Yet, it didn't take me much time till I found out the second weakness of Vietnam's population: poverty!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Almost 30% of Vietnamese live below the national poverty line and many people have less than 1 USD a day to live with (even worse, USD is not even the official currency of Vietnam). Many people cannot afford a second car or going to the hairdresser daily. The girls on the picture below never owned a playstation and probably never will! Instead, they have to play with toys made of grass and are outside most of the day.  This poor conditions obviously give cause for concern!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_z-py6rhiezM/R860ut-3Y0I/AAAAAAAAALI/Hd_xinTDyFo/s1600-h/P1050592.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_z-py6rhiezM/R860ut-3Y0I/AAAAAAAAALI/Hd_xinTDyFo/s320/P1050592.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5174271736605532994" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;However, those who know the attitude of Vietnamese can be sure they do everything to improve their financial status. Finding a job is one of the most effective ways to escape the poverty trap.&lt;br /&gt;As one of the biggest obstacles is to write an application I, Mr.Fabulous myself, decided to consult the poor to help them getting a job.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At the following sample I will demonstrate the universal recommendations which I taught to the Vietnamese:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_z-py6rhiezM/R86-Bt-3Y1I/AAAAAAAAALQ/qMd-Y9h0pUU/s1600-h/Application.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_z-py6rhiezM/R86-Bt-3Y1I/AAAAAAAAALQ/qMd-Y9h0pUU/s400/Application.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5174281958627697490" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;1. With a date which is far in the future, you demonstrate that you are fore-sighted and optimistic thinking. You show the ability to plan well-ahead.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. Don't use the usual "Dear Mr./Ms. ...". Instead, a greeting such as "Excuse me Mister" or "Hey ho, Mr. Joe" makes your application get the readers attention from the beginning on. Also, just use the masculine form to indicate that you are not satisfied with talking to less powerful people (in Vietnam most higher ranking people are men).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. Start the application with a question to demonstrate that you are in the position of power!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. Often use the imperative form which indicates that you are a good leader. Repeat this imperative as often as you can and emphasize it by using bold letters and bigger size!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. Be self-confident!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. At this point of time, the reader will be absolute sure to offer you the job position. To avoid latter difficulties exactely tell the reader what he can expect from you when you are his superior in some weeks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style=""&gt;&lt;div style="" id="ftn1"&gt;&lt;p class="MsoFootnoteText"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB"&gt;7. Finally, make the reader fully aware of the importance that he acts immediately and there is no time to waste!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;With theses seven simple steps, there is a 100% chance that you will immediately be employed. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Goodbye!&lt;br /&gt;Mr.Fabulous&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p class="MsoFootnoteText"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoFootnoteText"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16723903-4523258002879345650?l=mcfabulous.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/feeds/4523258002879345650/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16723903&amp;postID=4523258002879345650&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/4523258002879345650'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/4523258002879345650'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/2008/03/dear-friends-and-people-who-claim-to.html' title=''/><author><name>Mr. Fabulous</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01394866517785174593</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp1.blogger.com/_z-py6rhiezM/R860ut-3Y0I/AAAAAAAAALI/Hd_xinTDyFo/s72-c/P1050592.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16723903.post-5593001126091695052</id><published>2008-02-01T10:52:00.002Z</published><updated>2008-02-14T15:21:12.552Z</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;Soon after my arrival  I realized the first weakness of Vietn&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;am - motorbikes!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_z-py6rhiezM/R6MALIfDmII/AAAAAAAAAJ4/QXEctoV8fZA/s1600-h/P1030936.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_z-py6rhiezM/R6MALIfDmII/AAAAAAAAAJ4/QXEctoV8fZA/s320/P1030936.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5161969789153024130" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;Being in &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;Vietnam&lt;/st1:country-region&gt; without riding the motorbike (moped) is like visiting &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;France&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt; w&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;ithout eating frog legs.

Beware the flow!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;Occasionally, especially at night time, drivers&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt; sometimes enter&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_z-py6rhiezM/R7GHPyOJsHI/AAAAAAAAAKY/hai1jYiCkvU/s1600-h/P1040528.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_z-py6rhiezM/R7GHPyOJsHI/AAAAAAAAAKY/hai1jYiCkvU/s200/P1040528.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5166058952819585138" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt; some state of flow when riding the motorbike. Symptoms are feeling immortal, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;driving slalom between the other motorbikes. Lights at the roadside are melting into surreal pictures and your mind is fading. In fact, some people have reported that driving &lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;Saigon&lt;/st1:place&gt; late at night is the closest you can get to freedom in&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt; your life!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;2. Make use of human shields!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When turning left at an intersection, other vehicles will always come from the front. A good option is to position yourself right next to another motorbike having the same intention but staying a bit behind, so that the other acts like a human shield. However, be aware that sometimes others will use you, too.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;3. Don’t pay attention!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is very important not to show other people that you are attentive. Otherwise people get confused and don’t know what you are doing next. Without paying attention, e.g. when turning off to the right, people will take care not to rush into you in order to avoid sratches on their vehicles.&lt;/p&gt;4. &lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;Take the shortest way!&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Vietnamese always take the shortest way, no matter if it is therefore necessary to drive the wrong way in a one-way road or circle or on the pedestrian way. Always pay attention to all directions (including overhead and beneath).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;5. Respect authority!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;The following hierarchy of vehicles on the s&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;treets must be strictly adhered to (beginning with the highest):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_z-py6rhiezM/R7GLJCOJsJI/AAAAAAAAAKo/o0PzMIaCq3I/s1600-h/P1020946.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_z-py6rhiezM/R7GLJCOJsJI/AAAAAAAAAKo/o0PzMIaCq3I/s200/P1020946.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5166063234901979282" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;- Trucks&lt;br /&gt;- Buses&lt;br /&gt;- Taxis&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;- Other cars&lt;br /&gt;- Motorbikes&lt;br /&gt;- Mopeds&lt;br /&gt;- Bicycles&lt;br /&gt;- Pedestrians&lt;br /&gt;The smallest mistake will result in immediate death!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;6. Imitate foreigners!&lt;br /&gt;Foreigners enjoy immunity among police men, e.g. when driving without drivers license or drunk. Therefore Vietnamese should be advised to pretend being a foreigner. This implicates  wearing a "Good Morning Vietnam" or "Same Same but Different" t-shirt (ideally with a pillow&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt; beneath),  shorts and Birkenstock.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;7.

Therefore much attention must be paid to care about it, e.g. taking it out for dinner.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Beside introducing the commandments I also forced people to wear helmets. The result can be seen in the following picture:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_z-py6rhiezM/R7GVniOJsLI/AAAAAAAAAK4/rgMmADPlC30/s1600-h/motorbikes_before_after.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_z-py6rhiezM/R7GVniOJsLI/AAAAAAAAAK4/rgMmADPlC30/s320/motorbikes_before_after.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5166074754004267186" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;What can I say? As expected the operation was a remarkable success!  The death rate even decreased below zero. You may ask how this is possible?! The reason is simple:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;After introducing my commandments, driving motorbike in Vietnam became so safe that Vietnamese even began making love and giving birth while riding the moto.

However, this is part of your process of becoming mature (please do not send me any more letters, emails or home made movies- it does not affect the frequency of my blog entries).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Vietnamese censorship prevented me from telling you the truth about my mission in the country. As I am back in my headquarter in the black forrest now there is no way the government can trace me so I can tell you what truly happened in Vietnam:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Everything began several years ago at my meeting with Fidel Castro, the leader of Cuba (pls see picture below). As you remember I visited him  in Cuba and we smoked some cigars (in fact Fidel didn't recognize I had replaced my real cigar with one made of chocolate as I do not smoke; my years at acting school finally payed off) .&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_z-py6rhiezM/R6L4yIfDmGI/AAAAAAAAAJo/PHjvdXl6X3o/s1600-h/Meeting+with+Fidel+Castro.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_z-py6rhiezM/R6L4yIfDmGI/AAAAAAAAAJo/PHjvdXl6X3o/s200/Meeting+with+Fidel+Castro.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5161961663074900066" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;As you may have recognized, Fidel is not seen on TV very often these days. The reason is that he became my commander-in-chief, so he was the one responsible for sending me to Vietnam. What were the reasons behind this? Please allow me to explain:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Vietnam, such as Cuba, is a communistic country. Fidel therefore sympathizes strongly with Vietnamese people but was very concerned about certain Vietnamese issues. My mission therefore was as follows:&lt;br /&gt;"Dear &lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;milord Mr.Fabulous. I feel deeply moved and honoured that you agreed the assignment of this mission. Your task is to identify and eliminate all Vietnamese weaknesses so the country can become a powerful nation. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;Humbly yours, commander-in-chief.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;P.S.: Please accept these cuban bananas as a sign of my esteem."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Even though the bananas didn't come up to my expectations I decided to start my research...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16723903-6258796922212084591?l=mcfabulous.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/feeds/6258796922212084591/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16723903&amp;postID=6258796922212084591&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/6258796922212084591'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/6258796922212084591'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/2008/01/dear-friends-as-you-mentor-i-am-very.html' title=''/><author><name>Mr. Fabulous</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01394866517785174593</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_z-py6rhiezM/R6L4yIfDmGI/AAAAAAAAAJo/PHjvdXl6X3o/s72-c/Meeting+with+Fidel+Castro.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16723903.post-1600285596760566744</id><published>2007-10-26T10:23:00.000Z</published><updated>2007-11-15T08:52:39.111Z</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;Hej,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Living in &lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:city st="on"&gt;Ho Chi Minh City&lt;/st1:city&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt; is great.

It’s definitely a must see and people are extremely friendly. There are amazing pubs and just a few kilometers away you can shoot with real ammunition for only one buck a shot. You can take pictures of yourselves standing on a tank and pretend to save some country (just like Iraq in Southafrica). They have plenty of fast food restaurants, too, and in pubs you get free refill (even though it is just iced tea).&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;      &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;German Perspective:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;Vietnam&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt; isn’t bad. It is much safer than expected and the medical coverage of &lt;st1:city st="on"&gt;Ho Chi Minh City&lt;/st1:city&gt; is ok, not as good as in &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;Germany&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt; though. You can buy fake products here and some of the brand names are spelled incorrect. That is very funny. You can save money as people in restaurants usually do not expect any tip.  If you are on a street market and bargain very hard you can save almost 10% of the price.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;        &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;French Perspective:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;Vietnam&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt; es super. The Vietnamese cuisine is excellent, eh. You can eat a lot of seafood and even frog, eh. Just like at home! Some old Vietnamese can still speak French, which is superb, eh. There is even more we have in common. If they try to speak English its a big effort to get the meaning of what they are trying to say, eh. We also share our history, eh. During almost 100 years our ancestors protected the Vietnamese from their own shortcommings such as excessive superstitions and brought them our superior culture by occupying the country, eh. Vive la &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;France&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt;!&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;British Perspective:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;Vietnam&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt; is sexy.

They even have electricity here and hundreds of motorbikes from Honda. Next to Ho Chi Minh City there is a place you can take pictures of yourself wearing a Vietcong uniform. Oh. Sorry, sorry.

It is very safe and you can cross the border to Cambodia and Laos easily. You can get beers for less than a dollar. Although the Vietnamese hats are not as big as ours, they are funny too.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Easter European Perspective:&lt;br /&gt;Vietnam is very advanced.  The country is rich of natural ressources and the illiteracy rate is extremely low! We like going there because the people consider us as wealthy and educated (not like in Germany e.g.). Unfortunately, there is not bus or train to Vietnam.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Did I miss any perspective?

However, those of you who haven't had the time to read my blog before Wednesday will not be able to read the story. Unfortunately, I got complaints by very important people. They didn't allow me to post the story here, as it will be published in a famous celebrity magazine soon. I'm very sorry for that!

Super undercover secret agent Mr.Fabulous directly reporting from &lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:city st="on"&gt;Ho Chi Minh City&lt;/st1:city&gt;, &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;Vietnam&lt;/st1:country-region&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt;.

For entertainment and pleasure, Ms. Va Nes Sa was supposed to join me. However, two days before our flight something strange happened: Ms.Va Nes Sa also got a message from someone calling himself Mr.YMD, a name we had never heard before.

