Belated happy birthday! Great blog, I like it very much.

Just a short update this week.
Last week went well, but I got contacted to work on an urgent project, which has pretty much taken up all my time the last couple of days. I did finish the productivity guide, but unfortunately failed to record a new video so far. I have a couple of uni projects that need to be worked on in the next few days, which will again take most of my time.
I am going to Vienna for the diamond party + TT's party on Thursday until Sunday, so that should be somewhat of a recovery, at least from the projects and uni work.
I am most likely going to produce the video after I come from Vienna, unless I manage to do all the uni work unexpectedly fast.

Hey!
It's maybe a bit late to say "Happy birthday!", but better now then never. 
I don't have anything to say, just wishing you good luck (and subscribing to this thread) and hope to meet you in Vienna!
Thanks a lot opal, looking forward meeting you all mindfuckers @ TT's/diamond party :).
In other news, my blog is now upgraded to Real Life Crushers (TM by DeMarcohsp) ♦.

Vienna party recap
Thursday
I got to Vienna at around 16.30 or so. The flight (100€) was ok, only 50 minutes long so nothing special. I've managed to find the CAT to the city pretty fast and just barely caught it ♦. The CAT + 72 hour public transport ticket costed me 33€.
The tricky part was finding the hostel. Of course I forgot to write down the address of the hostel beforehand, I only knew that it was on Naschmarkt and what it was called. My navigation device decided not to work, so I was wandering around Naschmarkt until I've found some nice Bulgarian cab drivers who told me that I'm walking on the wrong side of the road :facepalm:. After moving to the right side, I've managed to find it pretty fast.
I stayed at Wombats hostel with 2 roommates, it was a pretty nice hostel. The bathroom was surprisingly nice, there was free wi-fi and relatively cheap internet PCs in the basement, and the breakfast buffet was ok as well. The room rates were 16€ for Thu and 20€ for Fri and Sat, so 56€ altogether.
I then decided to go shopping on the Maria-hilfe strasse, which was pretty fun. I managed to buy christmas presents for my GF and family, so the time was well spent. I also went to starbucks for the 1st time in my life and I tried hot chocolate, but I didn't like it all that much :(.
At around 8, we've met with some Estonians - kevvu (Kevin) and MP89EST (Marek) at 7stern brauhaus (brewery). We tried a couple of different beers and they were really nice, especially the chilli beer ♦.
We also tried some chicken wings and garlic bread which were IMO really below average, but at least the nut souffle dessert was good. Kevvu and Marek also bought some beers for their friends at this little beer vending machine.
Friday
On Friday, I went for some more shopping on the super-awesome-shopping street, tried out a coffee at Starbucks (this was quite good, considering I don't like coffee very much) and I also tried out Okiru running sushi, which is supposed to be one of the best running sushis in town. Here are some pictures:
I think the food was really good and way above an average running sushi. The selection of food was nice, and the taste was also very decent. The price was around 14€ for all you can eat, so that's reasonable. The only bad thing was that I've eaten breakfast just ~2 hours ago and I couldn't try out all the interesting food :(. So I will have to come back to this place next time ♦.
Then, we've met up with Kevin, Marek and Gavron23 (Nikolaj?) and went to see the Schönnbrun zoo. We managed to go and visit pretty much every single animal, so it took us like 4-5 hours ♦.
As you can see, we've also managed to see TT's family :). I also bought a bit, soft turtle for my GF there, which of course Marek had to rape (twice!). Poor turtle with it's big, innoicent eyes :(.
After the zoo, we went to see the Gloriette or whatever it's called for some more walking. The view was actually pretty nice, so it was well worth it :). Then, we stopped at Der mann bakery, bought some awesome sweets and moved on to my hostel.
Marek asked at the hostel for a cheap place to eat and he lead us to a shitty, relatively expensive restaurants full of smokers :rage:. So we decided to go to McDonald's instead and get some cheeseburgers.
In the evening, we visited TT at his place for some beer and Fifa action where I obviously sucked, but managed to win a match or two nevertheless. Fagner is a really good South Korean football player btw. You should bet on him online or something.
At the party, I got to meet TT, awishformore, Emanuel16C, awesomeo, Gerv, Arnolde89, Ash & Manciika and some other guys that I don't exactly remember the "names" of ♦. The day was pretty awesome overall, it was nice to see what my future penthouse will look like.
Saturday
Saturday was the shopping day. Since kevvu loves shopping like a true woman, we spent most of the day at the Donau Zentrum shopping mall. We met there with awishformore (Max), Kevin, Marek, Nikolaj and his friend. Especially the estonians bought shitloads of cloacks, and Max tried to pick up a hot Asian girl ♦.
While kevvu and Marek kept shopping, the rest of us went to another running sushi place. It was perhaps not as good as the first one I visited in Vienna, but it was pretty good quality/price ratio IMO. I think we paid like 13€ per person for all you can eat.
We've also had a sushi eating challenge (the one with the most plates wins), and I obviously won ♦. Of course they accused me of cheating because I really liked some chocolate balls, but I won with a big lead so it doesn't matter :).
After shopping, I've had a live coaching with Max on communication skills, I was really impressed at how much he knows about this stuff!
And in the evening, the long-expected dinner finally came at Martinjak. Katriin greeted us nicely at the party, and I also managed to finally meet HannesZ :). I actually thought he would look older ♦.
The food was pretty nice, the wine was a bit too dry for my taste. But the best thing about the dinner was the socializing challenge. Together with awesomeo (who btw really is awesome), we decided to get out of our comfort zones and practice socializing skills. Of course, we had to go extreme and decided to go and meet everyone at the dinner ♦.
This lead to meeting a lot of interesting people and it was totally worth it! There were actually quite a few Czezhs, Slovaks and Hungarians there and not as many Austrians/Germans as I would expect.
The pictures and the news item about the event can be found here.
Later on, we moved to Platzhirsch club which was under Martinjak. I was at the VIP part of the club where the party was awesome. Lots of drinks, lots of balla interesting people and lots of fun ♦. Even though the party lasted till ~6am, it was kind of too short. Could've partied on all day long ♦.
Sunday
Sunday = hangover time ♦. A pretty boring day. I had to check out of my hostel at 11am, so I barely managed to get any sleep. Of course I've also missed the breakfast, so I had to go buy some food... but of course, all the stores were closed ♦.
So I went to starbucks which was about the only thing that was open, got a mango-passion fruit smoothie (that was the closest thing to fruit I could find), then slowly moved to the airport, ate some more healthy food, bought some more presents, rested a bit on big leather chairs and flew home :).
Overall, the Vienna trip is an awesome experience. Will definitely come back to this awesome city, and I'll also join as many Diamond parties in the future as possible.
Also, I've finally got to experience the balla life just a little bit (still need to drive fast cars someday), and it added a lot to clearing the vision - what I really want. Of course it was also extremely motivating and inspiring.
Looking forward to meeting more awesome people ♦.

