May 27 – Kinderfest
There’s a festival going on next to my house. They have this thing once every three years and the whole town takes a holiday. This is one of those things that would never happen in North America. The festival is only one day – today – but I’ve been hearing music for days. People have been driving up and down my driveway (which connects to the field with the festival) in cars and farm equipment and anything that’s loud. My quiet little neighbourhood is overrun by people and cars and dogs and trucks and equipment. I want them all to go away! Hahaha.
It’s so funny, but all the noise and ruckus is bothering me, even though I am gonna go and see what it’s all about. The music is shaking my house. I just got back from being in a computer lab for 9 hours working on a statistics take-home exam. I want it to be quiet and I want to relax. I sound like an old woman, but I don’t care. I’d also like to know why they take weeks to prepare for this event that happens once every 3 years, but then they only have it for ONE day and then they spend weeks taking it down. I think I’m also annoyed that, because of this spontaneous holiday, I have no food. I stole my roommate’s food for breakfast, ate at the university for lunch (first time), and have yet to figure out dinner.

Ok, I went to the Kinderfest thingie. The only thing of interest that I have to report is that the one of the guys who were BBQing the sausages was named: RICHARD STILLHARD. Haha!!! No joke. And, if you think of "Dick" as another name for "Richard," then... Pfffttt!!! LOL! I took a picture, because he was wearing a nametag, but somehow it got lost. [Edit: I found the picture (obviously)! See below.] It's still freaking funny. Oh, and on the way to the train station the other day, I saw a poster advertising the "BLUE BALLS FESTIVAL". Puahahaha!!!! I have no idea what it's for, I'll try to pay attention next time after I subdue my laughter.
