Now - I will show you a little bit about myself. The picture above is my "hello" to all of you. The picture looks a little strange. It's not me - it's an image from a CD cover! But I like the image and the colors. 

Here is a little introduction about me and the classes. You have to guess a few things first, so let's get started!

 

So that's all for now! I'll be glad to "see" all of you from next week!
