Hedgehogs

Hedgehog 1 Hedgehog 2

I've been cycling around nearby forests and met these two cute little creatures. One crossed the road in front of me, another was rustling in nearby bushes.

I think I like Bulgaria the most.

Soft Toy USB Flash Drive

Soft Toy USB Flash Drive

The case of my Kingston USB flash drive has recently fallen apart so I made a new one. Some electric tape on the board to insulate it, some super glue on top of it, a soft toy and few stitches.

I'm finally working at Mionex and I've been pretty busy for the last couple of weeks. Unfortunately I cannot tell anyone what am I doing there because I have signed non-disclosure agreement and I cannot disclose any information for the next four years. And no matter how drunk you'll make me I won't tell. Otherwise I would have to kill you and I don't wanna do that. :)

The only thing I can say is that it's something to do with machine vision and I like it a lot. It's nice to be finally part of a team, a balanced team as it seems to be. Not like at school when we have projects and I'm the one who's doing the majority of the tasks. And not like it used to be at the company I worked for before when they didn't trust me enough to delegate anything except software testing. Here everybody is developing own part of the product and I'm making a great contribution as well.

The only thing that bothers me is the wage I'm getting. It's less than I expected and asked for but it's better than nothing anyways. And there's a hope that it's going to be higher as the contract we signed is just for one month which is kind of evaluation period. And my boss expressed his interest in me working for him after graduation after he asked what are my plans for the future. So I guess he does want me to work for him.

Bread

This plastic bag is full of bread. This is the amount thrown away by a rather small local supermarket daily.


Here are the contents.

Bread

It is put into a special locked container. Huge amounts of meat, diary and other products are thrown away as well.

And somewhere in the world children are dying of starvation.
