Thanks again to Hans and everybody else for the nice couple of days!

Finn on the Run

This is a test shot i took this morning. I wanted to deliver a sense of speed by blurring the background and focusing on Finn.
I was very pleased with the result. Well, it’s just a glimpse at what the new DSLR is capable of.

on hiatus

Well well, another 3 month-long break. It’s mainly because I still haven’t made up my mind about what to write here. Not sure what my audience (is there anybody left?) wants to read. However, I might just continue my habit of posting whenever I feel like it. Pictures should become, or should I say remain, a central element of this blog. Nothing beats some eyecandy.

spending way too much time online

I just discovered the great Microblogging service Twitter. I heard of it before but didn’t get sucked into it right away. However, now I am. Give it a try and add me on my Twitter Page. It’s real fun that gets better every time a new friend joins the movement!

Another great site I found illustrates the differences of the German and the Chinese Culture. Great stuff!

I have to admit I should rather finish a paper I have to write for university!

a day in munich

September 4, 2007 1:46 pm

Yesterday, Carmen, I and another couple visited Munich for one day. We first watched my favorite soccer team Bayern München at their training pitch.

You can watch more pics of the training at my gallery.

After that and some shopping a the fan shop we drove into the city and a nice dinner at a brewery in downtown munich. The girls bought some clothes, ok, the boys too. ;) All in all a beautiful day with delicious food, great company and some real bargains.

last day of work

August 30, 2007 8:17 pm

Oh I’m so happy! Tomorrow will be the last day of work this semester break. I’ll have two weeks of leisure time and after that it’s another three weeks work placement at a local school before university begins again.

As you might have noticed another feature of this page is about to get launched. A gallery for photos will be available for all to watch and for some to participate at. Rob is currently running tests in the new environment and we’ll get it started as soon as I get his o.k..

only two and a half more weeks

August 14, 2007 9:15 pm

Now that I gradually come to enjoy work, I noticed that it’s only 2 1/2 more weeks until my six week term at RIBE is over. Of course I’m doing it for the money primarily but I recently realized that I had to make the best of it. So I take my iPod to work every day and listen to the latest podcasts and audiobooks, I never had the time to listen to before.

working life is a hard life

August 13, 2007 7:38 pm

I have to work at the local spring and screw factory these days and therefore have to get up at 6 every morning. That’s pretty tough for student I have to admit. ;) However, it seems like I’ll have more time and enthusiasm again to get this site of mine clicking on all cylinders again. Rob from Bitblaster.com is so kind to help me with the things I’ve planned.

Mmh, I’m just realizing that I can’t edit my text here using Safari 3.0. :’(

Test post from my mobile via blogmailr

This is just a test to post an entry via my new Blackberry. If this works, I may be able to write posts while am on the go! This would be great as I often have some thoughts, which might be worth writing, in mind while I’m outside. I hope this works!

hot summer days

10:18 am

How could it be any any other way? Temperatures are reaching record hights outside while I have to sit at my desk and prepare for this semester’s final exam. I’m glad it’ll be over tomorrow! But there are worse tasks ahead, 6 weeks of work at a factory here in Schwabach. However, wages are high and I desperately need the money!
