Ku'Damm, Asian Party!

The weather was BEAUTIFUL today! Felt so fat and lazy to go out at first, but I had to. Went to Alexanderplatz to meet a lady interested in buying my bicycle. Yes, I'm selling it! Put an ad online 2 days ago and received some replies already. The lady I met was a normal, tall, big, German lady and the bike was too small. She tried riding it for awhile; looked really weird. LOL. Wonder if I look the same when I ride it too :S

TV Tower. Beautiful Blue Sky!! :D

Checked the bank to see if I was rich. OMG. No. No money came in yet. Heart sank. Nonetheless, I did not let this day go to waste. Window-shopped at Alexa till 3pm. Went home, ate some lunch and went out to Kufürstendamm, where the famous KaDeWe was.

On the way to Ku'Damm: Philharmonic Concert Hall!

Cornelius bridge!

Not a famous bridge but beautiful canal! :P

Memorial Church at Ku'Damm

Ku'Damm is the shopping area of West Berlin. Thought that Alexa was very nice to shop in already as all the essential shops I like are there. I thought wrong. Ku'damm was many times better than Alexa! In this small area, there were at least 3 H&M stores already! So many of all the good stuff everywhere!

Had a Mövenpick ice cream once again. €1.70 for one BIG scoop in a huge waffle cone. Yummy:)

Mövenpick!!!

Saw this Buddy-Bear exhibition hidden among tall buildings! It was a temporary exhibition; they move from one country to another. 27 bears, each representing a country from the EU! :)

Germany!

Say what!

Recognise Gaudi from Spain?

Italy, Ireland and Greece!

Window-shopped some more around the area.. Good thing that Jose lent me €20. Bought a top that costs only €4.50! haha happy! :P

Green top?

Red's nicer! I bought! :D

Visited KaDeWe after that. Huge shopping mall - 7 storeys! Everything was so expensive... Browsed around, read a book about the Berlin Wall. Found out that I live just 1km away from where the wall was in the past. Cool.

KaDeWe Entrance!

KaDeWe = Kaufhaus des Westens = Shopping house of the West!

Berlin Wall at Potsdamer Platz, remembered by brick lines on floor

Reached home at about 9pm, nua-ed for a while and prepared to go out to party!! Met Hong-Linh at 11:30pm and walked to Spindler & Klatt Club, 20 mins away from my place! Asian Party again. Saw Tharn and Isabel in the queue. As we reached the front, they asked for our ID and omg, I left my wallet at home. Tried to sneak in with Tharn's ID but they were so damn strict! Had to walk back and take wallet. 1 hour passed before we finally got in. Got to go in for free cos the staff got a bit mixed up! Nice! hehe :P

The Club was really pretty!! It was along the Spree River and there were beds, sofas and benches for u to relax and chill. The dance floor was basically like a big empty warehouse with some curtains draped here and there, loud speakers and booze! Music was too soft I found, but at least they play better music!!! :D

In the Club, warehouse with curtains & nice lights

Met Hong-Linh's other group of friends who study Business. They seem very different from Tharm & Isabel! Was interesting to note how different pple from different facs are. hehehe :P

Female Friends of Hong-Linh

The girls studying Business!

Me, my new top and Hong-Linh! haha :P

Outside the club, along the Spree. Nice seats! :D

On the dance floor :)

One more group shot! :D

I look Cheena here for once, agree? And I love Hong-Linh's camera! :D

Had a really nice time there, loved the design and location of the club! But at about 4am, all of his friends had left, leaving just us alone there. So early! Left soon after, since we agreed to go to Gärten der Welt (Gardens of the World) tomorrow.
