Jojojojojo

The waiting on Thursday had an end at 6pm. A familiar voice shouting "Markuuus" and "Philiiip" outside instead of ringing the door bell indicated that our little Gema had arrived. We spend the whole evening with talking and being happy she made this incredible trip to Sundsvall.
I stood up today at half past 9. I woke up Gema when I tried to close the door to the living room, because I wanted to make tea in the kitchen. We spent half of the day talking about old an new times in the kitchen. I learned for example that the spanish "j" is not spoken as in English, German or Swedish. Good to know after ten month. It gives totally new aspects to the MSN-conversations we had.
Later we studied for a while. I wrote my last critic about one of the articles. And in the evening Gema, Ata, Solene and I went for a walk to the lake upstream the river. It was beautiful weather and Gema has never been at the lake during her erasmus time before, so it was even nicer for her. A few pictures from the trip can be viewed at my Picasa-album.
In the evening Phil, Ulrich, Gema and I went to Skeppsbrokällaren, drank a beer and got home wet from the rain at 2am. Tomorrow we will stand up at 10 and go to the canoe race at the river next to the university. Because of the weather I am really happy I did not join the Höga Kusten trip. I would not have enjoyed tenting in the rain. And I would not have spend so much time with Gema.

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
