It has been a very sad weekend… since some of the summer students already left CERN and we had our first goodbye party on Friday… Anyway, life goes on… We also had our Grand Finale in the official SummerSchool2005SkatTournament, where I got third thanks to some (damn I should stop here)…
But in all this sadness I found something to guide me through my future life… a new religion:
PPJB – PartyPeopleJungleBoogie.
(btw thanx and greetz to the carrier that delivered this message)
After joining the B40camp last week and the first PPJB ceremony I was a bit to exhausted to join Saturdays “We identify SummerStudents as StarWars characters”-session. But I was happy to see that I got selected as the honourable Obi-Wan Kenobi…
Since I’m to tired to work I decided to blog a bit about yesterday and the last night… After another day of beeing to lazy to do some
Yeeha… I finally made it to see THE MACHINE, or my big old friend, or whatever… And I also touched it, the TRT of ATLAS, the machine I’m working on for about eight months now… woohoo! (btw thanx to Katrine)
Somehow I just don’t know why I am doing what I’m just doing here at CERN??? I just left the GirlsBoysParty, probably the last offcial “kitchen parade” of this CERN summer school… This time the stunning topic was to dress like a girl (for all men) and to dress like a man (for all girls). And suprisingliy I joined this “crazy” party and even coached a team in a drinking competition (btw I still don’t drink myself)…
Last friday i finally went down to see the ATLAS pit, home of the biggest experiment ever! 92m under ground… unfortunaltely it’s so big, that it almost fills out the whole cavern, making it hard to get a good view. Anyway, it’s just awesome huge!
On Saturday there was the Fete du Lac in Annecy… which was a bit odd, because they locked the whole city, but offered the most impressive fireworks I’ve ever seen. They started out with some choir singing and ended up with 90m of fireworks… bambambigbang! Yeah!
