Took this shoot today, when going for a 2 hours walk along the cliffs at Brodauer Ufer (Baltic See). Toyed a bit with combining my binoculars (which I bought last September in San Sebastian) and my mobile, as you can see. worked not too bad imho :)
and now off to bed. hopefully next week will be a tad less stressful...

The pic speaks for itself, doesn't it? I still was kinda sober (or
musta been), since I took it at like almost 4 a.m...there are Miguel, a
fun guy from Murcia, and two guapas - Nida and Jessy. I can't say much
about Jessy, but the other two are great fun. and Nida is a crazy girl for sure ;)
after walking up at like 11, having too much food fer breakfast (my stomach was kind of revolting...), I prepared to collect my new baby. which you can see
here...

hmpf...what can I say... they call me MC, they exchanged my pic in the employees database with an animated gif from a dancing MC Hammer... we go for beers at least once a week...(and drink loads of Sambuca with Eddy in one of Hamburgs most "famous" bar Einstein)...the day after we enjoy greasy and unhealthy food...

sounds about right, or?



a former (and much valued) colleague from AOL Dublin wrote in an email: ...am delighted to hear you have a new job. Just looking online (at) Parship ... it looks like an online dating site ... have you made a career of your hobby and moved from project management to evaluating the ladies ? ;-)

well well well... those 3 weeks were great indeed...here you see Elio ( a cuban guy who I meet in Baracoa (Cuba) and who lives now in Spain (Villadona). it's his first time opening a kinder surprise egg...

of course we had a few rons (rum) and beers after too ;)

That seemed to be the last vacation for this year... reason being, that I started my new job at Parship.de on Oct. 01... so far it looks good, especially promising is, that the guys and gals in the office are great fun to work with and share information freely... less politics than at AOL for sure... vamos a ver :)

Hello there, long time no post...

well, quite a few things happened in between, but here just a short summary. after a lurvely visit in Dublin and a great time wid da lads I thought about getting a job in Spain. alas, I needed a english CV... hm, 4 weeks and 2 sessions with an native english were needed, and finally that was done...

in the meantime, the only application I really wrote, I got the invite for an interview... hm, not bad. well, short story, I got the job, hence no need for further apps, ey ;) new company is www.parship.com

during trying to finish my CV and letter of application, my mom had an accident and broke her shoulder, so I went down and spent a good bit of time with her, helping around the house and stuff. she's now much better off (and has a titan-like shoulder piece ).

right now I am enjoing the last days prior to my new job in San Sebastian/Donostia/Spain, while having spanish classes every day.

picture here shows a lamp post/farola, a pic I really like.

see yiz soon :-)

Mo and Tuesday with the trainer from Inplace Development (the outplacement company which AOL pays), preparing my CV, and simulating an interview. Fun, I learned a lot, but also very exhausting...

Tue I also bought a new suit. deffo needed one, last time I bought one was like 1997...

Wed, one day MS Project training. Good trainer, medium effort. Now I know "all" about resource sheets and more too ;)

Thu, Mike S., (a former colleague) dropped by for a chat and a round of tabletennis.

Fri, working a bit with Ted and Ted (Mark and Dan), and then off to the photographer, getting pics for the CV. great session, can only recommend them ( http://www.terzka.de/ ).

well, and Sat/Sun off to visit my mom, which is hospitalized at the moment...she broke her upper arm/shoulder (a comminuted fracture), and the only way to get her arm working back is a prosthesis... surgery is tomorrow...fingers crossed mom! after that she'll be something like the 6 million Dollar woman ;)
