Radio killed the Video Star

I have not much to do right now. My only lessons are predicate logic and swedish. Until now logic is easy to follow. Phil and Ulrich joined me at this course. Logic has less lessons per week than last period so i have a few free days. Next week decision analysis will start. Then things will become harder, i guess.
Today i had just laundray. And one of the damn laundrays did not wash. Look for the right machine, when you book room number 5 at Nacksta. Sometime the right machine stops after the beginning with an error-code. I washed twice. First it worked, the second round it did not. But luckily I did not have time to be angry about it, because Fabian visitied us at Nacksta. He was in Sundsvall to visit a german-lecture at school as a native speaker. After the lesson he visited us for a coffee. It was very nice to see him again. I am always happy to see one the EILC again.
Yesterday and today I had a movieproject in the evening. Lines project is to make a movie for university. And they needed supernumaries for a party in the movie. I am seen two times. First yesterday, eating a choclate dessert, making an ugly face while realizing the food is not good. I was not satisfied with my self. Because I am able to imagine me into situations, I thought I would still be able to act at least acceptable good. But I was not aware of my mimic and had no feeling for what doing right. I felt artificial. Today I got a call I would have to come again. I thought, because of the bad choclate scene I would have to repeat it. So I tried to imagine myself and thought practiced when I arrived. But it was totally different, even with two more sentences. I felt lost like last time. Well, perhaps studying computer science is even better than I thought. At least for me.
The movie team has to fight with several environmental difficulties. The microphone for example receives radio signals from a swedish radio station, so they have swedish radio-signal-noise in the background of the audio trace. Phil made pictures, of course.

Vad en bra dag för att...

Köra till Cykel-Nisse för att han fixar min cykel. Men han säger bara "Fredag". Visst. Jag komma då en gång till. Kolla biltidskrifter på ICA eftersom jag har kanske en ny job Läsa, läsa och läsa om thesis... på balkongen :D Dricka Cappuccino på balkongen... ensam :( ... Du har en bättre idé? Då kommentera! Läsa mer Svenska kanske ;)

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...

Friday Night

Wednesday and thursday where only university days. My robot can walk now from A to B and reacts properly to simple obstacles. But he has a problem with bigger obstacles. Those, who are interested in it: I covered the pathfinding algorithm from the algorithm for Bresenham-lines and added some simple reactions to obstacles. But I think I have to redesign it, because of the big-obstacle-problem. He needs a memory where he has already been on his path and he needs to calculate the path before he starts to walk on it. On friday I did nothing special. I phoned StuBo for moving to 16B, I could only speak on a recorder. Better luck next time. I also contacted my home university for some bureucracy stuff. I guess this will never end until I would leave Germany. Not that I plan to do it (I hear the rumors arising again). But I hate this German behaviour first to think about rising for denying service. For my financial support from the state, I need two applications from the university. But the d...
