Mer losse d´r Dom en Kölle, denn do jehööt hä hin.

Friday evening Basti and I joined a karaokee-party at Felix's and Sandra's flat. But this time my vocal chords struggled with my cold.


On saturday Basti and I stayed in the living room, wasting time. I tried to cure my cold, because at the evenening should be a party. First there was a pot lock (look, luck?) party. We made filled champions. According to the others, they tasted very good. Good to know. I fear, when Joana was here, I has forgotten the onions. And this time I tried more spices. Short after the food party was a second party at 20B: a carneval party. It is not common in Sweden, so some germans got the idea to introduce the carneval to Sweden. At home, carneval is not my thing. It is just usual in some parts of Germany. At carneval everybody becomes drunk. The days in february are the worst/best (depends on which side you are). It is the end of carneval and daily life changes totally. People don't go to work and just celebrate. After having participated as teenager I don't like it anymore. This year I heaven flet to the dutch coast to escape from karneval. But introducing it to Sweden was fun. The music was great! First they started with german carneval music (usual this is not my favorite). But then they played almost forgotten songs I heard when I was ~14. We danced a lot Sirtaki! All in all it was the best party here in Sweden. Very good music, excellent atmosphere. I was back at home after 4 am. It was so cool. And, as you can see on the pictures, it was sometimes surreal, too. For example, there was a swedish counter party at the same house. But because we made so much interesting noise ("Hey, Hey Baby! I wanna kno-ho-ho-how...") they attended our party. Another example: some laughed at Basti and me "I thought you are quiet boys". Quiet? Only in daylight.
There are a lot of pictures: Felix, Sandra, Nicol, Nikola and Marco have each an own galery with amazing pictures.

At this morning I woke up after only 5 hours of sleep. We expected Malgosia from Östersund to arrive here. So Basti and I met at 9:30 in the kitchen, drank tea and tried to avoid loud noise. My voice was so hoarse. And when Malgosia arrived, I welcomed her with a hug and the first thing she mentioned: "You have a hangover". That's a good start for a day... We made a small walk through the wood and watched "American Beauty" in the evening. She will leave already tomorrow. But we will meet again at the EILC-Good-Bye-Party in Östersund next weekend.

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
