Only a few things/contracts/15 DAYS

Only a few things to get!

I now have almost everything I will take with me on my journey.
Now I start packing, in the next days I will put everything together and see how much space I need.
Following I will get to the city and see what backpack seems to be suitable.

Everything concerning the backpack and my luggage on Friday!

Translate a contract

This was my task for the last days. Translating contracts. I had to do this because the office for child allowance wanted a german contract and refused to read the English one. Just another proof of the German inadeqacy to show some sort of kindness and accommodation concerning bureaucratic stuff.

And now the next contract waits for me, this time I need to translate from German to English.
Some necessary information first: I completed the school not with the Abitur. I choosed to change to a commercial college. So I ended up with the Fachabitur. As some of you know, the Fachabitur has two parts. A theoretical part (completed with graduation) and a practial (24 weeks of internship). These 24 weeks I will be doing in Taiwan so I can study in Germany afterwards.

The school told me: Yes, we have a special trainee contract and we have a nice version in English for you and the company you will be in. - NICE! - So I got the original German contract and the English version. I just read them both to be sure to have the right translation. I noted there were some differences and after some Emails it turned out that they don't have a english version of the contract I need.
Now I have five pages of complicate conract language to translate.

Feels kinda bonus on my injured ankle!

 Thats it for today! 
Feel invited to leave a comment below with your opinion or/and any ideas what would be interesting to write about.

How I do my blog

Technical stuff Within the first six weeks I didn’t changed much. I used the Blogger editor on the Internet and wasn’t really thinking about what to write. I just let go. For my Photos I used my iPad mini. But I bought a new mobile phone here with a better camera, so I am using that now. Only for panorama pictures I use the iPad, because iOS offers the best option for that. I make a choice of the best photos and upload them to Google drive. From there I download the photos on my laptop to insert the pictures more easily. I never got into HTML deeply so I am not really able to use a really good template on my blog. But I changed to use an Editor on my laptop to insert tables and get the photos in a better way to display on the blog. The editor I use is Windows Live Writer. Maybe not the best tool, but it is okay for my needs. Now to the interesting part: How I choose my topic Choosing a topic to write about got more complicated for me within the last four weeks. In the beginn...

Blogging is about...

Sun Moon Lake Sunrise Hey and hello! I arrived in Germany about two months ago and had a lot of work and organisation to do. But by now I have enough spare time to share all the stories and pictures from the last three months. For me blogging is something like a diary. Moreover it is a way to share my thoughts and moments with you and anyone who wants to read them, I like the freedom of doing this and I really want to catch up writing again. I will try to give an update every week. A few photos and a relating story. Furthermore the stories will have certain labels, where you can find them. Additional there will be other labels for different locations. Example: "story, Asia" or "story, Germany". I hope you are looking forward to this project with the same thrill of anticipation as I do. See you next week! Lukas
