Month: May 2006

Man, I’m kinda proud of me 🙂 With class and exams, I said to me “I’ll start studying in June”. June begins on Thursday, ok, I won’t have time then, seeing we have an excursion with Geography until about 6pm, but I’ll start friday. Any I’m proud because I’ve typed everything from the three classes where I have exams, what I have written in class, into MS Word (I find it easier to study from a typed paper). Well, I’ve typed everything in law and technology and calculation, for the map-grid-projection there are so many drawings and so much math, that it’s impossible to convert that into “Word-language”. I’m also almost finished with my seminar paper in remote-sensing, making geometric corrections of Spot and Landsat scenes. Also my speech about Plasmadisplays is coming along quite well. I’m surprised of myself 😉 When you have to work with a new software, it’s hard at first. Same with Photoshop, I didn’t know crap when I started.. and look at me know, I can already open a file.. haha 😀

I put my Mini James into the Internet yesterday 🙁 It wasn’t easy for me, I must say. Allthough a car is only a luxury object, I still take it into my heart. The price is quite high, that’s because I put my whole savings into him (and now, seeing I have no savings anymore, I’m selling him.. great). Let’s see if people will call.

Class, photogrammetry, will start in an hour. I’m sitting here with my second cup of coffee which has way too much sugar, and enjoying my “free-time” where I can come online. Actually I should do things for class, but I’m quite lazy in the mornings 😉

New domain, new site, new neglecting.

I’m thinking of creating themes, allthough I swore I’d always stick to skinning. But themes just seem so much more time-saving.

It’s a holiday, Ascension Thursday, and the streets of Munich are empty. It’s wonderful, sitting on the bike, riding through Munich, not needing to worry that a car-driver will hit you here, that a pedestrian will run infront of your bike there. When I’m on my bike, I hate the motorist and the walkers, when I’m in my car, I hate the bikers, when I’m a pedestrian, I hate the motorists and the bikers. Kinda moronic.

I shall do things for classes this weekend. Preparing the speech about Plasmascreens, writing things down for law, technology, calculation and map-grid-projections.

I’m lucky to have a job like babysitting. Babies don’t have symptoms of the damaged world.. yet. It’s nice to know you can amuse them just with your presence. They stare at you for half an hour and you just wonder what for thoughts are running through their little brain. Her name is Isabelle, she’s five months old, a Sagittarius, big blue eyes and an adorable smile. When you spend time with a baby, all depressions you seem to suffer from this world, fly away. Wonderful!

Theoretically I’m in the sixth semester, but practically I’m in the fourth. I worked the last year and deferred a few exams, which is making me a fourth-semestler. Not only me, some other fellow students as well. Fourth semester, meaning, people I don’t know and people who don’t know me. Most of them are youngish, have started studying right after graduating from High school. It seems some of them never learned to talk, it’s odd, scary and sad. Makes me shake my head. There’s this one girl, VERY smart, she thinks, can’t say thank you when you hold her the door open. Never says a word to us, us sixth semestlers. And the wonder happened on wednesday, she said “good bye” to me, loud and clear. I was shocked and asked myself if I believe in wonders…

It’s raining. How should I go and pick flowers for my mom when it’s raining like this? I did see a nice bush though along my street with pretty yellow flowers growing from it. I have no idea if someone planted it (I guess) or if it’s just growing… I’ll go and cut some branches though 🙂

Oh god, I got Myspace now. Never thought I would, but times change 😉

Well, I’ll need to shower and get ready to drive out to my parents. You know, mother’s day means cooking for the mom, doing the dishes for the mom, not letting mom do a thing. Allthough I really think Mom’s day is way too overrated. Just like V-day and Father’s day. The flower shops here raise their prices a whole bunch. It’s just a random day – mother’s day is every day! I noticed in the States where there are like 100s of different cards and presents etc etc etc etc… crazy!

Is it lame to post something I received in an email?

Oh well…

Jake was dying. His wife sat at the bedside.
He looked up and said weakly: “I have something I must confess.”
“There’s no need to, ” his wife replied.
“No,” he insisted, “I want to die in peace.
I slept with your sister, your best friend, her best friend, and your mother!”
“I know,” she replied, ” now just rest and let the poison work.”

Ah, my humor

I put my dad’s car into the net today, hoping it’ll sell :).

Actually I have nothing interesting to post about. “The Da Vinci Code” is coming to the cinemas here on May 18th, I’ll ask my mom if she wants to go look at it with me – in English. I won’t understand a word I assume. Most of the time I only understand movies in English like “American Pie”, “10 things I …”, “She’s all that” – you know what movies I mean.

Well, take care!

The last few days I read a lot about making a site accessible to others, making a site work in all browsers, about big font sizes etc. Made me think. Made me think because I do care about things like that and I want my site as perfect as it can be when it comes to coding. I surfed W3.org a bit and came out with some quite interesting links.

» Quality Tips for Webmasters

I didn’t know quite a lot, like that a new window for a link shouldn’t be opened, it should load in the same window, about what you should use for a font “measurement” in your css and things like that.

So much to the WWW
