Well - here goes............

I want to describe some events before I forget them all.

We sang clearly! < May the Empire Continue> was exciting.
I also enjoyed Qanqor's new song - the melodies revolve around eachother.
And I hope that <Today's Morning> is never forgotten.

The food was slightly dull at the first dinner but the friends were certainly interesting.
My wife, my son and my son's friend accompanied me.
While we were eating, the child asked me "How do you say 'Good eating tonight' in Klingon?".
I emitted noisey gas from my stomach for a reply. They really laughed. Now, I regret my joke - they always burp intensly.

The <secret word> was great again. I enjoyed watching that game. Sometimes words are certainly funny. <at the same time> was one word. To describe it, one can say <it apparently occurs again>. The partner didn't understand. Immediately, the opponent said <it apparently occurs again>. I almost fell to the floor because I was laughing so hard.

We tried to watch the satelite lights. The clouds interfered. We succeeded when we tried again and I apparently saved my honour.

This year we few were strong, last year we few were weak. Perhaps we were few but we were certainly skilled! I was shocked. Usually, it was easy for us to understand eachother. Often we just sat and chatted. I was very happy because of this (event). Habitually, if I need to speak I use the klingon language. Good language is certainly vertical(??)

Qov's disguise was excellent. You were unlucky not to see it. She is certainly a fierce Klingon warrior, and she is apparently skilled at making the clothing also.

<Next year to Qo'nos! Next year to the homeworld!> I am late saying these words. I should have said them as the qep'a' was finishing. But a late word helps many, no word(s) helps few - right?

How did I do?
