That's what I like

Weekend passed by and it was pretty short again. The weeks are flowing now. Suddenly it will be christmas.
On saturday Phil and I went to the university for lunch. Why to the universtiy? Because they have so much microwaves which we need for baked apples. And because universities are closed at saturdays we were almost alone in the building (you remember: all students can enter the university 24 hours a day with their access card). And now, because Phil wrote it already and everybody seems to know it: I made some movies of this procedure. But I don't know which tool I could use to cut and edit it. If anybody knows how to edit mov-files (Quicktime movies) please tell me. The baked apples tasted very good. We are the opinion of we have to repeat it. Pictures and a german receipt can be found at Phil's diary.In the afternoon we had a laundry and in the evening we went out to O'Learys with our spanish friends. It was nice there, especially with so many friends. But the music was worse than the time before. And when it became better I did not feel well, because I did not eat enough (night was too long). Because of this Phil and I left O'Learys at 2:15am and went to the Subways and ate. This was not a healthy day. I started with baked apples as breakfast, a pizza as lunch and a sub as (late) dinner (not to mention this very good spanish sangria...). Life needs days like this. Everything is documentated here.
On sunday was our advent-afternoon-dinner. It was very cosy meeting with a lot of cake, biscuits, indish tea and selfmade glögg. We even had christmas music. We were 10 people talking and eating until the evening when we made a nice walk through the wood.
Today, we have the weather as the rest of europe, I think. A lot of clouds, but this time high on the sky. And they are very fast flying. But this means also no sun today. I need a light even at half past 11am. And it becomes finally colder! Yesterday we had -1 degrees in the evening! Check Philipps measure site for more details.
This morning I confused my dreams with the alarm clock. When it alarmed I dreamed it showed an "Error" on it's display. After a while I dreamed seeing "12:34" on its display. Again a few minutes later Phil phoned me (in reality). But I was too slow to get to the phone in time. I thought he wanted to ask me for meeting at lunch. Another few minutes later I woke up slowly, watched the alarm clock and realized that it were just 10:25. I am very very confused now, because my expected day was only dreamed, but I enjoy the 2 extra hours. But I missed classes
and left Philipp alone there. I hope he can stand the lesson.

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...

If I just lay here, would you...?

After skiweek Philipp arrived in Sundsvall for defending his master thesis. His visit fell right into the time of hard good byes. On Friday night we went out to Norrmalms and to Kårhuset for celebrating a last time with Marco, Marco and Ward. The Marcos left on Saturday morning. Ward, we brought Saturday night to the trainstation. On my way home I thought, if it always had been so hard. It was never easy, but this year it feels special. Because it is. This semester was special. More intense than the two semesters before. We were only a few, but the group fitted. But the most difficult way to the trainstation was definitely this morning when we set Christian and Maritha on their way to Copenhagen. Although we all know we will see each other again, this determinates a lifetime. It has been so special. So close with so many people. So many experiences. So many memories. Although we are still 15 people from the old semester, it feels like my time here already has ended. In 3 weeks I will l...

Moviestar

Last night I did not sleep that much. Maybe 3 hours. This morning I found out, that I counted too less working hours over the past three months, so I earned far less money than I deserved. Well, now I know it better. At 9 had to be at university, for an advertisment for the university's master programs. Haukes was there as well. He slept as much as I, but he still suffered from a hangover. But this movie was fun. We had to dress up in costumes and walked around in the clean room. It was the perfect job for that moment. We got told what to do and had just to follow orders. Very easy. Next Tuesday is the next and last movieday. I am looking forward to the result. When I arrived, Kevin, the director and teacher for the media-courses, looked at me and asked "Are you Markus? I remember your face". The he listed a movie and a salsa-interview I had particpiated in. I am impressed. Either he does not look so many movies or he has an excellent memory for statists whose biggest rol...
