Switching Messenger

I don’t know if anyone else has gone through this minor ordeal.  Switching your Windows Messenger account from one address to another.  Well, I did it, and let me tell you – it is a weekend project!  The result, not even a week after has been quite rewarding; I have moved from a list of 1077 people to a list of about 100, people I actually want to talk to and care about if they are online.  This is certainly a pitfall of social networking these days, that eventually you accumulate faddish friends, but – as I have proven – it isn’t the end of the world.

Some notes.  You can’t just move a selected list of people from one messenger to the other, you need to manually move the ones you want – you can only copy the whole list using Windows Live built in import/export.  Good luck to anyone who wants to try, and if you are one of those who didn’t get over to my new list, don’t fret, it’s hard to sort 1077 fishes. :)

 

Saturday Night

Well, it ended up being a good night after all.  Jonas unexpectedly showed up around ten, and was shortly followed by Joakim and then we went onwards to a party near Möllevångstorget.  Christian joined us there, but we lost Joakim on the way over.  It turned out to be a lot of fun, with some miscellaneous drinking games, dancing, good music.  The crowd was a mix of engineers and doctors.  Got home at around 2 in the morning and am currently posting this blog from bed.  Sleepy day.

Haircut Saturday

As mentioned in yesterdays post I was planning to get my haircut today, and I did.

Luckily my cut was a little nicer than the one in this photo.

The day has been a bit rainy and I am enjoying a little relaxation into the day before I will workout some more and then maybe visit with some friends.  Probably just get Joakim in on it, as I haven’t spoken to Simon or Christian yet today.

Friday, again

I realise that Friday comes once every week but today it is a little more exciting than usual; You see, I have been quite busy all week working on some pretty lean projects and this weekend is the first in a very long time where I will not have anything planned.  That is not to say that nothing is planned at all, Simon Nørgaard wants me to help him on his website and Christian Friberg wants to hang out, I have a haircut on Saturday and a laundry time on Sunday.  So a boring weekend? Unlikely.  But at least I don’t have the days planned from morning to night. :)  Enjoy your weekend too!

Awesome day!

 

Great Monday

Fun day at work with lots to do but very successful in accomplishing much.  Afterwards went to the doctor and got a clean bill of health.  Finally ended up at home and made a great salad with two kinds of lettuce, radishes, red peppers, red onion, cucumbers, broccoli, flax seed and tofu using a vinaigrette composed of a 5 star balsamic vinegar, raw cold processed olive oil (ie. unfiltered) dijon mustard, organic sea salt and tellicherry peppercorns (crushed).

What a great weekend

This weekend has turned out to be an amazing one, even though I didn’t go out much at all.   It started Friday after work when I met up with one of my friends, and ended last night with a different one.  Made some hummus, played some Wii and watched some movies.  Great fun!  I even got to see Joakim a little bit!  Now I just need to get some sleep so that I can be ready for week of work!

Ny minibærbar med mobilt bredbånd - PC World

I love these new mini computers, and they are everywhere.  My best friend and neighbour, Joakim, has ordered one and I will perhaps buy one later this year.  My problem is that I have a working mini laptop, but it’s just not this small yet!

Pub Crawl

Yesterday Joakim, Martin and I went to a pub crawl organized by the student house in Copenhagen.  It was a lot of fun and I was a good boy, leaving to go home early.  Unfortunately, it started to rain and by the time I finished walking back to my place I was soaking wet.  As a result, today I am ill – and forced to not only work from home but also to cancel on a much anticipated date for tonight.

Broken Laptop

Oh no! I tried to downgrade from Vista to XP on my work laptop and I got the worst thing ever… the screen of death!  So now my laptop is in for service and I am stuck either working from home or begging to borrow someone elses.

After work my friend Darren came over and we watched the latest Family guy and latest Simpsons.  Fun stuff. 

Let’s see if my laptop problem is solved tomorrow!

Guitar heroes

On Saturday, Joakim and I had the option to attend a major party in Malmö.  Big problem though, neither of us really wanted to go.  So instead we played Nintendo Wii, watched movies, ate potato chips and drank cider.  Before the end of the night both of us were Guitar Heroes and had pretended we were Brahma the creator and Shiva the destroyer.
