17th November 2005 - Day 45

Probably the most exciting thing that happened today was using the washing machine to wash my clothes.

Hah! The colours didn't fade. Partly because I only threw in the older clothes which has survived many a wash cycles. So there's not much colour to fade too.

Special tokens are required to use the washing machine. If you're wondering why I did not use the washing machine earlier, it's because I cannot find the tokens. One might have to dig into plant pots in order to find it.

How the tokens look like

Then where did I find the tokens today? I didn't. I bought it from someone else. I saw him did exactly that. Fishing out the tokens from his favourite pot of plant.

What a weird place to keep the tokens!

The wet clothes are in the dryer now and should be ready for wear soon. The washing machine can handle a load of maximum of 5 kg, while the dryer can take in 7. Does that mean that 5 kg of clothes after wash is about 7 kg? At least they were thoughtful enough not to buy dryers of 5 kg maximum capacity.

Tomorrow afternoon, I'll be going to Köln. Meeting up with a friend and some/many other Singaporean students in Germany. The appointment with that friend is almost 2.5 years late. Time really flies.

So, I should go and find some other places to go after Köln if there's no tutorials on Monday.
