Halloween Horror Story - Chapter 2

Good evening children.

Halloween is just a night away so it's getting time for me to tell you another horror story for bringing you in the right mood.

This story is called

THE BANE OF "DAYLIGHT SAVING TIME"

It all began saturday evening. I went to town with some friends to have a drink or two. (ok, maybe I had more than just two drinks, but who cares)
I got home at 2AM unsuspecting that something strange will happen very soon. I was very tired so I felt asleep very soon.
As I opened my eyes at sunday morning my big analog clock on the wall in front of me told me that it was 11:00AM. I didn't really cared about it, but as I saw my cell-phone I was a bit confused. It told me that it was 10:00AM. A nother look at my analog clock on the wall approved my suspicion.

SOMETHING HAS MANIPULATED THE TIME-WARP-CONTINUUM!!!!!

Maybe I am trapped in a time-trap. Maybe I made a time travel during I was asleep!

WHAT HAPPANED TO ME!!!

I tried to find some more clocks to look what time they showed me. They all told me that it is an hour to early. I was nearly getting crazy.

So I asked my best friend - Google - for help.
What I found out was even more horrific. In 1907 someone called William Willett wrote an essay with the title "The Waste of Daylight". Because of this a lot of countries decided to create the so called "Daylight-saving-time". This means that time is different in summer than in winter. Two times a year (ones in spring and ones in fall) clocks are jumping an hour forward or backward.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! THEY ARE STEALING TIME FROM ME IN SPRING!
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! THEY ARE GIVING IT BACK TO ME JUST TWO DAYS BEFORE HALLOWEEN!

WHY?
The official reason is that because of the summer-time you don't need so much electricity because sun shines longer in the evening.
Isn't that stupid? In fact a study shows that we need even more electricity, because of the summer-time, because the heating cost in the morning in the colder month are much higher.

So what is the real reason?
Think about that and happy halloween to all of you!

Halloween Horror Story - Chapter 1

Good evening children.
Halloween is just a few days away, so I think it's getting time to tell you some scary stories to bring you in the right mood for this mystic night.

My first story is about the most evil thing in our food.

GLUTEN

If you don't know what that is, ask wikipedia ( -> Gluten )

A lot of food has a little sentence at the end of the ingridients list.

DOES NOT CONTAIN GLUTEN

So that means gluten are evil.

I think I have to explain this.
If it is worth to tell us that something doesn't contain gluten, it means that it wouldn't be good, if there were some. According to that and because the opposite of good is evil, gluten are evil. I think. *gg*

Now let me tell you about the scary thing that happened to me.
My sister brougth me a chees-corn snack. I was very happy about this. I really like chees.

But suddenly I recognized how evil they are!!!
There was a little warning on the backside, ( A very little warning!!!! ) telling me that there are gluten in it!!!

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! Gluten!
THE EVIL GLUTEN ARE GOING TO.....to.... to.................welll...........
..........give me a second...........

What are they going to do? During informing myself about gluten, I found out that there are gluten in a lot of food and if I don't have a genetical failure, they won't do anything.
So................


AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! GENETICAL FAILURE!!!!

...oh... sry................... I just wanted to panic again.

So I got nearly killed by a heartattack, because of a little warning on the backside of a chees-corn snack. I think that's really scary. *gg*

Now I have to say good night children. I wish you nice dreams and beware of the gluten-warnings!

suddenly i understand

My girlfriend - also a apprentice of informatics - ones told she wants to get a gardener. Now I understand. during debugging through a VB6 project - the code is extremely confusing - I found a a variable which was probably the worst line of code I've seen.

intÜberIndex = 1

For those of you who aren'tr allready screaming : There is a Ü in this name. You can't use a letter like this in your code! That's not right! But the really shocking thing is, that this programm is in use and works - WITH THIS Ü IN IT!

It's so crazy. I am really upset now.

