And then the troubles started. They blocked my account. I did a quick phone call to know what happened. The guy from the support center said, there was a log in try from the United States. But that’s impossible, because I have never been to the USA. So, it was a hacking attack.
The first thing was to call my credit card center and to lock the card. Then I destroyed my card. Because I bought some stuff at ASDA online and I booked some flights with my credit card I have a little respect about this hacking attack.
Now my computer is working for the next few hours to find viruses and some stuff like that. The application has to check more than 500’000 files. That will take a little time. But what can I do during this time? I prefer not to go to the web, because of more attacks…
So, I’m writing this blog and upload it later.

But now to something completely different: tonight is Halloween. And we will go out. Alex, Scott and me like to go out to a Halloween-party. Let’s have some fun. I will take my camera with me, like this, we will have some nice pictures tomorrow.
So, have a nice evening and don’t get scared tonight.

Today I’m in a lecture about Business-Level Strategy. And there I had the idea to take picture of our lecture hall. So here it is:

And yes, there are more students, then on the picture. There should be around 200. But I think there are almost 120.
Perhaps I can write more after the next weekend. Conrad will go home to a family party. And I planmed to go out. Where I still don’t know.
So, that’s it for the moment.

Edit: there is a better picture of the lecture hall.

It’s set on wednesday at 01:15 p.m. and disturbs every week the lecture “Strategic Human Resource Management”. But today it is not wednesday and it did not happened at 01:15 p.m. Rather it is thursday and it happened around 11:50 a.m. during a “Managing Hospitality Enterprises”-lecture. So it was a regular one. But I am sure, it was a false alarm.
I took some pictures of it, but unfortunately they are not available any more. That is my fault… Shame on me!
That happens quite after. I was so enthusiastic to update my iPhone to the new iOS 5, that I forgot to save my files on the iMac. To be honest: I expected that all files will still be available on my mobile device after this update. But it seems not to be.
But, on the other hand, I am now a proud owner of iOS 5. And I am so happy with that. Some new features are not that interesting like I expected, but it’s even better than the old one. I just skyped my girlfriend to update her iPhone too. Because there are some features like iMessage or Apps like Find my Friends which are very cool. So I asked her to update hers too and to start communicating on the next level.

Conrad and I are looking forward to our first “big game”. But until then, we have to learn and train a lot. And on first place are our studies.

Of course. Nothing else.

The first question from my grandfather was: “now, after some weeks over there, tell me if they have good beer…” (free translated from german). Because he is a real german guy, who loves beer. So, I answered: “Of course they have… they have Kronenbourg, Heineken, Carlsberg… and we drink Becks…” (also free translated from german). It’s not because we only drink swiss or german beer, it’s more because the scottish beer doesn’t taste that good (in my opinion).

Today I went out to buy some stuff for this week. I liked to try the ALDI next door. And I found different things. Not to buy, but nice to post on my blog. For example this pack of a traditional scottish breakfast:

Just the next row I found something special… As a Apple-fan It really jumped in my eyes: mashed potatoes from M(a)cIntosh

But back home I decided to cook something different. It is one of my favorite meals, when I visit my grandparents. So, I got the receipt from my grandmother. She will be proud, if she hear (or read) about it.

in Edinburgh. Conrad stayed at home. I just vidited some pub’s and bar’s. When I came back I smelled something wonderful out of the kitchen. Conrad did some bread. It looked awesome. I really looking foreward to taste this nice bread tomorrow morning.

So, tomorrow we will have a great breakfast. With wonderful bread. I will write you how it was.

A new HiFi-System. Not an expensive one. Just a little one for about £ 80.00 or so. From Amazon. I thought if I go to amazon.co.uk I will get british stuff. But no. I got just stuff from germany. So I ordered it from germany. I found nothing as cheap as amazon. That’s why I ordered there. And now I have a new amplifier and I used my old speakers from our old home-cinema-system, which broke some months ago. Now I have a quite good sound i. My room. And of course the loudest HiFi-system in our flat.

Foggy, rainy and changeable.
And I uploaded some pictures to facebook and flickr. If you like, visit my flickr page to see my pictures.

Friday was Conrad’s birthday. Firstly we had a seminar for about two hours. After that we went to the sea for a BBQ. We were more or less all from SSTH.

It was a nice BBQ.

Lars bought some one-way-grill for £ 1.00, but the it is not the real BBQ-feeling. Magdalena brought a birthday cake for Conrad. So it was quite a good day at the beach, even if it was not warm enough to have a swim or something like that. And after all stuff had been loaded of sand.

After that we went home to the university, changed quickly and went to Edinburgh for some drinks and so.

We were there with David. It was a funny night. Until every pub was closed. Unfortunately.

But this day I had an other success. I got an unlock for my iPhone. Now I can use it with a UK-sim. For everybody who like to contact me by sms or phone: +44 (0) 74 2524 8307
