geee...
Well, folks,
i had posted something longer before - say, I wanted to post it, but my lovely machine broke down and I don't have the nerve right now to write it all again. That is like warming up fast food - just doesn't taste good anymore.
Right now something funny happened. I am sitting here in the living room, which is situated between the rooms and the stairs - so everybode comes through it, it's like a meeting place with sofas, TV, kitchen, table, stuff. However, I watch Sony Channel (something in English, god bless) and surf the net when a girl with her boyfriend comes in, sneaks through and they both get into the first of the 9 or so rooms in a row - which I thought was not occupied. I guess she is the daughter of the landlord here or so, because she had a key, maybe she rent the room, I have no idea. If I saw her before I don't remember. Guess what they did in there? I heard nothing, but I wouldn't bet on playing cards or so. As I closed the connecting door of the living room, I saw that they had not closed the door completely - so maybe they were just smoking they shouldn't smoke, or they just were to eager to get it on to care. Well, they came out half an hour later, looking quite happy. Good for them, whatever they did.
Oh wait - she just came in to get a pan. Heh? Oh well, maybe she is the girl that lives in one of the larger flats on the other side of the stairs. Hm. Why would she have used another room then? Does she have a child she doesn't want to disturb? Or another boyfriend? But then she wouldn't have come here with another guy and cook for him. Confusing. It's so much fun to guess what's the matter with what people do, and I hope I never stop being curious and creative - I hope I will not become someone who just does not care what happens around him.
Regarding the comment my dear sister left me on my post earlier: I think she is right on a lot, but not everything. Good to know that she reads my blog, somehow I feel honoured by that. For sure, being the first child entitles me for some roles, wanted or not, but I am damn sure that you will go your way, Sis, be it Yale (for which I would certainly hate you in a loving way) or anything else you desire. I am not as far ahead as you think, this few years will melt down fast. Enjoy your internship, although it is not as exciting as you would like it to be - for sure, you get to know a lot of people, you get your first idea of what people do in a job that is at least related to your interests, and you have two weeks off from school. Nice tradeoff, hm?
An hour ago I finished reading the Anonymous Lawyer. What a shame - this guy should publish hourly. I so got into the character that I actually couldn't get the image he creates of law firms out of my head when I discussed possible jobs and career-paths with Tine yesterday. I am so easy to influence - but mainly because the AL draws a picture that I vaguely already had, so he only strenghtened my opinion, and it always feels good when someone tells you something that makes your own thoughts seems reasonable, doesn't it?
We've been to a colleague's birthday party friday night (that is part of the warmed up fast food), which was pretty cool. In the beginning it was really stiff with the parents and relatives and all the guests sitting around in the living room, but with the help of a lot of guests and some booz we turned the living room into a damping mexican dancehall. I'm exaggerating, but not too much. Pics to come, but I'm afraid the machine will crash again when I try to download them now. Adding to the fact that the battery is dead and my notebook is just plain old by now, it also has an interesting and frightening looking crack in the case... scary. Maybe I can get a new one when I come home im March, my Dad gave me some "that might be in the budget" signs. It is awful to pull the money out of his pocket, but I just have no chance to earn my own right now - as long as I don't have THE idea for the self-selling super internet-business-whatever-exclusive-unimitable-product, for which I am hoping long time now, maybe it won't happen. But looking at Michael Dell (we had a case about DELL last week), chances still are. He started his business while studying, too :-)
When possible, I might go for a Apple PowerBook. They are nice, the operating system is great and it seems to have nicer workflows and less of these "I don't know why, this doesn't work, but a restart might help" Windows Problems, like Hansjörg has right now: His internet connection went nuts for no reason. He is on it now for two days. Waste of time, but what can he do? By the way, he now has a spanish XP and a swedish Office on his computer, as he had to reinstall his system some days after he came her. Weird mixture, the menus in Word read like the menu of the restaurant at IKEA.
