change

Wow! I've abandoned my blog for such a long time.

Oh well, I think I might be changing to a new one soon... I hate it when I don't constantly update my blog. So much for being forgetful and lazy.

schwarz und weiß

Yesterday's story :

(wir tragen...)

...Schwarz und Weiß

Wir stehen auf eurer Seite

Und wir hol'n den Sieg mit euch

Und wir hol'n der Sieg mit euch

JETZT GEHT'S LOS!

Refrain

Scwarz und Weiß

- Oliver Pocher

Und Deutschland hat doch gewonnen! 4:0 gegen Argentinien!

Ich habe in der halbzeit gesagt, dass vielleicht Deutschland will 4 tür schließen. Und ich bin richtig!

Danach, ich habe Feuerwerk am Rhein gesehn. Es war schön aber ganz windig ^^

Yes! Germany won 4:0 against Argentina! I did not quite believe that whatever I said during the half-time was going to come true! I said that Germany seems to love the number 4 lately since they won 4:0 to Australia and 4:1 to England, thus maybe this time they might have 4 goals too!

Oh, and did I forgot to mention something? I watch the match on tv with my host family and a family friend [with her daughter] who is currently staying at Kuala Lumpur because of work and came back to Germany on Friday for summer holidays! I guess they brought the Malaysian weather along because it started raining heavily [a thunderstorm, in fact] after Germany won the match! I missed Malaysian thunderstorm though - this summer in Germany is so sunny! No rain before yesterday's thunderstorm and today is back to sunny again...so hot-lah...

Anyway, the result was amazing and there were windy-fireworks at night along the Rhein river - in which has nothing to do with Germany wining but it was perfect timing [or day-ing? XD] It just so happened that the summer fireworks coincide with the football match on the same day [but the match was in the afternoon and fireworks are at night] I took some pictures of the firework even if it is lousy and can't take pictures well but considering how old it is, the "antique" digital camera did well.

Above is part of the chorus of a song sang by Oliver Pocher for Germany football team ^^ And do you know the Lukas Podolvski song? Lu, lu, lu, lu, Lukas Podolvski! And I don't really know why he has so many fangirls...good-looking? Maybe, he looks quite handsome. Good football-er? Yes, quite, can't deny that.

shake it up, j-pop & k-pop!

shake it up~ shake it up~ shake it up!

Yes, yes... I know you are about to comment me about being outdated on japanese and korean entertainment news. Even my knowledge about super junior - one of the k-pop groups that I like better - is outdated and bla bla blah...

Oh well, I can't help being outdated but I am catching up now, not to mention that I have much more computer time now, owing to the kind-hearted new host family.

Now, I am kind of addicted to this song above... Oh, my, oh, my... I really should listen to something else besides these below that are favourite-ed on my playlist [without any particular order] :

1. wheesung - insomnia

[and I think his style suits me better instead of craig david's so don't say who's version is better or who can't even sing etc. etc. - both of them can sing. fullstop.]

2. super junior's kyuhyun - 7 years of love

3. super junior's ryeowook - one fine spring day

4. super junior - bonamana [miina]

5. super junior - here we go

6. super junior - boom boom

7. dong bang shin ki - hug

[I know it is old song but I still like it]

8. dong bang shin ki - purple line

[both japanese and korean version]

9. dong bang shin ki - why did I fall in love with you

10. super junior - shake it up!

& loads of c-pop that I should better not make the list, just in case this post turn out to be a hundred lines long.

And if you noticed, I might as well be stuck to super junior's 4th album lately...

To conclude, I am determined to be at least be updated about the groups I like. At least. And I shall say this [or rather sing?] : shake it up~ shake it up~ shake it up!

<3 modu, saranghaeyo~ [muax* bleh! XD]

new place, new environment, new faces

I changed my host family. Thus, meaning that I might be in a totally new place in Germany, to me. Well, it is different.

Talking about this new home, the people are as nice as the previous ones and yes, I have my own room now. Nice view too. And the weather here is much hotter - in the afternoon, I could as well imagine that I am back in Malaysia. Oh, it has almost the least rain in Germany too. Nice place, I mean weather. But then, it means that I just wasted a lot of money buying a rain jacket. RAWR!!

Oh well, school here is really nice too but I still prefer the 2nd school I attended in Germany. What to do? There is always pros and cons. Anyway, this school is also a Gymnasium High School like the first school I attended [which is the highest level in Germany >.<]

Hmm...summer holidays starts only next week - the schools in the previous state I was in is having summer holidays now. I can't wait!

So, since this week is the last week of school, it is project week, or, in German - projektwoche. I joined a painting project for the cafeteria's ceiling at the last minute and was lucky that I can actually join a project since I just changed to this family last monday and entered this school last wednesday. And the project was officialy finished today ^^ tomorrow shall be the "open day" for people to come and see our "masterpiece" Heheh!

However, today was seriously a waste of time, since we had finished drawing and painting in the last 2 school days [to be exact it was 1 1/2 school days where 1 school day means from 0745 till 1245, which was quite a feat] I left for school at 0845 since we were supposed to be there by 0915 and I had to walk but then I had to wait for 2 trains to cross the street and ended up being just on time [normally it is around a 20 minutes walk and under the sun too!] We just needed to replace the boards of the cafeteria ceiling and we were done with everything by 0955.

