going abroad

Tomorrow it is time for the second interview for the trainee program at Maersk. I will be flying to Copenhagen from Stockholm since that will be much cheaper for me than taking the train. Mom working for SAS is just great. I think I am prepared. We will see. At least I have got a suit now. I found one really nice from Esprit, a brown modern one. Not the typical black since I do not really like that.

Cross your fingers for me!

rinky tinky tinky

One of my favorite Disney movies when I was younger. And the song 'Everybody wants to be a cat' ('Alla snubbar vill ju vara katt'), is of course the best song. My sister and I watched the movie over and over again.

post-university syndrome

Is there such a thing? Now there is. I have just been home at my parents house for three hours and all these thoughts are starting to pop up in my mind. Basically going like this: noooooo... And at the same time I just want to be finish with the last assignments and have summer holiday. Little bit conflicting. I do not want to grow up and get serious. Do I have to? Well, I will just take on day at a time and hopefully I will figure it all out.

i want more!

...of Grey's Anatomy. Have to wait until September 9, 2008.
Soo long! Damn it...

the end?

Watched the last episode of Scrubs tonight. So sad. Then of course I had to Google it and read if it actually was the last episode since they only aired 11 episodes in season 7 because of the strike. To my delight I read that there is supposed to come a season 8, we have to wait and see. I did read it on Wikipedia. But it sounded true and I am waiting for some new episodes.

celebration and comfort from subway

Went to town to buy some things and get my mind of things. And stopped by at Subway on my way home to buy a sub and of course a lovely cookie. A combination of celebration and comfort dinner for having presented my thesis but still having a lot left to do on it.

Now I have finally called a girl I met that is just finishing her trainee program with Maersk. Got some tips for the second interview and some other things. It felt good to talk to someone who is already in and get information. It is likely that I have to do another logic test and answer questions about my qualities and such. Have to get prepared.

i love my tutor

My dear tutors. Don't you just love them. Well, especially one of them. I still have some work to do on my thesis, 'not anything difficult it will just be time consuming' as he said. Lovely, just what I need. It is not that they have comments, I knew they would. But to give me those comments today after my presentation when he could have done it a lot earlier. However, that would require the effort of actually open all oh my emails I have sent and read through the analysis.

So I cannot really be happy about the presentation being over and done with. I still have some work cut out for me. I agree on many of his comments, it is just the fact that my tutors have not been available the last couple of weeks and have not taken the time to read through my damn paper.

I am letting it go. I am taking the evening off and heading out to town.

d-day tomorrow

I cannot explain the great feeling I had waking up on Saturday. A day without having to go to school. I could just wake up at my own pace just take it easy. I do not even remember a day not having to go to school. But now it is time to focus again since I have the presentation of my master thesis tomorrow. Nice to get it over with, but I have no motivation. Been working on my presentation today but got no motivation. I am really close to the finish line now so cannot give up just yet. I hope my opponent and tutors mostly have good things to say.

The exam by the way, I hope I did well enough to pass. But of course the questions that I did not know that well came. I answered everything however, so if they are nice when correcting and I still get some points I should survive it. Crossing my fingers.

perfect weekend

What a great weekend. Long time ago since I had a weekend this nice and relaxed. It started straight after the exam on Friday, we went for lunch at a nice restaurant and then sat down at the pier with the largest cup of soft ice cream enjoying the sunshine.


It continued at home with a glass of wine and strawberries, does not get better than that.
The evening ended with going to the movies and watching the new Indiana Jones movie. What a lousy movie! Must be top ten of worst movies I have ever seen. Aliens? What?

The rest of the weekend continued in this lovely way. The weather was great and both days were spent on the beach. A lot of people did the same and some even got into the water. But not me, I do not really like when the water is colder than 25 degrees.
Saturday ended in typical Swedish summer style, a barbecue at my friends house. A great dinner outside in the garden with grilled skewers.