Actually, it is very cheap. Consider this:&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;Due to the heavy traffic here it is said that inhaling motorbike and car exhaust emissions equals about smoking 20 cigarettes each day. 20 cigarettes would cost about 5 Euro in e.g. &lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;Germany&lt;/st1:country-region&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt;. As I am staying in HCMC for about 100 days, this would mean I had to smoke 2000 cigarettes costing me 400 Euro! Hence, I am able to save this amount without any effort! As I do not even smoke cigarettes I am not only saving, but in fact earning 400 Euro. Great success!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;I didn't get another message from my commander-in-chief so far but I am sure I'll get one soon. I'll post another message, then...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;See you soon,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;Mr.Fabulous&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16723903-8657217528734360814?l=mcfabulous.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/feeds/8657217528734360814/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16723903&amp;postID=8657217528734360814&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/8657217528734360814'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/8657217528734360814'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/2007/10/hej-folks-its-me-again.html' title=''/><author><name>Mr. Fabulous</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01394866517785174593</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_z-py6rhiezM/RwjqSwATJSI/AAAAAAAAAIY/DcxC3w5zXCo/s72-c/P1000175_v.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16723903.post-4660328284698752634</id><published>2007-09-28T18:56:00.000Z</published><updated>2007-09-28T19:05:21.001Z</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Hej guys,&lt;br /&gt; &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;finally, I am able to provide you with more detailed information concerning my next top secret mission. Several months ago I got a message &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;from my commander-in-chief on my toilet paper saying:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;“Dear milord Mr.Fabulous. It is a great honour to meet you under such circumstances even though just on a piece of toilet paper. We need your help! The matter is absolutely urgent. The location is &lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;Vietnam&lt;/st1:country-region&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt;. Please proceed to the next piece of paper…!”&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;Obviously, I was not very surprised to find the message (please note that Mr.Fabulous is never taken by surprise). After taking a short break to chill-out I continued reading the message. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;“It is too unsafe to provide you with all information at this p&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;oint of time. However, it is inescapable for you to move to &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;Vietnam&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt;. There you will get more information. For your entertainment and pleasure Ms.Va Nes Sa is going to join you on this dangerous mission. Humbly yours, Commander-in-Chief”.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;Cries for help in the manner described are no rarity for me. I knew what to do and began my usual super undercover top secret agent workout…&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;Now, I am finally ready to take up the challenge. On Sunday, my flight to &lt;st1:city st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:city&gt; is leaving. Here is what I take with me:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_z-py6rhiezM/Rv1O8gATJRI/AAAAAAAAAIQ/aJ6xMdn-NlE/s1600-h/Utensilien.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_z-py6rhiezM/Rv1O8gATJRI/AAAAAAAAAIQ/aJ6xMdn-NlE/s320/Utensilien.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5115331553053058322" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB"&gt;1. My spy camera. The pictures are processed and s&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB"&gt;ent to my commander-in-chief by email, even before I have pushed the trigger. Also, it allows me to see through walls and even water. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;2. My Vietnamese hat. It is of paramount importance so I am not detected as not being Asian (this would mean immediate execution).&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;3. My teddy bear. If I get kidnapped, I pretend to be a litte boy, cuddling my bear and hoping the kidnappers sympathize with me.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;4.&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;My special USB-Device. It is used to copy intelligence from computers. Besides, it is also an inflatable boat. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;5. My mask. I use this mask to be absolutely anonymous when strolling around. Also, it makes me invisible.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;6. My tripod. This device can be extracted to app. 5 meters, so I am able to climb walls and other barriers.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;7. My laser sword. It is used if I am confronted with 10 or more enemies, trying to do me harm (I don’t use it if I am confronted with less than 10 as I want to save battery).&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;8. My multi-functional knife. As I usually forget to put it out of my hand luggage before my flight, it is of no special use to me in &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;Vietnam&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt;.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;9. My &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;Vietnam&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt; Bible. I use it in situations which I don’t know how to handle (not many indeed).&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;10. My passport. Fake of course, as Mr.Fabulous not really has a country of origin.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;11. My money. Five dollars should be enough. If I need more, I earn it by headhunting.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;12. My secret secret. This device is absolutely secret. Even mentioning it is forbidden.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt; &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;As you see I am well prepared for my mission in &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;Vietnam&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt;. I will keep you informed about the mission. Next entry will be posted from &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;Vietnam soon&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt;. Meanwhile check out my new movies in the india and vietnam gallery section and subscribe to my newsletter (www.mrfabulous.de).&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mr.Fabulous &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16723903-4660328284698752634?l=mcfabulous.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/feeds/4660328284698752634/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16723903&amp;postID=4660328284698752634&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/4660328284698752634'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/4660328284698752634'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/2007/09/hej-guys-finally-i-am-able-to-provide.html' title=''/><author><name>Mr. Fabulous</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01394866517785174593</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_z-py6rhiezM/Rv1O8gATJRI/AAAAAAAAAIQ/aJ6xMdn-NlE/s72-c/Utensilien.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16723903.post-5244458399176902189</id><published>2007-06-15T10:09:00.000Z</published><updated>2007-06-15T10:12:05.295Z</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Long time no see!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I had several things to do, inluding the creation of my very personal homepage:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;www.MrFabulous.de &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Check it out!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This blog will be continued as soon as I am working on my new top secret project!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;See ya,&lt;br /&gt;Mr. Fabulous&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16723903-5244458399176902189?l=mcfabulous.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/feeds/5244458399176902189/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16723903&amp;postID=5244458399176902189&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/5244458399176902189'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/5244458399176902189'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/2007/06/long-time-no-see-i-had-several-things.html' title=''/><author><name>Mr. Fabulous</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01394866517785174593</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16723903.post-607511847613456794</id><published>2007-03-18T00:24:00.000Z</published><updated>2007-03-18T00:27:32.111Z</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Oh my god,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am back in Germany since about two weeks.

I was so busy seeing beautiful sights I was not able to post another entry since Jaipur. Actually, my last entry was the turning point for my trip in India. After I posted the entry I almost missed my train (as 5 (!) Indian people were telling me the wrong direction to the platform) but then I met a nice korean guy in the sleeping compartment with whom I spend the following day. The following cities were just amazing. Crazy (of course) but the people were much more friendly and only 25% were trying to cheat you (not 85% like in Delhi and Jaipur).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After many other beautiful places I arrived in Udaipur, the place where James Bond Octopussy was filmed. I will add some pictures to this blog as soon as I have the possibility.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;India has finally turned out to be a very interesting country, offering unbelievable sights and photo motives. Obviously, it is still not easy to travel but you can manage if you are very patient and also just careful sometimes.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I guess I will post the next entry when I visit my french friend Matthieu in about 4 days.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hope your re fine, too!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fake care,&lt;br /&gt;Fabian&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16723903-117188407637098478?l=mcfabulous.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/feeds/117188407637098478/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16723903&amp;postID=117188407637098478&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/117188407637098478'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/117188407637098478'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/2007/02/my-friends-here-i-am-again.html' title=''/><author><name>Mr. Fabulous</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01394866517785174593</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16723903.post-117112130532323696</id><published>2007-02-10T15:09:00.000Z</published><updated>2007-02-10T15:52:05.556Z</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Dear friends,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;right now, as I am waiting till departure of the night train to Bikaner, I have some time to update my blog and even to upload some pictures. As you can see on the picture below, travelling alone can also be a lot of fun.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4418/1595/320/828321/P1090361.jpg" border="0" /&gt;Since I got sick I was even able to stay in this lovely room for about 24 hours. However, now I have recovered and am able to tell you&lt;strong&gt; the 7 great survival rules for India&lt;/strong&gt;:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Rule: Do not dress like a tourist to avoid catching attention and being an easy target for touts, pickpockets and other bad people. I, for instance, jumped into the role of a professional photographer. Just by putting my big camera on my left shoulder and my tripod on the right, people would not recognize me as tourist anymore!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. Rule: Never pay attention to anyone smiling at you or claiming to help. Better immediately run away, shouting "help"!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. Rule: Randomly change direction every 5 minutes to make it difficult for other people to follow and eventually kill you!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. Rule: Pretend to be totally insane by doin crazy actions e.g. sitting on the sidewalk and getting up again or running in circles while screaming. People will be scared. Be creative!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. Rule: Avoid getting close to suspious people. In India those people are suspicious who do not stare at you. They are the big minority.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. Rule: Never reveal your true identity and intentions. In India, I am only known as Ottmar Haselnussbaum, a guy in his mid-thirties who gave up his farm near Berlin to help people in India to grow better potatoes and sell them to McDonalds. However, due to the beauty of India he has sold all his belongings in order to afford his camera equipment and become a professional photographer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. Rule: If everything fails, however, and someone is trying to do you no good, there is one last chance to safe yourself and your valuables. Go on all fourth and make the sound of a cow - "Muhhh". As cows are holy in India, this might be your rescue of getting away unharmed. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So this is it for today. If I survive the journey with the night train I will post another entry soon!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/4418/1595/200/654900/P1090341.jpg" border="0" /&gt;Cu Fabian&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16723903-117112130532323696?l=mcfabulous.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/feeds/117112130532323696/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16723903&amp;postID=117112130532323696&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/117112130532323696'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/117112130532323696'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/2007/02/dear-friends-right-now-as-i-am-waiting.html' title=''/><author><name>Mr. Fabulous</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01394866517785174593</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16723903.post-117086144049485650</id><published>2007-02-07T15:05:00.000Z</published><updated>2007-02-07T15:18:52.153Z</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Hej folks,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;sorry I was not able to add the pictures of Cambodia but time was running short to my next adventure - 25 days India alone!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After my first three days in New Delhi I can summarize that India is probably the most crazy country I have ever visited. It is annoying, frustrating but also fascinating and amazing at the same time.

As you can imagine the trip was amazing and we enjoyed every moment of it. The first time in my travel history, however, I am not able to put it into words (at least not in so few as to be able to write it down here).

You remember the picture with the woman standing in the window? I told you that I asked my friend about the house? He told me there is nothing special about the house. It was build in 1949 and inhabited by a lonesome woman who was killed under unknown circumstances and whose dead body was never found. As these information didn't help me a lot, I decided not to think about the woman anymore and go on with my life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As you know, I like taking pictures. I discovered something strange on the pictures I took of myself. The last weeks my head is always missing on such pictures (e.g. on the one below). The pictures look like this (I decided not to take the one with the shower scene in b&amp;w):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Neustadt%20Hafen_v.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/Neustadt%20Hafen_v.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;However, nothing to worry about as there is probably something wrong with my camera.

I know for sure we will stay in contact for the rest of our live and we will see each other again. Maybe he will study in Sweden again for his master (I mean the master thesis, not me).

The truth is that nobody sends me e-mails (instead of JaneFuck and cumfor3.com). I just wanted to pretend at least for some days that I am popular. Sorry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Whatever, I promised to give a brief update about my internship at Kraft Foods. After one month I am still very glad because I have great colleagues, interesting and challenging jobs and an office with air conditioner (so wearing suit and tie everyday isn't that hard). That should be enough.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Other news are that the weekend before last one Alex (the Chinese Swedish guy) and Taichi (the Japanese guy) visited me and Da Woon (Korean Girl) last weekend.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Also, I put a lot of pictures like the following (which I took in Glasgow) on my walls but also pictures of my friends ;-)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Image4.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/Image4.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Finally, as I told you, I will honour the first people I got to know in Sweden.

Somehow typical Swedish and somehow not at all. Typical in the sense that he was very unfriendly and often didn't even say "hi" and sometimes (especially when he was drunk) became the party god himself, untypical in the sense that he had long black hair. Strange, but funny guy. ..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sinie&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Silvester_V%3F%3Fxj%3F%3F_05_06%20%2811%29.1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/200/Silvester_V%3F%3Fxj%3F%3F_05_06%20%2811%29.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Sinie has spent most of his life in the corridor, read hundreds of books and was waiting for a job as a teacher. Now he moved to Stockholm, where I visited him already. He is definitely a great guy. Very warmhearted and honest. However, he likes to talk a lot and explain things in such a way that if you haven't listened the first 20 times, you still have at least 10 more chances to do so...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Daniel&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Agustins%20Geburtstag%20006.1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/200/Agustins%20Geburtstag%20006.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Daniel is not so different from Simon. Also waiting for a job as a teacher, also not very communicative (if he isn't drunk) but also very friendly. I'm sure he will become a good teacher...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That's it for today.

I suggest the following:&lt;br /&gt;I will separate you into different groups according to the first letter of your Last Name.&lt;br /&gt;Group A-E is allowed to write an e-mail every first week of the month.&lt;br /&gt;Group F-L is allowed to write every second week.&lt;br /&gt;Group M-V every third week.&lt;br /&gt;Group W every day.&lt;br /&gt;Group X,Y,Z is not aloud at all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Violation will be penalized.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks for your attention.

A lot has happened since I posted my last entry. The most important thing: I have to disappoint you again as I am not able to fulfi&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;ll my promise to write the big final entry for &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;Sweden&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt;. The reason is that all my papers an&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;d evidences were stolen out of my car when we &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;(Vanessa and me) parked it in Gothenburg to visit an amusement park.

After we have been robbed two times already I am beginning to believe these figures…However, Vanessa and me had some very nice days in &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;Sweden&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt; and enjoyed the sunshine. Before I will tell you what happened the last days, I would like to point out my announcement at the end of this entry and the new poll (in red) in which I am asking you a very personal question. The results will be published in some weeks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;Ok, here is a brief version of the things which happened the last weeks:&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;      &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:state st="on"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;Bremen&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/st1:state&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;, my new home:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;As I am an intern at Kraft Foods, &lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:state st="on"&gt;Bre&lt;/st1:state&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:state st="on"&gt;men&lt;/st1:state&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt; will be my new home for the next 6 months. One of the first things I experien&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;ced here was a conversation between a bum and an apple (in fact the apple was only speaking in the bum’s imagination). However, some minutes later I had an imagination by myself. A dog was  driving a car:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/16.06.06%20Robocup%20005.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/16.06.06%20Robocup%20005.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: left;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Honestly, Bremen is a very nice city. If you have the chance you should come over and I can provide accomodation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;The NERD Planet:&lt;br /&gt;Nerds are "technical bright but socially inept persons". They usually are wild-haired and have thick-lense glasses. Many people don't know these people exist, since they usually are only to be found in dark computer rooms, eating pizza and telling jokes nobody understands, for instance  like this one:    "If binary digits are bits, then decimal ones could be dits, and when things get weary, try something less dreary, like playing with trinary tits." (I'm glad I don't understand this joke...).&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/16.06.06%20Robocup%20020.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/16.06.06%20Robocup%20020.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, seeing some nerds walking around in Bremen centralstation I became curious about the reasons they had left their pc. After following some nerds for a couple of minutes I realized there was some kind of nest nearby. It was an exhibition called "Robo-Cup" where robots play soccer and similar things against each other.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/16.06.06%20Robocup%20042.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/16.06.06%20Robocup%20042.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;You can imagine that it was very strange for me when I suddenly was surrounded by those people. However, I learned a lot from them, e.g. that robots like the one on the picture are going to beat the world champion in 2050. At first I didn't believe it but then I thought of Italy, and I guess even the Sony Dogs could beat them...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Korean Invasion:&lt;br /&gt;Beside Germans I think Koreans are probably the most enthusiastic soccer fans. &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/23.06.06%20Korean%20Girls-18.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/23.06.06%20Korean%20Girls-18.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;I had the luck to be able to watch Korea against Switzerland in Hannover (although not in the stadium) with 5 korean girls who were also staying in my place in Bremen for some time (although they spent most of the time in the bathroom). At every moment a korean player touched the ball (even if he was defense player and miles away from the opposite goal) the girls screemed unimaginable loud.  Great experience! On the picture below you can see Eunhee, Ara, Gowonaaaa and Nariaaaa (from left). Sunyoung is the girl with glasses and the incredible big smile in the middle on the other picture. From my point of view everyone should have a korean friend!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/23.06.06%20Korean%20Girls.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/23.06.06%20Korean%20Girls.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Finally, I also started my internship at Kraft Foods, but I will tell you more details next time.&lt;br /&gt;Before I finish I have to make an important announcement:   &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;As I am sitting in my room alone at the moment and hearing sad music, I am thinking about all the people I got to know last semester. I realized that I didn’t really mention a lot about them in this blog, although they were the most important part why I enjoyed &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;Sweden&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt; so much. Therefore, I will dedicate the last part of the following entries to friends with whom I shared something special. The order will be more or less chronologically. I know this is dangerous since there is always the possibility that I forget someone but I hope I don't. You can also comment on my dedication under the articles.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;Tack sa mycket.

