 * Add an entry by clicking the little "+" sign at the according date
 * Now you can name your event (“Name des Events”), change the date (“Datum”) of the event, set the duration in days (“Dauer in Tagen”) and choose if the event is recurring annually (“Jährlich wiederholen”). Confirm your entries by clicking "Eintrag erstellen".
 * To change or delete ("Event Löschen") an entry, just click on it
