so, now you got it. I just managed to mess up an exam for first time. And another prof called because he has to talk with me. Life can be so great. Yeah!!

sorry, but I´m really mad right now. The bureau for my scholarship just called today to tell me I won´t get the money for last semester because a document was missing. Plus, I have to pay for the studentfees myself and I won´t get a compensation for my semester bus card which is f****$$$ expensive too. But what makes me really really angry is that just in November I got a notice saying that I successfully applied and will get my scholarship as usual. Cool, really cool. I work my ass just to get some money and then I loose approx. 25 000 HKD just because of that damn bitch who was responsible for my application. "Dear Miss Ebenberger, I´m so sorry, I tried to contact you. For now it´s too late but you can always apply for second semester". Yess Yess Yess, and meanwhile I´ll sleep under the bridge coz I´m missing out quite a lot of money.

But OK. I don´t mind having studied really hard and working overnight to keep my grades an A to get this scholarship instead of having much more fun with party. Noooo… Well thank you dear lady, thank you bureau for student scholarship and thank you Austrian bureaucracy who will send you your letter of advice always one week after the dealine expired. I´ll all invite you to my new home, then we can have tea together. I hope you don´t mind that it´s a little chilly there.

So, see you soon if i didn´t freeze or starve to death inbetween,

and thank you again, I wouldn´t have known anyways what to do with so much money.

It´s done now, I bought the tickets today to fly to Hong Kong again. Wanna leave right now, but unfortunately this wouldn´t be too good for my studies since I´m in the middle of examination period. So it´s gonna be in my semester break, from feb 8th to feb 28th. Three marvellous weeks with seafood, modest temperatures and lots of SPA stopovers (and other things that are fun).

Please please please mail me again your numbers, somehow I can´t find my HK sim card any more

So, I´m going to pack now. (Just kidding). Going to learn. And dream of sushi, sweet&sour fish and… damn, I´ll get fat in HK again….

Kowloon, Kowloon Hong Kong, I like Hong Kong, that´s the place to be…..

for that reason I´m coming cack. This time for real. Flight is reseverd, on Monday I´ll do the booking. I´m so happy to come back, even if it´s just for holidays. I miss all the people, the food and again the people.

So I´ll take a really good HK vacation. Best thing is, I won´t just go there for fun but can use my trip also for studies. I´m doing a project on tourism in Hong Kong. Analysing  how the process of McDonalidisation influences/shapes the management of HK tourism.

Hmm…. if you got any idea on what I can write for this topic please write me.  Tourism in general and the management thing.

Gotta go to bed now and dream of Hong Kong, see you soon!!!!

recently I had a very funny conversation with my friends about what it requires to be a gentleman. One of my friend than was outing himself: he went to a gentleman-seminar. wow. he knew all the facts… ok.. here we go….

for being a gentleman, man must have three particular features. One must be able to

a) ride

b) fence and

c) play the piano

in order to be a gentleman.

So, these rules I guess are a little bit outdated. Even though I´d like to meet a man capable of this, lets play fair.

Instead of riding a horse, let the present gentleman have a car. A really good one, we don´t fall in love with knights riding on a donkey.

Second, you guys don´t need to fence any more. Kung-fu, muay thai or just simple boxing is enough to show off and protect us.

Last, the piano, thaz a classy. Still I know many guys learn the guitar to lull off their adoreès.

So, car, judo and guitar for being a gentleman? Maybe, but just in theory. for real life women often don´t need a hero anymore, they´re themselves pretty tough. And I´d rather hop on your bike than sit in some super-expensive car with some super-boring gentleman. The guitar? Pop in a karaoke cd, you can sing playback. or sing yourself, thaz much sweeter (even when it sounds really terrible

Just open the door for us, write us  little stupid love notes amd surprise us with the wild flowers you picked in the very early morning. Show us you care, we love that. That makes you a real gentleman.

For joining my new "the modern gentleman" seminar contact me under julia_blablaöksdj@bla or just write me a comment if you got any bright idea on that.

Yesterday was New Year… here some things I remember:

*) I went to a party

*) I went to a really cool party

*) I went to a really cool illegal party

*) I went to a really cool illegal party in my university building

*) free drinks & free food

*) Oh what a night….

*) it´s winter here,

*) minus *** degrees… really reallly cold

*) and I lost my mobile

*) my camera

*) my sister

*) my keys

*) and ….

*) most badly

….. my jacket

All in all it quite fun, despite the fact that I had to walk around in snowy cold salzburg for more than an hour in search of a free cab….

I then found my sister the next morning, actually afternoon, even more hangovery than me. The whole day then we kept singing modern talking charts….. it´s so good nobody´s in hall right now….

With my sister also the keys came back… and fortunately one of them goes for the looker @ university… so with some luck there might be my camera, mobile & jacket in it… Gimme hope
