A quick update cause I had a fun day yesterday! :)

This is just going to be a quick one.. whilst I'm waiting for two films i'm trying to watch online to load!
So yesterday.. I went into Potsdam with Anne and we went to watch a Canoeing/Kayaking Race thingy in the canal! It was the Germans against the Hungarians! (that's what they are called right?)
Well anyway, that's irrelevant! We found ourselves a good position right next to the start line and waited! I think we got there a bit too early, but it meant we got a good view :D Finally.. the announcer said something incredibly fuzzy in German that I didn't understand.. then it all began! Well.. when I say began.. I mean there was about 20 minutes of 4 old men stood on a stage saying things auf Deutsch! I think they were saying some stuff about the canoe race thingy cause it was the 5th year they had done it! Then finally, one of the men said thankyou for coming and welcome to the 5th annual Potsdam canoe race.. in German though of course! hehe. Everyone cheered then these two girls were pulled along by a jet ski carrying a german flag and a hungarian flag!
Finally people got into their kayaks and raced! There was lots of races.. cause it was 1 v 1 each time. So they had to make sure everyone in every category got to race against each other! Thankfully though, the sun was shining and it was fun, so I didn't mind that it took so long to do all this! (Though I did regret the sun shining part later.. cause I am now a suitably unpleasant shade of pink! and my nose is sore!)
The Germans won pretty much all of the races.. I'm not sure what points people got for what.. but in the end I think it was something like 40 - 13 to the Germans!! So I cheered... didn't want anyone around me to think I didn't like them! Eep! Scary! :P hehe
Ohh and whilst I was stood watching all this... there was the scariest thing in the world ever!! I think it was a grasshopper! But it was like... 2 inches long and 0.5 inches wide and it was just sat on the wall right in front of me! Now.. I wouldn't exactly say i'm a fan of bugs! Quite the opposite.. so I almost screamed! Anne laughed at me and just said it's not dangerous! But I didn't take my eyes off that craftly little bugger for quite some time!! Eventually.. we had moved down a bit to let someone else squeeze in next to us.. and that person knocked it off the wall by accident and stood on it! I don't even think they realise now that they did it.. They are probably still walking round with grasshopper intestines on their shoe! So they will never know, even now.. how much they saved my life!! :| haha! Dramatic much?
Anywhoo after all this racing finished, they did a water ski show! There were jumps and everything and people were doing backflips and all sorts on their water skis! It was amazing! I wanted a go! Though knowing me Id be sat ready to be pulled along and i'd either let go of the rope or i'd just fall face first into the water and get dragged around in an oh so dignified manner! So lucky I didn't have a go! :P
After all that was done, Anne and I went to get some food! I had some form of steak sandwich.. It was called Nackensteak.. which I later found out was pork neck meat.. mmm tasty! ha. It wasn't half bad actually, bit fatty for my liking though! Then we went home.
At home, I read a bit more Lord of the Rings whilst I let Anne borrow my internet! Then I went on msn and was kept up til 3am! Was nice conversation though! So all is well! :D And now its umm about 1.50pm and I haven't done much today! So you are all officially up to date with my life!

Oohhhhh!! One more thing! I believe I may actually have moved to the sex capital of Germany!! Whilst being here, in Potsdam I have seen a total of 2 'erotic shops', an 'erotic cinema', an 'erotic dvd shop' and signs all over for an 'erotic fashion show'.. if this isn't the sex capital then it is most certainly the capital for all things erotic!! And no.. before you ask.. I haven't visited any of them!! You cheeky people!! hehe

That's all for now in my world!
Toodles!!
