Quiet day.. not that many people at the Studio, Bc it’s the holidays… and once again, without any CGs around, I’m not that busy at all…. but like.. not at all… But tonite I’m going to have a drink near the College neighborhood… Still some nice Xmas lite.. not sure the Students around are really caring about those but well…. :p
I had problem finding the bar I was supposed to meet an Erasmus friend into, but it was just bc there was an alley covering the entry 
It’s seems like the typical not expensive beer, loads of space, no fancy thing to broke if too crowded… but it’s not fullfilled at all tonite so…
It has been 18 months since we hadn’t met face to face with her, but it was really nice to see how the both of us went during that time
Dat was a noce nite, cool to see each other once again after so much time, a lot to talk about, really cool.. she’s now working at the European Parliament.. cool
The worst thing, and I still don’t have the habit, is that the bars are still smokers allowed in here… ewww… I just hate that…. so we moved quickly to another place cause it was really too smoky in here

Here we are… Xmas day…. So I’m leaving around 9ish.. and it seems I woke up just like in 28 Days later.. the streets are really empty… but sooo empty.. took me less than a 1/4 of the time I usually need to get out of Bruxelles honestly… wowwwwww….. hard time on the road though… struggling to stay focused and everything.. had to stop several times….
But at last I arrived in my Hometown to see my parents, grand mother and brother/sister-in-law/Nephew… The lil one having fun with his father and one of my old old plush… (which is “ugly” says Junior’s mom… )
He’s more than One now… he was only 2-3 weeks old last year… now he’s walking and everything… time has flown by… stupid to say but true 
Bought him a wooden bicycle, but without pedals… But he’s sill kinda short to be able to use it on his own.. soon enough he’ll drive it I’m not worried
The whole family got a NDS for my Mom… u know.. brain training etc… Nice to have parents that keep up with technology I’m telling u
And as usual, more and more pics from Junior… I just like making portraits, and he’s not old enough to complain.. but if everyone wants to let me portrayed him/her, it’s will be a pleasure
It’s really freeeeeeezing down here… that’s the thing when u leave downtown… first there’s not much of greeny things to froze… then because of the narrow streets, it’s not that cold actually….
Junior took the guitar while his father was putting it away.. he doesn’t really know why we were smiling but well.. he’ll figure out someday
Time to take some last pictures.. and hit the road.. only 5 hours for Xmas.. not much.. but working the day before and after is not really helping I confess
On the way back, the nite is falling really quickly.. but I was glad I was able to see the whole family even for only a few hours

Well.. this was probably the less productive day of the whole year for me… we’re not even a dozen at the studio today… and what am I supposed to do if I have no one to supervize honestly??
I won’t hit the road tonite to go to my hometown, frozen highway, nite & belgian road are not really a good idea… so staying in at the B-House alone for the xmas eve….
There passing a typical French classic comedy “Le pere noel est une ordure” on the main belgian channel…. I can almost tell all the lines of this movie… lol
And I’m justing waiting time following Santa on internet… he’s really super duper quick actually… 
And dat’s pretty much it for me for this Xmas eve, not much to say about my Xmas eve meal… not so “special” it seems…. tried to play some games.. was amazed and laughing seeing I wasn’t the only one playing tonite.. felt kinda heart warming u know…. lol

OK.. Is it because it’s going to be the longest (loneliest?) day of the year.. But it’s really freeeeezing this morning…. The good thing is that I left on time (who said ‘for once’, that’s mean… where’s supposed to be super extra nice to eache other in xmas time no?).. But I really needed to scratch my windshield…..
3 Kilometers later, in front of the Studio, it’s a so quick ‘journey’ that even the roof of the car hasn’t defrost an inch….
This was quite a quiet day.. but really quiet.. everyone seemed to already have the head in the xmas/ family time… everyone already saying nice things for the new year for those who’ll be on holidays for 2 weeks…
We’ll also notice the sooo cute xmas cactus santa from Leo at the Reception… And Yes, it’s a real cactus ^^
There’s a school in front of the Studio, they seem to have a xmas party… soooo funny…. with some kinda 80’s music going on.. I came out of the Studio at the same time than an other CG… we looked at each other and said…. “WTF…. OMG….” then laughing, cause we were wondering if they were allowed to bring booze inside a school.. .lol
I didn’t showed til know, but u know there’s a political problem in Belgium, problem between flamish and wallons etc… no or temp governement etc.. so they’ve created a special thing to say how much they wanna keep the Belgium united…

