I walked the line

Friday wasn't finsihed when i posted my second blog post. Being already tired Line and Phil convinced me to go with them to a pub/club/whatever. There you should bring your mp3-player for having your songs played. "This is the chance to hear GOOD music outside our apartmens" i thought. So i tried to get some sleep until 21 o'clock. On our way to the city we changed our minds and got to a club/disco/whatever called 360°. There was a karaoke-party. The entrance was free so we thought we could do nothing wrong. But the party had not many guests and the DJ had absolut no talent for mixing the music and the singers voice. At 23 o'clock the security told us we would have bring our jackets to the coat rack. So we toke our jackets and brought them to the coat rack... of the kårhuset. So it was the second location of the evening and i got my second stamp on my hand. And at the kårhuset were almost all the other exchange students i know. At the kårhuset the beer costs as much as in Germany. BUT: the workers are only payed with tip and the beer... we already noticed it at the supermarkets. It doesn't matter if the beer is fresh. If you don't take care you buy old beer without noticing it. And at the kårhuset it seems to be luck, if you get a fresh bottle of beer or and old one. Perhaps i should change to cola. Old cola tastes like new cola and costs lesser than beer.
After hours of dancing we arrived home at 3 o'clock and i stayed up until 5 o'clock to see the pictures of the evening on Phil's homepage. Now there are two new galleries: one of the melody bar (which only has the melody in its name) and the kårhuset.

Because of this i was tired all the day today. At 11 o'clock i stood up, walked to the library, borrowed the short loan book again, went back home, tried to read something, gave up and slept again until 17. Oh, and i rent a laundray... for 23 this night; the earliest free laundray i could get. But this wasn't bad, because this evening i stayed at Nacksta and watched "Walk the line" with Line, Anna, Phil and Basti. A very good movie, with, of course, good music.

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...