The first night in Växjö, my father decided to stay in my place, so my brother and me had to take the car in order to drive to the youth hostel. Although I hadn't been there before, I thought I knew where it was located, about 10 km away from Växjö in a calm and offside recreation area next to a lake. When we came there, the only house we could see, was the house you can see on the picture below. It looked quite scary like the house in psycho (but in this case without any grandmother ;-), nevertheless we were trying to find the flower pot, under which the key  to our room should be hidden (as the youth host had told us on the phone). Unfortunately we could neither find the flower pot, nor the key. After about 30 minutes of searching we realized it couldn't be our youth hostel and finally found it about 2 km away. As the (psycho) house looked so scary, we decided to take some pictures the next night...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/psycho-house.1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/psycho-house.2.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Cu soon,&lt;br /&gt;Fabian&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16723903-114856815256442823?l=mcfabulous.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/feeds/114856815256442823/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16723903&amp;postID=114856815256442823&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/114856815256442823'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/114856815256442823'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/2006/05/update-i-didnt-want-to-conceal-that-my.html' title=''/><author><name>Mr. Fabulous</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01394866517785174593</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16723903.post-114780137698847031</id><published>2006-05-16T17:15:00.000Z</published><updated>2006-05-17T08:26:00.450Z</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Hej ho,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;first, a picture of someone which shall remind us that there are things in life which are MUCH more important than any internship, job etc.:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/01.05.06%20Heidelberg%20138.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/01.05.06%20Heidelberg%20138.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;However, as I promised, I will also tell you the results of my job interviews. And the decision is taken. Yesterday I got a call from Kraftfoods on my answering machine to call back in order to get to know my result. About 1 hour ago I also had a call from Procter &amp; Gamble on my answering machine, asking me to call back, too. So I did. The man (with whom I had my last interview) told me that he was in a hurry, so he told me he would call me tomorrow morning.  However, as I was really excited I wanted to know the result. "The internship at P&amp;amp;G won't happen!" ....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After having travelled more than 6.000 km to be in the final round for the internship, this is not the nicest answer to hear, that's what I can tell you. I am really interested to get to know the reasons...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One minute after this conversation I decided to call Kraftfoods (the second biggest food company in the world). Bam! I got the internship! The funny thing, I am working on the current focus project of Kraftfood which is called Tassimo, a joint venture between Kraftfoods and Braun (Braun belongs to P&amp;G).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, what is the outcome of my two weeks of travelling through Germany, doing a marketing seminar at P&amp;amp;G and several job interviews?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Never trust your feelings about an interview&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Never try to bend yourself in an interview to fit into the culture of the company, because your interview partners are experienced and professionals&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Never criticise a company during an informal lunch meeting, because it could be that this person is coincidently doing a job interview with you some days later ;-)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Never rely on the German ICE-train, as it is (almost) always delayed&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;In conclusion, if P&amp;amp;G or not, if you get a phonecall from Unilever the day after you have told them that the decision has been taken and they try to persuade you to rescint the consent and join their company, you know that you are on the right track! However, I stick to my decision!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Beginning on the 26th of june I will be in Bremen, in the North of Germany, doing my internship at Kraftfoods and enjoying life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;See you soon,&lt;br /&gt;Fabian&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16723903-114780137698847031?l=mcfabulous.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/feeds/114780137698847031/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16723903&amp;postID=114780137698847031&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/114780137698847031'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/114780137698847031'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/2006/05/hej-ho-first-picture-of-someone-which.html' title=''/><author><name>Mr. Fabulous</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01394866517785174593</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16723903.post-114772725630346927</id><published>2006-05-15T21:02:00.000Z</published><updated>2006-05-15T21:07:36.316Z</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Hej folks,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am sorry but I cannot tell you the result of my final interviews today, as P&amp;G need some more time.

After having spent 3 days of my life in the Procter and Gamble office near Frankfurt I am still fighting for getting an internship there. After my application in January, doing an online test about my personality, travelling to Stockholm to do an intelligence test, flying to Frankfurt to do some kind of assessment center and a job interview, I still have two more interviews to come if I am lucky. Right now I have already travelled more than 4000km just to be in the 3rd of the 5th round. Unbelievable...I hope it will be worth it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Besides I have to travel around through Germany to do some other job interviews (in case P&amp;G doesn't need a highly motivated intern like me) and spend my days in the train while the weather is so nice and in Sweden the party week has already started ("Don't travel between 8th and 14th of May because it is the week with the biggest parties ever" Yehaaa.).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Whatever, we'll see what happens.

Instead, I will continue with my experiences in Russia. So much new events happen in my life right now so I have to hurry up a little to bring this story to an end...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Russia is a poor country. For instance a lot of girls even cannot afford clothes. They spend the nights in discos and pubs dancing to get warm. Obviously I wasn't allowed to document this fact with pictures, but I guess most of you naughty little beggars know where to get nude pictures anyway...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But Russia is not only poor in the material sense. It is also poor when it comes to "love". (I don't really know what my intention with this sentence is, but I thought it sounded very profound). Almost as profound as the sentence on a wall in St. Petersburg. This, indeed, is profound to the max!&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/22.03.06%20St.Petersburg-90.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/22.03.06%20St.Petersburg-90.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;This brings us directly to another picture.

Till now he failed in job interviews everytime because he always refused to take of his stupid looking cap. It is part of his philosophy, to "wear white, seem bright". He is single, but his picture on www.flirt-alarm.ru is in the top 30, so his chances are not that bad.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Isabella and Alexander (Bride and Fiancé):&lt;br /&gt;They met each other when Alexander was driving through downtown at night in order to make love for a small amount of money. At this time Isabella just walked down the street in order to find a pub, but she was lost. When she saw Alexander's car, she stopped him in order to ask for the way (Alex was driving really slow to check out the other girls at the street). Alex thought she was the person he wanted and asked her how much he would have to pay to buy a place in her heart (this was a secret code among suitors and hoares who always had to be careful of undercover cops). Obviously, she didn't know this secret code and fell in love immediately. However, Isabella does not really understand why she is not allowed to tell this romantic story to Alex's friends...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Svetlana:&lt;br /&gt;Svetlana knows the secret code...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Igor:&lt;br /&gt;Igor is Vladimir's brother. He is jealous of his brother, because he not even made it into the top 200 on www.flirt-alarm.ru. As a revenge he put some clue in Vladimir's cap. This event took place about 3 months ago. Vladimir hasn't noticed it yet...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Valeria:&lt;br /&gt;Valeria is in love with Vladimir, but she is afraid to tell him. She is seldom at home, as she always travels to different places with internet access to vote for Vladimir on www.flirt-alarm.com. (you cannot do this from the same computer). From Vladimir's 600 votes she has given him 530. This is her way to show him her love...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As you can see a very interesting constellation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;See you soon,&lt;br /&gt;Fabian&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16723903-114441206422380454?l=mcfabulous.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/feeds/114441206422380454/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16723903&amp;postID=114441206422380454&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/114441206422380454'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/114441206422380454'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/2006/04/russian-standard-part-3-as-i-already.html' title=''/><author><name>Mr. Fabulous</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01394866517785174593</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16723903.post-114399746280632439</id><published>2006-04-02T17:03:00.000Z</published><updated>2006-04-07T00:00:00.956Z</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Russian Standard - Part two (24 people left),&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;after sleeping, eating breakfast and going to toilet we did a guided tour to get to know the city of St.Petersburg. With almost 5 million inhabitants St. Petersburg is Russia's second biggest city. The history is really fascinating as in almost every building someone was murdered. But why not...&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/22.03.06%20St.Petersburg-12.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/22.03.06%20St.Petersburg-12.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To summarize the city in a few words we could say that&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/22.03.06%20St.Petersburg-14.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/22.03.06%20St.Petersburg-14.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; St.Petersburg is awesome. Awesome to the max! Even though it was minus 10 degrees, Russian girls are dressed up with a mini skirt. In fact, shogo (my japanese friend) and me even saw a woman with a miniskirt and no underwear (although we were immediately closing our eyes when we discovered it). Cultural Russian experience.&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/26.03.06%20St.Petersburg-10.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/26.03.06%20St.Petersburg-10.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By the way I remember a joke about St. Petersburg: "Is it true that the cosmonaut Juri Gagarin has won a mercedes in Moscow?" "Kind of, but in fact it wasn't the cosmonaut Juri Gagarin but a carpenter instead, and his name wasn't Juri Gagarin but Boris Iwankowitch. Also, it didn't take place in Moscow, but in St.Petersburg and it wasn't a mercedes but a bike and he didn't win the bike but it was stolen." Hahaha.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Also, since Russia was a communist country, you can find statues almost everywhere (actually there should be a picture of a statue here, but I am to lazy to upload it). We were really lucky this day because we were able to witness a real execution in the middle of St. Petersburg. &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/22.03.06%20St.Petersburg-33.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/22.03.06%20St.Petersburg-33.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;A great experience, even though the two participants were members of our group. They were chosen randomly just to demonstrate the power of the police.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After this demonstration we finished our guided tour and visited the world famous "Hermitage" Museum. At the entrance I was asked for my name. As usual I answered:&lt;br /&gt;"I am the man with no name, McFabulous". &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/22.03.06%20St.Petersburg-57.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/22.03.06%20St.Petersburg-57.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;We could enter for free...&lt;br /&gt;A young woman offered us a private tour even including "some real emotions" but we refused. The Hermitage Museum not only contains over 3 million art pieces, it also employs about 1000 people since there is one guard (sleeping) in almost every room. After so much art and information we tried to lose our memory in a pub in the evening.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Next time I will tell you about the empress who promised to wear a different dress everyday. When she died 15.000 dresses were found in her wardrobe.

For me, McFabulous, this meant going on a trip to the United States of Russia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The trip, consisting of 25 students from different Swedish universities and our bus driver, first made stop in Helsinki, Finland.&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/21.03.06%20Helsinki-5.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/21.03.06%20Helsinki-5.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Since this report is mostly about Russia, here only some adjectives and substantives connected to the city:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;sunny, cold, ferry, cathedral, hotel, sauna, good, finish, walk, frozen, hot, sea&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/21.03.06%20Helsinki-53.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/21.03.06%20Helsinki-53.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;You are almost unlimited in the way you can put these words together to get an idea of Helsinki. However, some sentences obviously make more sense than others, e.g. "the sea was frozen and it was cold, but the finish sauna in the hotel was hot" vs. "there was a cathedral in the sunny sauna which was frozen". I think you got the point!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2nd day: Crossing the Border&lt;br /&gt;On the way to the Russian border we passed a lot of trucks standing beside the road and waiting to pass. According to our bus driver the "waiting line" sometimes is longer than 40 kilometers and it takes several days to pass the border. &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/22.03.06%20St.Petersburg-1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/22.03.06%20St.Petersburg-1.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;We had to show our passports several times but everything went right. At least so far, but one of our group members was stupid enough to take a picture (which is illegal of course). He was shot immediately. As we hadn't known him so well the situation was not that sad and so we left his body behind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A few kilometers after the border our driver began writing and receiving sms busy as a bee. After some time a car which was heading towards us made a u-turn in front of us. We followed the car to the next parking area. Coincidently the man had some cigarettes and alcohol and we had the necessary mediums of exchange...&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/22.03.06%20St.Petersburg-2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/22.03.06%20St.Petersburg-2.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finally we arrived in St.Petersburg.

We took his car and drove to the location which the Department had given me. Unfortunately we got lost, so we had to ask some people at the road, how to find the secret SDLA Headquarter. When we arrived we became somewhat surprised. The Headquarter was located on an island...&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/25.02.06%20Schottland%20092.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/25.02.06%20Schottland%20092.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What should we do? We decided to take the secret underwater tunnel, which was built during World War 2. Fortunately, we could afford the toll.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There it was, the secret Headquarter. In unbelievable few minutes I masterminded a plan, how to succeed our mission.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/26.02.06%20Schottland_Plan.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/26.02.06%20Schottland_Plan.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;First, we would park the car next to the other one in exactely the same position (to save parking space). Then,  McK  (my friend) would move to position 2. There he would try to catch the attention of the Drugloards in the buidling by performing an outstanding spectacle, including folkdance, magic tricks, etc. Meanwhile, I would advance to position 3, climb up the wall and crouch to position number 4, placing the bomb I had handicrafted in accordance to a McGyver's Guide.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The plan was so good, nothing could go wrong. And so we parked the car and moved to our positions. McK did his best performance and it was difficult for me not to watch him perform. But professional as I am I resisted and placed the bomb at the intended position. Till the bomb would explode, I still had some time left, so I decided to have a look at the interior of the secret Headquarter:&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/26.02.06%20Schottland_Campus%20011_v.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/26.02.06%20Schottland_Campus%20011_v.0.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;I looked at my watch and realized the bomb would explode in several minutes. I ran out of the building and jumped into the car in which my friend was already waiting. As we drove away with app. 200 km/h we heard the noise of the exploding headquarter behind us. It was like: "Krazkabumtschakakakakarrumbumbumraffdidida". The first time after being discredeted to an ex-special agent, I saw my friend smiling again. We said goodbye to each other and I flew back to Sweden. There I got my remuneration, spending 10 days with the amazing "Vanessa Wartusch" (see picture below).&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/01.03.06%20G%3F%3Fteborg%20Balett%20030.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/01.03.06%20G%3F%3Fteborg%20Balett%20030.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Right now I am sitting in my room, relaxing from the stresses and strains of being a secret agent.

I decided to do some sightseeing in and around Edinburgh. &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/25.02.06%20Schottland%20011.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/25.02.06%20Schottland%20011.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;My friend, the ex-secret agent accompanied me.

In perfect Turkish I responded "Evet." After a certain amount of time I got my Kebab, but something seemed strange. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;From my experiences in &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;Turkey&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt; I knew that no Turkish man would ever forget to offer a tea. I reacted immediately, threw the Kebab on the ground and ran out of the shop. What I expected happened. The "turkish" guy had placed a bomb in my kebab, which expl&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;oded just after I jumped out of the danger zone.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/25.02.06%20Schottland_Nacht%20018.1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/25.02.06%20Schottland_Nacht%20018.1.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;However, I still was in immense danger since the evil guys had noticed that I survived their trap.