Hmm, so it was a Bulgarian that saved your ass on your first day in Vienna 
Thats nice.. But man you should quit drinking - there is so much wrong stuff in this post
First its 'Nikolay' but its not a big deal of course. Now comes the heavy stuff
"we did a competition and I obviously won' - yeah after the agressive asian chick took like 13 of my plates, and then you ate like 15 single bite sweets :DD
Totally rigged and waived off!!
Then there is the really really heavy stuff:
"Marek rapedmy turtle"
Well I think there are three of us who will say that you did some unthinkable deeds to the poor (animal) thing, and to blame marek is just a cheap way of getting away with it, but its not happening!!!
Really nice to meet you though, hope we can drink some 1,2..15 beers again some day....
P.S. You missed the most important thing - how your presence affected the 'productivity' of most animals in the zoo ♠_biggrin: ...

Thanks Gavron for defending my honour, just noticed the unspeakable SF lies 
Seriously SF, how did every animal that was near you start to act up? Especially the water hog(if its called like that, but you know which I mean).
Was fun seeing you all, till next time.
Marek
Baller pics, I very much concur with the goal-setting and hopefully can enjoy a similar lifestyle someday. I will be checking this blog from time to time for sure! Cheers.
Glad you had such a great experience. The pics indeed add some substance to our vision 
^^all lies up there ♦.
But yeah, apparrently my presence makes the animals want to reproduce. I suppose I am having a positive effect on the animal world then :).
@Spungeh: I hope you mean next diamond party, not next Vienna party :P. Birmingham 2013 baby!
Sidenote: Started learning German with Michel Thomas audiobooks, also ordered some motivational posters for the office :heart:.
Sidenote2: Ingrid's blog project has started :). I will also help her with productivity etc. so stay tuned in the future ;).
Sidenote3: My private coaching rates are increasing with 1st of December. You have 2 more days to book at the current rates, so stop procrastinating and take a step towards changing your life :).
