When I bought my new Iphone 6S, I misjudged the new earpods because of the way they look. I thought that they will hurt my ears for few days like all the old earpods I had before. I was dead wrong! These new earpods have the same shape of the ear and the sound is beautiful with perfect bass. I should have tried them right away and enjoyed them. Not too late though!

I received 50 Euros from my brother for my BD:
1. I bought two new art comic books I like (30 Euros)
2. I went to a vietnamese restaurant and I enjoyed the vietnamese soup, Pho, for 11 Euros.
I also received an old fashion Casio watch from my sister. I do not enjoy much watches though, they tend to remove all the hair around my wrist and that hurts!

Trying to upload my whole digital life onto Flickr, my life does look more colorful in a photo album. I find reality rather colorless and I was 40 years old yesterday!

bUllshit jObs!

I smiled when I read this article in “Le Monde” about meaningless jobs (“bullshit jobs”). I could almost paste every single “stupid” thing described in the article to my previous job: idiotic meetings, novlangue = fancy wording to describe Excel spreadsheets, new targets each year with new goals for just an administrative job that doesn’t create anything new :).
However, most people will never admit that they have a “bullshit job”, they will try to find comfort and justifications to their paychecks. I immediately knew and I always found the tasks meaningless and boring.
My future job is also described in the article: some kind of “social job” that would justify and motivate me to wake up every morning and enjoy what I do for the world.

Vuescan is a useful program that allows very fast and easy manipulations of my HP Office 8600 multi-functions printer/scanner. I just wanted to finish the scanning of the old photos. The printed photos are scanned at the highest resolution possible: 4200 dpi. Each file is about 150 Megabytes.
Flickr allows some nice photo manipulations with automatic zooming and it allows to check everyday detail on a single screen. I am gladly surprised with these improvements. Some photos are blurred however it has nothing to do with the scanning but with the original picture itself.

“The Revenant” was excellent but very crual and extremely bloody.
The flu is over but I need to get rid of the cough. I think it is due to my throat being sore and highly sensitive after few days of intense coughing.

It is very hard to know why someone bursts into illogical anger and hysterics against the neighbors. You need to let the anger run its course and somewhere at the end of this whole chaotic event, you catch the simple words that explain everything:
“…I lost my baby a month ago”.
The real pain and drama was hidden beneath. I had the chance to catch the truth and sadly I was the only one. For the other neighbors, the woman was just hysterical.

The flu allowed me to get rid of 2 kilograms and the natural fast cleaned up all my body since I could not eat anything besides liquids (milk, honey and water).
The “couscous dude” who doesn’t have a driving licence just drove an old car. He is the one who wants the french visa from his arranged wedding.

There wasn’t any good and juicy steak on sale today even though I felt like having a big juicy steak for dinner, I bought instead a nice tender piece of beef and soy bean sprouts and made a simple Vietnamese home dish that I enjoyed. There was a lot of coughing on the way to the market and on the way back due to the cold and polluted air. My nose and my throat are completely purged of any mucus at the moment and they are highly sensitive to any particle in the air. I also prepared a nice smoothie with plenty of extra vitamine C to boost my immune system (pinnapple, oranges, sirup mix)
