I'm famous *thud*

Since president Obama visited my homecity Dresden yesterday several pictures of me can be found in the web. Apparently people really liked my little Obama figure! I also got interviewed and appeared on some German TV-channels: ZDF, N-TV, RTL, Dresden-TV (and I have it all on tape!); plus my picture is in some newspapers as well: Dresdner Neueste Nachrichten, Morgenpost, Freie Presse and a quote without picture in the Sächsische Zeitung.

First, here are the pictures I took that day:

batch 1 (Thursday): http://dieastra.livejournal.com/5585.html

batch 2 (Friday): http://dieastra.livejournal.com/6545.html

And don't forget to look at my story how General O'Neill explained the Stargate programme to the new President: http://dieastra.livejournal.com/3687.html

Picture from Dresdner Neueste Nachrichten:



And at a stand of the Sächsische Zeitung you could get this picture:



It was here when RTL asked me what I was doing at the moment. Well, what does it look like? LOL I need to digitalize the video. It was in their main evening news, and afterwards my mother called: "I've seen you in TV!"

Dresdner Morgenpost:



Freie Presse (Chemnitz)



Video in ZDF heute:



Here's a link to the video, it jumps right to my moment: https://youtu.be/Y4M7DPXGq3c#t=1m22s

There's an Illya doll??? How did I miss that in my proto-Fangrrl youth??? (I was a fangirl for Illya Kuryakin before I was old enough to know what a "crush" was... Watched the show when it was new, 'til my parents decided to limit our TV viewing...)

If you don't know it yet, you should go to [Unknown site tag] , she also posts many pictures and stories about Illya.
