Hi!

How long you staying?
Are at all still there?
Hope so...

back for a short while
...but not for long as I have a seminar with the important sounding title "communication as a management tool" in a few minutes...but I am actually looking forward to it as it will be held in English..

*starts preparing some coffee* Want some?

oooo, yes please!

How was the seminar?

*pours some coffee*
The seminar was great. It was about public relations and stuff like that, meaning how to communicate mostly difficult issues to the public. We kind of solved all the major crisises that Siemens went through during the last years. Starting with major acquieries of other firms to how to justify business with Myanmar or what to do when one of our managers verbaly attacks other people with no reason... It was really interesting and in the end Siemens sponsored us a little farewell party...
What about you? How was your weekend?

It was, , en... Fired off 3500NKR just in drinking Wednesday evening and Thursday (17th of May is Norways Constitutional Day, and a national holiday + I had Friday off) Other than that, it was well, fine, except that yesterday I ran into a little boy on a bike...
Luckily, the speed was low, and I nearly managed to come to a full stop, so I didn't hit him as such, just kind of bumped into him. The poor kid was terrified, though, needless to say, so was I. His bike needs a bit of a fixing though, and naturally, he needs a new helmet. So I'll have to pay for that, which is allright, except I have no money!!
Sorry, I'll stop ranting now and just drink my coffee...

Poor you...did you knock him down with your car? Because I should maybe say lucky you...

Yeah, I did, and feel so terrible about the whole thing! His parents and his sister where all out with him on a Sunday-ride. Then, I come along, on split-second of paying attention to the wrong side, him (and his mother, I might add) rode straight into the street... Sure, there was a zebra crossing there, but by Norwegian law, if you're on a bike, you're not considered pedestrian anymore, and therefore, technically, I didn't have to stop for them (no excuse, it was my fault) So, there I was, the poor little fella crying in the arms of his mother, me totally lost for words, and his father started screaming at me like mad... I thought I was going to get my ass kicked for sure... I mean, I'm no dwarf, but this guy... He was huge! I guess about 2m tall and about 110-120kg...

There I go ranting again... Sorry!

well, I can imagine what you feel like . Still I think you were really lucky.
When I was about 5 or 6 I once knocked an elderely lady down with my bike...well actually I think it wasn´t really my fault, I came around the corner and she was a bit shocked and fell over her shoes as she was only wearing slippers. And she got so angry...

Yeah, guess I was!

Thanks, I needed that!

So what's going on with you? Apart from moving to Denmark and that.

Well, I got some tapes and to book to learn Danish...strange language I must admit...
And I will have to leave shortly to go to the lab and just heard that there will be an oral exam today...and I don´t have a clue about the whole stuff...
I have been to a great celebration yesterday. A friend of mine became a priest and the whole town had a really big party...
But apart from that I am just trying not to look out of the window, because the weather is just great and I have to sit inside ...

Tell me about it! Just the same here, blue sky, and I'm w*rking 'till half past six...

Good luck with the exam!

*looks around* Anybody here? *drops down on the sofa*

I'm here, just about to leave though..

*HUUUUUGE *

Please stop by during working hours..

Bye!

Hi and bye!

I will try my very best!

*decides to stay anyway...beeing sooooo tierd and exhausted...looks around for that blanket...finds it...and falls asleep on the sofa...*

*sees the blanket lying on the floor, Feff asleep on the couch*
ooo... so cute!
*retucks blanket*

*wakes up ... looks around*
Are you still here?
*looks around for some leftover ice-cream* It is so hot!!!

*walks in carrying a crate with the text "Assorted Icecream" on the side*

Oh, you're still here!

tell me about it... The past 4 days or so have been, errr, very hot...

*finds two spoons and an assortment of cool beverages, ie. , , lemonade, coke...*

Dig in!

Great!
Helps herself to ice-cold and some ice-cream!
Do you understand why one always has to write exams during the nicest days of the year, when everybody else goes swimming...
Tell me about "generally satisfied" that sounds good.

Sorry about that... Hootoo wouldn't let me do anything, and by the time it would, I was about to go home from w*rk...

It is good! The band is coming along nicely, I've met a girl which I think just might be my soulmate , and, well, life really is a good invention when the sun is shining...

That sounds rather nice!
Sorry, but I hardly get online at all at the moment as I am having exams. Right now I am desperately trying to print something for me and a few friends that we need for our next exam...but computers...
Apart from that things go very well.
Hope you can enjoy summer...see you soon
