I finally sent out the resiliation letter for my studio. I will normally move in my new studio in Februray 28 2014 and return the keys of my current studio on March 04 2014. It is a shame that I cannot move in at the end of this year. I hope I will avoid all the problems I’ve encountered at my current building. I am sure it will not be perfect.
I am very tempted to buy the new Xbox One however after reading many reports it seems that it might not be that urgent to buy it now. If I wait a bit longer the price will decrease or they will throw in additional games and sell it as a package. I do not have a PS4 yet, it may be also worth buying something different and increase the possibilities amongst games.

I was busy last week with work. I also played a lot at WoW since the add-on OQUEUE has become popular. Many raids are now available inter-realms meaning I can play with all players in Europe. The possibility to play with many players has made it more interesting! I am no longer compiled to play with a small group of french people. I organized many raids last week. I almost lost 1 kg since I ate less and spent more time playing.

Sylvain and Sony (the mixed couple) invited me for a dinner on Sunday night. It was Sylvain’s 28 birthday and they wanted to try some of my Xbox games, especially the Kinect. I brought over some mussels with french fries as appetizers and a roasted piece of wild boar. Since they just live above me, I prepared everything and brought over the saucepans containing the preparation.
At least, I made the effort to socialize. We have different tastes for games so the Xbox did not win their approval and the Kinect itself is a bit glitchy when you have many people moving around in a small space. I enjoyed the dinner part where we could talk a bit. His brother came around 22: 00 and I took that opportunity to leave.

Here it comes! My first down payment, 704 Euros, has arrived and it surprised me a bit. It was 50 Euros more than expected because I started a month and half earlier. Anyways, I immediately asked the bank and received an explanation quickly. I will have to pay at the same time my rent and the mortgage for 3 months: October, November and December 2013. January and February will be paid for by the company that built my studio as late payment fees.

Bates Motel, S01EP01, was a bit creepy. In 30 min, you got a rape and a murder. I read the plot on the internet and it confirmed my feelings. I do not like these drama. I enjoy funny or sad movies with happy endings. I stopped watching “The Conjuring” even though it had really good rating.
A friend from school, Aurore, asked me how to download American TV shows on the internet and I did help her however I have the feeling it was useless. I am so used to Internet that sometimes I wonder how people can live without it. For many people, a computer screen is just a machine, to me, it is the window to many possibilities including social gaming and social activities. I am not talking about Facebook, which I do not use because I belong to the blog generation. I do not like Facebook because I am not in control of the web interface (for example ads).
Sylvain (the mixed couple dude) in the building asked me to print color photos of some leaks in his apartment and in exchange I had to eat some oysters. Good deal! In this building, they tend to feed me with food in exchange for help. I got ice cream from the blonde and Arabic sweets from my neighbor next door.

No shopping this week! Not for food at least! I am trying to finish all yogurts and other things. I waste a lot of food and I am trying to change my behavior. It is a bit hard for a single person to resist buying cheap food on sale.
Another 4 days weekend is coming! yea Yea yea!

“Red 2” was quite entertaining and funny.
“Man of Steel“: Another good adaptation. Not to miss!
“Star trek: into darkness“: Not to miss!
“Oblivion“: It kept me interested until the end. Good action and good acting. The story was a bit simplistic and there was a good twist (sad though).
“Turbo“: Good animation.
“The Croods“: Good one, I’d recommend.
“The hobbit: an unexpected journey“: A classic and a good one!
“Looper“: Good acting and nice plot but the logic is a bit stretched.
“Now is good“: A bit sad but not too bad. I tend to avoid these but I was in the mood.