Just after I got back from Cuba, I wanted to take some pictures on the lake, when suddenly the ice broke. Since then I was frozen till yesterday, when someone found me. I know, this is no excuse. Shame on me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One issue I want to talk about today is that a lot of people asked me how I managed to be on a picture with my friend Fidel. The following assumptions were taken:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;The picture was taken in a wax museum&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;This is one of the most bizarre assumptions. You should be realistic. Why should there exist a wax figure of me? And why would a famous person like Fidel Castro visit a wax museum to take a picture with my wax figure? Next time you should think about it more intensively...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Fidel is only a body double, and in fact an exchange student in Växjö&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;Although this would be a possibilty (e.g. some exchange students had to sell their razors to afford coming to Sweden) it is not true either...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;The picture is processed with a special software, e.g. Paint Shop Pro&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;When I heard about this assumption I had to laugh several minutes because it is also rather silly. Everybody should know that something like this is impossible. I guess I don't have to go into detail why...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All these discussions made me clear that my report wasn't easy to believe for you. First, I couldn't understand why, but then I realized that maybe some of you haven't even met a president or political leader so far. At least that is my explanation for your doubtfulness. However, I would like to put an end to the discussion now, since I already have new business to do.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As some of you might know, I am working as a secret agent besides being a student. This is the reason why I have the pseudonym McFabulous. This morning I got a letter from the Stockholm Police Department. They want me to go to Scotland. I can't tell you more about it yet, but I will after my return.  Maybe there will  even be a car chase or a  gunfight...&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Polizeibrief.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/Polizeibrief.0.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;See you soon,&lt;br /&gt;Fabian&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;P.S.: My guestmap is still very empty so please post an entry on the map.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16723903-114046618566451503?l=mcfabulous.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/feeds/114046618566451503/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16723903&amp;postID=114046618566451503&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/114046618566451503'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/114046618566451503'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/2006/02/mans-gotta-do-what-mans-gotta-do-i-am.html' title=''/><author><name>Mr. Fabulous</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01394866517785174593</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16723903.post-113866249213115722</id><published>2006-01-30T22:57:00.000Z</published><updated>2006-02-04T19:23:10.186Z</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Meeting Fidel Castro,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Shortly after I got the confirmation for my meeting with Fidel, I got a fax with a list of "recommendations" which I should take into account, when I wished to return to Sweden with the same amount of extremities than I came with:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;As Fidel doesn't want anyone to look like him, I had to shave my full-beard. It was a strange feeling, but I got used to it. Also, for the same reason, I shouldn't wear the battle-dress which I usually do.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Because of the tense situation between Cuba and the USA I should avoid any English words. As I speak Spanish fluently this shouldn't be a problem.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;I had to begin smoking cigars.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;Furthermore, I was advised to take a one-way ticket to Cuba, just in case...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;My visit in Cuba&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Friday, 6 o'clock in the morning my plane was leaving from Växjö Airport directly to Havanna, the capital of Cuba. I was picked up at the airport and accompanied by some police cars to the bar "La cucaracha" where I should meet Fidel Castro, Cuba's leader. After enjoying some drinks at the bar, a heavily armed man came and directed me into a secret room. Fidel Castro was already sitting there: "You are taller and more muscular than I thought McFabulous" he said in Spanish.&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Meeting%20with%20Fidel%20Castro.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; cursor: pointer; text-align: center;" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/400/Meeting%20with%20Fidel%20Castro.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;He asked me, whether the man who guided me into the room had offered me a cigar. When I denied the man was executed immediately. Due to the fact that I liked his watch, I asked whether I could have it. Fidel negated, the watch was already promised to one of his sons...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I asked Fidel, why he had invited me to Cuba. He responded, he had read my diary and was impressed about my attitude, opinions and my revolutionary spirit. In other words, my intellectuality. I should help him to write his speeches which often last for several hours. I asked whether it is true, that the freedom of speech in Cuba is enormously constricted, wheron he replied that this is a lie, and if I would tell this to anybody else or publish it on my website, I would be "erased" instantly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finally, I reported him about the bad economical situation in Sweden and asked for financial support but he refused.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After our summit conference and enjoying a traditional performance of some table dancers, we said goodbye to each other. Fidel told me that, although I wouldn't become his personal assistant, he would continue reading my diary and skim my guestbook in search for other potential assistants.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I took the plane back and because of the time difference I arrived in Sweden even before I had left to Cuba, viz. Friday, 5 o'clock in the morning.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Additional information will be published in Times Magazine this week.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Adios muchachos,&lt;br /&gt;McFabulous&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16723903-113866249213115722?l=mcfabulous.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/feeds/113866249213115722/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16723903&amp;postID=113866249213115722&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/113866249213115722'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/113866249213115722'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/2006/01/meeting-fidel-castro-shortly-after-i.html' title=''/><author><name>Mr. Fabulous</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01394866517785174593</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16723903.post-113858631454055782</id><published>2006-01-30T01:56:00.000Z</published><updated>2006-01-30T16:05:31.813Z</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>WOW,&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Times%20Cuba.2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/Times%20Cuba.2.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;just some minutes ago  I got a call from the secretary of the president of Cuba: FIDEL CASTRO!!!&lt;br /&gt;He wants to arrange a meeting with me this week.

Bush and Santa Claus,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;an (most probably) award winning shortmovie which I produced,&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;all my numbers to my secret bank accounts in Zürich, Switzerland,&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;pictures about my experiences during my work as a doctor in Kongo, Africa.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;As you can imagine I felt really bad, but your fan letters helped me to recover.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Did you know that today is the first day of the chinese year? Me neither. But now we all know. I wish you the best and hope that your wishes come true. Only those wishes, which are supposed to harm me, shouldn't.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I took the following pictures with my new camera. You can print them with 20 meters x 30 meters if you want.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Gothenburg City&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/16.01.05_G%3F%3Fteborg%20009.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/16.01.05_G%3F%3Fteborg%20009.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Gothenburg Harbour&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/16.01.05_G%3F%3Fteborg%20061.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/16.01.05_G%3F%3Fteborg%20061.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Finally, I would like to remind you of the new innovation on my page, the GUESTMAP (just below the guestbook). Only Bettina, a good german friend of mine who is responsible for IKEA Germany, managed to post an entry. Certainly, she is one of the most gifted, intelligent and extraordinary persons, but from my point of view, also my more handicapped visitors should be able to do this...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks in advance,&lt;br /&gt;Fabian&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;P.S.: I just made a horrible discovery. There is a girl somewhere on the planet who personates herself as "McFabulous"!!! Worse than that, she tries to destroy my reputation by claiming to be a Hula-Dancer!&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/McFabulous_Replica.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/McFabulous_Replica.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16723903-113846300672410331?l=mcfabulous.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/feeds/113846300672410331/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16723903&amp;postID=113846300672410331&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/113846300672410331'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/113846300672410331'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/2006/01/day-when-my-heart-harddisk-broke-hello.html' title=''/><author><name>Mr. Fabulous</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01394866517785174593</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16723903.post-113775714813402386</id><published>2006-01-20T10:15:00.000Z</published><updated>2006-01-20T12:34:24.376Z</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Some things have changed,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;time flies and things change very quickly. Why is that so? In fact, I don't know. But anyway, here are the several changes which occured compared to last semester:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Volleyball_v.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/Volleyball_v.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;As some of us expected the temperatures fell down and the lakes froze. Leaving the house has become unimaginable since we would freeze immediately and wouldn't defrost before april or may. I know one guy who was frozen and broke into thousand pieces (or was this a movie?).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Vanessa_v.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/Vanessa_v.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;After a great semester, my girlfriend returned to Germany. Since I am back here there is no morning my pillow isn't soaked with tears... In a few minutes I will call her and apologize for this joke. But, as a matter of fact, after six years of relationship I still love her and miss her very much.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Mexico_v.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/Mexico_v.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;You know those people wearing a big hat and drinking alcohol all the time? Those are Mexicans. Last semester I was surrounded by them. Julio, Agustin and Benjamin were my corridor mates and Luz and Monica in my studygroup. It's a strange feeling when you go to bed and nobody is singing and playing the guitar in the other room. It's also strange if you go to the kitchen and someone is offering orange juice. Needless to say that I am missing those bastards.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course there are more changes, which I will talk about the next time. Maybe you have noticed that there is something totally new on my page. On the right side you will find a &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;guestmap&lt;/span&gt; where you can post where you come from and leave a message. Please do so, because CocaCola, my sponsor, needs the data for market research.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks in advance.

