Yesterdays movie: I served the King of England

Czech movie, starring also german actress Julia Jentsch, who I really like a lot.
Well the movie is okay, not one of the best but still worth to see.
Funny scenes with a serious story behind.

See the trailer:

People in libraries

Since a few months I'm writing my diploma thesis. So what happens besides writing a thesis, is you're spending a lot of time in libraries.
The thing is somehow you can't stay for a long time at the same library, because after some time you basically get sick of the people going to a library.
I decided to write down a couple of different types.

Type 1 - the not learning nervous one
Sitting not far enough away from you, literally pretty much too close to you, is the nervous one. Nervously bouncing his leg up and down all the time. And as you get more annoyed it seems to be louder and louder. Taking and looking at his mobile phone all 30 seconds to see I don't know what. Then all 10 minutes kind of jumping up, grabbing his mobile and going out. The he comes back, the bouncing starts again, additionally he starts to open and close his text markers in a row. Underline - close - put it on the table - open - underline - close - ...
Next part turning the pages as loud and hard as he can, you think he's going to kill the page soon.

So either you have a long break to calm down again or you go home ;)

To be continued. There are many more...

Sunday Evening Check-Up

Nearly ruined my toilet door today - arghl - no step forward to finish my flat...
Instead started to look through the thousands of sheets and maps that want to get into an order, guess I will continue that for another few years...

Watched two movies yesterday - I would say both category "good"

Whatever works

Check one

.Went swimming for an hour yesterday (point 4).

.Just watching a good movie (point 11).
Well I know that good is a very subjective thing here, for me it's a good one & and that's the only thing that counts here.


Tomorrow:
Library day 1 - starting to continue the work on my concept for the diploma thesis, should be in a perfect shape till the end of the month.

Fegefeuer (Purge) by Sofi Oksanen.

Just started...

New year - new life - new blog

Hello all future readers.

This will be a blog focused on the year 2011. The year of progress (I hope so).

For that reason I will start this blog to report the progress or in worst case the stagnancy.

11 things to do in 2011:

1) Write and finish my diploma thesis (finally).
2) Do my final exams.
3) Make a trip to the sea-side.
4) Find a sport I like and regularly do it.
5) Visit my friends in Hungary and Germany.
6) Have a healthy nutrition.
7) Make a course in self-defence.
8) Read more. 1 month - 1 book, or at least 10 books in 2011.
9) Finish my flat. Move everything where it belongs to. Get some plants...
10) Take more pictures again.
11) Do some cultural thing at least once a month. (Museums, theater, opera, watch a good movie,...)

So let's see what 2011 brings.
