Work work work work work!

On Wednesday the 11th of April in 2018 I started my day with Cornflakes and after my breakfast I gone to the work. I have to do a new layout for the website about „WordPress“ I searched for a good theme and found one. The first step for the new layout is to do the front page and this sould be a „one-single-page“. After my work I gone at home.On the way at home I met Dominik and Phi in the „Tesco Express“ and they told me they want eat to the dinner German pork steak with breading with potatos and „sauce hollandaise“.In German we call this „Schnitzel“. But the problem was I never cooked before „sauce hollandaise“ by myself. But at the end the sauce tasted good.

Boring start of the week

On monday and tuesday there was basically nothing to do at work so I learned for school and started planning a weekend where some friends from germany are coming, which is quite hard since most hotels in Belfast are very expensive. On both days after work i went to the gym first and then met with other interns at a pub for a snack and some beers and as the weather is quite nice already we spend the evening outside.

Pubs Pubs Pubs

As the Title implies I had a great second weekend at the pubs. After i finished work on friday I went to the gym before we met at the Laverys at 9 pm. We went there for some games of pool and later went to the Cuckoo for some good music. We met some girls from austria which we met first at the Quiz Night and had a funny evening. On saturday i spent quite much time in my room watching tv shows before i chilled with some of our flat mates. At the evening i went with some food and beer to Steven and Leons flat and we chilled there a few hours before we went to the Cuckoo again where we met Domenik and the rest who just came from the Escape Room and had some beers with them. We stazed at the Cuckoo the whole evening and played many rounds of air hockey. On sunday i had a huge hangover and just went outside to get some food and drinks, it was a great weekend.

Small steps for the new network design

Day 18&19 18 – 19.04.2018 Wednesday&Thursday

 

Today I drew some network components in visio, because my supervisor wants to have a visuell plan from the rack first before he wants to buy the stuff. This way we can figure out if there is enough space for all the equipment. Also it is a good opportunity for me to document everything first. Afterwards I finished the powershell script that Paul gave me. This script is used to run in the server to clean up and delete all files which were not used for a long time (for example 100 days). It also has a command to list all things first before deleting it. I think it was one of the hardest tasks I’ve ever had in powershell. „Small steps for the new network design“ weiterlesen

„The cinema has no boundary; it is a ribbon of dream.“

(quote from Orson Welles)

Monday 16th of April in 2018:

Like every day I start work at 9 a.m., my task for the following days is to collect pc issues. I got the chance to talk to nearly every member and get to know their names again. I think I can remember a lot of names now. It was easier at my first job because everyone had a name badge *grin*.
Jakob, Tim, Son and me had dinner outside. I wanted to have Fish and Chips‘ again because I enjoyed it much. I had at ‚Black Country Living Museum‘ in Dudley seven years ago. Sadly, today I didn’t bring enough money to buy one portion. Alternatively, I decided to have Texan Chips. This dish contains chips, Chilli con Carne and cheese.

Visit the cinema

Day by day I am getting more and more used to living here in Belfast, and my everyday life is getting more structured again. Since I discovered an offer at Tesco called „Meal Deal“, which includes a main course (for example, Sandwiches or Noodle salad), a drink and a dessert for £3. That’s why I usually go shopping before going to work. „Visit the cinema“ weiterlesen

Movie night at the Movie House

Today I had muesli for breakfast for the first time, because I wanted to change my eating habit from this week on and want to pay more attention to my body. Yesterday I started doing fitness exercises at home and overdid it a bit. My whole body still hurts after getting up. After I finished eating, I went straight to work. All I can say is a 30 minute walk plus pain all over the body is the perfect early morning combination. „Movie night at the Movie House“ weiterlesen

Movie night at movie house

Day 16&17 16-17.04.2018 Monday&Tuesday

 

Today my department manager arrived later at work because at Sunday there was a network incident. Some USP didn’t work right. So some services shut down because they don’t had enough power. He was very busy till 13:00 p.m. I used the time to do some research about the cisco asa firewall configuration with which he provided me. After 1 hour I realised that he will arrive a little bit later then I thought. So I asked one of the associates to call and ask him, if I could upgrade more cisco asa (firewalls), because it would better to do get more work done in advance. It would be beneficial to finish the firewalls as soon as possible, so that we could deploy them faster, in case we need them because of an incident or something. „Movie night at movie house“ weiterlesen
