I have found a plugin which makes it possible to integrate pictures uploaded to Flickr into Wordpress, so the “Photos” link in the navigation will now lead you to an overview of my photos on my site. I love how you can now see my (public) pictures without having to navigate away from this site.

If you want to see a lot of pictures within one album, the slideshow might be your best option, as I had to delete the navigation under each photo due to a bug.

I have adapted the code to match my layout so if you find any bugs, please let me know. To view private pictures, you will still have to go through my Flickr page. If any of you have a Flickr account and would like to be added to my contacts, just drop me a comment.

I am very happy this works because the photo pages now look exactly like the blog pages. Anything that will make my homepage more appealing to the eye is great.

By the way, all you Wordpress people out there might want to know which plugin I am using: http://tantannoodles.com/toolkit/photo-album/.

On Tuesday I picked out new glasses. I ended up getting a very light frame and consequently my parents agreed on getting the superthin lenses (40% thinner than the regular ones) because it would just look better. Since I am near-sighted the lenses are thicker on the outside, and that doesn’t go too well with a light frame. The glasses turned out a lot more expensive than my parents and I had planned, but they were okay with it, and the glasses look good, so I think it’ll be worth it.

Last night Julia, Sylvia and I went to the Wasserwerk, “our” bar, and had a pretty fun night. I had a Tropical Melone (vodka cocktail), and it was very good. They have redecorated a little at the Wasserwerk, but not too much, so it still looks a lot the same. Here is a picture of us outside the bar, and one I took of Julia’s coktail (she had a Swimming Pool), which I think looks kind of cool.

Sylvia is going on vacation on Sunday, so I hope we will get to hang out after I get back from Spain.

Eva and Tanja are also currently on vacation, so I haven’t been able to hang out with them.Tonight I am going out with Lejla and Eva who I haven’t seen in years, and I am pretty excited. I wonder how much they have changed - I know I have, too.

Next week Susi from Augsburg is celebrating her birthday, so I will be going there on Friday, and I also want to meet up with Susi from Amberg sometime that week, so I will have to see when that works out. I have a whole list of things to do next week, and I sure will be busy. A lot are just small errands though, thankfully, so I should be able to get a lot done in one day.

On Wednesday I went downtown. I gave blood and made some bargain purchases. I bought a pair of flip flops that was 70% off (now €2.97), a pair of earrings (€2.90) and sunglasses (€5.90). I also took a bunch of pictures of downtown Munich. I think, most people do not really pay attention to the beauty of this city. We all live here - it’s nothing special, just our every-day sourroundings. But when I am downtown with my camera I pay a lot more attention to the city, and I realize how gorgeous it is and it makes me so proud that Munich is my hometown.

These are the Neuhauser St [the street where all the stores are] with one of the towers of Our Lady’s Church in the background, and Karlsplatz/Stachus with the Palace of Justice in the background.

These are two pictures I took last week around Odeonsplatz when I went to the Bavarian State Library. The first is a statue of Louis I. on Ludwigsstr. (Louis St) and I just love the colors of the picture and the flowers in the foreground, and the second is of the interior of my (probably) favorite church in Munich, Theatiner Church at Odeonsplatz.

This one is one of the newly renovated restroom at the department store Karstadt Oberpollinger. I just liked how the mirrors kept reflecting each other to infinity.
