Sunny sunday


Yesterday evening we had a great party! Nicola has her birthday today and we also celebrated Phil's and Denis' birthday from last week.
There is a funny story for Seppel's guitar d-string: The d-string broke yesterday morning. And Härnösand does not have a music shop! But we would have needed a guitar for atmosphere in the evening! He asked a lot of people, but nobody could help. Just the last. He had no d-string, but is gave him his guitar! At 5 o'clock in the afternoon the guz brought his noble western guitar even to our hostel. All he wanted as assurance was Seppel's email-adress and his mobile phone number. Amazing! He will take his guitar back in a few days, nobody knows when. Sweden is great.
At half past 11 we started for the disco in Härnösand. We needed a lot of time to reach the disco, because we saw our first northern lights! They look light clouds, but the move! I could not see when they move, but they do, because the sky looks different every few seconds. But i could not see the changing. Magic.
At midnight we arrived the diso and sang our birthdaysongs for Nicola. Because the disco was closed we traveled around a bit, but there were everywhere drunken sweds. Now i know, why all pubs close at 2 o'clock. No swed can stand longer. They were all drunken! So many! Sweden is great... at day.
We went back to our hostel an celebrated until 4 o'clock in the morning.

Today, we all slept long, of course. I bought some things (i asked a worker of the supermarket for somethin in swedish!!!) and went swimming at the small beach (just 15 minutes walk) near Härnsösand (that's not the big one mentioned two days ago).

Tomorrow will be surströming-lunch... by the way, the pizza yesterday was great. It was to big for me (it even did not fit in to its box) and cost just 45 SEK.

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

Holidays

More and more students arrive at Nacksta. Now I know from 5 new students. There are likely more, but we do not know them, yet. Yesterday evening we made a short trip to the Irish Pub in Sundsvall for it was Ulrich last Wednesday in Sundsvall and for it was the first Wednesday for the new students. At the moment I have no daily routine. If am not out in this beautiful weather I try to work on my thesis. Somehow, I only find in the afternoon and in the evening the "flow". But tomorrow I will make a brake, because I go to holidays! Holidays? "What does HE wants with holidays?" you likely think. Well, it is a difference if you just have limited time and a bunch of amazing opportunities or if you just don't have to think about anything. Tomorrow, my train will leave at 12am from Sundsvall. On Sunday evening I will come back. In the meanwhile I will meet my family in Orsa and stay with them for 3 days. The picture is from my brother and his girlfriend yesterday eveni

Masked party and first time in Tornvillan

The last week was passing quickly. During the days I worked on my thesis. In the end it even made some fun. I am only rewriting it at the moment trying to get a link between all chapters and finish ideas that I had in early chapters but never mentioned later again. The evenings became a lot quieter than they have been only two weeks before. I already start thinking about what I pack into my luggage in a week and what I leave here. That is fun. However, imagine to leave this room in two days is sad somehow. During the week Peppo had the great idea for having a mask-party. Because our neighbours have small children we moved the party to the old party flat (former italian flat), since we never had any problems with the neighbours. Until now. Already after 11 the police aksed us to calm down, since the drunken old lady from 18b had complained about the noise. Strange. The party was really cool, but not as loud as the partys before, since nobody was singing. So, we moved already before midn
