I Don't Feel Like Dancing

At the moment weeks pass very fast (haha, at the moment pass weeks... never mind). Wednesday and friday I made free lazy days. Thursday was an interesting day at university. It started with the AI laboration in VisualProlog. VisualProlog is different to the SWI-Prolog I learned in Germany two years ago. It has declaration parts for domains, predicates, funtions and some other things. We had to implement a program which gives an advise what to do with money (spare or risk it). It was not very difficult and I finished after two hours. The remaining time I learned swedish adjectives at the library, because I fear of being forced to rewrite the test I missed two weeks before. But I had not to. But Ella told us about the decision of MidSweden University not offering any EILC's anymore. This does not effect me, but it is very sad. I would not be the one I am, if I would not have participated in this course and I believe that there are unassessable profits growing out of these courses. They do not just cost money, the build the basement for a very successful abroad and for strong community.
Although I only have slept 4 hours during the night I participated at the salsa course in the evening. I was not good, but I enjoyed it as always. This time it was really fast and we switched partners every 2 minutes. Afterwards I went with Sorana, Nina and Gerri to Skeppsbrokällaren and drank a beer. But they closed already at 9pm because fo too less customers. I guess, Sweden is the only country in the world where bars close earlier than supermarkets. After such an exhaustive thursday I slept very long until lunch time on friday. The rest of the day I stayed at home doing exactly nothing. In the evening was Wiebkes birthday party! Thanks for invitation and fun! Hartelijk gefeliciteerd! Parties happen now more often at Nacksta. The are as frequent as last year. Tomorrow will be already the next one. For party pictures of the birthday-party, you have check Philipps homepage later.

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
