Ok, as everyone was able to see, my participation in "30 days of me" has somewhat stalled. Here are days 12 to 20 - just for the sake of getting a bit further towards completion...:)

Day 12- How you found out about Blogger and why you made one

This doesn't quite apply, but anyway. This blog started on Moveable Type in 2003, a few months later it was converted to be a mixture of MT code with add-ons written in ColdFusion and nowadays I'm running WordPress. Why did we start this? There was a need for a ColdFusion-blog in German back in 2003 :-)

Day 13- A letter to someone who has hurt you recently

Actually, I haven't been that badly hurt for quite a long time to have the need to write such a letter. Even if I had, not sure if I would post it here.

Day 14- A picture of you and your family

Well, close :-) Here's a photo of my dad and my mum. I took it (reasonably) recently when I was in Germany in May/June this year.

Day 15- Put your iPod on shuffle: First 10 songs that play

Midnight Lady - Chris Norman
Things Change - Bluetones
Whiskeyclone - Beck
Not that kind - Anastacia
See you in hell - Suicide Commando
Pervert - Descendents
Stand in Line - Midnight Oil
Piano Man - Billy Joel
Mother Night - Brett Anderson
Burger Queen - Placebo

Day 16- Another picture of yourself

Oh, seriously? Don't have any.

Day 17- Someone you would want to switch lives with for one day and why

Actually - the only person (and it's not even a real character - sigh) I could remotely come up with would be The Doctor.

Day 18- Plans/dreams/goals you have

1. Make sure that @blauerpunto gets fit and healthy again

From here on in no particular order:

• Make some progress on the flying front, particularly on working towards the Commercial License


• Pay off mortgage


• Get a holiday house/apartment at the Gold Coast and spend 4-5 months per year there and the rest of the time in Wellington


• Re-cofirm our wedding vowels on the 10th anniversary of our wedding somewhere on the equator (to be worked out where :)


• Travel to South America, in particular Chile, Peru, Argentina and Uruguay


• Go back to Japan for at least two more weeks and finally have a holiday on one of the Pacific Islands

Day 19- Nicknames you have; why do you have them

Koeni (also see koeni.de) - just because

Day 20- Someone you see yourself marrying/being with in the future

Ehh, that'd be Diane (@blauerpunto) :-)
