Wedding!

G's brother J and his girlfriend N got married today! Here's a little update before the evening festivities begin...!

Single friends

Break-ups are sad, but it's less sad if you think about it this way: the hot-singles population of Copenhagen just increased by two.

Relatively nice

Bremen is a beautiful city, but weather-wise, keep your expectations low, low low. (Oh, and the wedding is G's brother's! woo woo! (not ours))

Snot Pump

My body is like a snot-producing machine.

Stay away from the news

I'm not that much of a hypochondriac but the news and WebMD are terrible things when you're feeling sick and vulnerable. La la la I can't hear you la la la.

Blaw blaw blaw

G picked the title today.

Hourly Comic 2013

Phew. So there it is, my first ever hourly comic! Sorry for the weird images sizes, but I hope you enjoy it!

Matches

If you've never heard of this before, I kid you not, it works like magic. We always keep a box of matches in the bathroom and never have to buy toilet deo!

*edit*
Sorry, more precisely, I meant lighting a few matches (1-3 or so) and blowing them out!

Fizzy

I've been living here for nearly 3 years now, but it kind of occurred to me today how obsessive Germans are about fizzy water and how they mix fizzy water with everything, which makes me wonder why other countries don't do it because it's awesome. Especially Apfelschorle (or Apfelsaftschorle). Our friend Adam put the Germans' love for Apfelschorle really well in his article How to be German:

"You know in movies when people go to therapy and then the therapist asks them to create a happy place. A safe, tranquil spot they can turn to when the world gets too big and scary. Usually it’s a beach, or a rocking chair on the front porch of an idyllic childhood home? For Germans, that happy place is swimming naked in a lake of Apfelsaftschorle."

I would also happily swim in a lake of Apfelschorle. Probably not naked, though, because I'm not quite that German yet.