In einem meiner Momente der Genialität war mir der Gedanke gekommen, dass der Weihnachtsmann doch existieren könnte. Also machten Vanessa und ich mich auf den Weg um dessen Existenz zu beweisen. Auf unserer Reise hatten wir herausgefunden, dass auch President Bush seine schmutzigen Finger in der Sache hatte und den Weihnachtsmann umbringen wollte. Vergeblich hatten wir die letzten Tage versucht das Quartier des Weihnachtsmanns zu finden. Im 2ten Teil bekamen wir schließlich einen Hinweis, der auf einer Rakete stand, die mir auf den Kopf gefallen war. Die Fabrik des Weihnachtsmanns war in Kiruna...&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Abisko_Kiruna%20093.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/Abisko_Kiruna%20093.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Um schnell voranzukommen nahmen wir für die 100km nach Kiruna einen Schlitten. Da es von Norden nach Süden ging (also bergab), mussten wir natürlich nicht anschieben. Den Schlitten hatte Vanessa von einem kleinen Jungen geklaut, mit den Worten: "Das brauchst du jetzt nicht mehr, geh lieber Playstation spielen. Ich bin Lehrerin, auf Wiedersehen."&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Kiruna_Abreise%20027.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/Kiruna_Abreise%20027.0.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Als wir in Kiruna ankamen sahen wir in der Ferne Rauch aufsteigen. Obwohl sie als unterirdische Mine getarnt war, war uns sofort klar. Das musste die Weihnachtsfabrik des Weihnachtsmanns sein. Vor Aufregung mussten wir erstmal eine rauchen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wir wanderten weiter, dem Rauch entgegen. Vanessa musste mich stützen, da ich immer schächer wurde. Ich musste meine Bürde tragen, der Ring wurde immer schwerer. &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Kiruna_Icehotel%20013.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/Kiruna_Icehotel%20013.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Schließlich erreichten wir den Eingang, keine Rentiere zu sehen, keine Weihnachtsmänner, nur ein Gebäude aus Schnee und Eis. Wir traten durch die Tür. Aber halt. Wir kamen nicht weiter. Zuerst mussten wir ein Rätsel lösen. Es lautete wie folgt: "Are you students? If yes please show your student-id!" &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Kiruna_Icehotel%20016.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/Kiruna_Icehotel%20016.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Diese Situation war zuviel für meinen geschwächten Körper. Ich nässte ein und sank bewusstlos zu Boden.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Als ich wieder zu mir kam, lag ich auf einem Bett aus Rentierfell. Wie lang hatte ich geschlafen. Wo war Vanessa? Warum war meine Hose nass?&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Kiruna_Icehotel%20033.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/Kiruna_Icehotel%20033.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In großer Panik schrie ich instinktiv nach Prof. Dr. Kropp. Nichts passierte.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ich musste mich auf die Suche nach Vanessa machen. Die Weihnachtsfabrik glich einem Labyrinth, überall Räume, menschenleer, keine Anzeichen von Leben oder Jägermeister Girls. Nach einige Minuten, Stunden oder sogar Tagen kam ich in einen blauschimmernden Raum.&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/2005-12%20117.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/2005-12%20117.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wie so oft machte ich auch hier eine schreckliche Entdeckung Auf dem Tresen war ein Glas. Ein Geruchstest ergab: &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/2005-12%20135.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/2005-12%20135.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;GIFT, in hoch konzentrierter Form! Ich sagte zu mir selbst:"Scheiße. Vanessa hat Gift bekommen. Welche Drecksau hatte das verbrochen? Wer wollte meiner Frau das antun? Wer um alles in der Welt könnte so etwas ihr antun." Wie ein ausgebildeter Spürhund verfolgte ich ihre Schleifspuren am Boden. Währendessen dachte ich de ganze Zeit:"Scheiße!" Aber da musste ich durch. Ich musste sie um jeden Preis finden.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ein paar Meter weiter&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Kiruna_Icehotel%20064.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/Kiruna_Icehotel%20064.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; sah ich plötzlich einen Eingang. Ein Helfer von Bush versuchte versuchte den Durchgang zuzumauern, um ihn für ein und alle mal unzugänglich zu machen. Aber nicht mit MrFabulous. Ich machte Hackfleisch aus dieser Person und betrat den dahinter befindlichen Raum.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dort entdeckte ich einen leblosen Körper. Es war Vanessa in ihrer unglaublichen Schönheit, gott sei dank nur bewusstlos. &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Kiruna_Icehotel%20027.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/Kiruna_Icehotel%20027.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Das hatte ich zumindest für den Bruchteil einer Sekunde gedacht, aber dann stellte ich fest, dass sie sich nur bewusstlos gestellt hatte um geheime Infos über unsere Peiniger herauszufinden. Dies war ihr geglückt und sie hatte etwas über eine geheime Geheimtüre erfahren. Wir fanden sie allsgleich und gerieten ins Staunen über das was wir sehen sollten: &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Kiruna_Abreise%20061.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/Kiruna_Abreise%20061.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Überall kleine Wichtelzwerge die fleißig Geschenke bastelten, verpackten, aufgeregt umherliefen, usw. Der Duft von Zimt lag in der Luft, ein Feuer knisterte im Ofen. Vor dem Ofen war ein großer Ledersessel, mit dem Rücken zu uns gerichtet. Wir sahen nur eine rote Zipfelmütze. Das musste er sein, der Weihnachtsmann. Wir waren so aufgeregt ihn tatsächlich gefunden zu haben und fühlten uns wie kleine türkische Kinder, die das erste Mal im Kaufhof an die Spielekonsole kommen. Mit großen Augen liefen wir auf den Sessel zu und riefen: "Weihnachtsmann, weihnachtsmann!" Was wir zu sehen bekommen sollten ließ uns den Atem stocken. Die Person auf dem Sessel drehte sich um. Es war: PRESIDENT BUSH, der President von US und A.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Er begann loszulachen:"Har, har, har. Wenn habt ihr erwartet? Einen alten Mann mit weißem Bart? Wie naiv seid ihr im alten Europa?" Vanessa und ich blieben die Worte im Hals stecken. Bush fuhr fort: " Denkt doch mal nach. Warum werden die Vereinigten Staaten so schlecht regiert? Warum berauben wir das Öl anderer Länder? Natürlich habe ich wenig Zeit mein Land zu regieren. Natürlich brauche ich viel Geld um meine Weihnachtsfabrik in Betrieb zu halten, die ganzen Geschenke zu finanzieren, meine Rentiere zu füttern und nicht zu vergessen die ganzen Logistikkosten. Glaubt ihr etwa ich bekomme das alles umsonst?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Plötzlich machte alles Sinn. President Bush wollte den Weihnachtsmann nicht töten, er selbst war der Weihnachtsmann. Wir hatten ihn also fälschlicherweise verdächtigt, obwohl er eigentlich so ein gutmütiger, wenn vielleicht nicht sogar der gutmütigste Mensch der ganzen Welt ist, der selbstlos und ohne Gewinn jedes Jahr aufs Neue die ganze Welt beschenkt. Meine Theorie über das Nordlicht war also ebenfalls falsch gewesen. Es handelte sich also doch um eine chemische Reaktion.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nachdem wir noch einen Tee getrunken hatten, machten wir uns auf die Rückreise um diese Botschaft zu verbreiten...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ja Leute jetzt wisst ihr die Tatsachen. Ich hoffe, für euch bricht keine Welt zusammen. Dies war gleichzeitig auch vorerst mein letzter Eintrag aus Växjö (allerdings nur bis 15.Januar, dann gehts wieder nach Växjö für mein 2tes Semester).&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Abisko%20069.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/Abisko%20069.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Vanessa und ich wünschen euch allen ein schönes neues Jahr und hoffen euch bald mal wieder zu sehen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bis dahin,&lt;br /&gt;Fabian Heymersson&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nachtrag: Ihr erinnert euch sicherlich noch an unsere super Parkmöglichkeit in einem Parkhaus in Stockholm.  Als wir das Auto hinbrachten hatten wir einen Defekt am Kofferaum (er ging nicht auf). Als wir nach einer Woche wieder ans Auto kamen, war der Kofferraum wie durch ein Wunder repariert. Als Gegenleistung, hatten die netten Mechaniker das Autoradio mitgenommen. Ich denke ein fairer Deal...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16723903-113603534382196987?l=mcfabulous.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/feeds/113603534382196987/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16723903&amp;postID=113603534382196987&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/113603534382196987'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/113603534382196987'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/2005/12/3ter-teil-das-groe-finale-wo-sich.html' title=''/><author><name>Mr. Fabulous</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01394866517785174593</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16723903.post-113578308615569974</id><published>2005-12-28T14:49:00.000Z</published><updated>2005-12-28T21:26:43.826Z</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>2ter Teil: Die größte Sensation auf der ganzen Welt,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wir waren bei dem großen Knall stehen geblieben. Zum Glück war dieser nur in meiner Imagination entstanden. Wir gingen also zu Bett, um unsere Kräfte für den nächsten Tag zu monopolisieren.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tag 3: Aufbruch in die Wildnis&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Abisko_Schlittenhundetour%20002.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/Abisko_Schlittenhundetour%20002.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Aufgrund der Tatsache, dass wir in der Stadt am vorherigen Tag nicht erfolgreich waren, beschlossen wir uns an unserem 3ten Tag auf der Suche nach dem Weihnachtsmann in die Wildnis zu begeben. Da wir insgesamt 24 km zurücklegen mussten brauchten wir natürlich Unterstüzung. Unsere Wahl fiel auf einige Hunde, die wir ein paar Tage in einer Bar zufällig kennengelernt hatten und die uns gleich sympathisch waren. Unglaublich kräfige, ausdauernde, wunderschöne und liebe Tiere. &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Als wir das Hundegeschirr angelegt und die&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Abisko_Schlittenhundetour%20032.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/Abisko_Schlittenhundetour%20032.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; aufgeregten Hunde vor den Schlitten gespannt hatten ging es los. Die Hunde haben so viel Energie, dass sie ständig mit voller Kraft ziehen. Um langsamer zu werden kann man eine Fußbremse betätigen, um zu stoppen muss man eine Art Anker in den Boden hauen oder an einem Baum befestigen. Sobald man allerdings bremst schauen die Hunde vorwurfsvoll zurück, „Hej Dumpfbacke, was soll der Scheiß“ (aus dem Schwedischen übersetzt). Wir dürfen keine Zeit verlieren. Deshalb verrichten die Hunde selbst ihr Geschäft während dem Laufen, indem sie sich währenddessen einfach mitschleifen lassen. Sieht wirklich witzig aus, wie ihr euch sicher vorstellen könnt. Den Schlitten zu lenken war übrigens gar nicht so einfach. Vanessa hängte einige Male nur noch mit den Armen daran und wurde mitgeschliffen (sie sagt es wären mind. 400m gewesen, ich sage max. 50m). Mir passierte das selbstverständlich nicht.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Nach etwa 2 Stunden entdeckten wir plötzlich Spuren im Schnee. Unser Guide deutetete sie:"President Bush! No doubt!" Ein paar Meter weiter fanden wir eine amerikanische Flagge und gebrauchtes Toilettenpapier. Die Hunde identifizierten es ebenfalls als President Bushs. Jetzt bestand kein Zweifel mehr. Wir waren geschockt. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt; &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Abisko_Schlittenhundetour%20022.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/Abisko_Schlittenhundetour%20022.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Der amerikanische President hatte sich selbst auf die Suche nach dem Weihnachtsmann gemacht. Ein Wettlauf mit der Zeit begann. Wir mussten den Weihnachtsmann vor ihm finden. Doch erst machten wir ein tolles Foto mit unseren Hunden.&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Abisko_Schlittenhundetour%20044.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/Abisko_Schlittenhundetour%20044.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;  &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Es ging weiter auf einem zugefrorenen Fluss. Als wir zu einem See kamen, hörten President Bushs Spuren auf. Wir beschlossen den Rückweg anzutreten.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Aber davor schoss ich noch das folgende Bild, das ich später in einen Wettbewerb (Thema: Different View) einstellte. Unter den vielen Kommentare habe ich den charakteristischsten herausgegriffen:&lt;br /&gt;"&lt;span class="medium"&gt;das bild ist schwach, sehr schwach sogar. die augen des hundes sind unscharf, die ohren und pfoten&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="medium"&gt; abgeschnitten - keine spur von aufbau und/oder gestaltung. ich frage mich wirklich, warum man so etwas in einen wettbewerb einstellt. ein bezug zum thema ergibt sich für mich überhaupt nicht, ausserdem heisst´s in den regeln: ein bild pro teilnehmer...." Ich glaube ich habe schon fast gewonnen...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Abisko_Schlittenhundetour%20046.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/Abisko_Schlittenhundetour%20046.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Nach diesem nervenaufreibenden Tag gönnte ich mir die Sauna mit einem australischen Pärchen (Jenny und Alex). Als abends die Bombardierung der Weihnachtsfabrik wieder begann rannten wir schnell nach draußen um dieses zu observieren. So entstand folgendes Bild:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Abisko_Sauna%20002.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/Abisko_Sauna%20002.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tag 4: Scheiße. Eine Rakete fällt mir auf den Kopf.&lt;br /&gt;"Beschissen!" Mit diesem Wort beantwortete Vanessa meine Frage, wie sie den geschlafen hätte. Sofort war mir klar, was vorgefallen sein musste. Bei der Untersuchung des gebrauchten Toilettenpapiers hatte sich Vanessa wahrscheinlich einen tödlichen Virus eingefangen. Die Symptome: Nasenschnupfen und Halsweh. Außerdem war ihr über Nacht ein Geweih gewachsen. &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Abisko_Kiruna%20081_V.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/Abisko_Kiruna%20081_V.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Natürlich erzählte ich Vanessa nichts von meiner Vermutung, um sie nicht zu beunruhigen. Da wir an diesem Tag zur besseren Orientierung einen Hügel erklimmen wollten, mussten wir uns mit Schneeschuhen auf den Weg machen. &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Abisko_Kiruna%20038.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/Abisko_Kiruna%20038.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Oben angekommen posierte ich für einige Fotos (für ein Fashionmagazin). &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Abisko_Kiruna%20053.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/Abisko_Kiruna%20053.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Plötzlich fiel mir etwas auf den Kopf. Ich stürtzte mit mehreren Purzelbäumen den Abhang hinunter und blieb unten regungslos liegen. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Erst als ich einige Stunden später wieder Bewusstsein erlangte konnte mir Vanessa erzählen, was passiert war:&lt;br /&gt;" Hej Fabse. Gut das du wieder wach bisch. Folgendes is gschehe. Eine Rakete vom Bush isch dir auf n' Schädel gfalle. Zum Glück isch se net explodiert." &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt; &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Abisko_Kiruna%20044.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/Abisko_Kiruna%20044.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Ich untersuchte die Rakete und erkannte auf Anhieb einen Aufschrieb: "To Santa Clause's secret Happy Christmas Present Factory, Kiruna, Sweden". Uns war sofort klar was das zu bedeuten hatte. Unverzüglich traten wir den Rückweg an, um uns noch an diesem Tag nach Kiruna zu begeben, wo das große Finale stattfinden würde...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;  &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;  &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16723903-113578308615569974?l=mcfabulous.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/feeds/113578308615569974/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16723903&amp;postID=113578308615569974&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/113578308615569974'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/113578308615569974'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/2005/12/2ter-teil-die-grte-sensation-auf-der.html' title=''/><author><name>Mr. Fabulous</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01394866517785174593</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16723903.post-113571172758761672</id><published>2005-12-27T19:26:00.000Z</published><updated>2005-12-27T19:34:54.110Z</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Hej,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ich hatte bisher noch keine Zeit den 2ten Teil des Berichtes einzustellen.

Es tut mir leid euch bei den Festlichkeiten und dem Rinderhackbraten mit geschnetzelter Leberpastete oder die Fischratatouille flambiert mit Nierensoufflee gestört zu haben.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wie ihr ja in der mail mitbekommen habt, besuchten Vanessa und ich die vergangenen Tage den Weihnachtsmann. Aber hier die ganze Geschichte:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Tag 1: Der Weg dahin&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Eines Abends, Vanessa bügelte gerade meine Wäsche, kam mir der Gedanke, dass der Weihnachtsmann vielleicht doch existiert. Was, wenn wir als Kinder Recht hatten? Was, wenn die Vertuschung des Weihnachtsmann nur eine strategische Täuschung von President Bush&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt; oder dem CocaCola Konzern wäre um die Menschheit von etwas abzulenk&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;en? Ich erzählte Vanessa von meinen Bef&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;ürchtungen und wir beschlossen, uns selbst auf die Suche nach dem Weihnachtsmann zu begeben. Selbst den nicht so priveligierten unter euch sollte klar sein, dass im Norden die größte Möglichkeit besteht den Weihnachtsmann zu finden.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Also düsten wir mit dem Auto los, Richtung Stockholm.  Da die Autobahn  frei war konnten wir beide ein Nickerchen machen. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Nordschweden%20027_Beide.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/200/Nordschweden%20027_Beide.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Dort fanden wir eine günstige Parkmöglichkeit in einem Parkhaus für nur 11&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;0 Euro die Woche (nach 2 Stunden noch günstigerem Parkplatz suchen). Wir stiegen ein in den Polarexpress, der uns nach regulärem Fahrplan in nur 18 Stunden und 18 Minuten (Zufall ???) nach Nordschweden bringen sollte. Nach etwa 12 Stunden kam die Schaffnerin vorbei und es ereignete sich folgendes:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;"English? “ „Yes“. “You know that we are five and a half hours late?” “No!”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-GB"&gt;Ich gab der S&lt;/span&gt;chaffnerin eine Ohrfeige und fing an zu heulen. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Immerhin bekamen wir als Entschädigung Frühstück (eine Scheibe Wurst und Käse, Brot war leider ausgegangen). &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Nordschweden%20025.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/Nordschweden%20025.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Nur einige Minuten verstrichen, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;dann machte mich Vanessa auf etwas aufmerksam. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Als ich aus dem Fenster schaute&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt; sah ich die ersten Vorboten des Weihnachtsmanns.

Noch ein paar Zentimeter höher, dort befanden wir uns. Die Stadt heißt Abisko, hat insgesamt 160 Einwohner und ist 1506 km von Stockholm entfernt, also etwa 3000 km nördlicher als Stuttgart. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Die Sonne geht hier im Winter n&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;iemals auf, trotzdem ist es aber 3 Stunden am Tag relativ hell. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Es ist so&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt; kalt, dass&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt; man sich vorm Rausgehen überlegen sollte, welchen Ges&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;ichtsausdruck man die nächsten Stunden haben möchte.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Abisko%20016.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/Abisko%20016.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Da weit und breit kein Weihnachtsmann oder eine Weihnachtsfabrik zu sehen war, beschlossen wir noch weiter nördlich nach Narvik (Norwegen) mit dem Zug zu fahren. Die Fahrt ging &lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;entlang&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;zuge&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;frorener Seen und Fjorden, tiefen Schluchten und weiten Schneelandschaften.