I want a pony, daddy! - YOU GET A MUSTANG

Thx Sun! Even if the name MUSTANG isn't correct anymore, it makes me very happy to hear that Sun brings out JAVA 6 in the first week of December this year! This is my xmas present from sun. I am really looking forward to it, because I heard so many rumors about it and how many cool features it should include.

According to Sun the release was planned for October, but there are some bugs that have to be fixed, Sun tells us.
I am not sad about the release-date beeing moved, because I prefer a stabel and well tested version.
So thank you Sun for making me such a great present for x-mas. I think I will like this toy!

excursive the second

You might should enlarge this image by clicking it! - Just for understanding.

Why english again? I think it's better this way.

So it is friday. I like it. My plans for the weekend? Having some beer with some friends, going out a bit, playing on xbox live and sleeping a lot. So nothing concret. That's the way I am, excursive.

Go-Live

Da sich meine Freizeitbeschäftugung mitlerweile abgesehen vom AJAX und Python rumprobieren fast auschließlich auf XBOX-Live zocken beschränkt finde ich ihr sollt auch daran teilhaben. Deshalb gibt es jetzt sowohl auf meiner HP als auch hieri m Blog meine Gamercard, mit der ihr meinen Vortschritt verfolgen könnt. Sollte noch jemand von euch PGR3, Marble Blast ultra oder auch Burnout Revenge Live zocken, könnt ihr mir ja einfach mal eine Nachricht an meinen Gamertag schicken und dann mal sehn ob wir zu einem Spielchen kommen.

69 steps

Mo-Fr. nur noch 3 mal. ja da kommt freude auf. ich bines wirklich leid sie zu gehen. ja gut ich könnte mitdem lift fahren, aber sich bereits früh morgens mit 7 anderen in einen 6-personen lift zu zwängen ist nicht gerade meine vorstellung eines guten morgens.

vorfreude ist die schönste freude, oder? mir egal sie kann nicht so groß sein wie die freude die ich wohl diesen freitag um 13:30 verspüren werde wenn ich diese 69 stufen zum letzten mal nach unten wandern werde.


update für den fernen osten

hi michi. ich beginne mal so direkt. also unsere brücke ist fertig - naja fast es fehlen noch geländer aber sie ist befahrbar. die bauverhandlung ist mitte oktober. klingt komisch - ist aber so. ich weiß nicht wer sich dabei nichts gedacht hat, aber ich nehme an gemeinde sowie bauverantwortliche sind etwas nachlässig.

I don't care if your world is ending today...

...Because I wasn't invited to it anyway... ... I don't really care what gentlemen prefer...

Du hättest in mir deinen besten Freund haben können. Warst zu arrogant. War dir zu nieder.
Du hättest ein leichtes Leben haben können. Warst zu hochmütig. Zu weit weg um es zu sehen.

Nun hast du jemanden der nur noch 6 Tage hier verbringt und das Interesse an dir verlohren hat. Good Job!

Dies sind meine letzten Taten hier und ich werde nicht untätig Alles was du dir vorstellst über mich ergehen lassen. Meine letzte Aufgabe ist es dir zu zeigen wie cool du wirklich bist.

Alles andere ist Nebensache. Du hast meine volle Aufmerksamkeit. Enjoy!

massiv müde

Die spuren des gestrigen Tages zeigen sich heute deutlich in meinen Augen. Müde. Demotiviert. 2.033.941 Sekunde bis es endlich vorbei ist!
Zu lange.

so this is real?

941, 942, 943, langsam.
Hört mich jemand? nein? egal.
Frage mmich jede Minute wieder warum ich bin wo ich bin - tue was ich tue. Sinnfrei.

18 mal die Augen öffnen.

Viel zu lange. Vergeudete Zeit. Erinnert mich an Beschäftigungstherapie.
Kreativität schläft. Produktivität langweilt sich. Motivation weit unter dem Grundwasserspiegel.

Themenwechsel - schnell.

