Hohnsen See

Lunch time.

Hallo!

Since my vocabulary is still very limited, please don't expect any German to appear here. Let's hope it will by the end of my visit. So I stay in this city called Hildesheim. Apparently it is quite a small city with oh so many churches in it. The happy thing is there are some festivals happening around and traveling to cities nearby is free once I pay for my student card. Horrah!

The Last Melbourne Job

Just in time, a job that I finished before I left Melbourne, made for a friend of mine. When I was making this, people kept telling me that it looks like a piece of Ikea. Sigh, I didn't mean that, perhaps the nord vibe was getting to me too soon. By the way, this is a bookshelf. The body was built using traditional domino joinery and stained black for the grain to subtly appear. Yet the two legs in front were modernly machined in four hours, then finished with a rub of Danish oil.

A Message

Dear friend,

Please stand by me, for this road is long and winding
You who I miss for caressing me in hard times
and laughing with me in my heydays
How could I survive without you?

I am letting you know that you can count on me
Wherever I am, whatever time difference is
For you have let me to hold on to you
Any hours of the day, any days of the year

Please go and get your dream,
Your life is waiting for you
Start making bad decisions,
Doing things that you have never thought of

This is a message for you,
Just in case you need a slight kick
To help you trip over
And stand tall again

Like how I've always known you
