Winter in New Zealand

28 May

Yes, it’s official. The winter has began.

Don’t be fooled by this funny picture though. Winter in NZ means rain, rain, wind, rain .. oehm .. and some more wind. Oh, I forgot it’s cold. Like really cold. Did I mention the wind yet? or the rain?

Here is a little video for you that doesn’t justify at all how terrible depressing the NZ winter can get, but at least it gives you an impression.

11 Step Burger

20 May

Yeah, today was Carbs day. I needed some of the real stuff in my stomach. All that sissy food drives me nuts.

I didn’t want to go just to McDonalds, instead I made my own burger from base. Ok, the bread is not from base, but all the rest is. Fresh salad, cucumber, tomatoes and delicious burger-meat self prepared. Not that processed ready to go meat crap from the supermarket.

Oh yeah, that was one delicious Burger. Don’t want to step on the scale tomorrow though. But heck, you have to treat yourself once in a while.

iPad Review

19 May

After hours and hours of hardcore reviewing I can finally upload the review. It’s cut down from 2h to 17 minutes. So bare with me if there are some glitches in it.

One thing I want to say though. I don’t hate windows. I would love to see the hp slate come to life. But especially all the eee-pc lovers can shut up. The iPad gains its power from the app store. And by giving developers a very small range of devices the apps will always work great. That’s why microsoft will never be able to compete with apple. It’s the strict regime in their tech that makes them superior.

If microsoft can come up with some standards for their hardware and an app store they can crush apple. So far I see not even a beginning for each of that. But unless you are a developer and are aware of the problems surrounding the devices I am talking to a wall anyway. So enjoy your torture, meanwhile I will enjoy the iPad in all it’s glory. That doesn’t make me neither an apple fanboy, nor a microsoft hater. Just a person who enjoys tech.

Hmm, maybe a resume since that is missing in the video, hehe:
No flash, sucks, all the rest is just awesome. For me it’s a new device category apple came up with. I wouldn’t want to miss a single day with the iPad.

Blood Results

17 May

I finally hold my new blood results in hands. Surely you want to hear the story I have to tell.

So immigration was not happy with the results and I should get another test. No problem, off we go.

Unfortunately the blood chiefs didn’t want to take my blood unless I show up with a piece-of-shit paper in my hands.
On to the doc and asking for this paper, yeah you will get it later .. and later .. and later. Once the blood place was closed the doc called that my paper is ready. Yeah thanks for that.

Oh and it’s weekend, and on monday I need the results, good luck with that. Nicely I found a station that is open on a saturday so the plan was: Get up at 7:30, be the first at place, get in, get out. Sounds like a great plan. Who can be that stupid to get up at 7:30 on a saturday.

First Goal achieved

17 May

After doing thousands of vlogs, blog posts and reports .. oh wait .. yah well, can’t have it all.

I am sorry I am such a lazy bitch, but heck, I am going through hell with this shit ass diet, so be happy I find the strength to write these lines at all. Hehe.

Actually the diet ain’t even that bad, for example today I treat myself with spaghetti bolognese. And so far I havn’t even had to do sport.

Anyway, now here it comes. I forgot when the diet started, and we are pretty sure miles off the 40 day challenge, but heck, it’s about changing my life, not about 40 stupid days.

Goal number 1 is reached, I am down from 107.4kg to 99.6kg. Booyah.

Next goal is 95kg, inbetween goal is keeping the 100kg mark.

Since my body doesn’t seem to be that happy about the rapid weightloss as I am, I’ll see my doc tomorrow. Maybe one of the many experimental drugs is not so good after all, lol. Let’s see what he has to say.

Oh, and tomorrow I also should get the new blood results, let’s see what happened to the values. Stay tuned, tomorrow will be an interesting day.

Cheers mates, and thanks for all the support.