Die Ironie des Morgens.
Aufstehen - den Tag vergeuden - 12 Stunden später bemerken, dass der Tag zu Ende ist, wenn meine Freizeit beginnt. Juhuu - Die Ironie dieser Freude.

vz = 7,75 + 4,15; //Vergeudete Zeit - Norm + Fahrzeit
rz; //Restzeit
rt = 18 //RestTage

rz = (vz * rt) * 3600

rz = 777600 Sekunden.

Tick - Tack. zu Langsam.

Sprunghaft

...war ich wohl schon immer. Patriot? - naja soviel wie nötig! - Trotzdem jetzt Deutsch, auch wenn mir von studierten Journalisten nachgesagt wird meiner Muttersprache kaum mächtig zu sein!

Meine letzten Wochen in Villach haben begonnen, der letzte Freitag leider noch so fern, aber da ist Licht am Horizont.

Die Bauarbeiten in unserem Garten eingestellt bis es eine Einigung gibt. Ein schadenfrohes Grinsen darüber kann ich mir keineswegs verkneifen.

Mein Urlaub - vorbei!
Schockierender Weise könnte ich mir bedeutend schlimmeres vorstellen. Der erste Tag wieder im "Nest" - eine lustige umschreibung und keineswegs von mir - eher weniger erfüllen und auch keines Falls spannend, trotzdem kann sich mein Gemüht nicht beklagen, eigentlich bin ich... ...und das musss reichen!

the hole - impressions part2

Here are some more pictures of the building-site in front and at directly in the garden of my families house. Just click the images to enlarge them.


First of all, thats how it look befor they started digging a huge.









Then one day these things appared behind our house. These things alone aren't really a problem but in combination with the fact that we can't enter our gateway by car it is a real big problem. We have 5 cars (one for everyone with a driving license) and we can't use our gateway or the garages to park our cars. So the only place to do so is next to the street behind the house, but unfortunately there is this container and the other stuff from the building site.


During the building process our garden turned into a building site, not usabel for anything anymore and this situation last now for about 2 month.







From time to time they use our gateway as a place to put their building equipment. In fact our gateway shouldn't be used as a part of the building site, that's simply not right. We can't enter it or use it!






During this building process the caused a lot of damage in our gateway, because construction machines were driving through our gateway. I don't think that's the way such a project should work.
Here are some of the damaged things in our gateway and that's a place that shouldn't be influenced by the building process because it has nothing to do with that.

The building site changes everyday, but I think these pictures should show you what chaos it causes everyday.


At the end of this post I just want to say that I am really pissed of about the way this project is done. It is a real big part of living quality for us getting lost, because of no or really bad organisation.

one more morning

Tomorrow I have to stand up for work the last time before my holidays begin. 2 weeks of beeing free of allday manners. I think I need it. My last holiday wasn't just yesterday, I was so far in the past that I can't really remember what I did in this free time.
I think I should write down my plans for this holiday here, so that everybody know why I am not at home.

After work tomorrow I'll take my car and drive to my familie's holiday-house in the moutains for celebrating my moher's birthday.
At sunday I'll leave the holiday-house and get myself to my girlfriend - in fact that means driving from one mountain to another.
There I'll stay untill Tuesday, because on Tuesday me and my girlfriend are going to murau until Thursday. I don't exactly know if I will directly return home again or if I will stay a bit in our holiday-house again, we'll see.

