Well, it has been a while. But since I leave tomorrow for some tramping, I’ll try to summarize the last weeks.
- I had lots of work to do, but I finished all assignments and exams for this semester! Assignments and reports take up a lot of my stud time. The postgrad. exams are ok, the undergrad exam was rather funny: We had two hours, but I was through most of it after 30min. I wasn’t able to answer all questions, but it should be alright. The lecturer was not present, only the watchdogs: Four old ladies, equipped with devices to find cellphones, mp3 player and other technical devices that could be used for cheating. I heard, they were purchased from England! I wonder how much they cost… and there were other funny things (e.g. seating cards).
- I bought a boule (Pétanque) game. The right thing for the current weather.
- We had a nice BBQ at a friends house and there was a playstation with… singstar (it was late and I had some alcohol…). Other friends went back with the bus earlier. Some Kiddies smashed a window of the bus with a bottle of beer and hit my friends… The cuts in their faces are not too bad… this might clear up the question I asked earlier…
- My bruise is healing well^^
- I am having troubles with the Postbank again. I am missing NZ$800 out of my account and stupid Postbank is not replying to my emails. Today I sent a fax, we’ll see if that helps.
- I am hosting a guest via the hospitalityclub at the moment. The hospitalityclub is an hospitality exchange network like couchsurfing or BeWelcome (my favorit).
- Tomorrow I will head to Queenstown and then we will either hike the routeburn track or the greenstone and caples track. The greenstone track has avalanche warnings at the moment and thats not cool
- In mid November I plan to go to the northern Island. Do some tramping, maybe see a friend I met in India.. we’ll see.
That’s it for now…
