Shake it!

2 a.m. and I'm still awake, writing..

I'm sitting in my room, trying to get some work done while fighting with sleepiness.
Music is soothingly flowing from the (online) radio.
I have just noticed that it is 02:00 a.m., when this song starts to play:

So, I start singing to myself: "breeeeeathe, just breeeeeeeathe" and hope for some writing inspiration.

Comfort taken to a new level

This is a bus stop in Aarhus.
No, no, they don't normally look this way.
That's just a great symbiosis between a Scandinavian practice (to leave your old furniture on the street, where it gets collected either by furnitureless students, or by a garbage company - whichever finds it first) and some lazy genius' mind.
Hooray for creativity born by laziness!

Sunny afternoon..

..after a sunny morning.. after four sunny days in a row..
 Am I dreaming? :)

Exam - Danish style: 1

This is how an average open-book 4-hour exam looks like in Denmark.

You are allowed to use any source of information that you find appropriate.. including the internet. You can also write on your laptop, instead of paper. Then you upload your file on a USB stick (which they give you on your way into the exam room).

I suppose that's not something that one can experience in Denmark only.. but I never heard of such a practice in Bulgaria. Also, for my open-book exam in Belgium I was forced to print some 1000 pages, because: "if you are reading from your laptop, I can never be sure whether you're not on the internet"..

* Roberta, thank you for making this (though blurry ;)) photo for me! :)

Be happy

The Danes are once again the happiest in the world. Norway, Sweden and Finland are also in the top 10...
The more I think about it.. the more I get convinced that I've got to be missing something in the picture..

 * I found the photo by searching "happiest people ever" on Google.
 

Time to sunbathe
