = (-) Running + (-) 胖叔 + (+) Burger

Raining = (-) + (-) + (+)

Raining = (+) + (+) = Double Positive!

Me and Aggy doesn’t want Thorben to be left out so we sent the picture to him so he didn’t missed out the news hihihi and I’ve told him that I thought about his place and he said “But I’m not a restaurant” ahahaha *face palm. And another good news is Miguel will be neighbor with Thorben and he has a piano! so Steak at Thorben’s and piano at Miguel’s haha perfecto! wohoooooo

Btw people, me and Miguel really did run before, not so dedicated but at least we’ve done something sporty hahaha.

And if the Universe let us to run again, we will! haha *determined face! (just imagine that) 😀
