And now let's take some time for this

Well done, Germany!

BRB…

…just had to run to 2012 for a sec…

Also, what a game on Tuesday, eh?

So it's that time again…

This time it's more tough though, because now I also have Korea... and I also have no freetime. Whatever shall one do in such case?…

Merry Christmas!

… and that would do for most of my followers, I guess. :) (I hope I got the Polish and the Chinese special characters right. I’d really hate if I ended up wishing “Happy Chickensoup” or something like that.)

featuring: the brilliant and always dashing Tenth Doctor and the also brilliantly dashing Susi Poppins Steier, BGFF of mine.

Like seriously, ever since Speak Out has started, the majority of my visitors are from Germany. And even considering that one of them is Dusi, using the Internet of a German company in Hungary, it's still a not negligible amount of visitors. Thank you Susi, thank you sandraandwoo (and thank you Google), and 

WELCOME NEW GERMAN VISITORS!

Do you remember that semi final between Germany and Italy? Balotelli and stuff, get it?...

 So yes, I cheer for the Germans. Just to inform any Hungarian who'd like to bring up 1954... I'd gladly cheer for my own country but somehow we just don't happen to be at these great football competitions. As soon as the Hungarian team will get in, I swear, I totally cheer for them, all up to the moment they get beaten in the first round.

Previously I didn't even see the point in watching it at all. I mean, let's be honest, if you don't find any team you can bind to, it is just differently dressed guys running on striped grass. Until one day my dear friend, Susi asked me:
– Hey, will you watch the world cup?
– No, I won't. Hungary couldn't make it so I don't really see the point.
– But if you had a friend whose country is playing... I mean...  you could cheer for them, couldn't you?
– Yea, but I don't really have... wait a second... you're German, right?...

So from that point, I'm cheering for Germany. Now you know, and if you still have problems with it, well, “haters gonna hate”.

*kürbis gut = it's a loan translation of a Hungarian phrase which means “very cool” or something like that. Yea, I know that's not an actual German phrase, but it' just for fun.

So a little explanation for that one too. This drawing was obviously made before the semi-final, and I was just imagining the moment I go out to a public place – a pub or something – in my german-cheering-outfit to watch the Final... You know, in Hungary it's not a big tradition to cheer for Germany, nevertheless it is, to cheer for Spain – I have absolutely no idea why by the way. Unless, they want to choose a team that will most likely win, which doesn't seem to me any more reasonable than to cheer for your BGFF's (Best German Friend Forever) country's team.)

It is kinda my personal interpretation of a song from a German band called Wir Sind Helden. It's point originally is a lot different tho.

That is true. Chinese people only wear green hats when they want to tell the outside world that their spouse is cheating on them. Without trying to philosophize on the fact that anyone would want to communicate such thing to the outside world, it's an interesting thing isn't it.

But as for Susi, my 17th follower, I don't even know where to start… Maybe the easiest way to sum her personality up is to say: she is the German me, while I'm the Hungarian Susi. It is hard to tell which one of us had bigger impact on the other. Although, it is a fact that after living together for a half year I passed my lateness-carma to her, the most punctual person I know – <cough> no cultural prejudices. Also, she's the person who's name probably gonna be well known worldwide from our (expectedly) famous musical: Susi Poppins. But more on that maybe later. 

As you might have found out, she currently lives in China, teaching English for little chinese children. But I don't have to be uninformed about her everyday life, because we can still skype sometimes, and she also reports her friends about her curious adventures in her newsletters written on literary work style, which will make a pretty good book sometime in the future.


So you'd better remember her name, people!
