It is grrreat to be back! I love it here. This year I have even better courses than last year, especially second semester it will be just amazing! Right now I have three modules: 1) Global environmental politics, sustainability and security, 2) Contemporary Latin America, 3) Islam, Foreign Policy and the Developing World. No complains!!!
I have two weeks of lectures behind me and I am already swamped with assignments and reading-to-do. Feels like I am two years behind... though I have learned here that there is and always will be something you could do more and better so no reason to get upset about the "falling behind" -feeling. Of course I did spend last week in Denmark instead of attending the first week of lectures... so here we are! What would life be if we did not have to bear the consequences of our actions.
Ålborg, Denmark was grrreat! I loved it. Friendly people, interesting discussions, great food, good wine, nice entertainment, ... Why not!
I went back to basketball this year and well.. I love it! I am playing for the first team but feel like I am the worst (least experienced) player which means that there is only one way up. I feel that every practice I am developing my game, getting more skills and becoming more fit. I really enjoy the feeling after a successfull practice when the team has worked really hard together.
I kind of had to quit all other extracurriculars, this one hobby of mine is quite demanding so besides I'm only committing for church activities, especially 24/7. Well and maybe salsa classes on Tuesdays.. They are just offering too many good things here! Besides, they are not letting the second year students have it easy which means that I need to continue reading about Conceptual perspectives on gender in Latin America now and continue writing some other time!
Ta-ta!
