WHO’s THE MAster

Niels Bohr Institue

I’m the master… yeah, right!
Last Friday (February 23rd) I got my “Master of Science (Physics)” degree at the Niels-Bohr-Institute in Copenhagen.
After now in total 5,5 years of physics studies I am finally done…

Now it’s time for the next step… a PhD in physics!
With a request from the Niels-Bohr-Institute (Copenhagen) and offers from Sacley (Paris), DESY-Zeuthen (Berlin) and the University of Freiburg, I got quite a selection… actually quite too big!
I’ll post my new address when I got it… so be expectant!
For now I am facing some troubles that I have to cope with first…

The snow is after me [update]

Copenhagen

Is it an omen?
Last night we got heavy snowstroms in the north-eastern part of Denmark… unfortunately including the airport in Copenhagen…
Which implicated that my Supervisor couldn’t get the flight he intended to :-(
We’ll see if he gets here until tomorrow…

I seem to have a problem with snow this winter… hmm

[update]
after some (or maybe a lot) delay, Heike, my sister and father and Troels are finally here

Holidays… suck! [update][update]

Copenhagen

damn… well that’s a start!
I am sitting at the airport in Copenhagen waiting for the flight that was scheduled 45min ago…
and even better… now its scheduled for 13h50…
yap, right… four hours late

13h50… that’s also roughly the time when my connection coach is about to leave Stansted…
I am really enjoying my holidays so far…

[update]
well, now it has been cancelled!
the best alternative they could offer was Sunday morning…
honestly that’s what they offered looking at my ticket with return flight on Monday morning…

I AM PISSED! and not going to Oxford btw!

[update][update]
I wont get back the money for the coach I booked in advance…

Movies

Movies


Well what should I say… I started enjoying my sparetime with some going out and watching movies.
Until yesterday, covering movies like “The Departed” and “Blood Diamond” this was actually quite relaxing… but then my good old friend Pedro convinced me to watch “Hostel“…
With Quentin Tarantino being the producer, you sort of know that you’ll get sth “special”… but this is more than special, its just sick… but not a bad movie though… but sick.
