Aurora Borealis
Filed Under Daily
I’d like to see one in the near future. I just saw a movie with that name, Aurora Borealis, and I liked it very much. It’s all smooth and a bit slow at time but I liked the character: easy going and very kind. Claire told me she cried after seeing “The Girl in the park“, it is indeed a very good movie but also very sad.
I found a good song from Aurora Borealis: From The Reindeer Section “Cartwheels”
I made my first bank transfer from Australia to my French Bank. It seemed that I spent a bit more than I thought. It always occur when I move to a new place anyway. So I spent about 6500 Euros the first 4 months here. 3000 Euros went to finding the aparment and renting it and the rest went to buying new clothes and food.
I also wrote to the school to inquire about the answer.

Is DA SHIT! It worked like a charm…!
I had to change my lenses, same corrections for myopia but astigmatism has increased on the left side. Funny thing! They offered me the normal lenses right away while waiting for the transition lenses to come.
I started to get impatient about the school’s answer. It’s only been a month and half but still. I will write an email to the school. I might be late for this semester :(. Anyway it would be better to know as soon as possible so I can act accordingly.
I watched tons of movies thanks to the blog I found. Some movies were really good but so sad. I doubt I will ever watch these again: "The girl in the park" is a drama about a woman who lost her daughter and "Ladies in lavender" is about two old ladies who saved a young polish boy and one of them felt in love with him. Penelope was excellent! and I found a nice Icelandic tune thanks to it: From Sigur Ros "Hoppippolla" I kept on listening to it since I found it.

Ali Baba’s Cave

I was busy this weekend watching very good movies thanks to a GREAT blog: RLSLOG, Fantastic site! (hint: read carefully the comments and follow the rabbit to see how deep the hole goes!) This site has combined every techniques known to spread files around in a very elegant way!
My favorite movies are: Wall-e, Meet Bill, Charlie Bartlett
One comment about Wall-e was “The People At PIXAR are geniuses…” And I have to agree with that. How can some people put together a story with like 3 words: Wall-e, Eva, beep-beep, etc… and add old songs from the 60’s or something and make one of the best movie I have ever seen of all time?
I loved Meet Bill because the guy’s mind looked a lot like mine! Besides, his way to escape his shitty life looked very similar to mine. Bill is me!
Charlie Bartlett was totally unexpected! Everything falls perfectly in place in this movie. I loved it too.

I used to love July the 1st. It is indeed the best day of the year in Australia for me since I get a lot of money back from the Australian government. This is the last time but I do enjoy it, even better than ever! So if I manage well, meaning I will not declare my ING interests, I will get around 1500 AUD back in few days. That’s the good event of the day! On another good side of the day, Claire’s sister is gone today and Rallez is going back to Sweden for a full week of vacation. The place will be very quiet for a week. 🙂
I pushed myself very hard this morning during the swim. That was fantastic! Lots of good swimmers next to my lane and in my lane also. Very nice! I had a small hang-over, too much Vodka yesterday. Usually it disgusts me from alcohol over a week.
I discovered that Clearasil works like a charm on my back. I tend to develop time to time a surge of zits when I am nervous or when it is hot. I have never thought of using it on the skin in my back: bye bye painful red zits!
I will have lasagna for dinner today.

The same person over the years. How strange to see myself changing this way! The first picture being taken just yesterday. I am glad I still have all this hair :)!

Asian food!
Filed Under Daily
I feel like eating some asian food today. I am getting tired of Indian’s leftover. Enough is enough! SG, my french bank, is improving a lot! I can now make direct transfer to Claire’s Bank account and the owner bank without any fee. Which is GREAT! Claire’s new guests are almost perfect, I have not seen any of them so far, they arrived late and moved quickly away in the morning and they leave no trace of their passage… they’d perfect if they didn’t come at all :). They rented a car today and will be away I think. They will sleep here on Saturday and that’s it. Her sister is staying but she will stay in Claire’s room.

Article from Le Monde: “Le miracle Irlandais est bien termine“. This article shows how “lucky” I was when I made my move to Ireland. I have come so far to make a deep change in my life that I cannot stop now and take any IT job position! I need something more promising in term of evolution and salary!
