Lundi 26 Février

hej,
Hej , this afternoon , first class with gooch this semester , as usual , he started the lesson , talking about himself , his friends , his travels ... Bla bla bla
I can't stand when he is doing that he is so condescendant !!!
WHAT-E-V-E-R !!!! The new class is about European integration theories and policy making ! A blast , Gooch is talking , at the same time we have to copy his powerpoint !
Well , again , the class seems to be too theoretical but i'm waiting for the other teacher maybe he'll do better.

I'm still happy to get back , see my friends (but not my koridor mates that's why i'm MOVING)

Mercredi 7 Février

Hej,
This morning 10AM class with super Baaz , the international law teacher/Lawyer/Writter/.....
The first half of the day was about Humanitarian intervention , International theory .. then in the afternoon a focus on European law . Really interesting but i was so sleepy , even looking at the teacher !
He told us a bit more about the home examination , and that the most important book was ..................... his !
It was ..... cold today almost -10 with wind and snow all day long , with the bikes it's not that easy either you fall , lost some parts of your bike or even break it , break the lock .....
But life in Linkoping is still a blast thanks to all the people i got the chance to met!

Mardi 6 Février

Hej, This morning i went to the library to get my books back and at the same time buy this European law book . What a blast !
Then i went for the third time to ESN to get Herle's overall , once again no one heard about the So called list nor to the overall . I start to get pissed this time , but i remained polite !!!!
I will get in touch with another person which i hope will be able to help me .

In the evening i went to Richard , where i met Anja and Juan as well as Richard's koridor mates, we went to Hg where we met Nina , Masha , Basia , Loic , my peer student , Kamil and many more . I even met , Tobias , the German guy from the Swedish class , he is really friendly !!

Lundi 5 Decembre

Hej,
This morning , i went to Studenbostader to get my contract done for the new appartment . If you did not know i will move at the end of February to RydsAllé 13. I can't wait!
Then i met with Sabrina to go to Kerstin Office in order to pick the "so long waited for" grades of normative theories.
On the way to the office we met Loic who told us that we passed youpiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!
Once there , i found my paper and I got .................... B! I'm so happy , i though i had failed question 2 but it seem to be correct afterall .
I picked up others papers called them to announce the great news !!!! What a relief!
We picked up as well our thesis proposal "corrected" by Gooch , i'm not sure about that , there was like 2 or 3 comments on each paper!!! I'm sure he used our comments from the opposition seminar .
Anyway , later in the afternoon , i met with Basia , Nina and Masha for the Swedish class level 2 , i think some people did not get well the meaning of beginners class since they already speak Swedish fluently , like a Swed. This teacher speak all the time in Swedish during the class , and it's very difficult for me to understand , it's indeed my weak point . I can read and write but when it comes to understand , that's another stories.
I met a guy from Germany named Tobias , NICE!

It's the first day of February and the snow is already gone ! What the .... is hapenning ? i think Al Gore knows the answer : G-L-O-B-A-L W-A-R-M-I-N-G
Anyway , this morning i went to the university to pick up Herle's overall , and for the second time people at the ESN office lost the list , what is going on people , that's the second time i come and nothing !
Next time (Tuesday) i'll start to get mad if nothing happen again!
Then i went to Hemkop to buy the ingredient for my famous "Crepes au chocolat" i.e French crepes with chocolate.
I spend like 2 hours doing the crepes , melting the chocolate and pouring it into the crepes. I have to say it look pretty good and smel good as well LOL

Around 7 i went to RydSkolan mat sal , i.e Ryd School lunch room , and a lot of people were already there , host family ( mainly grandma and grandpa so sweet) and students. Everyone has cooked something : Tacos from Mexico , chicken salad from Vietnam soooooooo spicy, Apple pie from Germany , a kind of pudding from Belgium, meetballs and beans from Sweeden , a sweet sweet desert from Turkey that would kill a diabetic !!!!

After everyone was full , we listen to Grandma playing swedish/Scottish and Swedish/Polish music , it was fun, then we pushed the tables and everyone had to dance . And i'm telling you not the easy dance but rather complicated !!!!
This evening was a lot of fun , i met new international students!!!

Mercredi 31 Janvier

Hej,
Today it's the last day of January , so if you did not wish happy new year , you still have few hours to do it. LOL
We had class with Mikaek "cute" Baaz , all day long, from 10Am to 17pm but with break every hours as well as a luch break so it was not that long.
This class in so interesting , international law, United Nations bodies, conflicts of the late century ....
This teacher is a lawyer as well , so we can see he is quite at ease to speak and explain in front of an audience , unlike the previous teacher which were so theoretical/Philosophical LOL
Basia moved in her new place , she looked pretty happy , it's great for her ... and us , so we will do every parties there now LOL
