Back to Work

… on my thesis. My ex roomie sent me the proofreads yesterday so I get to edit the last chapter now. Yay! She’s the best! Looks like I might actually be able to hand the thesis in beginning of next week. Woot!

The weekend was nice. Went out to town with my friend Jenny and her co-worker on Friday night and we had cocktails – without alcohol since we always have to drive back to our villages – and then went to my town’s crappy little club where we had great laughs about the free freakshow there and danced. Fun fun!
Saturday Anni was in town so Jenny and I met her and her boyfriend for coffee. Took us hours to catch up on how things are going and on what old school mates are doing now. Love my girls! Now my town only needs a place like Starbucks…. 😉
Sunday I actually went to my Mom’s sportclub’s Katerfrühstück (hang-over breakfast) which is usually the end of a weekend long celebration of sportclubs, firebrigades, shooting clubs etc.. Of course I went for the free food but the old chaps were also kind of funny and made me dance with them so it was quite alright. Well someone had to drive my parents home anyways ;-).

I’m also in the process of auctioning some things off at ebay and my two last auctions went realllly well – so happy. Need to get rid of some more stuff but I’m always so lazy to put the stuff online and figure out the postage… Well, first priority is my evil diploma thesis anyways…

Smoochie!

Job Search

I just applied for at least 6 jobs online in about 1.5 hours. I’m so good. 😉 Hopefully one of them recruiters will like me and pass my resume on to other jobs, too. Man, I hate sending out applications…. Anyways, www.stellenmarkt.de seems to be a good website to find jobs that don’t require you to fill out forms over forms over forms so I shall keep looking there.
No news on any previous applications. F+ck patience is a virtue, I hate being patient! 😀

Well sweeties, I’m off to bed. Night night!

Final Countdown

Well, one more day until I leave Ireland! Precisely 27 hours if my plane takes of as scheduled. I’m busy packing and cleaning. Trying to eat all my food but with still 3 glasses of Indian and Thai curry sauces in my press (there’s another Irish word for ya, “press”=”cupboard”) it’s not gonna happen. I hope my roomies’ll like them ;-).
On Tuesday I actually cooked one of them for Daniela, a German girl I had met via xing and we’d been out to the pub once with her boyfriend who had to work late on Tuesday though. She brought along choclate pudding and wine and we had a lovely night eating chicken rhogan josh at my apartment.
One suitcase is packed, the other is half full. I’m still debating what to do with my carry-on. I had three pieces when I got here: laptop, purse, backpack. Aparently you can only bring one and strictly only one aboard now. They were giving me a pretty bad time in London when I had a connection there in April and made me stick my purse in my backpack (and there was no lappy with me then). Not sure how strickt they are in Copenhagen – I know I’d be fine in Dublin but not sure if I want to risk it. I might just only bring lappy and a purse along or maybe lappy and the backpack?! I have another Guinness glass, mug and a vase that I don’t want to possibly break in my suitcase but hmmm maybe if I just wrap them up really well?! Well, I still have 27 hours to decide ;-).
My last day at the office starts in 45 minutes. I don’t think we’ll do anything special. 5 or 6 of our 10 people are out of the office anyways. I got them 3 huge Milka chocolate bars at Fraport last week so hopefully they’ll appreciate that and we can have a chocolate feast. Muahaha! 😀

Oh PS: My Mom just called to tell me I’ve got mail – from my university – and I finally got signed up for my thesis. Took them about a month to make it happen. So now I have until August 31st and the ealiest I can hand it in is July 15th. Yay, finally, I can see the end.
