Well, I'm going to be doing a lot of work..and a lot of traveling among other things. Perhaps it would be a good idea to document all the things that I encounter in this log of sorts. Okay..call it a diary if you wish, I'm going to say it's a personal log because I can. And maybe there will be few ideas about different stories, at least when I get the time to.
So I should probably introduce myself, sure that'll help.
Name: Eduard Von Bock Age:21 Sex: Male Sexual Orientation: ...........-shrug- I guess the simplest way to put it is don't expect too much from me.
A few things to get started:
I really like computers, I mean quite a bit if it's not obvious from my profession of choice, programming. However I also really like video games..so I want to make some of those one day. I should get to working on a game engine or something. That would be pretty interesting. Nonetheless, I also really enjoy reading, writing the occasional story, playing piano and singing.(good luck catching me doing the last two.) Um.. I really want to travel some more so that'd be nice. So I guess this is a satisfactory intro at the very least. Will update at a later date.Hopefully there aren't too many disasters before then.

Greetings, spent some time in Paris a little while back. Lovely place really. Thankfully I looked up exactly where I wanted to go and how to get there in advance. I figured I wouldn't have too much help in finding places in the city without being too obvious about not being from around there. As if my presentation wasn't clear enough. Did attend a few shows, which was pretty fun. While not exactly the most relevant to my work maybe I could submit a few pictures I took as ideas for some friends back home.
On the work front, I've been mostly having a good thing going. But sometimes it keeps me so busy that I get significantly less sleep than I should. Not that isn't usual for me regardless of it's because of work or video games...Or in some cases both. Thank goodness for coffee. It definitely keeps this mind going when I can't crash until really early in the morning after a project is completed. One gets a rather satisfying feeling about having accomplished something. And the money is always a good thing. -heh-
Will update at a later date.

Amsterdam was also a really interesting place. Mostly went to relax and have some fun. And that I definitely did. Somehow got dragged into a stranger's birthday party at Club Ecstacy. But hey, meeting people is meeting people and went along with it just fine. Though I have to make sure how many of these folks I'm meeting I actually like. And not just while drinking. Though drinking folks are fun to have around sometimes as well. So now I at least have some familiarity with Sven, Antonio, Lars and Mat. I emphasize some familiarity as well.. drinking was occurring and I was a bit more loose than usual.
Speaking of loose, I need to work on that. This perpetual stiffness always makes things a little awkward when starting up conversations. Which is always rather inconvenient. So I resolved to be a bit more laid-back at social occasions. Not that I wouldn't be a quiet sort, that's just my introvert self but I can at least seem somewhat approachable rather than overly aloof. Even if I do tend to keep emotional distance. Though I really see no opportunities where that distance doesn't come in some sort of usefulness at the moment. So.. -shrug-
That's all on travels and such for now. Work is fine as usual. Finished a really good project and the benefits are always nice. It's good to be able to be flexible with your hours..

Well.. more about Paris.. looked at the major sights as well as some hidden ones to the general tourist. Also had the pleasure of having lunch with a nice Frenchman, Francis. So that was generally a nice trip overall.
But lately I've been thinking a lot, in between work and travel. I have fun, I try to loosen up. I attempt to be a little more socially open. I think it's going well so far. However, I can't seem to shake the feeling that I kind of would like something closer with someone. Who that someone is, and what that closer feeling is, I'm really not too certain whatsoever. But, it's something that has unfortunately piqued my interest. I add the unfortunately because i know it'll start to nag at me in the back of my mind a hell of a lot more than it should. Alas, that is just how my mind seems to work when it comes to these sorts of things.
In other news, the game engine seems to be coming along well enough. So that makes me happy in a small way. Oh goodness, I really shouldn't start on a tangent about whether I'm even remotely near happy even though I should considering the state of my life. Ah hell, I'm just not going to go into that. I know things would get pretty ugly fast. So I'll just conclude this update for now and will fill in with more thought at a later date.
