Night session

Wow. I feel like being at home. Like every semester i missed the point everyone gets running. But this time i am not used to the settings. For example: i have a distance course, which means there will be no lecutre for it. The course is called: Ogranizational Decision Making. I am registered for the course, so i waited for an email or a message. Something like "Hej, welcome to the course, this is your exercise, let's got!". Yesterday (well now, the day before yesterday) i found at the webpage at the course the exercise. Since 4/9 i have time to summerize 3 chapters of a book called "Organizational Decision Making". I have time until 22/9. Shock. Today (well, now yesterday), i waited for the only available copy of the book at the library. It is a short loan book which means you can only loan it from 10-17 or from 17-10 o'clock. I went to the library at 15, the book was already there. They told me, if i would loan the book at 15 i have to bring it back at 17, but if i would wait one hour i could loan it until 10 next day. Okay, if you like... so i read another book at the library, the same i read the days before. This time a have even exercises to gain extra points for the exam. And this time the exercises were very compilcated. But a was on good way to solve and after quarter past 16 i borrowed my book until 10 tomorrow (well, now this morning). At home i worked further on the first book. At half past 22 i realized i was working at the wrong exercises. Arg, why does this always happen to me!!! The exercise i have to is much easier than the exercises i worked on before. My life. It cannot be true. But it is. It's me. *sigh* So i started the "new" exercise, but have not finished it until midnight. I will stand up at six o'clock for last mathematical proof. Before i went to bed i read a few pages at the short-loan book. It's hard to read, of course. And i would be glad if i would have time for one more week. And if i would have my own copy of the book. Man... And i cannot sleep either! I woke up every hour, everytime thinking about decision making and theory. "What was the difference between 'decision under risk' and 'decision under ignorance'?". Like a feverish-dream. At 3 o'clock i gave up and started my laptop for looking for decision theory at the internet. At the moment i am thinking for ordering the books from UK, but i should think about again tomorrow (well, soon) with a clear mind (well, perhaps not that soon). Until that, i will hear Seb's chill out music, trying to get tired. My lecture this morning will start at 8:15 and i should finish my exercises before. I like decision theory, but it's just i missed the point getting started gain. I hope, Jim (the lecturer) will accept my paper instead of an email, but i had no time to write this exercise at MS Word. But i think he will. I am not in Germany any more. Here in Sweden they use more common sense... until now (well, yesterday).

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...

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...

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...
