Time to say good bye

This was the hardest day of the whole course. I would have liked to eat one year surströmming instead of seeing the course ending.

But the day started with an "Top of the pops" på svenska, where we voted for our most beloved swedish songs. But first Hans song "Weine nicht kleine Eva" from the german "Flippers", because we told him a week before "Sommaren är kort" would sound like a Flippers-Song.
For lunch we got some real good swedish food, far better than surströmming. And after the lunch, the highlight of the program started: our suprise for Ella, Hans and Björn. First the song "Zehn nackte Friseusen" was teached and song in EILC-style, followed by a funny sock-thearter. Second, an usual day at the course was adapted. Third, Seb covered Chuck Berry's "Dingeling" gratly to "Learning"! After that, Martin and Nicola had a grate sketch with teaching Ella, Hans and Björn the Muppet song "Mana-Mana". The following german, tjeck, italian and portuguese tonguetwister were also funny. But the last performance was a spoken "Good bye"-letter for Ella, Hans and Björn. It was a realy hard thing to stand it. At least erveryone got a huge hug and than it was over. Three weeks EILC are gone. Over. Never ever again. Aldrig nånsin en gång till.

I already saw the rooms for the students of Härnösand. They are nice, and the architecture of the building is new to me again. All in all, the swedish inner architecture is very open and nice. I hope, i will like my accomodation in Sundsvall, too. But it will be much more expensive than the rooms in Härnösand. The rooms cost each ~160 €, my room in Sundsvall will be up to 270 €.

At the end of the day, we had a big party at the hostel. I did not see the end of the party, but i heard, that our silent-shy teacher-assistant Björn had some "scary" performances.

That was the EILC 2006; the TILLSAMMANS - group.

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...

If I just lay here, would you...?

After skiweek Philipp arrived in Sundsvall for defending his master thesis. His visit fell right into the time of hard good byes. On Friday night we went out to Norrmalms and to Kårhuset for celebrating a last time with Marco, Marco and Ward. The Marcos left on Saturday morning. Ward, we brought Saturday night to the trainstation. On my way home I thought, if it always had been so hard. It was never easy, but this year it feels special. Because it is. This semester was special. More intense than the two semesters before. We were only a few, but the group fitted. But the most difficult way to the trainstation was definitely this morning when we set Christian and Maritha on their way to Copenhagen. Although we all know we will see each other again, this determinates a lifetime. It has been so special. So close with so many people. So many experiences. So many memories. Although we are still 15 people from the old semester, it feels like my time here already has ended. In 3 weeks I will l...

Moviestar

Last night I did not sleep that much. Maybe 3 hours. This morning I found out, that I counted too less working hours over the past three months, so I earned far less money than I deserved. Well, now I know it better. At 9 had to be at university, for an advertisment for the university's master programs. Haukes was there as well. He slept as much as I, but he still suffered from a hangover. But this movie was fun. We had to dress up in costumes and walked around in the clean room. It was the perfect job for that moment. We got told what to do and had just to follow orders. Very easy. Next Tuesday is the next and last movieday. I am looking forward to the result. When I arrived, Kevin, the director and teacher for the media-courses, looked at me and asked "Are you Markus? I remember your face". The he listed a movie and a salsa-interview I had particpiated in. I am impressed. Either he does not look so many movies or he has an excellent memory for statists whose biggest rol...
