The mysterious parcel and other thingies

As has been announced yesterday, I went to the post office early this morning. I had to line up first for about ten minutes because there were so many people waiting to do whatever. Why does everyone have to go to the post office on a Saturday at 9.30 am?! I seriously don't get people. Anyway, while waiting I noticed a small text on the notice the delivery person left at my letter box. I didn't bother reading it up until that moment. It said that I only could fetch the parcel from 11 am onwards. But I was lucky, I talked to a really nice post office employee who said he remembered scanning the parcel earlier this morning so he fetched it for me and I left the office delighted. Anyway, here are the mysterious contents:


Swedish sweets! And what a cute post card <3 Thank you mysterious sender! 

You might have noticed that my drawing challenge picture for today isn't thaaaat well done. Here's why: I didn't have enough time because I played around with gimp a lot today :D Have a look at the results:

Did you notice the lomo effect? It was done using Michael's tutorial. It's so easy you should give it a try yourself! With another tutorial I made this:


Pretty, eh? And last but not least a once in a lifetime chance: I actually took a picture of myself that I kinda really liked. I couldn't resist adding the lomo effect from earlier. You probably won't ever see another image of myself :D


Bonne nuit!

Look what I got

One of the very rare postcards I receive :) It's from Sweden. The previous postcard that I received from that sender was from Japan. I wish I'd be able to travel as much as him. (Hint: If you're traveling, send me a postcard! :D)


Aside from that my internet connection and landline have been broken for four consecutive days. I called my ISP's support today only to learn that it's supposed to be a failure not only for me but for the whole metropolitan area I live in. I was told to wait patiently, they are trying to fix it already and I'd get my money back for the down time duration. It still sucks. I cannot recommend KabelBW as my ISP of choice anymore. It shouldn't take more than four days to fix a connection issue.
