The Chronicles of Life and Death

Today nothing special happened. Well, there are some things. First, I wondered about my lecturer in Decision Analysis who knows my name and I don't know why. Second, after 18 month of abstinence I posted a picture at www.fotocommunity.de. You probably know it already from my blog about the barbeque in september. I changed the cut, as you will notice. But I like the motive and the depth of the picture. Have a look!

In the evening I had a nice walk with Phil through the woods. Since my adventure with Basti at september I was longing for something like this. We started at almost nine o'clock in the evening and were prepared with torches this time. We went tiny pathes and after almost two exciting hours we were back at Nacksta. During our walk we swichted the torches sometimes off to see the stars. It was amazing to realize when they became more and more the longer the eyes got used to the darkness. For the picture we installed one of the torches in a tree to light us during the exposure. We did not see any animal. We even heard none. It was totally dark and silent out there. I always expected wrinkling eyes infront of my torch, but the were only trees, mudd and frozen ground. Now we have an imagination of the pathes. They do not seem to be made by animals, because they cross like ordinary roads and at the end was even a small wooden bridge. And we found food traces from humans on them. Next time, we will test the other pathes. We know now the "main"-path an will test the others next time. I hope soon, because I love these small adventures. They touch your senses and make you feel alive.

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
