Today we met with our english teacher from our vocational school in germany. We decided to go into the oldest pub of belfast called „Laverys“ wich is family owned since 1918.

Raining, again…
Today I woke up a bit late because it’s weekend and of course IT students are known to be sleepyheads. When I took a quick look outside it seemed that it would be a nice day. I ate a healthy breakfast with my host family and afterwards I looked out again and the sky was covered in dark clouds and it was already raining.
Arthur’s Seat
My first day in Edinbourgh was very nice. I slept until 9:30 in the morning. When I set myself upright on the bed got to know my new roommate. His name was Shawn and he is from Los Angeles. We began to have a nice and long conversation: He told me of his background to visit Scotland. He finished his time of school last year. By the end of march he went on his way to discover Western Europe. Starting his tour in Berlin he continued through Amsterdam, Paris, Switzerland, Venice, Bologna, Rome and Madrid. From there he also arrived in Edinburgh yesterday. And for tomorrow he planned to continue to London and end his trip on Friday. It felt funny for us to be the only who were occupying our room for six.
As we were both there on our own we decided to discover the city together. „Arthur’s Seat“ weiterlesen

The End of the Second Week at Intersys IT
My Friday started a bit stressful because my train was stuck in congestion and so I missed connecting train in Waterloo but luckily the next train came just 5 minutes later but that train takes a bit longer to get to Twickenham where I work. „The End of the Second Week at Intersys IT“ weiterlesen
A whole lot of work
The last two days came and went pretty fast.
I spent almost the whole day yesterday, on cleaning laptops and installing clean windows images onto them.
Well, today i spent all day wiping loose harddrives and those inside of the laptops, using tools like ‚dban‘ or ‚Disk Wiper‘.
I was asked to stay late today, so i could help repatching the VoIP phone system and putting the required switches into their server racks.
This was supposed to take about an hour, but turned out to take almost three.
Although taking so much longer than planned, it was fun and my coworker is quite nice to work with and talk to.
What a busy day
Yesterday was quite a busy day at work. We had a lot of customers come and go and some workers from a security-company in the shop. But let’s start from the beginning. „What a busy day“ weiterlesen
Happy Birthday!
Today at work I started with installing my program on their virtual machine. After some testing I finished and figured out, that all was working great. After this I had to do a presentation about my project, they were quite satisfied with my work. The next thing was that I got an introduction about my next project. About this I have to create some word documents, which must get filled by the parents of the students and then I have to create a program which will read and check out the data and if everything is valid, if not an email will be sent with a notification and similar stuff.
