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

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
