Sydney goes nuts ...

Hey all,

just a brief one - currently the world youth day (WYD) is being held in Sydney - well this also includes the Pope ... Sydney goes crazy and I chose to work from home most of this week ... reason: Here!

The city is sort of gridlocked anyway and they will even lock the Harbour Bridge on Saturday so that all the pilgrims can walk across. Wow. To many jesus people here ...

Day 5 with the iPhone and loving it!! Just need my Terminal app and I would be totally happy.

Cheers guys,

Mike

Birthday, Party & iPhone 3G

Hi all,

I suppose it's about time that I write again ;) been pretty lazy the last couple of weeks with writing. Anyway, some stuff happened (as always). I had actually turned a year older (again - damn). Thank to all people for the BD wishes. I had a good day down at the beach with breakfast, some good games and a lovely lil dinner in the evening with some friends at the hoe. All in all a nice and quiet birthday.

Works been going pretty good lately and I managed to step down a bit and try to just have a 40h week again - which was definitely needed ;) I suppose the situation at work could be better as currently a lot of people are resigning and leaving the company but oh well - times will change again and as long as some friends remain ...

Lately we also having a lot of farewell parties again in Manly a number of people are leaving again heading back to their home country or seeking some new experience somewhere else in the world - Manly is close to be path through city ;) Anyway, summer will be arriving soon and more and more new people will arrive with it ... you never know what coming next ;)

Oh yeah - I got myself an iPhone 3G - nice nice toy. I lined up for it in the middle of the night and I was lucky enough to actually get one. Since one day I am now constantly playing with it and it's just a brilliant device.

Heading of to another farewell party soon ... and I have to get my stuff read for the move next weekend :p (moving very close to the beach, like 250m away from the volley courts, 50m to the gym, ...)

Hope all is good - see ya soon,

Mikey
