Getting started

Again Sunday, again a post. It is not on purpose, but somehow after chilling Saturdays Sunday seems to be the perfect day to watch back. Working really becomes to a routine. Twice a week, I stand up half an hour earlier for translating these Swedish car articles. If I do not have the early shift, I try to stand up earlier anyway for being sooner at work. In return I can leave earlier. For going to sports or making laundry. This week I started sports. First on Tuesday that is called "Fitness with music". The description sound more interesting than the title. And in fact, it was fun. Wednesday, I participated in the table tennis training. I do not know why, but tennis kinds are the most amazing sport to play. Thursday, I finally made laundry. Making laundry is also kind of sports here, if you live at the third floor (German counting) and the machine stands in the basement. Very funny, after the sports two days before. Even more funny when you reach the basement and realize that you forgot the coin for activating the power supply. Or the washing liquid.
Friday was finally this international welcome party I was waiting for. I went the straight at 9pm. But instead of erasmus feeling there was cultural program. When I arrived some guys were humming otiental music for half an hour. After that came some dancing groups from columbia. Pretty nice, but nothing for party mood. They asked several times for attention, but according to the applause, especially by men, I believe only the salsa group had real attention. After two hours I had enough and left for some real entertainment. But on my way out I met Ulrich and his friends and they wanted to give the party a second try. Luckily, we did, because after 11pm the shows were over and the real music started. Really cool.
Saturday was a relaxing day. I stayed home, opened the window in the afternoon and enjoyed the sun. Although I had not plan to, I've been out with my brother and friends in the evening into a disco. Was pretty cool, but nothing for dancing, since the music changed so quickly. Or I was just too tired. Or dizzy from a slight headache (for sure not from alcohol!).
So what's the plan. Today cleaning, since it is my turn to clean. Then some work for getting free from work a little bit earlier this week. If it is possible sports at 5pm (they even have a weekend program). If I find time, in betweend enjoying the sun again. And, if I am lucky, I can already go tomorrow to Amsterdam for queensday that actually is on Wednesday.

Nägel mit Köpfen

I tried it already once in February, but changed my mind. But now finally I am that tired of writing a blog for everybody, that I quit it. It's more a principle thing I am tired about. Thanks to all (both) responses pushing me to continue my blog a few weeks ago, but it really does not make sense anymore. For the few who liked it, we are in contact anyway (excl. mijn anonieme vriend van Friesland; ik denk dat je anonimiteit moet opgeven, als je verder informeerd zijn wil: facebook, hyves of een biertje indien ik kom naar Friesland - en deeze keer mer conversatie dan alleen "hi" ;-) A bit statistics: this blog has 53 posts in 14 months. Most visitors came from Germany (798), Netherlands (732) and Sweden (210). Keyword that was used most to google my blog: "officina del mare brescia" (I think, earned another free dinner for good publicity, hahaha). Anyway, I had some new ideas for the blog the last days. More back to the roots, because in basic this blog was supp

EILC 2008

In the end I want to publish something that might be of special interest for those who spend the EILC 2006 with me in Härnösand . Midsweden University officially has an EILC 2008 this year!! EILC stands for Erasmus Intensive Language Course. In 2007 Miun skipped it. The old EILC 2006 page is deleted and new site of this year's course is http://www.miun.se/eilc/ . Looks quite similar to our starting page two years ago. Only Björn is now Johanna (check personal staff). And they could have at least published new pictures from Hans and Ella. The new course is going to start in 2 weeks. If I imagine I would have stayed in Sundsvall as first planned, I would welcome the EILC students on their Campus trip... funny. I had no idea when was at their place . But since I only linked my pictures at that time to Hans EILC page, I have to repair my articles from August 2006 now, because all pictures are lost, of course. Luckily I saved at least those from the blog somewhere. But does anyboday h

Almost master

These are my final days as student, for the trip to Sundsvall was a success. When Ulrich (surprise-guest) and I arrived in Sundsvall on Friday evening, it was too warm for snow and the streets were clear. But during the presentation next morning, it started to snow. Since then I have been in a snowy winterland. The weekend was beautiful. I somehow passed the presentation, I just need to make some corrections. Because of holidays it will take until February until I can apply for the master degree - until I receive it, it may take weeks or even months of bureaucracy. Anyhow, it is nothing that needs much effort, but patience. Sundsvall is pretty much the same like last February. They reconstruct the outdoor swimming pool to a kind of adventure pool and the campus at the university gets a new building. I was able to do everything that I wanted to do: A lonely night walk on the tiny paths in the woods while it was snowing and visiting Norra Berget and Alnön again. Sandra and Ulli have th
