Reporting to you live............

From hell :-)

What a weekend, damn! I can happily report that all the 3 sins were indeed raised up the flagpole and saluted too.

Spend way too much money at Bar Rouge for a party for which I invited no more than 20 people. 60 showed up. I know more guys and girls here than I thought!

Going to Windows, Murals, buying a shitload of DVDs and talking in Cloud 9 (which was literally in the clouds) with a spaced out Yank on mushrooms about everything and nothing.

Both Kenny and Jani left with a smile on their faces, which is all the reward I need. ;-)

Now sloooooooooooooowly recovering.

The 3 Heavenly Sins

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seven_deadly_sins

Everyone's heard of or read about the 7 deadly sins.

Most well known is the version which mentions Lust (fornication), Gluttony, Greed, Sloth (Laziness) , Wrath (Anger), Envy and Pride.

Now my house-guests have said to me that at least 3 of these are wrongfully known as sinfull, and therefore we are going to spend this upcoming weekend throughoughly examining Lust, Gluttony and Sloth. Basically, we're going to chase girls, drink a LOT and do nothing else.

O, joy!

I'll report back (probably from Hell) next week. And even if I *do* get sentenced to a life of eternal fire and brimstone, I won't mind much. Can't be warmer than Shanghai in summer, and everybody knows, all the fun people go to Hell anyway.

Heaven


I mean, tell me how it's possible to not fall head over heels with a place that looks like this.


Esp. when sitting in something like this. I love this car. Driven almost 800KMs in this specific example.

Only 2 more months..............

Countdown...........

The Countdown starts.

One month and one day before I'll terrorize the European roads again. So watching the weeks fly by, what do I do?

Nothing (as usual). Went out, got a massage, relaxed. I think it's the air here. Anyway, the coming week will be busy enough with company dinners (Chinese NY), Aiesec dinners (tonight in fact), bowling, drinking, eating and last but not least preparing for Jani's arrival this Friday.

Cannot wait, although I am very happy to have a fair few days to recover when he leaves. If experience tells me anything, I'll need them!

It's a man's world (thanks to Germany)

Ripped this off from the internet, copyright: my twin personality!

Celebrate March 20th - Steak And Blowjob Day
Guys, you know the drill. Every 14th of February you get the chance to display your fondness for a significant other by showering her with gifts, flowers, dinner, shows and any other baubles that women find romantic.

Every Valentines day you rack your brains for that one special, unique gift that will show your wife or girlfriend that you really do love them more than any other. Now ladies, I'll let you in on a little secret; guys really don't enjoy this that much. Sure seeing that smile on your face when we get it right is priceless, but that smile is the result of weeks of blood, sweat and consideration. Another secret; guys feel left out. That's right, there's no special holiday for the ladies to show their appreciation for the men in their life. Men as a whole are either too proud or too embarrassed to admit it.

Which is why a new holiday has been created.

March 20th is now officially "Steak and Blowjob Day". Simple, effective and self explanatory, this holiday has been created so you ladies finally have a day to show your man how much you love him. No cards, no flowers, no special nights on the town; the name of the holiday explains it all, just a steak and a BJ. Thats it.

Finally, this twin pair of Valentine's Day and Steak and Blowjob Day will usher in a new age of love as men everywhere try THAT much harder in February to ensure a memorable March 20th. Its like a perpetual love machine!

The word is already beginning to spread, but as with any new idea, it needs a little push to start the ball rolling. So spread the word, and help bring love and peace to this crazy world. And, of course, steak and BJs.

Headache

*ring ring ring*

- "Helpdesk"
-- "Yes, internet,e-mail and intranet are all out"
- "Yes, we know"
-- "It's been out for a few hours now and I REALLY need some info of the intranet for a meeting later today"
- "Yes, we know. We know there's a problem. We informed you all that we are fixing it"
-- "Huh? What do you mean?"
- "We send an e-mail round with the expected time on which we think it'll be fixed, didn't we?"
-- *stunned silence*

I refrained from asking how he thought we could receive the mail, when our F**KING mail server is shagged...................

Siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh.

Chrzan!


Have a new colleague, and it's an old colleague!

Ewa moved to the marketing department, and because she visited Poland recently, brought some Chrzan with her for me to consume.

This is a Polish spicy sauce (for lack of a better word) I've gotten addicted to in the past years. Nice. No space for Zubrowka (Vodka) though. Shame.

So now friends have imported stuff from Germany, Netherlands, Belgium and Poland for me. All I need now is some Swedish stuff and all is good! But hej, till then, I'll make due with Absolut.

Sicher, Dicker.....

Spend a nice weekend at Bar Rouge, Mural, Super Brand Mall and my mates places again.

Bumped up the record to 3 for 8 days, keeping to my new years resolutions, and listening to some new music. Mostly crap German stuff :-)

Where's the Tsing Tao?

White powder

No Carlos, no cocaine ;-)

It's snowing in Shanghai! No, I'm not getting high on Carlos' supply, but it's actually cold enough for Shanghai for it to receive some snow. Damn. It's not much, and it's melting within 10 seconds of landing, but still.

My right foot is twitching. I need a BMW with some LSD*.
