Trychydts in English

I left my camera at home again — now, with no borrowable cameras around, I had to take pictures with my cell phone. Today I was at Buda — I had a job interview very near to my first home. I wasn’t there since last year — it’s fortunate that I did not miss the opportunity then to eat hamburger than at my favorite place. The hamburger stand has been closed and an apothecary have been opened at the place of it and the little bar beside. The burger was an interesting mutation of the ones sold by McDonald’s; at the Golden Age (some 15 years ago, when I went to elementary school and occasionally was able to buy hamburger for lunch) they even sold hamburgers with canned fish.

When these small stalls were built in the tunnel, I occasionally bought doughnuts, buns, or crescent rolls with cheese instead of a hamburger. My parents never really liked this, especially Mum; however, I simply could not resist to the very first doughnut shop in Hungary.

On my way, I also met with this small statue — it is at the end of the street I first lived at; as a kid, I always found it very mysterious. It was surrounded by a hedge; since I was much shorter, I was just able to see it’s head and it’s upper body. Back then, he also had a fish in his right hand. I could see more of it only if my father lifted me; one of my secret wishes was to be able to climb across the hedge and feel it with my hands. Maybe I will even do it some day.

The job interview went fairly well; I was tried for the position of editor-in-chief at an on-line magazine starting now. I have never taken part in such a large project, so if I get the job, it surely will be a huge challenge. But I always enjoy creating something new, and this position would surely need every single skill I have obtained in the last eight years. So fingers crossed till next Monday.

I was walking to the bank (Mum and me started a brand-new enterprise last week and I had to open an account) when an other company called me, looking for a manager assistant. The job would be to help the American manager to open an office here, in Hungary. Once the office is rent and furnished, I would become it’s office manager.

It’s interesting, but since I am actively looking for a job, I always have at least two potential job opportunities. This is good, because it makes me feel that I eventually will get a decent job. I became so enthusiastic that I decided to cross the Erzsébet Bridge on foot — and I saw that crashed car in the outer track of the bridge. The owner of it obviously just called his buddies to the scene — they were making jokes about the incident and were making photos of the wreck. One of them suggested the owner to lie in front of it and act as dead to frighten his girlfriend with the photo later. It was relieving to see that they haven’t taken the situation too seriously.
