(12) Esslingen

On the rood again !

err actually on the tracks
but really fast train tracks (:
the ICE has a cruising speed of
200km/h
unlike MRT with only 90km/h

if Singapore had ICE we could travel
from woodlands to Sentosa in
10 min :))


(but if the train driver were to dream for even a sec the train will overshoot past siloso beach and end up in pulau bukom)


Yes the sewerage cover says it all
it says :
"here is were all the German shit for
m Esslingen flow through"
they forgot to mention that some of
the lumps down there belonged to a
Singaporean guy.

if you don't believe that this is what
is written learn German and proof
me wrong








Esslingen is located along a famous
German river called Neckar it is
367km long











their orchard rood (closed after 7 on
week days, 1/2 day on Saturday
and Sunday not open at all)

how i wish Singapore was like that
too hahaha half of the female
population will just die from
shopping cold turkey hahaha

(look out for more on German
opening hours in the next post)










i'm also a fan of nice old romantic
streets








MCQ (1 life)
if you want to cross this small road
in the foreground of this picture,
you should

A) look Right
B) look Left
C) look Up
D) admire the inside of your eyelids

Ans
Actually there is a zebra crossing










this used to be the old city wall.
kinda look like a big piece of
dark chocolate to me









finally i arrived at Hochschule
Esslingen (Uni)
this is 1 of the 3 campuses.

the labs look really cool, it's quite
unlike those we have in SG. not
that it is any better just that the
labs here look like one could really
build something here and not just
study.



(btw most masters course here are conducted in englich for more info for how to study here please contact your friendly and handsome tour guide)






more strange things













in the olden days people took photos using the
state of the art stone and chisel Kodak camera
(modal number negative 3000 and lower).
it usual took a month to develop. for some faces
a special film is required, namely the
dynamite film.















ah here is the tour guide i was
talking about. and look, in hand he
has the map of esslingen
(cause he is not lost)












this is were i tried to renew my visa. but after
hanging on to my passport for 2+ weeks they
told me this was the wrong city, i had to go to
göppingen to renew it.

if things don't work out, your dream will come
true. you'll be seeing me sooner then exacted :)







QNA (1 life)
if you want to cross this road, you
should
A) look Right
B) look Left
C) look Up
D) look at your eyelids form the inside

A,B,C & D are right cause this is
Pedestrian Area though i'm not quite
sure what will hapen to you if you
chose D




you may need to click on the picture
to see this.

can you see the guy on the pole that
goes through the chocolate bar?

look closer and you'll see that that
that guy is me.
(if you do see my face on the guy
pls stop viewing my blog and visit a
doctor ok)



so now we all know where the Malaysians
copied the idea from.

do you know why they build the bridge between
the 2 towers?

original 1000+ years ago when they build the
two towers there was no bridge, the chief of
army wanted to keep his watchman fit so he
put the telephone & PS-zero in one tower and
the satellite tv & the A-box in the other. it is
only later after the law for overweight friendly
watchman was passed did they build the bridge.










the view from my school


it's hard not to daydream.













the river in front of my school.

that morning i saw 7 swons, never knew that
they existed out side captivity

anyway kinda nice to have a diff bird on the
plate other then duck rice











ok from this pic on i'm heading to
the 2nd campus. on the the map the
2nd campus was only 1.8 km walk
from the train station.












what the map did not say was that it
was on a hill















the hill was quite high
















alot higher

















MORE STARES !!! ahh






















AHHHHH help.

















i never knew that getting an education was so
hard.
