I wasn't nervous, when I woke up today - but when I went to the university and saw all the people and hundreds of bikes and cars I really got excited. Compared to the University of Applied Sciences in Austria, this University is huge. Someone told me that there are 10.000 students, which seems kind of unbelievable...
On Saturday everybody was really tired because of the party on Friday...nobody was in the mood for partying. Nevertheless, I went to town, where I met Matias - a cool Swedish guy I've met on facebook. He took me to a birthday party and to some pubs. It was really strange, going on a birthday party where I knew absolutely nobody, but it was cool, though. I met a lot of nice swedish people and had a lot of fun. I even learned some new Swedish words (although I've forgot most of them already...).
Sunday started with a big breakfast that Andreas, a fellow-austrian, prepared for us. He made bacon, eggs, coffee...everything that's important for a good english breakfast. Afterwards we decided to go to the lake. So we went to the beach - although it was really really cold and very cloudy. But we thought that it might be the last chance to go to the lake (soon it will be much colder and who knows how much time we'll have when the courses start...). Although it was quite cold, we had a good time on the Vänern lake. The la
st few days I was on a smaller lake near the Campus but this time I went for the big one ;). We found a nice Bay with rocks and sand and enjoyed the sun (luckily the clouds were gone quite soon).So, that's it for now...I write again soon (prob. tomorrow when I had more classes...).
I also uploaded some pics of the first Week in Karlstad on Flickr (click here)...
