Red Flag

As you can imagine, sunday was not my most active day of the week. I almost got dark when I stood up. After breakfast with Phil and Stephan we went to Kårhuset in the evening and watched "Pirates of the Caribean 2". It is an unnecessary but funny movie, I think. But it ends right in the middle of the story. "To be continued..."
I found to funny pictures of myself.

The differnce between these pictures are 2 month. The left is from Karoline's birthday in september the other from the recent carneval party. My hair is now much longer and I look more crazy. How will I look in two more month?

Ulrich phoned today with our department from FH Aachen. We need to apply for a study brake in Germany for staying in Sweden. Everything is clear, but we need a letter from the department which is about "Yes, he is in Sweden". But nobody knows, how this letter has to look like, because nobody of our department seems to have ever applied for it. And the incredible answer of the department was: "It's unprovided". Unprovided?! Everbody on this damn university can apply for one, every student in Aachen can apply for it, but not students from our department. Just because it is "unusual"! Before I came to Sweden I applied for studying at University at Maastricht in the Netherlands. They have the best program with an extraordinary reputation. It would have been the perfect addition to my former studies. With the permission of my university I organized everything by my own and had a really good contact to Unimaas. I was intended to participate at the bachelors programm, full study (not only the required 10 ECTS from my home university) and got the chance to go on with the dutch master programme in knowledge engineering. And then my department just said "it's unusual to go to a not-partner-university". That was it. Damn bureaucracy. And now the same thing again. I hate it. If they don't allow me to stay here, the only thing left is to write my diploma thesis back there. But how can I be motivated to write a thesis at this department?
I will phone my professor tomorrow for help. Perhaps he can help us. But until now it sucks.

Fourth day at Härnösand

This was used to be our free day. Somehow the sunday passed by quicker than the days before. After the party at night i left already at 11 o'clock i walked to the universitiy for internet. But when i arrived, the internet was down. I have waited for 2 hours, but it didn't come back. So i had to walk 15 minutes back to the hostel without having done anything usefull. When i arrived i heard the internet was up again. Arg, why didn' stay in bed before?! After my second visit at the u niversity (internet was realy online), it was afternoon and Jana, Klara, Katerina, Denis and i decided to walk to the east coast of the island to see the open sea. On our way we met Phil who joined our trip. We walked about an our until we arrived at a small village "Gånsvik" at the east coast. We climbed on several rocks. The landscape was great. After four hours at all we were back at the hostel. Nothing more happend and i was realy tired from walking so went to bed early again.

Back to the places you will be from

The last day in Sweden went pretty well. After the morning I was finished with everything I had to fix. I brought back all my books to the library, picked up my copies of my diploma thesis, picked up the last stuff from my office, said good bye to Aron, changed my address at the Skatteverket, canceled my bank account and was back at Nacksta before 2pm. At 7pm I've been at Norrmalms and helped Marlies and Annemiek baking appelflappen . But I was rather useless than an effective support. Especially at half past 7 when my last Friends episode in Sweden started. The last for me. Since 8 I was sitting in the basement waiting for people. I do not know exactly when, but I think the first arrived at 9. And it was really nice. And I got the nicest present I could imagine. Well, I could not imagine it before! It is a memory game with pictures of all student from last semester. No picture is twice, so the game is about finding two different pictures of the same person. It even has a box title...
