<< Nyekk >> Morning
I'ts early morning, and I thought I should write up something while traveling to work. :)
I discovered something new (at least new for me ^o^): If you start your morning with a strech, it's easier to get up.
Ooops someone nearly ran into me. Shouldn't write while walking ^^;;;
In the morning everyone looks like zombies, trailing along their long engraved path, you shouldn't stand in their way! I think it's not a good practice to start the day as a living dead sleepwalker. There are many interesting things in the morning that you should be aware of!
First thing first, you could look at all the different people on the public transport, and guess what could they thinking, what is their occupation. Or just look at all the different dresses and faces. Girls show their true face while sleeping on the bus *wink*
(Almost forgot to change subway lines lol)
Second, smile for a smile. It's easy to get caught in the gloom that mass of people emmit morningtime. Don't! Instead, smile :) I know it's easier said than done, and some may look at you as if you were some freak, but hey, don't care about them! My favourite example is the
newspaper distributor girl I used to see this time of the day. She always looked so alive, and shouted 'Good morning!' at passerbys to offer them newspaper. And she did that with a big smile :) When I bought my drink this morning, I saw the cashier woman weren't in particularly good mood. I thought I should try this, and greeted her loudly, and smiled at her. And she smiled back :) I don't know if I made her mood better, or just for that few seconds, but it worth it anyways :P
And if all else fails, just listen to good music, and be lost in your thoughts (Daijyoukoen, hello Mizu *wawes*), or write a blog entry. :D
Remember: If you start your day with bad feelings, it will get to you and ruin your day.
Now I'm almost at my workplace, so I'm off to call half sleeping people on the phone. And yeah, I should try smiling through the phone. :D
Mata,
Nyekk
P.S.1: This post contains the word 'smile' in excessive numbers, read with care!
P.S.2: Maybe I should put the sentence above to the beginning of the post. Oh well ^^
P.S.3: My smile is freaky.

<< Nyekk >> Peugeot roadbike photos



And some about the shine restoration project. The chainwheels were shiny chrome in 1979, but were already full of rust in 2009. I read that if I sand it down with aluminium foil from the kitchen, it will be shiny again. And hell it looks like new after that!


またね!

<< Nyekk >> Work flows
It's been a while since I wrote here. I have found work to do, and kept myself busy with building my bike and watching dorama with Mizu, so I never had time to write here :)
Now I got free time, as I am working now. (Nice controversary huh? :D) So I thought I would lighten you up about what's going on with me lately.
About my job: I work 2 days a week, and in 8 hours, I phone people to query about they missing or incorrect data in my excel file. Nearly 180 lucky people a day :) It's not the most fun job, but it's calm, easy, and you can slack out if you want to, like writing your blog while you are on the phone ^^;;
But from July, I'm in for a different job. Its about IT support on the Budapest airport. I'm a little nervous about it now, but I hope I will fit in ;)
About my bike: I wanted to replace the rear derailleur on my bike with an internally geared hub, because I loved the idea of a simplified chainline, and the ability to change gears while not moving. I bought the hub, and builded a wheel with it, but it turned out that my bike had vertical dropout, so I couldn't adjust the chain tension with the normal chain. I would have needed special half link chain, and other extra parts to make it work with my dropout. So first, I decided that I'm better off buying a new frame. In the end, I bought a whole bike...it's an 1979 Peugeot roadbike with nice shiny chrome parts (they ARE shiny now, they were badly rusted when I got them, but aluminium foil and patience can do wonders :P)
So far I changed the rear wheel, front tire, brake pads, saddle, pedals, and put on a rear carrier. I will upload photos when I get home. I love this bike, nothing feels like the one you put together :P
I hope we will use them a lot, we will do small trainings on bicycle.
Now, it's time to phone another 60 deliquent,
Mata ne :P
