'Our apartment is really totally great' Housewarming party - google translated


After we had on Wednesday in celebrating happy times already, it should go right down to business on Friday. Housewarming party birthday party for Sally plus. Sally and I were both a little out of practice when it comes to party planning, from are, therefore, we the whole thing quite relaxed in the American way addressed: one invites to 8 clock, beginning around the time also so slow to prepare for the party. We had also made about decorating ideas, and decided to leave the apartment to speak for themselves and add a few balloons. However, I was the only one with enough lung capacity to blow up (approach, …?), support to these small, nasty balloons.

The guests were also impressed polite. In this picture my two European post-doctoral fellow with the girlfriend of one.

Much decoration but was not even necessary, because our apartment is really totally great. We have a fire out with fire escape and so that you reach by climbing through the kitchen window. Should not really, but it is so beautiful. And yes, that’s like “Friends” and looks like this:

Our apartment is departing a long tube with a narrow hallway between the living room and kitchen, from which the two bedrooms and bathroom. It’s quite far from the living room to the kitchen. The party shifted periodically from kitchen to living room and back. Sometimes there were two parties. The birthday cake procession from kitchen to living room, unfortunately, something went wrong. We carried the kitchen toward the living room of bekerzten cake, began to sing and actually expected Sally sitting on the living room sofa. But she came right behind us laughed out of the bathroom and broke in when the birthday song died away.

And below you can see a bit of our kitchen. Jens’ former roomies, Nick and Michael:

More kitchen. Wiebki realize you have the lantern? In this picture, by the way are a few Americans, a Scot, one German, one Canadian, a Swede and a few unidentified.

We have entered the race with a refrigerator, which was a bit of beer and wine-filled (and nothing else). I do not know why the guests made fun of him and even cheeky designated as a German refrigerator. Finally, we are at least come out with souvenirs of the guests with a nice, colorful contingent of beer and wine out of it, and can still celebrate one or two after-parties.

Zoom in on our kitchen table with a great apple tablecloth:

In this kitchen, there was also the dance routine with me and a guest who had brought a friend, and I happen to know from the Swing Dance. The dance ended with a dip and failed me on the floor. And I just had to look really, how many S to write “failed”. Writes, “how many” we together?

And, Tadaa, here are the hosts. Sally, after a nap around 4:30 clock in the morning Sun, I think:

And I am - almost sober - disillusioned when I found myself with my half a hand in the mouth of Sweden, after I shipped the remains of the birthday cake in the fridge and a not insignificant amount of icing (something like chocolate coating, but much creamier and sweet) had glue on his fingers. I think I look a bit like this, as I would like to own abgeschlabbert the Icing:

By 5 clock, we are then got rid of the last guests, and at 8 clock, I’m standing out again to go to Baltimore. The kitchen floor looked way out of bad and bathroom and the hallway smelled of beer. A good party.
