The Weather.

Hello there, I’m back. So, as time passes by, the days seem to be getting shorter. Well, probably it’s because autumn’s kicking in. It used to get dark at 8.30pm but now it starts to get dark at 7.00pm. Trees are getting yellow and they look very pretty..hahah.. like the ones in the calendars we see. I’ve uploaded 2 pictures of my room. It’s not too big and not too small. I guess that’s what you should expect from 225 Euros a month with heating, electricity, water, and internet (mind you, it’s sometimes slow). Just don’t convert the Euros back to Ringgit because if you do so, you’ll feel the pain :s . Well, this place I’m living in now is called a Wohngemeinschaft. So it’s six people(each having their own bedrooms) to one kitchen, two toilets, and one bath. And guess what! There’s this German gal next door! She lives in room 215 and I’m in 214..haha! I sound like a perve..lol!

Darn..I am so lazy to cook. I have to admit that after all these years of having a maid, I feel so awkward cooking for myself..blehh. So yeah, I go out and eat. But after some eating out, home cooked food is still the best. Somehow, it just tastes different from the outside food. And fortunately, I don’t miss Malaysian food till today. No cravings..nothing at all. Phewwhh. It’s mostly pork here and not to mention, beer. The standard dish which you can find in most of the German eateries is Schnitzel paniert. Sorry I don’t have a picture of the dish but it’s mainly deep fried pork and French fries and maybe salad; the pork version of fish and chips. There are many types of beer and I only remember Koelsch and it’s from Aachen. I just order the beer and I just drink it. It’s generally lighter than beer in Malaysia. So drinking a glass of beer here is nothing. It just makes your bladder more filled up. Im sorry, I don’t really know how to appreciate beer, but I drink. It’s ok.



So this is my room. The door is quite thick though.



My bed. See the white heater behind the chair? Looks like a huge condensing unit..haha.


Cute doggie picture.The dog was so small and white..



Typical fruits in Germany you can find in every supermarket. The bottle in the middle contains 'new wine' which means it has very low alcohol content. It tastes nice though.


This is about it for now.
Chao.
