A Week After!

Filed Under Daily

I am happy I have another long weekend following last weekend to recover from the festivities. The first three days were a bit hectic even though I did manage.

It was a very beautiful wedding. The weather was at the “rendez-vous”, therefor, I could take nice pictures. I was deeply touched by my sister’s vows and her husband made me laugh with his mathematical metaphoric vows. Indeed, they were complementary. Her brother-in-law was also very good as the main host of the event. The happy, tired, and newlywed couple is on a trip around France for their honeymoon. They deserved it!

I should also mention that many pretty pictures were taken by my two little cousins. They have done a great job and I hope they will be around because I need them to take pictures of me. It is hard for a photographer to have pictures of himself most of the time.

I promised myself I would learn how to dance for the next event that may come. Whenever I have time, I will upload these pictures to a site where people can download them and select the ones they want.

Well the second set is more personal and it was getting darker so it was harder to get pretty photos,

I am getting in some sort of a routine and I do not know if I like this. I go to work, get home and play WoW. I do not go out much and do not check around even though I am surrounded by mountains. I haven’t found the courage to do so. Maybe I am really getting old now!

I bought a rowing machine today to force myself to practice intense sport. My real worry is that I get trapped in this routine. I intend to stay here at least 6 months or a year then I want to move back to Paris.

I need to motivate myself and stop being a lazy bumb!

Self-learning

Filed Under Daily

2 months and 2 weeks have passed! I am determined to learn everything about this new job and I want to be able to do everything myself when I leave this position. This is my very first tutorial with Adobe Illustrator. Even though I am a technical writer lots of my work require images’ manipulation using Adobe Illustrator or Photoshop.

I hope this is the beginning of a big step:

Back to the Hills

Filed Under Daily

I went for a hike this morning. Very steep hill all the way up! One needs training and a strong heart to sustain the hike at a decent speed. I also took some nice pictures on the way. Don’t be fooled by the nice view, the city is quite small and ugly. Everything looks pretty on a nice picture!

I also managed to do few little things during the weekend: checked for a costume, did my laundry and downloaded few useful programs. Calm and enjoyable weekend!

Who knows! I might have to post using my iphone someday!

Weeks and months passed by and I did not realise it.  My weekends are very precious and they always seem too  short. I’ve got my own new flat screen at work and it is quite pleasant, I am still waiting on the laptop that has been ordered 2 months ago. The weather is getting nicer now that summer is around the corner.

BD

Filed Under Daily

I am one year older and I don’t want to think about it. It was a great relaxing weekend…too short again! I bought a pair of running shoes for my BD. I shall use it of course. I don’t really want to buy a fancy expensive rowing machine because I really intend to move back to Paris as soon as I get the chance. 2 months have gone already and I need four more to make this working experience relevant. Also I want to store more cash in my bank account to be ready for the next step.

I almost finished my 4th healer in WoW. It has become much easier playing with people now that I have connections and experience. I get invitation to join 10-25 man raid quite easily. I guess the same thing applies to real life so I shall focus on working on that.

Great Weekend!

Very relaxing! I managed to do everything I wanted to do: laundry, cooking, discovering a running trail around, shopping a bit, writing some stuffs, watching few movies and of course playing WoW. I could even afford a nap on Saturday. It was like heaven on Earth. Once you get back to  a working schedule, weekends are priceless!

I am going back to Paris next weekend for Easter! Cannot wait!
