Moab is my washpot

1 hour break during the busiest days since I have been here... and the title? :) Currently I am reading a book from Stephen Fry, with the same title... the thing is... as it is written on the wikipedia description, there is no reference to the title to the book. :) Anyway it is a very funny book containing plenty of advanced words...so not that easy to read:)...

Well to read, if I have time for that.. usually I read literature on the bus, if i do not get dizzy from that :)... And if bus. I have already written about how good Vasttrafic is, now only 2 new things:
  • The bus with the watered-window. I know, it sounds so strange but...so here these volvo buses (including this special one ) and the shorter, i mean, normal version has got an unique problem: due to some construction error, sometimes the water from the air-conditioning is stucked between the two glass layers! Sound strange, look so cool, you can look into the wave-theory. ;) so when there is a significant breaking the wave starts so move there and back.. ;)
  • Tomorrow is time to do the Tram day! We are planning to visit all the terminuses of the local tram lines. Hope it is gonna be fun!
I have just started my fund raising activities around, yesterday visited the famous Svenska Massan, one of the largest conference and exhibition center in Scandinavia. Several exhibitors, mostly from the field of industrial engineering, lots of pipes, valves, automatization, not my table at all... Had some thoughts about the spring course`s subject - food engineering, but rather HR-psychology-team work.. Personally I prefer the latter, since as an IPMmer got pretty good connections to this field...
And finally, my visioncame true, but it was not easy. International food and drink evening. :) Well, drinks, there were 3!
1. real mexican tequila, so no sunrise thing...and.. the real tequila is not coming with any salt or lemon bulls**t! You are supposed to drink it cold and pure!
2. sangria! the Spanish miracle! Funny thing was ... that it was the first time when Elena the Spanish girl prepared it, but definitely not the last! (and it was so delicious cause we added some Hungarian Vilmos Palinka see next)
3. Vilmos Palinka no comment:)

Here there are groups organized by students of each faculty`s members, and some of them own a room (kitchen and some amenities included, eg music) in the building of the faculty. So we can rent these rooms out for a very reasonable price , nono rather symbolical it was 200 SEK...
Aaaand finally we made the first group picture with some extra VIP guests!
