My life as a field reporter ;)

Hey everyone,

I told you, I would post the link for the AhornTV episode as soon as it was there...and here it is:

Sorry, dass ich nur einen Link habe, bei meinen Videos funktioniert es irgendwie nicht..:S

I hope, you enjoy the episode! :) I at least had fun to stand infront of the camera...you can tell by me laughing a lot. :D And my boss was so "nice" to not cut it out. :P

Btw, I forgot to mention sth. yesterday. I can knit now! :) So far, I have knitted two scarves...photos to come soon!



And since today, I got a library card! That library is huge, I can tell you guys...you can get lost in it! :P Or at least don't find the book you are looking for..;)

Ganz liebe Grüße,
Nina

Ein Lebenszeichen...;)

Hello hello hello...

yes, I am finally back. Sorry it took me so long...I just..I don't know. I guess, I was just lazy. :D

I just realized, that I wrote "See you in a bit" in my last post. Oups. Oh well.
BUT as time has gone by a little, I have more to tell now. Always see the good things in life, right? ;)

SO. A lot of things to tell, where should I begin?

Maybe I should start with my new part time job which isn't quite as new anymore but oh well. :D
About a month ago, I got a part time job at the Vancouver Giants Merchandise Shop. The Vancouver Giants is a junior hockey team (remember, I saw their game? :) ) and what I do is to sell all kinds of merchandise stuff. T-Shirts, pullovers, trinkets,...and much more. I work there on home game days which is about twice a week and each session is about five hours long (in the evening after my internship). It's a fun job. :) I have really nice co-workers and it is great to talk to customers. It was definitely the right step and it is another good experience in Canada that I am going to take home to Germany. And it is so Canadian! I mean...ice hockey! ;)

At my internship, there is also going on more than before. Christmas time has just started and Sharleen (the other German girl) and me are preparing for a Christmas show that we do on our own. Look forward to two episodes full of Christmas! :D Even if you don't like Christmas! ;)
Sharleen and me already started filming for the show. For example, we went to different Christmas events and we baked Vanillekipferl. :) Yummy! :)



As part of the Christmas time, the Vancouver Christmas Market has started. And this Christmas Market is mostly German which brings a tiny bit of Germany into the city of Vancouver. This means Glühwein, Waffeln and more...:)

Here are photos of the set-up:




Talking about the set-up...with AhornTV, we did a show about that (also with TulipTV) and guess, who did the moderation? Right, me! So this weekend, my face will be spread over Canada's Tvs...as long as people watch AhornTV! ;) It's not on Youtube yet, but I will post this link here as soon as it is uploaded! :) It was fun!

On Friday, the Christmas Market actually started and this is, how it looks like now:





I just tried to find a good way to lead from the Christmas Market to something else...couldn't think of anything good. Therefore: It was also my birthday during that period of time that I didn't write. I worked that day, but after work I went out for a drink with the other intern Menno. Beer samples, yay! :) And afterwards, there was cake waiting for me at home...my hostbrother Daniel baked it for me. :)



As a little late present I got from my boss 1kg of eukalyptus candies one week after my birthday. ;)

For my birthday, I also had a nice party at my house. Jenga, Who am I?, werwolves, pizza buns....it was fun. :) Thanks to all my friends that were there!




Now I don't know what else I should write, so I will provide you with something that I do a lot: Photos. Vancouver has gotten frosty. ;)









Btw, I am watching the Hunger Games (the first part) on netflix with my hostfamily right now. ;)
 And I'll probably see the next one next week...

Oh, and before I say "Bye Bye" ...our parrot does! Watch our cute mascot Rocky!


And my advice for you until the next post...any time...ALWAYS.


Und nun: Tschüssi! :) Bis zum nächsten Mal...:)
