The time has come...

It is KZ time, again. Let us hope the next couple of weeks will be ok! Exiting things are happening I hope. X-mas/winter party in KZ will hopefully be a winner! And off course the usual x-mas songs and cakes will brighten up our long working weeks. My bag is full of goodies!! Chocolates, cakes, marzipan, gingerbread men, and spices to make x-mas cakes! And even Catrin´s special glüwine-gummy-bears! And I have brought my Danish advent candle, brought home from Copenhagen by my dad. So everyday I will light my candle and keep track of the days until x-mas. Nice!
Now I am in Amsterdam. Sitting in the lounge at the Radisson Airport Hotel, having a burger and wine, enjoying my last evening in the western world...

Contract Law...

This heavy (1,9 kg) and glossy book dictated my life for the last three weeks!! Had a good study-weekend with Gjertrud last weekend, so much nicer to "suffer" together! Good luck with your exam in two weeks G!
I had my exam on Friday, so I have now placed the book in the bookshelf where it belongs! Hope it can stay there for a while... not so sure about the exam result though, but I did write a lot, and some of it is correct, so hoping for the best!

Now I just have to figure out what to take next... will it be maritime law or petroleum law...?? Will I ever stop doing this to myself...

Home sweet home!

It is great to be home! My apartment had a magic transformation while I was away! It is now fabulous! The living room and kitchen are both completely repainted and have great wallpaper on one wall. This is a picture of the kitchen wallpaper, so nice! The living room wallpaper will not show on a photo, it is almost silver-white with a white flower pattern, looks great in the living room! And last but not least, the old chair! It has been re-upholstered with a fantastic striped pattern! And the best thing of all, my great family had moved my furniture back in its place, cleaned the whole place, even the windows! And they had not told me! So imagine my face when I got home! I have been smiling ever since! Great to be home!!

Time to go home!

The time has come! The girls are going home! Well, crazy Kristin is going directly from here to Bali for her 4 weeks off. Have a great time Kristin! Catrin is already home in good old Oslo! Oslo here I come at last!!

This great building is the Atyrau International Airport! You can fly to 3 international destinations (all with the national airline Air Astana off course): Amsterdam, Istanbul and Moscow. Pretty good!

Halloween

We had a great night out yesterday! The quiz was a success (some of the questions were too hard though...), the black and orange punch was tasty and full of vodka, and the crowd was happy! In total, a fun event. After the Quiz some of us continued the night at a restaurant/nightclub across town. Halloween entertainment and dancing, a fun night out in Atyrau! It was not easy getting up at 07:00 today to go to work, but what's a girl to do....!
