Day 125 Free Concert

Bjarne came to SG yesterday, I attempted to be a good guide, but I found we were making circles all the time. It was fine, coz SG was in circles anyway, and there were many places to see except making circles in the old town.

After dinner, we felt like some music, n we saw that there's an easy listening concert going on in the Tonhalle, tho we were already 10 mins late, we decided to give it a shot. The guy in the hall told us with pity that the tickets were sold out, so we turned back. As we were about to step out of the gate, the guy came shouting after us "Moment!" He then offered to take us to the balcony seats, but he said that it's not official.

It was really lucky for us and the guy is just so kind. We enjoyed the concert tho it's mainly a religious concert to show the way to heaven.

Day 104 Free Light, and light n light n light n more light

Night is getting longer, days are getting shorter, a group of couchsurfers decided to give out some free light (knicklicht) in Zuerich.

Because of the extreme coldness as you can see. We took some Gluhwein to make outselves warm. But it's still too cold to not put your hands in the pocket but giving out light sticks, so we ended up going to one of the guys place, turned out he's a laser freak. Here's the awesome fellow n his equally awesome apartment.

Now the laser show starts. Laser always goes with smoke.

And homemade fireworks!!!

And some other creatures.

Day 103 Mysterious Graffiti on the Wall n I got a FINE =[

This is the last day of class! Yoohoo! I'm going to meet Trevor in Zuerich. Before that, I made a short stop at Stella's place to catch 3 pieces of Cheese Fondue (a heh).

This is the best piece I've ever made.

Now, in Zuerich, I found this gem on the wall. I've seen it in several places in Duesserdorf before while walking around the city with a CouchSurfer, Robin. He didn't know who the artist before. But 2 months after I left he saw a documetory on TV, and sent me the link. So this guy called Harald Naegli was doing art in Germany because the Swiss gov thought graffiti is a crime. heh... Anyway, we see it again in Zuerich today now.

N this, Dada bar. Dedicated to Michael Ozone, the owner of Dada Bar, Shanghai.

Later, I left ZH around 1am, as I got a Gleis 7 card, which everyone says one can take train within Switzerland 7pm-5am, so I think, I can just hop on a train n go back. Then came the dudes checking tickets, I showed them my card. The guy said that it's not enough. What do you mean by not enough, I asked.

You need to pay more.

Ok, how much? I asked.

80.

18 or 80? I asked.

80!

80?! I'm confused. Then the guy next to me explained to me that there's an extra 5 CHF charge for really night trains during weekend. And since I didn't have that ticket, they are giving me a fine of 80 CHF. I can't buy the 5 CHF ticket now, I have to pay the fine which they will send the bill later. Damn! That's corrupted. There's nothing in English explaining this retarded rule at all. If they ask me to pay 5 CHF, I would be happy to pay, but, argh,,, they are just corrupted.

Day 102

Ich habe meine Deutschpruefung gehaben.

And I managed to fell on the ground the 2nd time within a month. Last time hurt my right knee, this time the left one. Lengen... wait for it... dary! Yah, I know, again... but how can you stop loving this guy.

Day 100

What did I do on my 100th day in St. Gallen?

I didn't sleep until 6 in the morning to finish the Strategic Management paper, only to handed it after the deadline.

I slept for 3 hours and then went to my German written test. Nicht schwer =]

And I made my 1st batch of sushi of my life. According to my flatmates, they are pretty successful.

I'm so going to put this into my blog.
