Where on earth did the time go? Today in a week university will start again, and with that my (hopefully) last year of studies. This is crazy! — As you can see, everything is back in place: My page loads fast again and the commenting system works. I kicked Enetation for it was not worth being used and installed HaloScan which seems to work in a different manner. We will see for how long. — It has been quite a while since I last updated what was going on in my life, so I will need to compress everything a little in order to put the most important things here. — There was “Kirmes” in Burgsolms, my home-village, and traditionally we drank lots of “Bosskopp GT” (Äppelwoi and Cola) all night and left the fareground at 4 in the morning. Not bad, you say, but last year we were the very last ones leaving the place. Amazingly, Alice behaved like she grew up in Hesse: She did not fail on her dose of Äppelwoi! — The month August is really the month of accomodations, housing, and moving. I visited Lena’s new place in Giessen Central, very cool, old building and terribly central to everything. René is also almost done with his appartment, and we picked-up a cool 80′-porn-style sofa from one of these give-away-everything gals. It is still unbelievable what one can do with colors and paint. Two months ago, his appartment looked like grandparent’s place and now the methamorphosis is almost complete. Thomas and Kai are still searching for an appartment, if I am up-to-date, after they were screwed by the last landlord they almost had a contract with. Alice is busy with accomodations for Dublin, too. Browsing hundreds of ads every day and getting only negative response is not really a truly motivating activity. Maybe someone reading this has a hot tip? — After almost two weeks at home I had to leave for my own four walls - I simply can’t manage to stay longer than 10 days at my paren’t place without missing my own style of living, including eating, cleaning, and sleeping. I stopped by in Krefeld for the weekend and we went to Düsseldorf (”warum ist es am Rhein so schön?”) to see “Warphotographer” and have some Altbier in the city center. — Back in Maastricht, I researched internships and found a very cool one, an exact match so to say. It’s at Porsche and concerned with e-Commerce and motorsports. People who know me, say it: Is this my kind of business? ;) I will send my application as soon as I have my papers ready. It’s a shame: There you are, having a digital camera, but too lazy to put on a shirt and tie in order to make a photo for your application letter… — Talking about digital cameras, I just found a firmware update for Canon S30. — For all of you having asked me about blogging and how I did it, and all the ones who will be asking in the future, I have created a tutorial and put my sourcecode online. Check it out in the FAQ-section. — So much for now, I have to phone Mathieu about a trip to Berlin and I am working at three. See (or read) you soon!
