Uppsala


Well so im back to Uppsala! it's been an enjoyable holiday that lasted 25 days, was it long enough? well one could never have enough holidays right? Anyhow, it's back to the freezing town and studies commence almost immediately, it's more of an end actually, we had a paper on friday and that concluded my course of Systems Analysis.

Spring term starts on Monday, it's funny how they call it Spring term, since it's hardly spring and the weather definitely doesnt reflect it! Well i guess it's kinda depressing to call it the Winter term as that would be rubbing salt on wounds isnt it; it's bad enough that we have to work hard, and to work in winter at that!

To cheer things up a little, fellow classmates have been organizing parties and get together so that we can all hug and pat each other in the back, the holidays is over! Someone's mentioning something bout a skiing trip over the weekend and yet some others venture as far as organizing a trans-siberian trip! I'm all for traveling so im just gonna tag along and not have to worry bout logistics and stuff.

And the best thing that happened since the year started is I've finally got back my internet connection! I installed Ubuntu as my new OS alongside Windows and now it's working like magic, here's to open-source OS!

It doesnt work well with my usual streaming application but that's fine, i can manage without the distraction of watching online TV, as it is, im already spending way too much time online!

Winter landscape is absolutely stunning, minus the cold of course. We still have short day time but that will change in the course of weeks. It's also time for me to look for a placement for internship, and im still up in the air as to where i would go. I guess i will cross that bridge when i get there.

Until then, Happy year 2010 everybody!
