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...

I will survive

Wow. I did it! I survived surströmming! At least it tastes better than it smells, but that's not difficult. I don't need that taste again in my life. Bäh.... But from the beginning: they day started with practicing for the surströmming-party. My group trained a pantomimic performance. Every group had to present their results from their surströmming-investigation. The first group presented a Talk-Show, the second was my own group, the third had a very funny surströming-commercial performance, the fourth has covered the beautiful song " Vem vet " (engl.: Who knows) to " Vem äter " (engl.: Who eats) and the last made a TV-Show. It was a great fun. After the introduction we were seperated into groups again to prepare the party. I decided to help the entertainmentgroup. We exercised a song, almost one hour. After that, Nicola and i decided to make a few scetches as serving couple. Because of this we went back to the hostel to change our dress, but when we returne...

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...
