Arts & Crafts

Hello you all!
Last Friday I got the results to my exam. As I expected, I passed, I even got a "2" which is like the American "B" (well, kind of). I'm happy with it, and now I started the second course (with the same teachers and except for 3 ppl- the same students). My Chilean friend passed as well- and now she's in my class, and I'm really happy for her, coz she used to be in my old class, and as you already know- it sucked. Not surprisingly, most of the ppl who didn't pass the exam were from that class. I really feel bad for them coz I know it's mainly the fault of their pathetic bad teachers... Oh well, being a real Israeli (who fights for her rights) did pay off!

I finally finished the baby blanket I made for Adi's baby
(who looks so cute in the pictures she sends me),
it took me a few months to knit it, and here are the results:

I'm going to send it to her tomorrow via post, and since she doesn't have any time to read my blog nowadays (having a baby might do that to you...) I feel free to put the pictures here before she even gets it.

P.S Liya! you see? I made it bigger, babies, as you mentioned, do grow fast!!!

Till next time!

Well, well... first of all:

Congratulations!

Speaking better German = feeling more integrated (= feeling more German?) :S

And then congratulations too for the blanket. It looks like a real one now (I mean, it was great before, but it had more the width of a scarf, lol). When I saw the pics I thought u hade knitted a beige one too... and I had a business idea... we can talk about that ;)

I have, and will have, a lot of time to think now, u know (yes, even more). Jakob is, and will be, away for business 3 days a week (now I don't know if :( or :) )

Anyway, I'll tell u more about it next time we talk. I am having lunch with a Chinese friend today (trying to reactivate my Chinese, and my contact list too).

Hope to see u again soon!

By the way, why do all these Viagra adds appear every time I want to post a comment?

Ups, I hope this can take these kind of long comments :P

Hey Liya!
I don't know about the adds, but it's true- blogspot has a lot of adds popping up. With firefox it's less annoying though (less of them get through).

and about the feeling German-
I'll never feel German-
but I also don't want to feel German!

talk to you soon!

Hey, you, why don't you post something in my blog?

I know it's very dead :P, but I promise to put something new soon!

I have to go and do a lot of homework now, and I have less than an hour for that. And I still need to have lunch. And I don't even know how to install our new router.

And I don't feel like doing any of the things I should be doing!!!
