And so for the passed 2 weeks, i have not been stepping foot in the company at all. It served as some sort of mini break for me while my PM is on his annual trip to Mexico. I’ve gotta confess that i have not been on a very productive mode in these days. My sleeping hours got all screwed up. There were many nights of heading to bed when the rising sunlight is starting to squeeze through the horizon and penetrating through the tight pores of the very thin curtains of my room. And with this, i even had the experience of having the whole train all by myself for the 1st time ever..

Even so that my landlady said:

Jian, I am bored of your excuses of waking up so late everyday

Of course, we are on very good terms and I live very happily with her. Sometimes when u live with someone, there is just this feeling of: nahhhhh.. i don’t feel like going out and seeing anyone and rather contain my pee for a while more till it really reaches the peaky peak before giving in and go to the common areas and say hi.. not the case with Hanne, always a pleasure seeing her. Somehow, she feels like a really good aunty to me and i appreciate that..

Did meet some interesting people in these days (well don’t expect me to just be with my nice land lady throughout these 2 weeks, i do get a lil’ bit itchy butt sometimes). Did several trips to East side of Berlin and surely, a much cooler side of the city for anyone that really wants to feel the authenticated Berlin. Stuffs there are much cheaper and going out and getting drinks doesn’t burn the pocket that fast (note that “fast” is used instead of “much”).. It is always nice meeting new people, more so that there are also with the same mentality – Hang out, talk some shit, rewind and brain torture almost every new person by asking them to guess where i am from.

and now that I am not with any monthly card for the city transportation network, rides on the train comes with a couple of thoughts. Oh yea, i am back in my biking strides again, this time around, with a classico bike from my land lady. Old, strong and doing the job well. No pictures of her at the moment but surely they will come by.

I’ve stumbled upon by chance on a very awesome voice that i just need to share with you guys here. I’ve been hooked with the voice of Kina Grannis for almost an hour now and had the joy of being ear-lusted by her music throughout the composing of this post.

Here she is with her latest original release.

Browsing through her videos is pretty refreshing, considering that she took good effort in connecting with the viewers, sharing her humorous and personal touches in the clips. Very original, very inspiring, gave a good lift to my day.. Her voice and magnetic relating skill with viewers are just amazing.. and her cover of Taylor Swift’s Love Song is in my really humble opinion, better than the original version, with my goosebumps being my fundamental reasoning. If that did not convince u, listen to her covering Regina Spektor’s The Call, the ending theme song from The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian.. i am sure u will be convinced.
