A quiet weekend

For the reading weekend I missed it somehow to join one of the several trips which have been done which gave me the opportunity to take some breath from my studies. On Thursday Thomas, Jörn Marten and me went to Toronto to slack a bit around there. Especially impressing was the hot tempered debate we watched in the Ontario parliament.

On Friday Bea, Jesse, Thomas and me competed in a monopoly game. It started very funny with me owning several railways, the facilities and finally the expensive blue streets. The cost for the hotels there and series of luck of my competitors brought me close to the ruin but a good sense for business always pays off. It ended in one of these endless games that we stopped without having a unique winner.

Monopoly: After 4 hours the game ended draw for everyone.

Outside curling

After a hard ride through the deep snow we noticed that our curling session was canceled this sunday. Not wanting to give away our passion we decided the go back to the roots of this game and played outside Urs unit.

At least we haven't lost this time: advanced curling

And finally: what's curling without the beer after?

A package from Germany

Today I opened the mailbox and couln't believe what I saw. A package for me. It was a surprise from my parents and its content was a whole bunch of german sweets including a packet of the world wide unique Haribo "Goldbären". Thanks for this back home. I was so happy.

Me and my sweets and the real "Gummibärchen"

Totally out of order

This weekend my body was on strike. Due to a gastro-intestinal disease I felt like a bucket of real german shit (sorry for this rude expression).
So there is no real update this week because I don't think that you wanna see pictures of me talking all the night to the porcelain telephone.

Karaoke in the silverspur

Tonight we went to the silverspur again to enjoy some karaoke. To fill the bar a bit more up with people we first send our preband on the stage to perform a song of grease. Allison and Bea with their background singer Phil and Paul inspired the audience quite well. Then it was the time for a real boy group.

left: Allison and Bea broke the ice; right: fltr: me, Sascha and Paul performed "I can't dance". This was definitly the right song at the right time.

Then it was time for the main show of the evening: Me, Sarah, Sascha and Phil (fltr) enthused with "I love rock'n roll" and not like I first wrote with "Love fool" (Thanks Sarah!). Somehow it was hard this evening to read the lyrics on the screen, they didn't seem to be very clear.

It turned out to be a good night. Even Stefan was allowed to stay.
