A Seemingly Quiet Week!
Filed Under Daily | Leave a Comment
Someone died at Tesco, a supermarket, yesterday. They had to close the store for few hours. I learned about the news in Lidl, its competitor next door. The staff was talking about it. Not having class/seminar nor having a hike give me a lot of free time in the next month or so. Time to […]

Relaxed Weekend!
Filed Under Daily, Songs | Leave a Comment
I went to the pool for the first time on Saturday. It was very nice. Only me and another person in the lane for a whole hour or so! Looks like British people go out on Friday night and they would not go to the gym early Saturday. I will attend Saturday sessions more regularly […]

Angry at 4 am!
Filed Under Daily | Leave a Comment
One of my flatmates had the bad idea of having guest over and they went to have a very late snack at 4 am. I was very angry when I went out and asked them to go to their room. In the night, every little move people make are like a bang for me. It […]

Compliments Always Work!
Filed Under Daily | Leave a Comment
I am very quiet most of the time and I attract attention because of my unusual look and behaviors. After the hike on Saturday, I went to talk to the other photographer in the bus and I complimented him about his beautiful pictures and asked him about his filters and everything. He was delighted! Today, […]

My Last Hike
Filed Under Daily | Leave a Comment
It was a nice hike to end with, the last one of the year! The weather was bad and I made the mistake of using a polarizer which made the pictures even darker: Ambleside. I will try to go by myself now that I know most of the area. I already went to the remote […]

The best part of being sick!

It’s when it’s over. I had to struggle two nights, I was sweating like a pig but I knew that only the heat can speed up my recovery so I stayed in my clothes and under the bed cover even if it was uncomfortable. This morning, it was as if everything was gone. It’s not […]

I love this deal! I bought tons of good stuffs, razors, shampoo, conditioner, after shave, etc…Amy is leaving next week on Thursday. She is going back to Greece for a month and maybe a week more. I will miss her even though her phone conversations are a bit loud for my sensitive ears. I really […]

Frozen Pool!
Filed Under Daily | Leave a Comment
The swimming pool was cold the last two days. Maybe the heaters need to be repaired. It always happens in winter time in Australia. I do not complain but I think I got a cold. Let’s hope for a quick recovery. The thermal base layers I bought are very good and keep me warm even […]

My Day!
Filed Under Daily | Leave a Comment
I went to the pool and had a great and fast swim. Somehow the fastest lane was quickly available and I had the impression the dude who did that wanted to make sure, me and another fast swimmer would get into that lane right away! After the swim, I was dead tired and I went […]

Snow!
Filed Under Daily | Leave a Comment
After the fog, now comes the snow. I had the surprise to see lots of snow this morning at 6 am. It quickly turned into ice on the ground. It was quite slippery on my way back from the pool. There were lots of slow new swimmers at the beginning. Luckily, the staff opened quickly […]
