Nice, nice. So far, 2008 started quite well. But from the beginning. I arrived back in Sundsvall at the 30th December late in the evening. In my appartment I found a mail from my home university: they finally accepted my diploma thesis. Deadline is the 27th of February. Great, an end is finally in sight. The last evening of the year 2007 we spent in the Italian flat with a big dinner and drinking games afterwards. Jonny and Marzena has been there, too!!! Before midnight we drove to Norra Berget to watch the fireworks. Not that we haven't seen some, for at least since two days they shot as many rockets as at midnight itsself. And we were not the only people with the idea to go to Norra Berget. We missed the countdown so congratulations were rather spontanuous, but still sincerely. Afterwards heading back to the Marcos. I do not know when we finally went home. Pictures by Ward.
The following days were pure holidays. Sleeping long, having breakfast earliest at 11am, skipping lunch, playing card games, having dinner etc. At the 4th of January Maritha and I picked up Christian from the trainstation as surpise in the early evening. The same we did with Jens on day later. Now we're complete again. On Jens' first evening we went out with everybody who is already back in Sundsvall. But our mood was rather for cosy sittin than for dancing, so we went to The Bishops Arm and drank a few beer.
In the next morning we went to Sidsjön skiing. It was the second time in my life and first time going up the lift I was doubting if I shouldn't have waited for Vemdalen with its beginner-slope. But it was so great! Since then I can hardly wait for the skiweek in Vemdalen. In my rather naiv opinon we had great conditions. In the beginning it was snowing a lot and it was almost completely free from ice. Pictures by Ward.Since my diploma thesis is now serious I installed the project completely at my home computer. I can spare the time walking to university. Todays task: interface design. We will see how it will go.