This is a really cold day… I am just dreaming of a Hot Starbucks in my hand right now… I’m okay with the cold… It oftenly means I’m not in much pain, which is really nice actually, I’m not really used to have even one day like that…. but it’s good ^^
Good day at the Studio, finally really working in what I’m the best at : producing and supervising the graphists.. ok.. I might have need to be angry at one today.. That.. I’m not very found of.. But it’s part of the job (and he deserved it so.. no hard feeling…). The Studio will be quiet empty next week, due to Xmas and NYE.. not sure we will be much there… *sighs*
Leaving on time, just the time to stop buy 2/3 things at the mall.. it’s just 2 streets near the B-House, which is cool ^^, and there’s even a parking, on the roof ^^ fun & Handy
One last problem when it’s freezing outside and u leave only 3 kilometers away from your work, is that the heater barely have the time to start on ur car in the morning for example… Of course it’s better than the hour way in that I had in Luxembourg, but nonetheless, not really happy about dat in the morning…

Arrived this morning at the studio.. time to check up the usual website.. then nomore internet..
Errr….
‘lo???
Wha should I do know? I’m not a graphist or something like that, I’m in production, Without Internet i’m pretty much useless u know mate…
Just the time to go to a meeting and it came back at that time… ouff
Also nice to say, at noon, went out to grab a sandwich (yeah, so far it’s a fascinating story for sure.. I know…), and realised I forgot my money, so I just said to the guy “well, sorry, going to get some cash”.. him “naaa c’mon.. u’ll pay tomorrow”… wow…. ok… well, I took the time to go to the ATM, but nonetheless, this is pretty impressive honestly… I kinda luv this country sometimes u know
At nite, I followed the crazy idea sent on Seesmic to have a common party starting at 8Pm Greenwich time (meaning 9pm in here), was mad enough to be doing it.. I could show the videos I took.. I could… but I won’t… :p (Seesmic powa only u know :p)
Still a nice day, the end of 2k7, strange has it doesn’t really bother me more than that… why?? I had a pretty much good year, I mean no big disease, no broken heart, 2 capitals, 2 movies… not sad to leave this year and start another.. sure I know what I miss about this year.. but it’s too late… lil more than 10 days left.. so it’s probably (hoping?) that it will be for next year…

Today, we made the xmas tree at the studio.. well.. “we”… I think Leo did… not sure though… but still nice, I just think that I see a lot of people making they’re tree like.. this week u know… and I’m not sure this will make the tree long enough in the House… that’s a shame… but I have a really nice xmas tree, so who really cares
Took the time to buy some soup.. because it’s now freakin’ cold… but like… really cold… I don’t mind cold… but not freezing cold all of a suddent u know…. grrrrrr…. But I wasn’t really sure what I bought right there… Think (hope?) this is supposed to mean 8 vegies soup…
Ok.. Now the question would be “How do u make a picture of a soup… but a sexy cool inspired picture….?”
..
..
Well.. U just can’t.. so here’s just a random cliché of what was, in the end, a 8 vegies soup
I also wanted to have french beans with it… but the first can I took… just couldn’t open it… who’s still making can’s like that nourdays honestly??? nicely enough, the 2nd one was ok ^^
Just to pretend I’m still in a Xmasy mood… really to pretend.. The heart is not that much Xmasy, lack of snow, the cold is here but that’s not what makes it xmas.. Miss Glüwein (hot wine, typical from the east where I live), and friends to see the XMas market…. *sighs*
But in the end, because of the wonderful power of modern technology, I had a nice chat with a friend via webcam (at least on my side), cool and it seems that my bandwith is good enough to be able to have a one way videocast, that’s good to know (but u install one on ur side whenever u want hon’ ;o )
And because sometimes an image is easier than thousand words, here’s a way to sum up the good nite I had, even if alone at the B-House
