Last Train

Yesterday, Basti and I had just swedish lesson at 10:15. But we both slept until 9:55. Don't ask me how this could happen. We switched our alarmclocks off at 9:00 and forgot about it. No, we don't sleep in the same bed or room.
But it was possible to reach the lesson at 10:20. At swedish we watched the movie "Kopps". It is almost with the same actor group like in "Jalla, Jalla!" which we had watched during the EILC. But "Kopps" is absurd. The crew must have had a lot of crazy ideas, appending them to a movie. Some were funny, but most the time it was absurd. Well, it was our fault. We wished this movie, because we heard from it. After the lessen we made an exkursion to Subway. Everytime when I am at Subway I try to order in swedish. Everything is alright until I reach the guy with the sauces and the guy at the cash desk. They always recognize me as "not-swedish" and talk english with me. Because of this, I asked Ella for practicing Subway-ordering in a roleplay, but she did not know Subway. This is why we made this excursion. And now, she knows it and we can practice.
Thanks to Philipp I were able to install my desktop computer. Before I had two broken CD-floppys, so I were not able to reinstall Windows. And because of this, I reactivated my RSA project I had started last year. It is a stupid idea, but power is for free in sweden, so now my computer will do nothing else than calculating RSA-problems with an algorithm I invented. It is not realisitic that it will solve a big RSA-problem, it is a unusual way to do it. Perhaps I found a solution by accident. Although the actual smallest unsolved RSA-problem has 704 digital digits, the computer will has to determin a solution for RSA-100 this weekend. This number was solved in 1991 in a few days. I hope, a computer from the end of the 90's can make this in a few days, too. And I hope, it does it with my algorithm. Just for proofing it works. Now it is calculating since 4 hours, without any result. Before I will try RSA-704, I have to modify the program, so it makes a copy of its work every 15 minutes, so it does not have to start from the beginning after a blackout.
Tomorrow I will travel with the remaining EILC-people from Sundsvall to Östersund (Denns, Phil). The others are already there. For tomorrow will likely be the last almost-complete EILC meeting ever. Almost complete, because Elia, Joscha and Martin are already missing. Nevertheless, this will be a hightlight for all of us and everbody who is still not in Östersund cannot hardly wait for tomorrow. Because I will have a very important phone call on monday, I will be back at sunday night.

För den jag är

Unbelievable. Anna is already since 10 days gone. Or is it only 10 days? I lost my feeling for time. Everyday is full of experiences and activities. I cannot recall everything what I have done in the past two weeks. Many things are just small things which I appreciate a lot. But the last weekend was a highlight. We went with 12 people in three cars to a place called Vallbo near Åre. We started at half past 6 in the morning on Saturday. Although some of us did not sleep at all during the fromer night we walked almost 8 hours. And it was awesome. We walked through so many different landscapes. Wood, swamp, high gras, Tundra, stone desert, climbed up a mountain, walked crosswards through the wood, on a dead river... Overwhelming. I remembered pictures of New Zealand while we wandered through that panorama. The view was breathtaking. The weather changed quickly a few times. One we had even an ice shower. In the end of the day we stayed for dinner at a pension where we got selfmade soup, b...

Ankle parade

What a weekend. Friday I watched "The Ring" with Christian and Maritha. And for getting down after the movie we watched Scream3. Saturday was a soccer-tournament in the Nacksta sportshall. When we entered the hall and watched the other teams we realzied immediately "Damn, they know how to play". So we started straight away we tactical plans. "Ok, first, with which foot do you shoot" - "Right" - "I as well right" - "Right, too" - "Don't know, I never kicked a ball before"... We were definitely the team with the most fun. We laughed so much. More and more werid tactics arised. From playing in a circle, so everybody can shot with the right foot, to Eileen's scare-tactic which should not explained in detail here. After three matches we were out, but we won at least the second. During the second game in injured somehow my ankle. I have no idea when and how, but I skipped for that reason the last match. The girls h...

Like I Do

The weekend was to short. During the first days I always have to remember Östersund. On monday I had a predicate logic lesson. Until now I can follow the lesson. The lecturer started to express everything in mathematical formulas, so can finally learn that, too. Yesterday we had swedish lesson. I like these lessons. Ella has prepared something, but we have everytime something else to question. Yesterday we brought a article about Anna from a magazine. During the lesson we read the article and discussed it. And because it was full of partizipels Ella taught us partizipels. Today Basti and I had our first Decision Analysis lesson. Because Jim became father another lecturer taughts the lessons. Aron makes his job fine, I think. He tries to involve the audience and explains everything in details and with funny examples. But one thing I don't like: as always at this university you need a course book. And as always there are just two copies at the library. And the bookstores have to orde...
