Tentakravall

Sunday, 28. October 2007, 12:38:48

Jippie one more exam is over now

Time for one of the biggest kravalls in the year: The Tentakravall which took place yesterday in Karallen. I don't know how many people where there, but I guess a lot - it was quickly booked up. But thanks to Dave and Thom we had the pleasure to be there

We danced a lot, drunk a lot, sang a lot of karaoke, laughed a lot,... it was really a fun night and a loooong night (due to switch to winter time)!!

need a break...

Wednesday, 24. October 2007, 10:14:18

Yes it's learning-time again, on saturday the final exam of our second course "International Business" will take place. Yesterday we had additionally to hand in and present our final assignment (my topic: Future pathways of the European automotive market instancing on general motors). Due to the fact that we are 12 teams in this course, we had to listen to 12 presentations - really boring

Hence in the evening we took a little break of learning and celebrated thomas' birthday, which he had 12 days ago

. Ending in HG once more...

Our present for Thomas No.1: "all ingredients for a romantic sauna-evening with Anja" thus Thomas No.2 tinkered a symbolic sauna out of a beer-pallet... nice work!

Weird night in Flamman

Saturday, 20. October 2007, 14:15:44

Yesterday we really made it to Flamman - what a great thing

For the last 2 months we always talked about it (=going to flamman), but never really did it. First impression: weird! The location is quiet cool but the people were - let's say - different.

But it is not always like that, as the others say. I'm wondering when/if will be the next flamman-visit.

On Wednesday they play live Jazz there, and that is very great I've heard. Let's see...

Stockholm with Tobi

Tuesday, 16. October 2007, 17:29:13

After a little Good-Bye-Tobi-Dinner at Sunday we started our journey to Stockholm at 5 o'clock in the morning. Our first stop was the Red Boad Malären Hostel - a houseboat in the centre of Stockholm - to lighten our baggage. We took the ferry to Djurgardstaden, where we wanted to visit Aquaria - a water museum - but it was closed on Monday, so we visited the near Vasamuseum. This famous museum is about a huuuge viking ship, which was perished in the 17th century and was salvaged few years ago. It is really impressing to see what these people had built up at that time. They also found skelletons(or parts of it), clothes, tools, and other stuff - really interesting, no joke!

Following we went back to the city: lunch at Pong (great Asian buffet), shopping, sightseeing, drinking coffee, window-shopping, dinner in the same Pizzera as last time and a good-night-drink at the house-boot's terrace. A very long and exhausting day!

Today I had to say good-bye to Tobi in the morning

I would have wanted him to stay, but he will have gratuation ceremnoy at friday and some job interviews the next days...

Two very nice days in Stockholm, but the end was sad.

mhmh delicious pizza

Sunday, 14. October 2007, 09:31:05

Thanks to Emma we landed in a great Pizzeria yesterday - Restaurang&Pizzeria Napoli. Delicious pizza, Vitlöksbröd and salat - but way toooooooo much. Only Tobi and Gregi ate up, all others hat to capitulate - like me

In Swedish Pizzerias it is common to get cabbage salat, bread and butter as a starter for free and it is also common that the pizzas are that huge, that you can't see the plate under it.

Corridor Party

Saturday, 13. October 2007, 16:40:28

Yesterday we arranged a Mega-Corridor-Party in our Corridor. Why? Just for fun! Everybody (Catherine, Mathias, Matthias, Hanna and me) had to invite at least 10 people, thus the common room was full

And by the way we celebrated Thomas' Birthday! Gratulations!

For evident-reasons - to see who have generally been here - we hanged up a poster, which every guest has to sign.

Great night (until 5 o'clock in the morning), great people and great mass in the morning -> you can say a really successful party!

the last days

Wednesday, 10. October 2007, 08:41:50

<< Sunday >>
Tobi and me had a really lazy sunday this week. The highlight of the day was that we found elephant's bull during a walk trough the wood.

<< Monday >>
After a lecture in the morning we enjoyed the sun, played tennis and went to the sauna. That was a really fine day! If you live in Ryd you can easily rent one of the saunas from Studentbostäder, you only need to pick up the keys and fire the sauna yourselves. For free!! Of course the saunas aren't the most wonderful ones, but you can enjoy it anyway. mhmh...

<< Tuesday >>
Yesterday we've been to Norrköping and this time I also saw the beautiful part of it (which I haven't seen last time). Now I can also make my choice: Norrköping is more pleasant than Linköping! Because it has a lot of these great old beautiful villas in the city, a lot of park resources and is very very clean. In the evening we've been to HG - of course - after a Sangriaparty at Ana's place.

Sunday, 7. October 2007, 11:00:23

Yesterday Tobi and me visited Gamla - the old city of Linköping - and the city itself.

In the evening we made barbecue in front of my room - yes barbecue in october!

It was nice, but became very cold after a while.

Watch the Photoalbums for pictures...

Tennis and Party

Saturday, 6. October 2007, 14:41:28

In Ryd there are a few tennis courts from FRRyd, which you can use for free, you only need rackets and balls. Great opportunity! So Tobi and me took advantage of the nice weather yesterday. Although it's not real warm any more, it was ok

In the evening Petra and her corridor-mate(s) (I'm not sure who actually invited people besides Petra and Christian

) made a party, which was really funny

On Tuesdays everybody starts early with his/her studies in Ryd, because the evening is booked for HG.

Yesterday in the late afternoon HG arranged also an Oktoberfest for all german-speaking students with original Schweinshaxe und Sauerkraut. But we haven't been there, entry was too expensive and the thought of a pack germans yowling folk music wasn't that charming.
