Another term, another adventure

The new term has started, and it didn't go off with a big bang which I had anticipated. So far it's pretty calm at the uni, but I have other things to do outside of that which takes a lot of time for me. This wednesday we had a BBQ with ALVA to celebrate her names day, and there was actually a couple of people there. It went well, too bad though that the old members from last term didn't come, but I hope really they are coming for next meeting.
Other than that explicit meeting, time is running out for writing the article for the proceedings of the Moletai research school. Me and Thomas, which I work with, got some strange values on one of our objects and it has confused us. But we should get starting on writing the article soon now I hope, it's lucky that it isn't any long article we have to write.
After this article has been submitted, and of course I'm done with my corrections on the bachelor project, we will apply for time at NOT and hope to get some more data which we can submit a new article for later. It will surely be an awesome experience even if we don't get the observation time or the article published. It sure will look great on my CV to have that experience so "early" in my career.
Last night I had a movie night with some friends here, and today it's board games all day. Civilisations is our primary target, we'll see if we have time for something else. I hope we will be playing some more tomorrow as well. It would be a nice start of the term with pizza, friends and boardgames. It doesn't matter how much workload Melvyn put on us, I am sure to float on the clouds anyhow.
It's been a very long time now also since I was home, but strange enough I am not feeling home sick still. Guess I'm having a ball down here now, home I'll have time for later.
Also, I am considering skipping the Boelspexarna this term, that is working as a soundengineer for a group putting up kind of a musical each term. And instead join another spex which I talked to a guy at the BBQ about which seemed to have spots ready for saxophonists. A group to play in, how long I've yearned for that again!
To wrap things up, here's some photos from the ALVA BBQ:
There was a bunch of people there, and I tried to talk to them all. But I think they appreciated it and hopefully they will all return, and stay ALVA for good! :)
People looking at the zenith, they kinda thought it was interesting......don't ask me I wasn't there to see it.
No things are eternal, and that includes the summer heat. Eventually we went inside for some cinnamon and syrup. It was a good night, and lots of new interesting people.