Schuhe anziehen alleine war nicht möglich. Nach 2 Stunden vergebliche Suchens ging es zurück nach Abisko.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Abisko%20034.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/Abisko%20034.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Wir wohnten in einer kleinen Jugendherberge (Hilton und Marriots gab es leider nicht) mit ein paar anderen Jugendlichen aus Frankreich, England und Mexiko. Abends, als wir schon a&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;lles für die Sauna gepackt hatten guckte der Mexikaner aus dem Fenster und sagte: „Hej bitches, I think you can see the Northern Lights over there!“ (Das ist Englisch und heißt: Hallo Freunde, ich glaube man kann die Nordlichter sehen). Vanessa und ich schauten unverzüglich aus dem Fenster und sahen einen blassen Lichtschimmer, der sich über den klaren Sternenhimmel zog. Ich beschloss die Sauna mit den nackten Französinnen sausen zu lassen. Stattdessen packten wir uns schnell warm ein und liefen los Richtung See.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;(Anm. d. Red.: Ich werde jetzt in Präsens überschwenken, um meinen Worten mehr Ausdruck zu verleihen.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Während unserem Spaziergang schauen wir die ganze Zeit nach oben und sehen wie das Nordlicht sich langsam verändert, unglaublich aufregend und faszinierend. Wir freuen uns wie Honigkuchenpferde. Als die letzten Laternen gerade hinter uns verschwunden sind, nur noch der Mond wirft sein Licht, passiert etwas&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt; Unglaubliches. Plötzlich setzt sich der ganze Himmel in Bewegung, überall Lichter in den verschiedensten Farben. Im &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Nachhinein meint Vanessa es hätte ausgesehen als flögen Feen durch die Luft und hinterließen einen Schweif aus Licht. Ich denke das trifft es ganz gut. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Abisko_Nordlicht%20013.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/Abisko_Nordlicht%20013.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Wir können uns nicht mehr auf den Beinen halten, müssen uns auf den Boden legen und haben Tränen der Rührung in den Augen. Gefühle die ich noch nie hatte mischen sich. Faszination und Ergriffenheit &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;einerseits, aber auch ein mulmiges Gefühl, da ich nicht begreifen kann, was gerade passiert. Das Schauspiel geht etwa eine halbe Stunde, teilweise ist der ganze Himmel bemalt, Lichter flackern überall. Wir kommen aus dem Staunen nicht mehr heraus. So etwa&lt;/span&gt;s hätten wir nie erwartet. Es gibt keine Worte um das zu beschreiben, außer vielleicht diese:&lt;br /&gt;"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Das Polarlicht ist eine Leuchterscheinung in den äusseren Schichten der Erdatmosphäre, die in Höhen von 100 bis 300 Kilometer auftritt. Ein Polarlicht ensteht, wenn geladene, von der Sonne kommende Telichen auf die Atmosphäre treffen. Da die Teilchen, Elektronen und Protonen, geladen sind, werden sie vom &lt;a href="javascript:popup('http://lexikon.astronomie.info/keywords/Magnetfeld.html');" class="help"&gt;Magnetfeld&lt;/a&gt; der Erde erfasst und zu den Magnetpolen gelenkt. Deshalb treten die Polarlichter bevorzugt in hohen nördlichen oder sehr südlichen geographischen Breiten auf. Bei starker Sonnenaktivität kann für ein paar Stunden sogar in Mitteleuropa ein &lt;a href="javascript:popup('http://lexikon.astronomie.info/keywords/Polarlicht.html');" class="help"&gt;Polarlicht&lt;/a&gt; auftreten."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ich weiß, diese Definition mag sich für euch vielleicht logisch vorkommen, aber ich habe eine andere Erklärung:&lt;br /&gt;"Da President Bush die Täuschung der Menschheit, nämlich die Verleugnung der Existenz des Weihnachtsmannes, nicht mehr aufrecht erhalten kann, versucht er dessen Quartier zu bombardieren. Die Lichter am Himmel entstehen aufgrund Raketenabwehrsysteme des Weihnachtsmanns, der mit Geschenken versucht, die Raketen zu zerstören. Aus diesem Grund bekommen auch nicht alle Kinder die Geschenke, die sie auf ihren Wunschzettel geschrieben haben. Wenn ihr also mal wieder etwas auf dem Gabentisch vermisst, wisst ihr nun bei wem ihr euch bedanken dürft..."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nachdem die letzten Lichter verschwunden sind bemerken wir erst wieder die Kälte, da wir die ganze Zeit im Schnee gelegen hatten. Als wir&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;wieder in die Jugendherberge zurückkehren, kommen die Anderen gerade aus der Sauna und haben nichts von dem Spektakel&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;mitbekommen. „You missed something“ sagt der Franzose. Dann gab es plötzlich einen lauten Knall...Kabummmmmmm!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Das war der erste Teil unserer Expedition. Morgen geht es weiter. Zusammenfassend haben wir in unserem ersten Abschnitt der Reise also folgendes herausgefunden:&lt;br /&gt;Der President der Vereinigten Staaten hat mal wieder seine Hand im Spiel. In einem ständigen Kampf mit dem Weihnachtsmann, dessen Existenz zwar noch nicht bewiesen, aber immer wahrscheinlicher ist, versucht Bush alle Menschen unglücklich zu machen und die Weltherrschaft ein für alle Mal an sich zu reißen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16723903-113552521579444065?l=mcfabulous.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/feeds/113552521579444065/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16723903&amp;postID=113552521579444065&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/113552521579444065'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/113552521579444065'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/2005/12/die-grte-sensation-der-ganzen-welt-ich.html' title=''/><author><name>Mr. Fabulous</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01394866517785174593</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16723903.post-113451826998935476</id><published>2005-12-13T23:46:00.000Z</published><updated>2005-12-17T08:10:17.596Z</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Interview mit Fräulein Vanessa Wartusch,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;heute ist es soweit. Das bereits angekündigte und lang ersehnte Interview mit Fräulein Vanessa Wartusch (im weiteren Verlauf als FVW abgekürzt) hat stattgefunden. Ihr, meine lieben Leserinnen und Leser, erhaltet heute einen Exklusiv Ausschnitt. Die Rechtschreibfehler aus euren Fragen habe ich entfernt.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Freitag, 11. Dezember in einer Bar unten am Pier treffe ich mich mit FVW. Sie lässt mich eine halbe Stunde warten, ihre Fans kennen das von ihr. Als sie erscheint wird es ruhig im Salong. Sie ist leger gekleidet, trägt ein rotes Kostüm mit einem Nerzschal um die Schulter gewickelt. Außerdem hat sie einen oberginenfarbenen Hut auf dem Kopf. Keine Begrüßung, "Kommen sie bitte gleich zur Sache, Herr Dingsbums" sagt sie. Sie habe im Anschluss noch einen Yogakurs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Frage (von Karsten): &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Microsoft Sans Serif;font-size:100%;"  &gt;&lt;span style="font-family:'Microsoft Sans Serif';"&gt;Wie gehe ich sicher  auch eine (blonde) schwedische Lehrerin zu  bekommen?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Microsoft Sans Serif;font-size:100%;"  &gt;&lt;span style="font-family:'Microsoft Sans Serif';"&gt;"Einfach in eine beliebige Schule in Schweden gehen, sich als Schüler beim Rektor anmelden und auf dem Anmeldebogen „Blonde Lehrerin 90-60-90“ ankreuzen (anstatt "Alte Pflaume 60-90-60")..."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Frage ( von Simon): &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Microsoft Sans Serif;font-size:100%;"  &gt;&lt;span style="font-family:'Microsoft Sans Serif';"&gt;Was heißt Heimat-  und Sachkunde auf Schwedisch?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Microsoft Sans Serif;font-size:100%;"  &gt;&lt;span style="font-family:'Microsoft Sans Serif';"&gt;"Dieses Unterrichtsfach gibt es in schwedischen Grundschulen nicht. Aber eine adäquate Übersetzung wäre: „Hemland och sachkunnig undervisning“&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Frage (von Karsten): &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Microsoft Sans Serif;font-size:100%;"  &gt;&lt;span style="font-family:'Microsoft Sans Serif';"&gt;Wie halten sie es  primär mit dem sekundären Fabian Heymer als künftigem Lehrergatten aus (und das  6 Jahre?)?&lt;br /&gt;"Primär halte ich das für keine sekundäre Lösung!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Frage (von McFabulous): &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"  &gt;Wenn Sie der Minister für Erziehung, Ernährung und alles was Spaß macht in Deutschland wären, welche zwei Besonderheiten aus Schweden würden Sie zuerst einführen?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Symbol;font-size:100%;"  &gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Symbol;"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;·&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal;font-family:'Times New Roman';" &gt;          &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;- Oj (wie der Schwede sagen würde), das ist schwer. Nur zwei Dinge? Ich denke ich würde die Art der Notengebung übernemen: In Schweden bekommen die Schüler erst ab dem achten Schuljahr Noten. Dies erleichtert die Beziehung zwischen den Schüleren und Lehrern. Lehrende können als Mentor agieren und werden nicht sofort als die „Noten-gebende-Person“ gesehen. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;p class="MsoListBullet"&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Symbol;font-size:100%;"  &gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Symbol;"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;·&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal;font-family:'Times New Roman';" &gt;          &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Zudem finde ich das sogenannte „elevens val“ Fach eine gute Idee. Den Schülern werden 90 min in der Woche überlassen ihr Lieblingsfach zusätzlich zum festgelegten Stundenplan zu besuchen.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Symbol;font-size:100%;"  &gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Symbol;"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;·&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal;font-family:'Times New Roman';" &gt;          &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"  &gt;Wenn ich noch etwas von Schweden in deutschen Schulen übernehmen könnte, wäre es das Essen der Schüler in der Schule. So geht man sicher, dass die Kinder auch etwas richtiges und gesundes zwischen ihre Beißerchen bekommen. In den schwedischen Schulen wird außerdem zum Mittagessen Milch ausgeschenkt. Diese ist mit Vitaminen angereichert, damit das Volk von Grund auf gesund ernährt wird."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"  &gt;Frage (McFabulous): Was  würde ein schwedischer Lehrer machen, wenn ein türkischer Schüler vor ihm auf  den Boden rotzt?&lt;br /&gt;Daneben rotzen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"  &gt;Frage (von McFabulous): Was halten Sie vom Weltfrieden, häh?&lt;br /&gt;Finde ich gut!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"  &gt;Vielen Dank für das Gespräch!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"  &gt;&lt;br /&gt;Meine lieben Leser, das war es schon wieder für heute. Sonst gibt es nichts wichtiges mehr zu erzählen, außer vielleicht folgendes:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;ul&gt;   &lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"  &gt;mein 1.

Ich hatte die letzten Tage nicht so sehr viel Zeit, da ich gerade dabei bin den International Seminarievägen Music Contest zu organisieren. &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/CD-Front.1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/CD-Front.1.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Und hier sind die Regeln:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Each nationality is allowed to nominate 3 songs,&lt;br /&gt;2. The songs have to be from different artists and different genres,&lt;br /&gt;3. The songs have to be in the national language,&lt;br /&gt;4. The Mexicans are not allowed to cheat,&lt;br /&gt;5. The French have to come up with at least one heterosexual artist.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anschließend gibt es ein Voting mit anschließender Preisverleihung etc. Warum ich euch das erzähle? Weil ich eure Hilfe benötige. Rechts findet ihr die neue Umfrage, mit welchen 3 Songs Deutschland starten soll. Ihr habt 3 Stimmen. Ich werde euch dann natürlich aufklären auf welchen Plätzen wir gelandet sind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nun aber zu meinem heutigen Thema. Ich hatte es bereits angekündigt, heute geht es um die negativen Seiten von Schweden. Folgendes ist scheiße hier:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Ungleiches Geschlechterverhältnis&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/x1pqP5noGPWAA7qeYuzjpfmaeZ8dDuooL8DvmcDx1buh_k_ZagpmV44GLZ88wbetYn3jcz19PeolcMItvGH1LPI-bYg-06dypTWqq2Nwd7YULmzHOGTCO6VPfMp1I9EPkIekomEM5uX.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/x1pqP5noGPWAA7qeYuzjpfmaeZ8dDuooL8DvmcDx1buh_k_ZagpmV44GLZ88wbetYn3jcz19PeolcMItvGH1LPI-bYg-06dypTWqq2Nwd7YULmzHOGTCO6VPfMp1I9EPkIekomEM5uX.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Stellt euch folgende Situation vor: Ihr wollt euch gerne eine neue Armbanduhr (z.B. eine welche die Zeit direkt in euer Auge projeziert ohne das ihr draufschauen müsst oder eine die jede Minute die Zeit per Lautsprecher ansagt) kaufen. Ihr zieht euch Schuhe und Jacke an, wickelt den Schal um den Hals und lauft los in die Stadt. Auf dem Weg dorthin begegnen euch fast nur Frauen. Ihr denkt euch nichts dabei und geht in den ersten Armbanduhrladen hinein. Hinter dem Tresen? Eine Frau. Die Uhr die ihr wolltet gibt's natürlich nicht. Frustriert lauft ihr weiter und wollt einen Dönerkebab essen. Der Türke mit dem Schnurrbart hinter dem Tresen? Eine Frau. Auf dem Rückweg bellt euch ein kleiner Hund an. "Rüde?" fragt ihr die Besitzerin. "Nein. Weibchen."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Soetwas gibt es nur im Film werdet ihr jetzt sagen. Das dachte ich auch bevor ich nach Schweden kam. Männer sind hier gnadenlos unterrepräsentiert. Ungeheuerlich.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Sehr teurer Alkohol&lt;/div&gt; &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/IMGP1200.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/IMGP1200.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Die Schweden trinken gerne und viel Alkohol. Darum haben sich ein paar kluge Köpfe vom Staat gedacht, dass man damit sicherlich viel Kohle machen kann und ein Alkoholmonopol gebildet. Bis vor etwa 50 Jahren durfte nur eine bestimmte Menge Alkohol pro Person gekauft werden. Die Menge richtete sich nach dem Einkommen, d.h. umso mehr Einkommen desto mehr Alkohol. Frauen durften ebenfalls kleinere Mengen kaufen, sobald sie aber verheiratet waren nicht mehr (das finde ich wahnsinnig witzig. ihr auch?). Diese Regeln gibt es nicht mehr, aber der Alkohol ist immer noch sehr teuer (eine Flasche Vodka etwa 500 Euro, Tequila ab 600 Euro).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wie das immer so ist, hat sich ein neuer Markt entwickelt:&lt;br /&gt;- Mehrmals die Woche fahren Busse nach Dänemark bzw. Deutschland um dort am ersten Supermarkt kräftig einzukaufen. Reiche Schweden reservieren sich 2 Plätze im Bus um mehr Gewicht freizuhaben. Noch reichere Schweden fahren zusätzlich mit dem Auto nebenher.&lt;br /&gt;- Das gleiche gibt es mit Fähren nach Estland&lt;br /&gt;- In Supermärkten kann man Whiskey- und andere Essenzen kaufen, die man sich dann in sein selbstgebranntes Zeug kippen kann, damit es eben nach Whiskey und sonstigem schmeckt.&lt;br /&gt;Echt verrückt.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Group works ohne Ende&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/IM000715.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/IM000715.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt; &lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;Die Schweden sind normalerweise gerne auch mal für sich allein und genießen die Ruhe. Sobald es aber um Arbeiten geht, geht nichts über Groupwork. Groupwork hier, groupwork da, groupwork tralala. Ist sicher manchmal ganz nett und ich habe super nette Leute auf diese Weise kennengelernt (z.B: auf dem Bild oben meine natürlich weibliche Studygroup von Marketing: v.l.n.r. Tina Nguyen, Cecilia Axelsson und Kristina Eriksson.) aber irgenwann reicht es auch.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wetter und so&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/IM000202.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/IM000202.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Mittlerweile wird es kalt hier und die Seen frieren zu. Das Wetter betreffend kann ich aber leider nicht soviel negatives sagen, da wir in diesem Semester anscheinend wirklich Glück damit hatten. Wenn ich aus dem Fenster schaue sehe ich nur dunkel. Das ändert sich nicht mal dann, wenn ich die Rolläden hochziehe. Hier wird es mittlerweile um ca. 15.30 Uhr dunkel. Aber kein Grund zur Panik. Ich habe ja Vanessa, falls ich Angst bekomme.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tja Leute. Das war es auch schon wieder. Falls mir weitere negative Sachen in Schweden auffallen schicke ich euch sofort eine SMS. Jetzt aber gibt es die Auflösung von der letzten Umfrage. Ich wollte wissen, welcher der Sprüche aus meiner Feder stammte. Hier nun das Ergebnis des Votings. &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Image1.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/Image1.0.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Ihr kennt mich mittlerweile zu gut. Natürlich habt ihr Recht gehabt. Der dümmste Spruch stammt von mir. Ich wünschte der erste wäre es gewesen, aber das sind eben die Kleinigkeiten die mich z.B. von Friedrich Nitzsche oder J.W. v. Goethe unterscheiden.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Denkt bitte an die neue Umfrage!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bis zum nächsten Mal.&lt;br /&gt;F.H.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16723903-113345415813671735?l=mcfabulous.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/feeds/113345415813671735/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16723903&amp;postID=113345415813671735&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/113345415813671735'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/113345415813671735'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/2005/12/auch-im-himmel-gibts-toiletten-hier.html' title=''/><author><name>Mr. Fabulous</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01394866517785174593</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16723903.post-113244839324196505</id><published>2005-11-19T21:27:00.000Z</published><updated>2005-11-20T19:54:42.913Z</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Ich kann nicht Meer,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;hier passiert soviel in so kurzer Zeit. Selbst wenn ich jeden Tag einen neuen Eintrag veröffentlichen würde, bräuchte ich wahrscheinlich über 30 Jahre (Ü-30) um euch alles mitzuteilen. Ich bin mit meinen Kräften am Ende. Ein physikalisches Wrack.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Trotzdem gibt es heute die Auflösung des Wettbewerb von letztem Mal. Ich habe die Kommentare zu den Bildern in den vorherigen Post integriert, d.h. ihr findet die Sprüche direkt unter den Bildern.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Heute geht es aber, wie ursprünglich schon für das letzt Mal geplant, mit meiner WG weiter. Um ein paar Bilder von den restlichen Bewohnern zu schießen, habe ich eine weitere Party in unserem Korridor genutzt. Die Bilder sind in Schwarz-Weiß. Ich denke das ist cooler und bringt mehr Ästhetik auf meine Seite. Auf dem ersten Foto seht ihr Inken aus Heilbronn und Daniel, einen unserer drei Schweden. Inken schimpft immer mit Agustin, da er öfters die Küche unsauber hinterlässt. Sie ist soetwas wie unsere Mutter. Daniel hingegen ist ein sehr ruhiger Zeitgenosse. Er wird Lehrer und wartet im Moment auf eine Anstellung.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Agustins%20Geburtstag%20006.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/Agustins%20Geburtstag%20006.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Auf dem nächsten Bild lernt ihr Agustin kennen. Er ist aus Mexiko und hatte Geburtstag (das Shirt haben Vanessa und ich ihm geschenkt). Wie sein Freund Julio trinkt auch er zum Frühstück Bier und ich glaube wirklich, es gab keinen Tag an dem er vor 3Uhr morgens ins Bett gegangen ist. Neben ungefähr 100 Bierdosen und anderen alkoholhaltigen Getränken in seinem Zimmer steht ein kitschiges Bild mit der Jungfrau Maria auf seinem Nachttisch. Ich glaube sie spendet ihm Trost, wenn sein Bier alle ist. Auf jeden Fall ist er auch ein super Kumpel und wir werden ihn sicher in Mexiko besuchen, sobald eure Spenden bei uns eingegangen sind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Agustins%20Geburtstag%20008.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/Agustins%20Geburtstag%20008.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt; Weiter gehts mit Simon, links auf dem Bild.

