If I just lay here, would you...?


After skiweek Philipp arrived in Sundsvall for defending his master thesis. His visit fell right into the time of hard good byes. On Friday night we went out to Norrmalms and to Kårhuset for celebrating a last time with Marco, Marco and Ward. The Marcos left on Saturday morning. Ward, we brought Saturday night to the trainstation. On my way home I thought, if it always had been so hard. It was never easy, but this year it feels special. Because it is. This semester was special. More intense than the two semesters before. We were only a few, but the group fitted.
But the most difficult way to the trainstation was definitely this morning when we set Christian and Maritha on their way to Copenhagen. Although we all know we will see each other again, this determinates a lifetime. It has been so special. So close with so many people. So many experiences. So many memories.
Although we are still 15 people from the old semester, it feels like my time here already has ended. In 3 weeks I will leave and I kind of look forward to it. For me it can't become better than the last 5 months. Not here. I found what I was looking for. Now it is time to use it. In three weeks I will hand in my thesis. The worst piece of work I have ever delivered. But it was worth it. The master thesis will be under completely different conditions. Conditions that make you work harder. Conditions that make you more efficient. Conditions that will make you remember treasure moments. Moments that just have passed.

Beautifully written, those last sentences. Quite emotional.

First week

Now it has been almost a week since I came back and I remember why: because of the summer. It is the most beautiful season here. And I tried to take advantage of the weather. I got a new bicycle for I changed my small blue one with Anna's big yellow bike. Funny, it is the same modell as mine in Germany - just bigger. My first ride was to Sidsjön two days ago to have a picknick there. The day after I repaired the brakes and today I bought a new lock and oil for the chain. This evening it rained and tomorrow shall be the ugly weather, too. I want to try to use the next sunny day for a small tour. Probably the road along Sidsjön out of Sundsvall.

Aller guten Dinge sind drei

On Friday we had a party at Norrmalms. And because the party room looses power at 12pm everybody had to bring candles. Cool idea. In the morning I felt a little bit dizzy. I guess, due to Matt's Whiskey-Coke. At a Whiskey-Cola by Matt Coke is only used for giving the Whiskey a slightly darker color. On Saturday we have been to Kårhuset the first time since weeks, because Marcolino, Thomas and Jens were working there for the first time all together on one evening. And surprisingly the party it was very good. First we conquered a private party at the upper floor. It was meant for some Swedish students, but they were already drunk and not caring about who enters the dinner room. And they had a cool Live-band who played only good rock. They stopped at half past 1 and the last two hours we sticked to the usual dance floor who did not have the usual annoying Swedish chart music. I cannot recall what they were playing, because most songs I did not know, but it was funny. Somehow, this se...

3rd erasmus

Yesterday was the inofficial start of the 3rd erasmus semester because Jens arrived as the first of the new students. He even participated at the EILC in Falun! And guess what, he's our new flatmate! The main part of the new students will come this week. That the new students arrive means also that the last from the 1st and 2nd will leave. Today it was Benjamin's turn. The only good thing is that from now on there won't be less students in Nacksta than today. Jens and I brought Benjamin to the trainstation and walked back through the town. In the afternoon we will maybe walk to Sidsjön and at night we will check Sundsvall's pubs. For the 3rd erasmus semester has begun.
