Undemanding and Typical Life

I don't desire my children to be as gifted as Albert Einstein.

Yes, this is true and I have a valid reason why I don't desire my children to be as gifted or great as German physicist Albert Einstein. Call me a freak, but I would desire my future sons and daughters to live a typical and happy life. I desire them to enjoy and appreciate every moment of their youth so that when they become adults, they can share their experiences with their children. I also desire to see them playing with other kids instead of locking themselves up in their rooms and memorizing the elements of the periodic table and the various chemical reactions. I don't desire them to be extra gifted like Einstein because they might not be able to handle fame and greatness well.

As a parent, I just desire my children to lead a normal and undemanding life. Of course, I desire them to be intelligent and dynamic someday but in minimum level. I don't desire them to be a genius and master of everything because I desire them to enjoy childhood. Is that too much to wish by a parent like me who just desires the best for his children?

First-rate and Wonderful Steffi Graf

Until now, tennis addicts worldwide are still speculating who could follow the footsteps of tennis superstar Steffi Graf. With a lot of budding tennis stars and lack of dominant players in the women's tennis tournaments nowadays, it looks like that these tennis addicts will have to wait for another ten years or feasibly longer.

Incidentally, Steffi Graf, who is freely married to equally endowed tennis player Andre Agassi, is also German. She is one of those top Germans who have proved the entire world how wonderful Germans were. This wonderful girl who I idolized few years back is also included in the list of most prominent Germans in the history. She is one first-rate woman who excelled in her chosen field and even broke and made various records in tennis history. Based on my observations, it's thorny to duplicate what Steffi has achieved because of different factors. The principal explanation, I think, is the lack of dominant woman player on any type of tennis court.

Now, Steffi Graf is adding a new milestone to her unimpeachable career by being a mother to her two children and a caring wife to Andre. Is there any grandslam feat, and reward better than that?

Stimulating and First-rate Offers in Berlin

If I would be touring Germany, the first destination that I would desire to visit is none other than its capital city, Berlin. This historic and well-known capital city is not just a destination filled with historical events but also great and stimulating places to enjoy. According to Sherman's Travel.com, one of America's largest online providers for tourism and travel, the German capital city is known as one of the unsurpassed summer destinations this year. It is one of those "must-see" cities that everyone should see and recognize markedly during summer.

During summer, there are also many stimulating offers and prices that everyone should take advantage in Berlin. This is the greatest time wherein we can experience Berlin at the most practical price we could imagine. With an practical accomodation available, we can view the beautiful beaches as well as enjoy sunny afternoons and barmy summer nights along side with acquaintances while drinking your favorite drink. There is also a greater chance that you can meet new acquaintances or perhaps a new loved one. So, what are you waiting for, do not be comfortable with historical facts and pictures, make a reserved room now and enjoy Berlin at its best.

A Compliment To The Holiday Of Beer Drinking In Germany

I'm busy counting the months until the month of October comes, and when it does, I'll book myself to the next flight to Germany to join the approaching Oktoberfest festivity! Imagine, seeing a enormous mass of people and beer, having fun together in the biggest and most notable festival in Europe.

Historically, the Oktoberfest began as part of the celebrations during the much-anticipated matrimony of the leader of Bavaria, Ludwig and his bride, Princess Therese. Since then, the Germans have been celebrating and commemorating the festivities of their monarch's grand day, even attracting visitors to join in the fun. The fun is out in the streets, complete with singers and dancers to stimulate the environment -- not like it needed any, but it's needed.


Tourism surges in Germany during that month, with beer lovers and adventurers wandering to Munich several days before the Oktoberfest. Hotels are full, inns work non-stop, while breweries churn out kegs and kegs of beer, enough to cause a flood. As the very first tub is opened, the food is passed around, and you can't help but be surprised as virtual strangers become close pals instantly. With that kind of festivity, I yearn that October comes twice every year.

Schumacher Continues to Expose His Wonderful Skills

Germany is not only the land of virtuosos when it comes to music and sciences; it is the home of the unsurpassed racer in the world, Ferrari's Michael Schumacher. The world's unsurpassed Schumacher was born in Hürth Hermülheim, adjacent to Cologne. He is a seven-time Formula One world title holder and holds many Formula One records, which include most drivers' championships, race victories, fastest laps, pole positions, and most races obtained in a single season. Moreover, Schumacher is the only German to obtain the drivers' championship and is considered as one of the best paid sportsmen in the world, courtesy of an estimated US$80 million earning annually as of 2004.

This man has been popular throughout his career for his ability to produce fast laps at decisive moments in a race and for his abilities in the wet. Though, he is faced with several new challengers, Schumi still manage to put a good fight. Last year, team Ferrari did not accomplished well but this season, the team led by Schumacher is once again proving that in racing, there can only be one team to beat, and that is Ferrari. Thus, expect more exciting years with Ferrari as Michael Schumacher continues to show his wonderful prowess.
