Porzellan

Yesterday evening we had good-bye. Again. This time it is Ulli's good-bye dinner. Again. Sometimes student life is sad.
The dinner was very good. At half past 4am I changed the appartment for going to bed, because I still wanted to go to the AI lab. The swedish test I had already skipped in my mind. On 7am the doorbell ringed and woke me up. It was Markus from downstairs waking up Mathieu asking for cigarrettes, because nobody at the dinner had anymore. Sometimes, student life is great.
I decided to skip the AI-lab aswell. I can do the same work after the decision analysis seminar. The lab is just a time were you can do it, but my presence is not compulsory. Instead I staid at home working on my paper. After almost two pages, I have almost everything said what I wanted to say. It is not ordered and has a few pictures. I think, after structuring it, I will have 3 pages. But I need 10. So, my poor friends from the course will have to read wisdom gathered from the book. The important thing will be the first three pages. The rest will be for meeting requirements. Sometimes, student life is not fair.
It is snowing a lot and yesterday we had a new record according the temperature: -23°C in the morning. This could be a good opportunity for skiing down Södaberget this weekend, but because of the AI-lab and the missing 7 pages I doubt it. But there will be a salsa-party in town on saturday. Because it is a special event I believe, that many of the exchangers will be there. Last semester it would not have been just an assumption. It would have been certain to meet at least 30 exchangers at such an event. But the students of this semester did not have such an opportunity before. I hope, they will take it. Sometimes, student life is unpredictable.

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
