My lonely and maybe last hike this year On friday night at around 2.00 am I decided to take a hike on saturday. I looked up a route and went to bed without making any try to fix a time. I slept very well and woke up at 10.00 am. I prepared all my stuff, dressed my clothes and hurried to catch the train. I had hurry that much that I had no time to buy a valid ticket. And of on these lucky days I got checked by a ticket inspector whilst I tried to buy my the ticket on my mobile phone. Unfortunately I hadn't been registred yet. Happy as I am I had a old valid ticket up to the station. She offered me to leave the train or pay a fine of 75 CHF. I decided to leave and by additional ticket for the rest of my train journey. As I arrived I started my hike and passed the city and got in to the wood. I followed the marked way and reached a village. Near the center of village I recieved a call by a friend of mine and he invited my to join him this night to watch a football match of our favorite football team. So I stopped my hike and went back home. I took a shower and got into my car to drive to his flat. Our favorite team won this import match after a horrible lose in the Chamions League with 2-1. We were very satisfied about this and opened another bottle of wine to celebrate.

Is life now better than it was 100 years ago? In my opinion the life changed dramatically in a positive way trough the last 100 years. So I think mostly everything turned into something better. One of the most important improvements is the wealth sector. Many new medicaments and surgery opportunities were developed. And helped human and animals all over world to survive after heavy injuries and epidemics. Another important point is the positive developed entertainment industry, which end up in huge film productions, which take years of filming, and animation technology, which unfortunately took the place of the painted comics. At least I like to point out that also the crime changed. The police is equipped with modern protection and weapons, better organised, structured and payed. Finally there were some bad developments too. So been seen like atomic bomb, thrown by the American government in 1945 on Hiroshima, the nuclear reactor in Tschernobyl blown up in 1986 by an accident and the criminals who doesn’t need to face their victims anymore to damage them, for instance with identity fraud. On balance I would agree that the world is now better than 100 years ago. Exception are considered.

Preparation has started today Today, I had my first lessons for my preparation course. Damien, our teacher, has got a special pronounciation and I realised that I quite not used to it. Don't judge about my spelling mistakes because I try to write this text under presure as I will be faced by the exam. Usually I will have about 10 minutes for this writing. Unfortunately I thought this is harder then is it seems to be. I try to improve my writing skills by reading english novels and write as much as I can. But often I don't know what I ought write about. The homework we got today wasn't that difficult as I thought it will be. In additional to the daily homework we get tasked to read a article in hand-outed magazine and make notes to give a summery of it to one of our classmates.

Habits Usually I wake up at 9.00 am if I wouldn't have set my alarm on. Every morning I take a shower, I don't like to take a shower in the evening because it will make me stay up for hours. I don't eat something in the morning. My first food usually is at the lunch or sometimes a apple in between times. But if I get hungry and I don't have any apples to grab, I take a chewing gum.

My day Today I had visited another english lesson in the morning. It was confusing because we were talking about conspiracy theories. There were two topics given in the student book, the death of Diana and the Apollo Moon Landing. We were splitted of into two groups. Obviously the men took the Moon Landing stuff and the women took Diana's death. After we cleared up the known facts we discussed it all and it ends a big argue of two students. Hopefully we woudn't do something like that again.

Every Sunday's challenge on the pitch I wasn't used to what happened on football pitchs every weekend. My worst experience as a referee was a youth player's father who didn't recornize what youth football is about. It schould be about fun, experience and respect of teens and youth. Instead that simple motto it's going to be a parents thought challenge that mostly ends up in a fight and the referee, who mostly referees a match because his love to the game, seems to be the bad guy who judges and punishs not fair at all. He is the subject of beeing faced of hate, inhumanity, venality and offences. Is this all I can expect from that sport I love so much? I say no! There is more then that. I saw teams which played hard to the lower limit of the rules but after a call they shake their hands and keep calm at all time. I saw teams which players shake the hand of the referee afterwards he made mistakes. I saw coaches who where cooling down the players, which were argueing with the referee's calls, at the halftime break and pointed out that referees are human after all and can't see everthing but try their best. Those poeple are the reason why I keep on beeing a referee on every season's weekend.
