Some updates

I think I never got to write a blog about Helsinki ever since i moved here. The things have been so fast and crazy that I forgot about most of the stuff that i was supposed to do. First of which is completing my MS. now that the course work is almost over, I should be working on my Thesis, but after a week of sitting in front of eclipse, I can never find the strength to work on my thesis on weekends. Right now my supervisor asked about the update, but sadly I have not been able to do anything since I got here. I do not think that he will be pleased at the answer.

My job is going ok and finally I got a thing to make on my on for the first time. Havent been able to show much progress in that, but now I have done enough to understand the thing from in and out. I think I will start working on that from tomorrow and redesign what I had been doing in the past 3 days.

Summer is in full swing and the temperature is reaching 27 C over here, which is quite good with the cool breeze blowing over here all the time. The same breeze is awful during winters however, so better enjoy while it lasts.

Now I live in this place called Kontula which is really far away from Helsinki. First I have to walk daily for 15 minutes to the metro station. these days some renovation is going on so i have to change two trains before reaching my stop and then I have to walk to the office. Some 50 minutes are just spent travelling! I am glad that I bought PSP at the right time... keeps me good company. I am also thinking of moving from this place as it is too far away and i have nowhere to go over the weekend. let us see if I am able to find something good enough.

Tomorrow is my eye examination. I have started to see things blurry which are some 30 feet away.. even watching spiderman was hard on my eyes though. So I guess i will be getting glasses really soon. But here is the problem. a good pair of spectacles costs from 150 - 200 euros... DOH!

I think i should finish up one of my reports now, so talk to you later.
