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

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
