Becoming a Crystallographer

This is the blog of a future crystallographer, not that crystallography is the main area of discussion. I'll maybe mention it once in a while, while writing about my life and other things.

Climbing, Swedish and my lunch company

I went climbing today. I just came home a while ago. Took a shower and now I'm bored. Tomorrow I have no work and I feel like I should be somewhere at like a party or with friends doing something but I'm at home doing nothing. But oh well. I had a rather nice day. I think I should just go to bed and read a book.

I had my first Swedish lesson today. I have to say I was sort of nervous about it. I mean really. Like about not being able to speak any Swedish and like making a fool of myself. But like everything for me (knock on wood) it went really well in the end. I mean I did start up speaking German like all the time but the only thing we had to do in front of the whole class was like tell something about another person we had interviewed. I'd told the teacher I'd probably speak loads of German but she said I did speak Swedish which was really the best comment one can get really. :) But I do have tons of stuff I have to work on. Like remembering words and grammar stuff. But it should go ok as long as I pass the course and get to graduate. Oh but I do have to mention that there is another Elisa there and it bothers me. And well it would maybe be alright but she's the sort oof person who looks like she's judging people all the time and like she just never has any fun. I mean really. I hate to be mean but is it her face or is she just really what she looks like...? Well the good part of course is that I'll now be the nicer Elisa and of course the prettier one since I like to think I at least smile once in a while. (I'm sorry I'm being horrible. I'm sure she's actually nice.)

Climbing went quite good too. I got up all the walls I'd gotten up before which might not sound that challenging but one of them is quite complicated at the very top. (uh oh, hands sweating) I think it's rather great that I now have two people to go climbing with. I hope they put up with me and keep going climbing with me.

There's this guy at the university that I think keeps checking me out. It's like the same one that I saw at Rentukka. It's way funny really. Today I went to eat at the same time with him like almost every day. Now he like took his food at the same time and I had this feeling that if this stupid person in front of me had not taken so damn long to take his salad and stuff he'd maybe had sat at the same table with me. But he got to take the salads and stuff first and thus got to seat himself before me. And well I just sat in the table next to his since I wasn't sure whether it was just me. Besides, I have another project at the moment. But one day I'll have to talk to him for sure. At least say hi since it's obvious that he notices me and I him. And were both mostly always eating alone. I like company.

But I think I'll pick up my book and get reading. I don't want to waste my time at this computer. (Though I still have to watch my virtual fish grow and then sell their parents off so the tanks don't get overcrowded.)
