Hello people,
Long time
no hear, as one would say in the Vietnamese jungle.
I basically
stopped writing due to not much happening and the content was becoming stale
and boring.
I would
like to say that not much has changed since I wrote last, but a few small
things have changed at least and I also have a couple of shorter trips to
Sweden planned for the summer and then winter, so who knows, there might be
some content over the next 6-7 months.
As I wrote
in one of my older posts, I really felt like I needed a change in regards to my
work and I am happy to share that I moved out from the night shift in customer
service and have since the beginning of the year been part of our Marketing
department.
It is a
whole new side of the company that I get to see and learn and I also feel that
it will bring me a wider knowledge of how to run and admin certain parts, as
well as being more creative of course, which is always a fun challenge.
So far it
has been going ok and not any painful conflicts when it comes to artistic
freedom haha, but I am sure that they will come sooner or later.
We
currently have a big part of the year a head of us since June/July will host
the Euro 2016 and hopefully a really good showing from our Swedish National
team, and a win against Ireland in game 1 would be the best possible thing, not
only for Sweden, but also since our COO is from Ireland.
I am
currently also sharing a flat with 2 Swedish friends that both were poker
players when they came down here, but the sickest runout ever happened and here
we are now, all 3 working full time within the gaming industry for 3 different
companies, and from what I hear it seem to be going better than expected for
them both.
Our current
contract on the flat that we are living in expire at the end of August if not
mistaken, so from September it is still not decided on how the living
arrangements will be, as it do take a bit of a toll on everyone to share place
with 2 others, and since we all work in different areas, it may be easier to
live closer to work as well.
We will see
what happens, but we get to that when it is time, and trying to talk with an
agent about a flat from September, when we are in end of May, is hopeless and
they will not even try and listen.
Apart from
all that I have gained 10-20 more kilos, which is to no surprise since I am not
moving around the slightest, but I do love to eat.
I will not
try and write something about me trying to work out or change my diet, as we
all know I have not got character enough to do any of these things, so for now
we are where we are and the summer is coming and I will be sweating like an
overweight Swede in Malta, yeah exactly like that.
There are
so many tv-show pilots being made now and it pisses me off how come some of
them even get made, as it is very, very clear that they will have no chance.
My next 2
posts (I think it will be a 2 part post) will be about upcoming pilots and my
own guess on which of these that will get picked up for full seasons and NOT
cancelled, or which I think will be cancelled.
Anyway,
there will be some sporadic posts here and there and I will share on facebook
and twitter whenever a new post is out, so if you feel like reading, you are
welcome.
I wish you
all the best and a great summer.
/Alexander
