It’s been 2 weeks … Its fine, I’m accommodating gradually with the new life style, cultures, work style, food and time zone. It’s going to be a b*tch coming back and doing this all over again :)

Last week I was convinced to have a long walk around the city to a Jazz Club. I’ve seen some parts of Rotterdam I didn’t know existed. It’s been fun … a 70 year old guy at the drums was the heart of the show. We “enjoyed” a 0,2 l beer at 2,5 EUR, and talked a lot.

I got a new roommate, which is quite cool as I’m not alone anymore, and have someone to share my thoughts. I think I’m beginning to enjoy his presence, mostly because he’s genuinely interested in everything you do. I believe he needs to clarify all aspects of what you’re doing and therefore puts a lot of questions. Having a technical background like myself, helps a lot ;).

Another thing we were up to is “Unreal Tournament”. He he he … one of the directors, which happens to be my flat mate, gathered all the needed software and people. We kicked a**. It’s been a while since I last had so much fun playing … imagine 6-7 grown-ups screaming like crazy, calling each other using nicknames in the AI Office: “Ha! Pathetic”, “I got the flag, I got the flag …”, “Killing spree!!!”, “Duck!!! Shoot, shoot … aaah darn!”, etc.

Won some, lost some, had loads of fun, will do it again soon :)

That’s it for now,
