Deadshift Chronicles #5

Today is St John's day or better said night here in Barcelona. This means basically: beer, beach and bonfires... not to mention fireworks all over the city. It's a nice tradition that it is celebrated here in Barcelona, (although we could do without the over-drunk people in the streets).

I'm back here on the deadshift again. Not much to do but listen to music and try to keep awake. Brought some books to keep me company but don't feel like reading. At least, I have tomorrow off, which I plan to spend sleeping most of the day. And maybe do a bit of self learning.

Going to rewrite the first chapters of my book, to be more precise: edit, remove and add more things that have occurred to me over the past couple of days.

That reminds me that I have to set up my desktop. If I can make some room in my room. Cleaned it but things have been accumulating there again... and that is getting annoying. So not sure which one I want to do first... something to figure out when I wake up in the morning.

Back on the deadshift

Well, I'm back on the deadshift. After almost 4-5 months? Don't remember, but it's been awhile. Not that I missed it much, but it is nice to be able to sleep in your own bed and not have to crawl into bed when the sun is coming out.

The bad thing isn't that I'm on the deadshift, it's that I'm without transport. My scooter got messed up and after getting it fixed, there seems to be some connection problem between the engine and the petrol getting there. So that's in the garage to get fixed, so I'll have to take public transport, which I'm not a big fan of. Yes, you can argue that it's a more eco-friendly way of moving around, but I'm not a crowd person and not to mention that there are way too many retards walking around freely on this planet.

Anyvay, since I'm on the deadshift, I've thought of posting a new post and also put a cool photo of Barcelona in the night time. I could get one of the photos that I took last year, but they are on my home PC.

Well, I'm going to be a bit busy these days with some personal things that I want to get done before the end of the month, and not to mention still trying to get my driver's license (which for the moment seems to be determined to evade me... we'll see for how long). Also another thing that I'm trying to do is recollect all the information necessary and I've already started to move events forward so that I can open my hostel in the next 6 years... max. That's the amount of time I'm giving myself to actually open it. Hopefully it won't take that long for me to get things fixed to be able to open it. I still have the issue of where I'm going to get most of the funding but I'm not worried about that at this very moment, I'll deal with that when the time comes.

Something that I did realize the past week is that most of my plans have been put on pause because of the driver's license issue. And since that seems to be evading me a bit longer, I'm reactivating the other projects, like I said the planning for the hostel and also the novel that I'm writing. I'm still waiting to hear back from a friend, if she will edit the novel for me when I finish writing it and before I send off to a publisher. I've got more parts of the book thought out, and hopefully have them put in text during these deadshifts.

Well, since on this side of the world, everyone is sleeping... night night!
