Tripping along the road...

So here it is, the promised update. And it's all about current affairs...

First of all... I'm still with my family in Saxony / Germany, having a good time, relaxing and occasionally kicking an old bed to shreds. (Which is, in fact, the truth... I actually kicked the old bed of my grandma's into pieces yesterday - it proved to be the easiest way of taking it apart.)
Nevertheless all these oh-so-great things will come to an end tomorrow, as the actual holiday-part of this visit is going to commence in its 3 1/2 weeks of glory, together with all of its horrifying beauty and strain...

What's that? Huh? Tell you more about it?

I'd love to, but yeah, sorry... I'm still not 'allowed' to talk about it as freely as I'd prefer. But no worries, I will be taking my laptop along with me and should we come along a hotspot I will (at least theoretically) be able to get one or two updates on to the site during the next few weeks.
I will however give a bit more detail on the actual trip as we go along or at the latest once I'm back home in Bremen.

First stop tomorrow: Oberwiesenthal / Saxony. (For those curious: Go look it up... google is your friend)

That's all I guess... a short update before going into this semy-hiatus. Oh, oh no, wait a second... I got an interessting business proposal yesterday evening... nothing set into stone at the moment, but probably a great opportunity.
Addmittedly it kinda sucks when everything persistently remains to be as vague as this, but I'm sure something will change soon enough. I'm not the kind of person to get too stressed out about things like that (or about anything in general). But I guess that's a good thing in this part of the industry.

Now I'm sure I'm done with everything.
As always thanks for reading!

P.S.: I know they've been out for a few days now, but the new Celldweller songs are plain awesome! :o "I can't wait" rocks!
P.P.S.: Upping nu Kitteh

Seemingly unrelated songquote:
"Welcome to a world where the air I breath is mine. Nothing to overwhelm me and nothing to cloud my mind. Be anyone, do anything I'd ever want to try. Time does not exist here. I will never die!"

As time goes by

Sheesh... time flies by this year...
I intended on updating earlier, yet you should notice - I didn't manage before today. (And there's not too much to tell honestly...)

Currently I'm at my mom's house, 'chillaxing' with the family. I got some editing done over the last few days, which I think is pretty good, but still... I'll got caught up with another (new) time-waster. Dammit game-developers! *shackes fist*

So I'll keep this very very short for today:
My cat still loves me and hasn't tried to carve anything new into my skin until now. I've spent some quality time with my grandma - had some catching up to do after the last few months. We've visited the theatre on Friday where they've showed 'Everyman'. And Saturday was mainly getting together with a couple of friends, having a good time.
On the literary side of things, as I've mentioned before, I got some editing done and I also managed to talk buisiness for a bit on Saturday, though sadly we didn't have enough time for all that would have been important. (I won't be getting any further into this as of now, there aren't any major developements to talk about so I'll lie low with talking about this whole thing.)

And happy 4th of July for the American readers. Keep it safe and don't blow your limbs off... we all know how much you all love fire works...

That should be all for now, next update will most likely be Wednesday - yeah I'm rather sure on that.

Thanks for reading, have a great (holy-)day everyone.

P.S.: I should get going and upload a new kitteh, shouldn't I?
P.P.S.:Bleugh!


Currently addicted to: Terraria... darn it!

Summertime ... wooh

It shouldn't be a secret anymore... it's sunny and warm outside. (Stating the obvious like a pro...)
But summer isn't only about warmth or sunshine or ice cream or sun or whatnot but sometimes also about vacation!

I know; I know... not too much actual information included, but yeah... what did you expect? I got through my marketing seminar and the test connected to it last weekend and what should I say? Our lecturer was an awful lot of fun. Great person and also a good teacher. So at least one of the two days were fun. (Except for maybe the 2 hours of train ride for each getting there and back home again.)

Now concerning the nearest future: I'm going home to my family during the week, probably on Thursday - which includes another whooping 4 hours of train riding. This also means that "family-vacations" coming up for me - which in this particular case means something on the line of "roughly 3 to 4 weeks without" Internet and therefore no updates throughout most of July.
Of course it will be picking up again afterwards around the beginning of August, by then I will also start sharing my experiences from the trip. Should be either a lot, or nothing at all...

I got a bit of writing done over the last few days, yet unfortunately I haven't been able to copy it over to the computer. It's still lying around somewhere in my apartment in my dreadful handwriting. So I should be getting onto that...

For now I'll stop here and let you all run off into the more or less warm summer in your area.
As always, thanks for reading.

P.S.: uploaded the kitteh promissed last time just now, so next one coming up in a day or so
P.P.S.: also finished my nostalgica-flash this morning with getting through a Let's Play of Final Fantasy VIII ... uh I so loved that game when I was younger... I know a lot of people literally hate it, but I personally think it's the best part of the series. As always... personal opinion, so feel free to argue with me about it.