So after that there is still a week in which nothing is planed. That's what I call holiday!

the hole - impressions part1

Here are some pictures of the street and the building-site which I called garden once upon a time. I do not blaim anyone for this. In fact I am very happy about getting a new and stable bridge, but the fact that this takes so long is really annoying.
Just click onto the pictures to enlarge them for getting a better view of what I see every in front of my house.

the hole - introduction

I think I am glad to have a room on the back-side of the house, because I don't want to see how this hole grows everyday.
It all started with an old and unsafe bridge in front of the house I am living in. Now there is hole that's probably 15 times as big as the old bridge was und about 5 times as deep as the tunnel underneath the old bridge. The garden next our gateway is now a building site and even our gateway itself is looking like this and is completly unsuable. I can't enter the gateway by car anymore because the whole street in front of it is missing.
I am pretty pissed of, because of this. To drive to work, shopping or anywhere else I have to use a dirty way through a forrest. This fact costs me about 3 minutes every morning and evening and to piss me on in the morning is really not nice.
I don't know how long it will take till there is a bridge again, and I don't know how much longer it will take till our garden and gateway is usable again. I really hate it. I will post some pictures of the hole in the next few days so you can follow the process of building a huge hole for a bridge that was so little.

future and its details

Yesterday, I heard something that made me thinking about it for hours. In fact I am still thinking about it. This little thing was something like this "...but now you might should know how your life should look like in a few years. You should have plans!"
I am sry, I don't. Of course there were some moments when I was thinking about what life should look like, but these thoughts were mostly about my carrier, not about family or things like this. Since yesterday I also think about things like that. I am no child anymore. It is getting time to make some serious plans about my personal life. At the moment I don't have answers to my question, but I made an interessting discovery. I am not able to make these decissions on my own. No, I don't need somebody to hold my hand. I just think, there is someone who has to make this decissions with me, because if life goes like I want it, than she will be a big part of my future and my future will be her future and vice versa. So I think I will risc it to talk to her about this. I think it's time to do so. To be prepared for that what tomorrow brings us.

messege from home.

I don't really know how late it is at your location right now, but I just got up one and a half hours ago. I am at work just had my first coffee.
I got your sms yesterday and I feel like I have to tell whats going on at home.
The big hole in front of my house gets bigger and bigger everyday - I will post some pictures of it soon. It is nearly impossible to find a place to park my car, because there is building equipment everywhere in my garden and on the street around the house.
You left austria on thoursday, right? So you missed two of the hottest days I can remember. I was nearly melting - you know I like constant 20°C, so 30°C and more the whole day long where too much for me.
My homepage is online again. Just sign up and tell me and the other user in the forum what life is like on the other side of the planet. Feel free to create a new topic for this.
I will reactivate my skype today, because calling each other the normal way could get a bit expensive.

So if you feel like missing home, just look in my blog to see whats going on at home or visit my homepage!

Seas, dude! Und viel spaß auf der anderen Seite der Welt.

heat wave PART 2

I think I've got my own sauna! The office I work in feels like this. Even in the morninghours at 8:00AM or 9:00AM it feels allready hot in there. Now it's half-past 2PM and I really feel like melting away. It is a south-east sided office with windows on each side. It's impossible to keep it cool.



Today the newspaper told me:
"Again temperatures up to more than 30°C"

...and tomorrow it might be even hotter.


I drank allready four bottles of water today, just keep myself from drying. Working like this is really hard, but I think I won't complain if I had holydays now. So let's work on and don't think about the weather.

heat wave

Today the news paper told me something that totally destroyed my hope for the weather to get cold again.

'Record summer like in 2003!' - 'Today's temperatures up to 37°C!'

When I left the house this morning at 7:35AM it was warm like on an nice sommer day at 12:00AM. 20°C.

My body doesn't seem to be able to cope with that very good. I feel like melting away since I stood up! That's a lot to hot for me. I hate it! A little bit of rain would be a very big help for me.

it's all about a dream.

I am not the one that believes that this world is fair or generous, but today this world showed me once again that having a dream and doing everything to make this dream come true is the way that leads to success.

I want to thank everyone who made it possible for me to lead such a life. My my loved sweety for accepting me like I am, my parents for everything they did in the last 19 years, my sisters for forming my character and my friends for beeing what they are.

I am, who I am - as someone called god said once upon a time - because I had the chance.

My live is perfect as it can be. I hope it stays like this.
