Gap between Christmas and New Year
Hallo ihr da draußen!Hope everyone had a good Chrsitmas and a Happy New Year (though the latter is still to come I believe). I'm still in Germany twisting my thumbs (not quite sure if this is a generally accepeted expression in English but it works more than fine in German so I thought I should give everyone an insight into the highly sufisticated German culture and linguistic possibilities!). Also, to be perfectly honest, I'm not really doing that anyway. In fact, I'm working on my applications for a summer internship whilst thinking about just twisting my thunmbs and watching TV. Apropos (French) TV, I watched the worst movie ever, ok is wasn't that bad, but it certainly won't be on my DVD wish list next year (neither will any other film due to the sad reality that such a list does not exists!). The film, by the way, is Narnia, for which we had to pay extra because of it's extensive length. Particular pity, since if I had been the cutter/director/producer I would have mamaged to make the film half as long without leaving out anything of the slightest improtance.
Oh well, have to go now to keep fit and go swimming (and eat "ne Pommes" [chips] afterwards).
Hope to see you all soon!

The English generally say they are twiddling their thumbs. I haven't heard many people use twisting :-)

I'm afraid swimming won't make you fit, nothing short of plastic surgery could stop you from looking like a bulldog chewing a wasp.

Well, to be honest I think even plastic surgery would have to face severe difficulties!
At least I have a new year's resolution now!
So, Happy New Year to everyone (even those traitors in Berlin [if you manage to use the internet]).
Alles, alles Gute für's neue Jahr und guten Rutsch (und denkt immer an den Schnee und die glatten Strassen!!!!)
bis dann (April)

Come to think of it, hanging around with that Finnish girl probably helps … in the same way that killing all other women in the world would.
