Moving out

Yapp, I am late, but to be honest, after international hiking tour there is not much to tell. Days pass and somehow I do not have the feeling like having time, although I spent every night in front of my computer getting bored while watching movies. This empty flat is going to get me. The highlight of the week is still the Spanish course on Wednesday. The people are so funny and I am always in a good mood when coming back. Every time I am ambitious for working more than I have to. But then, suddenly, it is Wednesday again. Luckily, because the evening course is fun, but adly, because somehow time passed too quick for finding mood and time to study. So, if I do not have time, what am I doing the whole week? Mondays I usually talk to people. "How was your weekend", "What are your plans?". It is always interesting. Recently the plans for the upcoming weekends were made. Not fixed, but the first ideas are there. This weekend I will go by car to Osnabrück, celebrating Phil's birthday. Only half week later we will have a small Erasmus 2006 reunion in Aken. The story became a little bit of a self runner and now we will be 7 people, traveling two days through Aken, Cologne and Jülich (near Aken). Two weeks later Christian is going to come to Aken. And most likely Anne and Jens will join, too! Wie geil ist das denn!?
Work is going well. After I fell a little bit behind the rest of the team the last weeks, I have the feeling to catch up. The program is now that big that everybody has his own corner. Even me. The corner is like my own little project. I program it in my style trying to hold every possible opportunity to make possible future changes worth least time effort. And that is absolute necessary, because I had to rewrite things that I though not to change ever again, just because we got a new feature to implement or requirements changed. But I have the feeling I to do something valuable. I like the project.
Today I installed the companies internal instant messanger (something like MSN, but not public). I remembered somehow the names of the people in Capelle aan den Ijssel from my job interview last February. I searched for them in the database, and to my surprise, they are just a mouse click away in my instant messanger. I did not believe that the single departments are that well connected.
When I came home today, I realised, that my two empty room we repainted. In the evening the landlord dropped by and told me he would have to talk with me about my moving into another flat.... about what? Yes, about moving into another flat. Because my room is already rerented to somebody else. That is the bloody limit telling me at last about what happens in my flat. But although he's very insolently, I did not complain. I do not really know why. I did not see a real reason that I could not easily deal with. The new flat will be at first floor to the back. Alone again, darker, hardly sunlight and everybody can watch from the backyard into my flat. But first, I am hardly at home anyway, and second, the chance for a change is somehow tempting, although it is only the change of walls I will live in between for the next three months. Then I will move out anyway. I thought about staying, but since I have to move to the other flat anyway, I do not care to move out soon, again. Somehow I like the idea. And new ideas are arising from it. You will see.

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...

I'm not an addict - am I?

My first month as full time employee is over and things are going pretty well. Work is currently quite easy going. I have time to improve things. Most likely it will be worthless when the think-tanks behind the projects create new requirements, but that's ok, because I now get salary. The freshly graduated students I know all go the same prestige-track: first they buy a new computer. I did it, too, for my old one was barely working since I drowned it once during a legen-dary story (Hälsningar till Mainz, lil åpa). Considering the law of freshly graduated students a flat television in a minimum size of 60" will follow, right after a new by-far-too-expensive car and right before the super-duper dolby soround audio system with playstation 3 which gets lost in the living hall of my new huge single-appartment. I - dont - think - so. Instead I asked for holidays and I hope to get a response, soon. If everything goes well, I will escape the summer for two weeks in July. As I said, wo...

First week home

More than a week has passed, since I left Sweden. It seems much longer. After I had arrived in Germany I traveled immidiately half way to Aachen. The night I stayed at a friends place (thanks Michael!!!), just for handing in my thesis on the next morning. While I was in Sweden, I was not happy for not being at home on my first night home. But in the end, it was good, I think, not to have time to think too much about where I have been just one day before. And the following days stayed interesting. Maybe because I was prepared for going home since a long time, but until now, I do not miss Sundsvall too much. But maybe it only comes later. The people I miss, but I have the feeling I would see them again, soon. But still. On Thursday morning, when I waited at university, counting the time had changed. Before I left Sundsvall, I was counting backwards (7 days left, 6 days left) and until Wednesday I counted forward. 24 hours ago, I had breakfast in Nacksta. Thoughts like this arose several ...