Sie studiert in Seoul in einer Frauen Uni und ist wirklich süß.

In einigen Briefen, die ich die letzten Tage bekommen habe (natürlich kann ich nicht alle lesen) wurde mir mitgeteil, dass mein Tempo doch etwas zu hoch sei. Um euch eine kurze Verschnaufspause zu ermöglichen, werde ich heute einmal von meinem ursprünglichen Plan absehen. Stattdessen dürft ihr euch heute einfach ein paar mehr oder weniger aussagekräftige Bilder anschauen, die ein buntes Potpuri dessen darstellen, was Vanessa und ich hier in Schweden bisher erlebt haben.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ich habe bewusst keine Kommentare zu den Bildern geschrieben. Das ist nämlich eure Aufgabe. Die besten Sprüche zu den Bildern werde ich, mit euren Namen, das nächste Mal veröffentlichen. Eine tolle Gelegenheit für euch, interaktiv an meinem Blog teilzunehmen und ein wenig um meine Gunst zu werben (auch wenn ich natürlich nicht versprechen kann, dass ich euch anschließend mehr mag). Die Sprüche schickt ihr einfach mit der Nummer des Bildes an meine e-mail Adresse: fabianheymer@gmx.de&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Das was wir heute behandeln ist also nicht prüfungsrelevant.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Unten gibt's übrigens die Auflösung meiner letzten Umfrage.

Aber wir haben den statistischen Beweis. Ein unabhängiges Institut hat das herausbekommen (fragt mich nicht wie, aber es stimmt wirklich!). Zuerst aber noch etwas in eigener Sache. Jetzt ist es offiziell: Ich bleibe noch ein weiteres Semester hier in Schweden. Nur so nebenbei...ein Flug nach Göteborg kostet inkl. aller Gebühren ca. 30Euro. Ihr seid natürlich alle eingeladen.&lt;br /&gt;Heute ist es aber an der Zeit euch meine Kumpels hier vorzustellen.

Wir wohnen in einem sog. Korridor, d.h. jeder hat sein eigenes Zimmer und Bad, wir teilen uns aber Wohnzimmer und Küche. Insgesamt sind wir 13 Studenten, darunter 3 Schweden (Sinni, Daniel, Simon), 3 Mexikaner (Julio, Agustin, Benjamin), 4 Deutsche (Anna, Theresa, Inken, Ich), eine Koreanerin (Gowoon), ein Hawaiianer (Adam) und ein Franzose (Matthieu).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;Auf dem folgenden Bild seht ihr Adam, Matthieu, Benjamin, Julio und mich (v. links nach rechts):&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Fabis%20WG%20%283%29_v.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; cursor: pointer; text-align: center;" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/Fabis%20WG%20%283%29_v.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Was gibt es zu diesen sympathisch wirkenden Burschen zu sagen? &lt;strong&gt;Adam&lt;/strong&gt; hat fast immer Liebeskummer, schreibt täglich ein englisches Idiom auf einen Zettel im Wohnzimmer und wird von uns auch Kurt Cobain genannt. &lt;strong&gt;Matthieu&lt;/strong&gt; ist in Worms der schlechteste, macht heimlich Paparazi Fotos von Luz und bringt selbst mich immer zum lachen. &lt;strong&gt;Benjamin&lt;/strong&gt; wäre (nach eigenen Angaben) fast ein Profifußballer geworden. Abends brüllt er andauernd ganz laut "Aribaaaa" um zu zeigen, dass er Spaß hat. &lt;strong&gt;Julio&lt;/strong&gt; ist ein super Kumpel. Er trainiert in Mexiko ein Rugby-Team und trinkt immer Bier, selbst im Müsli und beim Zähneputzen glaub ich. Eine schlechte Idee wäre es wahrscheinlich an einem Abend zu versuchen mit ihm mitzuhalten. Ich denke wirklich, das wäre eine sehr schlechte Idee. Der Typ am meisten rechts (&lt;strong&gt;Fabian&lt;/strong&gt;) ist immer gut gelaunt, total charmant aber riecht etwas unangenehm. Er redet von sich nur in der dritten Person und seine "Freunde" müssen ihn Mr. Fabulous nennen. Ts, ts, ts.&lt;br /&gt;Auf dem nächsten Bild lernt ihr einen unserer Schweden besser kennen. Das ist &lt;strong&gt;Sinni&lt;/strong&gt;. Den blöd grinsenden Typ rechts kennt ihr ja schon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/Fabis%20WG%20%2817%29.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; cursor: pointer; text-align: center;" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/Fabis%20WG%20%2817%29.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Sinni wird auch Lehrer, genauso wie Vanessa. Wenn er redet, und das macht er ziemlich oft und auch meistens sehr lange, fährt er sich immer mit der Hand durch die Haare und wenn man ins Wohnzimmer kommt und er sitzt nicht vor dem Fernseher, dann ist das schon ein komisches Gefühl.

Die Uni hat so ziemlich die größten Wachstumsraten an neuen Studenten in Schweden und die größte Anzahl an Austauschstudenten (ca. 350). &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/campusill2003.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/campusill2003.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Von den ca. 15.000 Studenten leben 3.500 auf dem Campus. Der Campus ist von einem See umgeben und enthält sogar ein Schloss (einige sagen dort lebt ein Geist, aber ich glaube der ist in eine Wohnung im Neubaugebiet gezogen). Außerdem gibt es 2 Studentenpubs, Fitness-center, Sportplätze und vieles mehr. Vanessa wohnt in einem Einzelappartment auf dem Campus. Natürlich haben alle Wohnungen&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/IM000223.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/IM000223.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Internetverbindung, die (fast) immer tadellos funktioniert (und man sich so schnell daran gewöhnt, dass man ansonsten schnell einen Ausraster bekommen kann: siehe Bild).&lt;br /&gt;Das Schweden eines der innovativesten Länder ist, spiegelt sich in vielen Situationen wieder. Um direkte Sonneneinstrahlung in die Unterrichtsräume zu verhindern werden keine traditionellen Rolos an den Fenstern verwendet, stattdessen dreht sich das gesamte Gebäude, das sich auf einer rotationsfähigen Plattform befindet. &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/IM000292.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/IM000292.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Außerdem ist die Uni luftdicht verschlossen, um das eindringen von Keimen zu verhindern. Die notwendige Dosis CO2 wird täglich in einem aufwendigen rechnerischen Verfahren ermittelt und im Gebäude an verschiedenen Schnittstellen freigesetzt. Jeder Student hat 24 Stunden am Tag Zutritt zur den Gebäuden. Wer etwas anderes sagt lügt! Die Inneneinrichtung der Uni entspricht dem skandinavischen Stil- viel helles Holz und Möbel von Ikea. &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/IM000270.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/IM000270.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sicher wollt ihr noch wissen, wie es sich hier so studiert. Die Schweden haben ein anderes System als in den meisten anderen Ländern. Hier studiert man die Module nacheinander, d.h. das nächste Modul startet erst dann, wenn man das vorherige abgeschlossen hat. Vorteil ist, dass man sich mehr in eine Sache vertiefen kann. Dies geschieht hier mit Guppenarbeiten, Seminaren und natürlich Klausuren. Nachteil ist, dass man eigentlich ständig etwas zu tun hat. Die Vorlesungen nehmen kaum Zeit in Anspruch, dafür wird aber Selbststudium verlangt. &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/IM000247.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/IM000247.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Die letzten 2 Wochen habe ich also damit verbracht ein Marketing Buch mit 900 Seiten zu lesen. Heute durfte ich die 4 stündige Klausur schreiben, die folgende Woche müssen in Gruppenarbeit 2 Case studies (Pepsi und Absolut Vodka) durchgeführt werden, nebenbei in Gruppenarbeit Interviews in schwedischen Unternehmen führen und einen Marketingplan übernächste Woche abgeben. Das natürlich alles auf Englisch...Trotz dem Aufwand halte ich sehr viel von diesem System.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ihr dürft jetzt noch ein wenig evaluieren.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bis zum nächsten Mal,&lt;br /&gt;Fabian Heymersson&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16723903-112940001806837452?l=mcfabulous.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/feeds/112940001806837452/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16723903&amp;postID=112940001806837452&amp;isPopup=true' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/112940001806837452'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/112940001806837452'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/2005/10/vxj-universitet-uni-der-zuknftigen.html' title=''/><author><name>Mr. Fabulous</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01394866517785174593</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16723903.post-112898188960456307</id><published>2005-10-11T06:42:00.000Z</published><updated>2005-10-12T22:25:45.393Z</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Eine Stadt mit Herz,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;nach insgesamt ca. 3000 km haben wir unser Ziel erreicht. Es heißt Växjö (und man spricht es Wäkchjö aus). Wie gehts also weiter liebe Kameraden?&lt;br /&gt;In diesem Post möchte ich euch die Stadt etwas näher vorstellen. Das nächste Mal erfahrt ihr mehr über die Uni, an der ich hier studiere. Dann werde ich euch meine WG präsentieren.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Växjö hat ungefähr 69.000 Einwohner (zumindest habe ich das vorige Woche gezählt), liegt im Süden Schwedens und ist von unzähligen Seen umgeben. Sie liegt in der Region Smaland, die bekannt ist für Pipi Langstrumpf und Glasbläsereien.

Falls ihr das nicht mehr wisst, könnt ihr ja noch mal einen Blick auf eure Notizen werfen. Ich studiere hier also mittlerweile schon einen Monat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Es gibt natürlich sehr viel zu erzählen, aber ich werde mich jetzt etwas kürzer halten müssen, um die Zeit aufzuholen. Ich hoffe ihr nehmt mir das als Freunde nicht übel... (z.b. indem ihr euch insgeheim sagt: "So ein lahmer Depp"). Im nächsten Post geht es dann also um mein Studium hier in Växjö und ich kann nur wieder sagen: "Es bleibt spannend und hochkarätige Besetzung ist garantiert".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jetzt aber zunächst zu Göteborg, unserer letzten Station auf unserer (insgesamt 2Wochen langen Skandinavienrundreise). &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/IM000181.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/IM000181.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Die Stadt bekam ihren Namen, als Johann Wolfgang von Göthe 1983 die Stadt besuchte und sich in der Bibliothek ein Buch aus"borgte".

