Well time went by quickly and I woke up on Saturday morning with plans to really wander around Belfast and soak every impression in me I could get and it ended with my typical route around the city with stops at my favourite restaurants and bars. This time I was alone which was a different experience compared to wander around as a group of germans. I talked to a lot of people and I even met somebody from Italy who is living at the same town of my grandma which was an incredible coincidence. We talked about our experiences here and our future plans. As I am heading to my family after the internship I well meet him again back in Italy and who knows maybe we are even related… You never know!

When Germany played against Portugal we were invited by intern europe to join them watching it on their HD TV including their staff and some other students from Portugal. You can imagine that after the first couple of goals the atmosphere was kind of weird as every german in the room was full of joy and cheering but on the other hand there were some devastated folks aswell. Intern europe provided us with beer and chips which pushed the atmosphere even more in the right direction. After the match and in the break I hat some nice conversations with some of the opposite fraction who at the time of the break thought they still have a chance… Well we know how that ended!

In this week I mostly tested the work I have been providing for our next Build which is going to hit in the next week. By doing this I also found out how the development of patches is handled which was incredibly interesting to see. Everyone is working hard to get the last things done as most of the company is gone for holiday the upcoming week. I am very satisfied with my work and I am also receiving good feedback which is boosting my confidence a lot.

Hello everyone!

Yeah I had no better idea for the title than that but I think it sums it up perfectly. Yesterday Tim, Martin, Marco, Leo and I went to that pub 15 min away from our arpartments to watch the soccer game Germany versus Ghana. The pub was okay but I think it was a bit to crowded at first but the later it got the emptier it was and the game was nice to watch. It is something sad that it was just a draw because we needed to win to be sure in the next round. Now we can’t loose against USA in the next round or else we are out of the game.

Hello everyone!

I have to say that this weekend was my favorite weekend of all and that because of Q-Con. Q-Con is an gaming and Anime Convention with a lot of cosplayers like the ComicCon but with less comics and more mangas. It was a good experience because I met a lot of people which were all super nice and you can have a nice conversation with them. The funny thing is that this time when I went to a con that I talked more with the traders and the con staff than with cosplayers or other atendees like I normaly do.

Merch. Everytime I am visiting a convention or something similiar I have to buy loads of merch either is it pony stuff or something anime related, even if I can’t do anything with it atleast it is a nice present for my friends in berlin.

Hello everyone,

Tim, Eric, Leo, Nick, Marco and I watched the soccer game Germany against Ghana in a pub yesterday. We had to walk over 15 minutes but the pub was ok not the best but it was ok. There were a lot of people, I dont know if they were there because of the game but it was full in the pub.
In my opinion Germany had to win but they didnt so it was only a draw. Germany won against Portugal in a 4:0 but not against Ghana. I dont know why but maybe they win the next game against the USA so they can get to the next round.

I spended most of the Thursday to finish the last Papers that needed to be filled out for the Europass.
Samantha my Contactperson here at KNI helped me to fill it out as well as doing a „trainee skills assessment“ for Intern Europe. Later that day me and most of my co-worker met at the Odyssey to go bowling. After we finished bowling we went to the Northern Whig to eat and of course watch the football match Uruguay against England.

Hello everyone!

Normally Tim and I don’t have that much to do at work but this time and with this time I mean yesterday we had so much work to do it wasn’t funny anymore. We worked like ten hours through and that from the beginnig straight to the end. Also we had to change the builing like 4 times the day. From Lesley to Lanyon, from Lanyon to River house, from River House to Lanyon and from Lanyon to River House again and we had to walk everytime because the just fit 3 people in the car but we were actualy 4.

Hello everyone!

It looks like it is going to an end and I just simply can’t believe that we just have 9 days to go and I am looking more and more foward to get home and to have a big party with all of my friends and my family, I am also looking foward to german food. The first thing I will do after I landed in germany is that I go to the Döner stand next to my flat and order a Döner for bloody 10 euros. Also I want some cheap Ice Tea because I just couldn’t find any in any store.
