Job Application
Filed Under Daily | Leave a Comment
I answered to 4 job ads. For the 3Rd year, I applied to the EPO. This time I chose The Hague as the preferred location. I doubt they will take me. It looks too much like a relationship thing! Without any insider, I doubt anyone can get in unless they are really lucky. It costs […]

Always Tired on Monday!
Filed Under Daily | Leave a Comment
Working or not working, Monday has always been a bad day. It is due to the breakup of the routine on Saturday and Sunday. My body has to re-adjust quickly at the beginning of the week. It was delicate to shave this morning, the tender soft skin of my lips is healing from the herpes […]

My Room My Paradise!
Filed Under Daily | Leave a Comment
Today I shall stay the whole day in my room doing nothing but enjoying quality time with myself. Such a pleasure! I turned on the radio on my Winamp and enjoyed these old songs from the 80s and the 90s. I played several poker games and did not win nor loose. I might install Civ […]

Good Saturday

I woke up early for a Saturday, I had a good and relaxing sleep. I decided to go to the pool even though my shoulders needed rest but it turned out that there was some competition so I came back home. I did my laundry instead. I had the whole laundry room to myself at […]

Second Semester!
Filed Under Daily | Leave a Comment
The length seems shorter and classes seem smaller. I have now 4 modules of 15 credits each instead of 2 big ones of 30 credits like last semester. I met one new teacher and I have the same teacher from last semester. Looks like Thursday is my big day, I have 5 hours from 10 […]

That will be dead boring! Usually I have 4 hours of the same class on Thursday and on Friday. They added one extra hour today. This day promises to be long and painful. I guess I will survive since it is the first day of the second semester. I am happy I shall see all […]

Recovering!
Filed Under Daily | Leave a Comment
I am glad I have nothing on Wednesday. No swim because of the polo team! I had a long and uninterrupted sleep that allowed my body to recover from the weekend trip and the fast swim on Tuesday. Soooo nice! I am feeling so good now. Sadly for me, I’ve got several fever blisters on […]

Crazy Swim!

It was very crowded this morning at the pool. We had all of a sudden three new excellent swimmers from the squad. Once the fastest lane was open, I moved there with them. I managed to keep up therefore I was extremely tired in the end but I was proud of myself. I am very […]

Back to Normality!
Filed Under Daily, Hiking, Nikon D200 | Leave a Comment
After two really nice weekends, here I am! Back to my every day routine. The trip to Glencoe in Scotland was very nice. It allowed me to see Scotland for the first time and on our way, I had a glimpse of Glascow. It reminded me of my trips to the Niagara Falls with my […]

Hiking Weekend!
Filed Under Daily | Leave a Comment
I will leave tomorrow at 9 am for Glencoe. It takes about 5-6 hours to get there and then we will arrive to a bungalow Dave M reserved. He did a very good job in organizing this. He is too cautious but it’s good to have one person to care about everything in such a […]
