No bromeo, soy alemán

Old sins always come back, they say. One of them caught me now. My own course. Today started the new quarter for me with a new course: decision analysis 1, a course that I visited myself last year. At least from time to time. I remember the laborations were pretty cool, because I worked with Basti. But the lessons I can hardly remember. I think, I remember slides I did not really understand, but the satisfaction always followed during the laborations when a given problem brought sense to theories. But now I have to hold those lessons by myself. Hardly content to tell. As far as I remember, the first 10 minutes in the last year courses (not only decision analysis) were necessary for getting a projector working with a laptop.

Because I am annoyed by wasting time with computer problems, I am using the whiteboard since the first lecture. The students have to suffer from my handwriting, but at least they only get what's necessary - I think. So today started a power-course with 3 students. Because the lectures are so short I made two in one today and we have been still finished after already 30 minutes. Therefore, the next lecture is free. I would not have felt well for asking them to come for so less content on next Monday morning again. And I can use the time more effectively, too.

And I got another idea. While preparing the lectures I realized, that I can learn a lot from this years laborations for my thesis according what is possible to solve with the decision tool I work with. If you are interested, check the demo of DecideIT here: http://www.preference.nu

Now I am free for almost two weeks. Thesis time. It goes quite well, I think. Except that my thesis is still not registered. I swear the next thesis will be right next to the bureaucratic source responsible for my case. But I am modelling and drawing trees. And sometimes I write even a page. And my TODO-list grows more than it shrinks. More and more small ideas come up how to get the thesis a little bit more reliable.

Mit der Schreibtischlampe willst du mich aber neidisch machen, was? Haha, aber das schaffst du sooo leicht nicht. Wenn sie rot wäre vielleicht... aber so nicht

För den jag är

Unbelievable. Anna is already since 10 days gone. Or is it only 10 days? I lost my feeling for time. Everyday is full of experiences and activities. I cannot recall everything what I have done in the past two weeks. Many things are just small things which I appreciate a lot. But the last weekend was a highlight. We went with 12 people in three cars to a place called Vallbo near Åre. We started at half past 6 in the morning on Saturday. Although some of us did not sleep at all during the fromer night we walked almost 8 hours. And it was awesome. We walked through so many different landscapes. Wood, swamp, high gras, Tundra, stone desert, climbed up a mountain, walked crosswards through the wood, on a dead river... Overwhelming. I remembered pictures of New Zealand while we wandered through that panorama. The view was breathtaking. The weather changed quickly a few times. One we had even an ice shower. In the end of the day we stayed for dinner at a pension where we got selfmade soup, b...

Ankle parade

What a weekend. Friday I watched "The Ring" with Christian and Maritha. And for getting down after the movie we watched Scream3. Saturday was a soccer-tournament in the Nacksta sportshall. When we entered the hall and watched the other teams we realzied immediately "Damn, they know how to play". So we started straight away we tactical plans. "Ok, first, with which foot do you shoot" - "Right" - "I as well right" - "Right, too" - "Don't know, I never kicked a ball before"... We were definitely the team with the most fun. We laughed so much. More and more werid tactics arised. From playing in a circle, so everybody can shot with the right foot, to Eileen's scare-tactic which should not explained in detail here. After three matches we were out, but we won at least the second. During the second game in injured somehow my ankle. I have no idea when and how, but I skipped for that reason the last match. The girls h...

Like I Do

The weekend was to short. During the first days I always have to remember Östersund. On monday I had a predicate logic lesson. Until now I can follow the lesson. The lecturer started to express everything in mathematical formulas, so can finally learn that, too. Yesterday we had swedish lesson. I like these lessons. Ella has prepared something, but we have everytime something else to question. Yesterday we brought a article about Anna from a magazine. During the lesson we read the article and discussed it. And because it was full of partizipels Ella taught us partizipels. Today Basti and I had our first Decision Analysis lesson. Because Jim became father another lecturer taughts the lessons. Aron makes his job fine, I think. He tries to involve the audience and explains everything in details and with funny examples. But one thing I don't like: as always at this university you need a course book. And as always there are just two copies at the library. And the bookstores have to orde...