Falls ihr also mal in der Nähe seid, unbedingt anschauen.&lt;br /&gt;Wie fast alle schwe- dischen Städte ist sie relativ grün, d.h.mit einigen Parks. Da Vanessa und ich stets unsere Fahrräder dabei haben, können wir in den Städten in kürzester Zeit alles sehen und nutzen gleichzeitig unsere Schuhe nicht so ab.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/IM000192.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/IM000192.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In Göteborg gibt es (wie übrigens im Zentrum von Kopenhagen auch) einen Ver- gnügungs-  park, den wir aber nicht besucht haben. In Göteborg haben wir drei Tage verbracht und ich glaube, das ist genau richtig gewesen. Falls ihr nicht der gleichen Meinung seid, sagt einfach Bescheid.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Falls ihr übrigens einmal Fragen habt, bin ich natürlich gerne bereit sie zu beantworten. Jeweils den 1. Dienstag im Monat gebe ich im Auditorium unserer Universität eine Fragestunde, in der ihr mich alles fragen könnt was ihr auf dem Herzen habt.

Ich denke jetzt begleitet ihr uns auch mit eurem Herzen (soviel wie wir schon miteinander erlebt haben). Heute dürft ihr uns nach Norwegen begleiten. Norwegen ist sicher ein Begriff, den einige von euch schon einmal gehört haben. Auf ca. 324.000 km² leben nur ca. 4,5 Mio. Menschen. Wenn das Land nur 1km² groß wäre, würden also 4,5 Mio. Menschen auf einem Quadratkilometer wohnen, also so ziemlich die höchste Einwohnerdichte in Europa (abgesehen von ein paar Flecken in Osteuropa). Komische Vorstellung.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Eine andere komische Vorstellung ist, dass man auf der Autobahn nur maximal 80km/h fahren darf. Dadurch bietet sich mir allerdings die Möglichkeit, ab und zu neben dem Auto herzujoggen.&lt;br /&gt;Unser erster Stopp in Norwegen ist Oslo (darüber scheint sich Vanessa auf dem Bild sehr zu freuen).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/IM000110.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/IM000110.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/IM0001301.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/IM0001301.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Oslo ist wirklich eine sehr schöne Stadt, aber sehr teuer. Ein Brot zum Beispiel kostet etwa 20 Euro, ein Liter Milch so um die 17 Euro und eine Pizza Margarita 45 Euro (ich bin mir nicht mehr ganz sicher über den Wechselkurs, aber das müsste so stimmen). Die Norweger haben&lt;br /&gt;nämlich eine andere Währung als wir und zwar Kronen. Nicht wie ihr jetzt denkt:"Ach so, Kronen heißt die Währung und man bezahlt mit Münzen und Scheinen". Nein. In Norwegen &lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/IM000122.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/IM000122.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt; bezahlt man mit echten Kronen (wie ihr sie von BurgerKing kennt, also zum auf den Kopf auf-&lt;br /&gt;setzen). Deswegen ist es eben auch so teuer hier. Aber was solls. Die Hauptsache ist, dass man arme Länder in ihren Bemühungen unterstützt, ihr enormes Haushaltsdefizit in den Griff zu bekommen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/IM000129.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/IM000129.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;In Oslo verbringen wir insgesamt 3 Tage, darunter auch den 16.08. Ihr habt gehört!!! DER sechzehnte achte. Ein ganz besonderer Tag, bei dem ihr in eurem Notizkalender eigentlich eine Anmerkung finden müsstet...&lt;br /&gt;Auf jeden Fall wird mir der Tag im Gedächtnis bleiben. Wenn ihr schon mal hier seid, müsst ihr euch unbedingt das Bild mit dem Monolith näher anschauen (einfach anklicken, dann wird es groß).

Sehr viele Seen liegen auf dem Weg, an denen man schön campen kann, oder ein Buch lesen, oder Steine ins Wasser werfen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Da ich mich leider nicht mehr an alle Namen der Seen erinnern kann, ist jetzt eurer Ideenreichtum gefragt. Ihr dürft euch imaginäre Namen ausdenken. Falls euch mehr als 5 Namen in 10 Minuten einfallen, ist das schon sehr toll (Namen wie See 1, See 2 gelten natürlich nicht).&lt;br /&gt;Ihr seht, wie man mit solch einfachen Mitteln schon eine Menge Spaß haben kann.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/IM000147.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/IM000147.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/IM000153.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/IM000153.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/IM0001671.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/IM0001671.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nach etwa 5 Tagen geht es für uns auf die Fähre zurück nach Schweden, um dort noch ein paar Tage in Göteborg verbringen zu können.

Anders kann ich mir nicht erklären, warum ihr keine Bilder von McFabulous wollt. Aber da ich ein ehrlicher Knopf bin, füge ich mich eurer Wahl und am Ende dieses Posts findet ihr ein Bild mit schwedischen Mädels (auch wenn ich mir nicht 100%ig sicher bin, ob sich da nicht ein paar Burschen drunter gemischt haben...).&lt;br /&gt;Rechts oben gibt es dann bereits die nächsten Umfrage. Mit meinem Gästebuch hatte ich leider kleinere Probleme, weswegen die Einträge gelöscht wurden. Jetzt aber funktioniert es richtig.&lt;br /&gt;Viel Spaß und viele Grüße nach Deutschland, Taiwan, Sydney, England, Südafrika und Schottland.&lt;br /&gt;(Hoffe ich habe nichts vergessen)&lt;br /&gt;Fabian&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/WCUPSwedenTeamImage1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/WCUPSwedenTeamImage1.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16723903-112724806241715674?l=mcfabulous.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/feeds/112724806241715674/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16723903&amp;postID=112724806241715674&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/112724806241715674'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/112724806241715674'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/2005/09/oslo-find-ich-gut-ihr-erinnert-euch.html' title=''/><author><name>Mr. Fabulous</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01394866517785174593</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16723903.post-112671683511237572</id><published>2005-09-14T16:40:00.000Z</published><updated>2005-09-20T13:38:51.240Z</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Knäckebrot und ein Elch,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;endlich in Schweden! Es ist unglaublich, aber sobald man die&lt;br /&gt;Grenze überfährt ist man in einer völlig neuen Welt:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;- nur noch blonde Mädels (ansonsten keine Zivilisation)&lt;br /&gt;- statt Tiger und Leoparden nur noch Elche&lt;br /&gt;aber das beste&lt;br /&gt;- statt wie in Deutschland nur lächerliche 16% hier in&lt;br /&gt;Schweden sage und schreibe 25% Mehrwertsteuer!!!&lt;br /&gt;Na das ist ja mal was, oder Leute?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Erstes Ziel ist Växjö, unser zukünftiger Studienort um ein&lt;br /&gt;paar Tonnen unseres Gepäckes zu deponieren. Über Växjö&lt;br /&gt;werde ich natürlich später noch zu sprechen kommen. Die Zeit&lt;br /&gt;ist noch nicht reif. Zunächst machen wir noch eine Rundreise&lt;br /&gt;durch den Norden (Vanessa und ich real, ihr in eurem Kopf).&lt;br /&gt;Also entspannt euch und hört mir zu...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/IM0000797.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/IM0000797.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Schweden liegt am Meer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ist ja klaro, dass wir uns die Küste mal anschauen, also ab nach Westen bis man keinen festen Boden mehr unter den Füßen hat. Dort gibt es sehr schöne Orte. Auf den Bildern links von euch seht ihr Smögen, den würdet ihr (s)mögen. Er ist zwar schon ca. 2000 Einwohner (oder sogar mehr) groß, aber junggeblieben.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/IM0000922.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/IM0000922.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Smögen ist unter Touristen sehr bekannt und viele Schweden verbringen ihre Sommerurlaube hier wo sie Angeln, ein Buch lesen, miteinander reden, durch das Zentrum schlendern oder mit ihrem Boot bei vollaufgedrehter Musik am Pier entlangheizen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/IM0000859.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/IM0000859.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Was also macht man an einem Ort wie Smögen,&lt;br /&gt;werdet ihr euch fragen? Darauf gibt es sicher mehr als eine Antwort. Wir haben uns aber die beste ausgesucht: &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Schokoladenfondue&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;Fragen wir mal Fred was er dazu meint: "Statt des sonst üblichen Brenners erhitzen Sie den Fondue-Topf, in dem Sie die Schokolade zum Schmelzen bringen, mit einem Teelicht. Dazu geben Sie die bereits erhitzte Schlagsahne und je nach Geschmack einen Schuss Cognac od. Kirschwasser, es schmeckt aber auch ohne Alkohol. Die mundgerechten Brot-, Biscuit, -Bananen- und/oder Ananasstückchen werden jeweils auf einen Schaschlikspieß gesteckt und können so von Ihren Gästen in die Schokoladenmasse getaucht werden."&lt;br /&gt;Wenn ihr jetzt Hunger bekommen habt, dürft ihr gerne eine kurze Pause von circa 5 Minuten machen, in der ihr etwas essen könnt( z.B. eine Brezel oder ein Leberwurstbrot).&lt;br /&gt;Ich mache hier schon einmal weiter mit den nächsten Bildern. Das erste zeigt, wie ich ins Meer springe um mich zu erfrischen. Das zweite ist ein weitere toller Ort an der Küste...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/IM000097_n3.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/IM000097_n3.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/IM000103.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/IM000103.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wenn ihr bisher aufmerksam gelesen habt werdet ihr euch sicher fragen,&lt;br /&gt;wie wir die Nächte verbringen. Genaue Infos dazu kann ich leider&lt;br /&gt;nicht geben, aber zumindest die Rahmenbedingungen werde ich euch&lt;br /&gt;schildern. Wir haben stets 2 Möglichkeiten, im Auto oder im Zelt,&lt;br /&gt;je nachdem was praktischer ist. Unser Zelt &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/IM000109.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/IM000109.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;ist eine Spezialkonstruktion,&lt;br /&gt;wie ihr auf dem Bild rechts von euch sehen könnt. Es "schwebt" über dem Boden (zumindest hat man den Eindruck, in Wirklichkeit steht es aber auf zwei Grashalmen). In Schweden gibt es ein Gesetz, dass man überall campen darf wo man möchte und jedes Gebiet betreten darf. Das kommt uns natürlich gelegen. An dem Ort, wo dieses Bild geschossen wurde haben wir übrigens nachts auch einen Elch gehört (Vanessa sagt zwar immer noch, das wäre ich gewesen, aber ich glaube eher sie hatte Angst).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/1600/IM0000725.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4418/1595/320/IM0000725.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Oft schlafen wir aber auch einfach im Auto. Da wir einen Kombi haben ist auch das kein Problem. Vor allem in Städten ist es natürlich schwierig einen Platz für ein Zelt zu finden.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ich habe das Gefühl ihr seid nun nicht mehr aufnahmefähig. Morgen bzw. übermorgen werde ich bereits den nächsten Eintrag (wir computerfreaks nennen das "post") veröffentlichen. Dann gibt es auch die Ergebnisse der Umfrage (ich kann nur sagen "es ist spannend"). Außerdem habe ich meinen Hitcounter verändert und auf null zurückgesetzt (ab jetzt wird nicht mehr gezählt, wenn ich selbst zum 100sten Mal auf diese Seite gehe), d.h. ab jetzt gilt 100 Besuche die Woche, sonst ist hier Schluss!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wie ihr vielleicht bemerkt habt, gibt es nun auch ein Gästebuch&lt;br /&gt;auf dieser Seite. Ich habe 1 Stunde gebraucht, um die Farbe in&lt;br /&gt;gelb zu verändern, also nutzt es gefälligst auch.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Viele Grüße,&lt;br /&gt;Fabian&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16723903-112671683511237572?l=mcfabulous.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/feeds/112671683511237572/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16723903&amp;postID=112671683511237572&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/112671683511237572'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16723903/posts/default/112671683511237572'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mcfabulous.blogspot.com/2005/09/knckebrot-und-ein-elch-endlich-in.html' title=''/><author><name>Mr. Fabulous</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01394866517785174593</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16723903.post-112670340182530241</id><published>2005-09-14T13:01:00.000Z</published><updated>2005-09-14T19:09:23.406Z</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Die Reise dorthin, wo wir jetzt sind&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;seit einiger Zeit besitze ich ein Auto. Es ist vom führenden&lt;br /&gt;und besten Automobilhersteller Volkswagen. Gut für mich,&lt;br /&gt;gut für Vanessa, schlecht für die Automobilkonkurrenz.&lt;br /&gt;Schon früh stellte sich heraus, dass dieses Auto ein guter&lt;br /&gt;Partner für unsere Schwedenreise darstellen sollte.&lt;br /&gt;Vollgepackt mit tollen Sachen die das Leber schöner machen&lt;br /&gt;düsten wir also los. Das ist jetzt mittlerweile bereits über einen&lt;br /&gt;Monat her, aber macht euch nichts draus.

Darum werde ich zukünftig&lt;br /&gt;meine Erlebnisse in Schweden, wo ich zur Zeit ein&lt;br /&gt;Auslandssemester verbringe, in dieser Form veröffentlichen.&lt;br /&gt;Da ich auch ein sehr guter Fotograf bin (es liegen mir zur Zeit&lt;br /&gt;diverse Anfragen von renommierten Modezeitschriften vor),&lt;br /&gt;werde ich meine Erlebnisse auch mit Bildern unterlegen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ich habe unten auf der Seite einen Zähler eingebaut. Sobald&lt;br /&gt;die Anzahl von 100 Besuchen pro Woche auf meiner Website&lt;br /&gt;unterschritten wird, werde ich unverzüglich mit dem berichten&lt;br /&gt;aufhören und ihr könnt euch wieder vor die Glotze hocken...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rechts oben auf der Seite findet ihr eine Umfrage, in der ich&lt;br /&gt;euch Fragen zu aktuellen brennenden Themen stelle. Ich werde&lt;br /&gt;die Ergebnisse wöchentlich veröffentlichen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Viel Spaß und gute Unterhaltung,&lt;br /&gt;Fabian&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;P.S.: Das hübsche Mädel, dass ihr ab und zu auf den Bildern seht&lt;br /&gt;       ist übrigens meine Freundin Vanessa.