Therefore, I walked 30 minutes to school, spent 40 minutes on project and then walked another 20 minutes back home. Nice day. And it was sunny too. Not my favourite weather when it is sunny and "superbly" warm, I meant steaming hot. Imagine walking on the street for 50 minute on a super-sunny-day-without-a-single-cloud-in-the-sky-in-summer. Okay, I ws exaggerating. There were some clouds but it is still amazingly hot!! Seriously, I was sweating so much when I finally got back home.

All right, enough complaining. Germany is a nice country with nice landscapes and nice people and very nice but also very expensive things. [unless you are talking about alcoholic drinks and chocolates] However, I guess I still prefer Malaysia more than Germany because I am used to it even if it is always much hotter but at least we have fans and air-conditioners and exhaust-fan.

Have a nice day, guys. Love you all! Miss you all! Sorry for the long absence in this blog.

I will upload the pictures next time - this computer is slow.

updating status : hybernating

I forgot one important message to whoever who reads this blog [if there are any] :

Because of certain mechanical problems the blog owner is facing this blog shall be hybernating for most of this year until Jan 2011 with occassional posts so be sure to pop in to check if there are new updated posts if possible or when you remember and thank you for reading this long notice that is quite a long sentence which should have been told in sometime like a few weeks ago but I forgot and please forgive me if you do not or cannot fully understand it or it makes your head spin when you read it because it really does not make much sense except to tell that I will not be able to post frequently since I will not be able to use the Internet often which is around once every 1 to 2 weeks time but really please do me a favour to check this hardly-updated-blog every once-in-a-while and that is all XD

I hope you get the message. Peace =)

morning dew

These days, the morning dews are so heavy... Or rather these few days.

On Monday [yesterday] the morning dew or mist was so thick that when I woke up in around 5 o'clock in the morning [early right? have to, no choice, if not no bathroom for me or late to school...] I could hardly see out of the window [and it is normally quite dark as they don't have much street lights] and when I walked to the bus stop at 6.30 am I could hardly see 500m around me. Thick, right? And cold too...

Anyway, it is spring now and according to the Germans, there will be more rain and I can quite agree that after last week's nice and *quite* warm and *quite* sunny weather, it is cold now but at least there is no more snow, for now :) [the last snow I saw was last week or last last week I think...]

So now it is like : gloomy skies - rain - a bit of sun - strong winds - gloomy skies - strong winds - rain - etc.

Very nice weather, at least, if it was in Malaysia...

and I really can use a rain-jacket if I have one, in which unfortunately, I have none...oh, and my blog can do with some updates too...*haih*

snow

So, I've reached Germany and I'm trying hard to keep up with the weather and temperature here.

Of course, snow is nice but it is very cold. It is supposed to be spring now but there is snow - for the first time in Germany. It snowed the night before we landed in Frankfurt airport and when we reached [on the 6th of March] it snowed again. We, the people from Malaysia were all like - woah! - but after 5 minutes of taking pictures and videos and staring like - Ö - at the snow falling, we were frozen [practically] and was "stowed" back into the airport for refuge to defrost [okay, I exagarated]

After that, I took a 2 hours and 15 minutes train to Kassel with Mala [who went down at another station before me] and a volunteer name Kathi from AFS Germany. I pity her and I feel very grateful to her because she stays near the train station where Mala went and she has to bring me all the way to Kassel [around 1 hours and 45 minutes from her stop] and wait for another train to bring her back home. I was welcomed by my family at the train station in Kassel and we took another 45 minutes of car journey to my host family's house which is big with a frontyard and a backyard [most importantly, they have heater in the house!!!]

I went to church the next morning and was brought around the town so that I know where is the bus stop and the shop and the bakery. And I spent the rest of my time at home warming myself because it is freezing cold outside. And I really do mean freezing cold as it is minus degrees outside. I really have to get used to life here.

On Monday, I started school at Wolfhagen and I really stood out a lot because I'm shorter than most people there and I have black hair and I have dark brown eyes and my features are flat and I look oh-so-asian and I can't understand what they are all talking about and I can't speak a word of German.

The good part is I haven't had any feeling of homesickness yet. Hope I can pick up German fast enough. So that is all for now.

Greetings from Germany :]

Tschüss

Lots of loves and hugs,

Rynne

p/s : I miss my pillow at home...

germany, here i come!

I can't believe it! I'm actually leaving for Germany tomorrow!

Putting aside the excited feelings and blah-blah-blahs, I actually feel very very anxious now.

Well, I'll see how it goes.

p/s : such a long time didn't update my blog, really sorry.

pink pink strawberries

I know I said I hate pink and strawberry flavoured snacks.

I still hate them.

But I had some today :3

I changed my mind.

Maybe having just a little once in a while is not too bad an idea :]

Somehow it reminds me of my childhood years when I used to be crazy about the colour pink and strawberries like any other little girls.

*cheers*
