At Work

Yesterday was my first day at work. Kevin Shine, Jannik (another student) and me want to meet us at RSM Tenon at 9:30 so that we can drive together to work. But Kevin told me at RSM that the manager from NIBEC had postponed the meeting to 12:30. So I went home and came back later. At 11:30 I met Kevin and Jannik again and we went to the bus station. With the bus we have been travelling over the motorway to the University at Ulster at Jordanstown Campus within 11 minutes – by the way this is a distance of 10 kilometers.

At NIBEC we had a meeting with the director of the Engineering Research Institute Professor James McLaughlin BSc, DPhil., CPhys., FInstP., OBE (or short Jim). Unfortunately he was in a meeting so we waited about one hour. But then he told us about some projects with MiFi and medical monitoring sensors.

After this little introduction Kevin, Jannik and me drove with the taxi back to RSM Tenon. We are not sure what we can expect to this job, because Jim told us only some projects but not exactly our work. So I’m really excited what to expect.

My birthday in Belfast

Hi guys,

Tuesday was my birthday and it was very funny here in Belfast. On Monday evening,  we have purely celebrated in a pub. Unfortunately we were thrown out at 11 o’Clock pm. Of course have we then further celebrated at „home“ (in the apartment).

A very important tip for the other guys in Belfast: never drink Belfast Ale, it tastes very bad. 😉 (IMHO)

Martin drank it in the pub and I could try it.

Best regards from Belfast
Benjamin
