My ToDo list

 * Learn Wikipedia Author Wrap-up by heart ;-)

 * Maybe write something about Tübingen, where I study, too.
 * Write an article about Hornstein, a small village in southern Germany. I've got a lot of nice pictures from there so that might be the first article for which I'll have to upload something (not that anyone would read it I suppose ;-)
