Moving in

Thursday, March 1st, 2007

Finally I moved in. It was a hard day, especially because I was on nightshift and got only 3 hours of sleep. But, I don’t want to complain. I have my own bed now. That’s most important.

I can’t find Hugh

Sunday, February 25th, 2007

I went out for a walk, originally to see my new neighbourhood where I’ll be moving to on thursday.

Acton

Once I was there and saw a sign which pointed towards Notting Hill, I decided to keep on walking. So I walked down the beautifull Holland Park Avenu to Notting Hill Gate and a bit further. This city really has some beautifull places.

Unfortunately I couldn’t find Hugh. :-)

Soho XP

Saturday, February 24th, 2007

Since I forgot my phone at MPC I had to go to Soho anyway. Beeing there I decided to do a little sightseeing and I started walking around. My first target was Piccadilly Circus and hell was it crowded… I think the last time I saw that many people per square meter was on the Robby Williams concert ;-)

Piccadilly Circus 2

From there I walked to Leicester Square where I’ve allready been on thursday for a screening of recent MPC works. I walked back to Piccadilly Circus and further down Regent Street where I made a breake in the hughe Apple Store. I’ve never seen such a crowded Apple Store… That day I understood what Ronald Reng meant by writing “London is swinging”.

The London I

Sunday, February 18th, 2007

The semester is over, the exams are done. Thanks to Sylvia I moved to London to do my internship at one of London’s best postproduction companies. I’ll work at MPC as a render wrangler.

I arrived on saturday the 17th of February and went straight to London, Soho where MPC has its main facility. Sylvia was on the night shift, so I had to stay in Soho for a few hours till a taxi brought us home to her studio flat. While walking around the block I took a few pics as you can see.
