Matthias Around the World

Hi there! It has been a while now, but I haven’t been able to motivate myself : )). After work, you just don’t want to sit at the computer again, and at the weekend I have been out. So what happend in the last 10 days?

The first two weeks of work passed by really quikly and it already has become kind of a daily routine. I get up at 7:45 eat something, pick up a coffe on the way to the bus staition, have a 40 min busride, start working on 9:30 (or depending on when my bus arrives : )) ), have a great lunch arround 1pm (ahh, I eat so much delicious food, the take me to turkisch, indian, greek etc. restraunts and its soo soo good, the best of the whole day), finsih arround 6, busride home and all starts over again the next day.

But I do enjoy this. I like the work, although it is in a slightly crazy environment (and its true when they write it on their own website). So there is a lot of space for beeing silly and haveing fun. Regarding the work I’m doing there, I’m also satisfied. I already was allowed to design a brochure for a retailer which is going to be printed 70.000 times. *yeayyy* I’m also redesigning the company’s website, modifying and designing an onlineshop based on Zen Cart, doing some flash and the best: I was anounced to the project manager/marketing of the agency. Which means that I’m responsible for the ongoing of the marketing related activities. This is quite cool, because I am able to bring in a lot of ideas, which may be realized.

Concerning my life here, I can say, that it is still cold. It might not be really cold, but I’m freezing all the time and due to that I’ve got a cold now : ((. The weekend is ahead of me, so I’m starting to browse the web for activities I can do in the next two days. Hopefully I find something cool. This is London here, there must be something : )).

Btw. there is a really funny TV-add arround here. Have a look:
