Weekend!

This is it. The weekend. THE weekend! This evening the big birthday celebration for Phil, Dennis and Nicola will happen. Nodody thinks, that we will stand up sunday earlier than 12 o'clock.
I certanly not. I stayed up only till half past 1 last night and i slept already till almost 12 o'clock this today.
Also i slept that long, i walked to the city with Karo, Julia, Katerina and Sebastian who wants to be called Seppel. Our homework for this weekend is in investigation about the inhabitants and "surströmming". If you don't know surströmming, you have to learn to be sure you won't try to eat it one day! I have not tried it, but all i know i guess it is very disgusting. The fish is headless (but with all his organs!) and and brews in a tin for several months. You need to open under water for two circumstances: First it smells like hell and second the tin is under month of brewing under pressure! Hans told us NOT to buy a tin by ourselves. The last year EILC-group did so and opened, not knowing how to open it... and not knowing, that the tin is under high pressure... we can imagine the whole story...
Anyway, we started our investigation and were finished quickly. At the afternoon we prepared a summary of our results. We decided for fun, that we will presentate them at monday pantomimicaly.

Monday will be also the day of a few diplomas. Hans will give a "surströmming"-party and everyone who has the courage to eat one will get a diploma. I guess, i will eat surströmming two times: for the first and the last time. The diploma-photos will surely be fun, but eating...

Anyway, i will try the local pizzaria with Seppel. Just to taste real food before monday...

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
