Slut / Easter

The band, not the derogatory word for promiscuous people. They played a concert last Friday at the Abart in Zurich, and I thought it was great. It was really nice to re-discover them, since I had only listened to them during a brief period in '05 or so.

Apart from that I spent the weekend in a friend's cottage up on the mountain in the canton of Appenzell. In the spirit of the region we killed a bottle of Appenzeller and generally had a good time, including taking a bath out in the snow in an old bathtub with water heated up by a huge ass fire beneath the tub and getting an early start into the BBQ-ing season (outside. in the snow fall. in the dark. yes) .

Ken Lee

No comment.

Me? Stressed?

Never! Actually, that's almost true. I'm a very upbeat and laid back person normally. But this whole applying for jobs stuff is starting to really get to me - I'm nervous all the time and cringe when I notice I sent out something that had a stupid little mistake in it that will probably cost me the interview. In addition, every day the deadline for my thesis comes closer. I still have enough time to do it right, but I'm still starting to panic. I find feeling this way very disconcerting, I'm not used to this at all. Can't someone just give me a job so I can be done with it?

It would also be nice, if the problems (big 'uns) some of my loved ones are having, could magically be solved. Really, that would be quite nice.
