12 of 12 (3.0) - AUGUST 2008

It's this time of the month again! *happydance* 12 of 12 is the brainchild of Chad Darnell. Just go to his blog for his 12 of 12 and the 12 of 12's of many other people from all around the globe. :) Mine is actually more of 17 of 12 this month -- I got a little excited. *blush*

8:30
The obligatory alarm clock shot.

8:42
The first thing I did after waking up was turn on the TV for the Olympics. This is our women in the 10m platform diving competition. No medal for us this time...

8:58
Breakfast on the couch.

13:20
I had to go to the post office to send a letter to my mom. Just as I was about to leave it started to rain.

13:21
Christin was not amused.

13:33
Post box in front of the post office.

13:40
I already saw this on my way out, glued to the front door of our building. It's a letter from our superintendent, complaining about a white paint stain in front of the door and asking for the delinquent to remove it or else the whole house will have to pay for a professional removal. :o

13:40
The object of dispute. No way, I'm not going to pay for this to be removed!

16:48
Taking a break from working on my thesis, I got inspired to write something non-thesis-related for a word/photo prompt on a message board. This is the first draft, still lacking some formatting and editing.

17:43-18:23
Olympics!! Our 3rd and 4th Golds for today, sport: eventing! This was very fascinating! I was so excited so I took quite a few pictures and then couldn't decide, which ones to post so I posted all of them. :D




19:40 & 19:47
Anatomy of a salad.

20:15
I've entered a photo competition on a German website (something like Facebook). It's titled "MeinVZ verbindet" (something like "'German FB lookalike' connects people") and the photos they are looking for should show people/animals/things that are in some way connected. The three best pictures will be published in a monthly magazine and will win a dSLR! I'll keep my fingers crossed. The second picture shows which photo I've submitted. It's from my 366 blog.

See you next month for my birthday 12 of 12. :D
