Quite happy today - ok, i admit i shouldn't be after having spent another 2h in the phone to south africa trying to confirm 2 meetings tomorrow (in total each meeting has taken approx. 2 calls a day for the last 2 weeks plus a numerous of attempts with no one answering...), with the rain pouring down outside most of the day, working still at 21h at night organising last minute business, with lots of personal mail to write but never finding the time, and after a half-shitty weekend, but i still do :)))

The stressful day was still quite interesting, felt productive, life felt good, there was lots of chocolate from all over the world at work (even some from Sweden - thank you Kristin), talked to my hugely missed friend who's hiding in Azerbaijan and it was great to hear her voice, and got the news that a friend of mine that's coming to Geneva for a very short visit will actually stay a bit longer meaning that we can meet :)))))))))

Good part of Geneva - you meet cool people from all over the world, different people working in many different fields, students, people passing through, people here for many years, it's fun, it's cosmopolitan, there are always new faces around, you hardly ever get bored.

Bad part - your best friends tend to leave after a while, often several at approx. the same time, leaving you sad behind, missing them and wishing they would soon come back....

Good part - you have friend all over the world if you ever find the time and money to travel, and they sometimes come back to visit and it's like they never left in the first place! and with sms you can keep in touch for hardly any cost around the world (exception: ethiopia where one of my best friends has decided to live but where sms are forbidden).

Time to go home for some homemade bolognaese sauce (no, not a new interesting man in my life taking the time to cook for me, regretfully, but my own recepy done in the early morning Sunday after a 2h long fight between my neighbours prevented me from sleeping more than 4,5h.... but my sauce is really good, you should try it sometime, so quite happy about that actually ;)
