Anna left

As you can here in the last post, I survived my interview. Short before the interview I was asked by a colleage if I want to join a department-trip to Hassalar in the end of September. It is for a conference with a lot of fika and dinner. Of course, why not. And they want to make a second interview with me. This time in English, I guess, because it is for an advertisment paper of the university. Work goes also fine. The lessons go well and my computer seems to be finally fixed, so I can start with writing my thesis at university.
The favorite sport of this semester seems to be swimming. Everyday is somebody going to simhallen. On Tuesday and Thursday I joined. It also has a sauna what we used in the end of our visit.
Wednesday night was Anna's last night in Sundsvall during her erasmus year. We made a big party with Feuerzangenbowle. Everybody had to bring his own cup and now my red-wine reserves are depleted, but it was worth it. During the evening we made 4 punches and every time the rum got stronger. Almost everybody from Nacksta and even some Norrmalm-people came. I hope, that next time almost everybody will come. Jens and I already think about new topics for parties in our flat. The party on Wednesday lasted until past 4. I slept only until 10, went swimming at 3 and said good-bye to Anna at half past 5.

Good bye Anna! Hope you won't feel lonely, Markus. But I guess you have a lot of fans and friends now after this amazing interview ;-)

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
