Monday, May 31, 2010. The farewell Gasque was a real success, with the weather shining brilliantly despite a bleak forcast. Turned out that the rain came a day late, and we all did appreciate the blessing. Everyone was happy and expressed much gratitude for us to organize the dinner party, and it lasted pretty much the whole night at my home student nation, whereby four different bars were in operation and we had four bands playing. Summer is looking up to be really good, everyone will be going away but ...

Tuesday, March 02, 2010. The boat trip was a real success, everybody let themselves go and partied immensely as planned. It was real quality time that we spent together, a total of 40 hours, including the six hours sojourn in Riga where we did the obligatory city tour under thick snow and ongoing blizzard. All in all, no complaints! Except perhaps there was slightly too much alcohol consumption, but hey, it was duty free, so that has to be done! Luna cooked us some scrumptious taiwanese food, among them ...

Tuesday, July 20, 2010. Spending summer here in Uppsala proves to be more rewarding that I anticipated. I was kicking myself earlier for agreeing to do a summer internship instead of a fall one because that pretty much means im stuck here for the whole duration of the season and not be able to travel like everyone else is doing. There will be a change of scenery come September when the leaves start falling and we will be done picking blueberries and apples and pears by that time. If I have it my way,...

Marcus' Back-to-School Journal: October 2009

http://daqdude.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html

Thursday, October 15, 2009. Busy busy busy indeed! My computer has been throwing tantrum and doesnt connect me to the internet, and im starting to think that's a blessing in disguise, at least i can study more in my room! New course started right after without so much of a break, but that didnt stop us from getting a few much deserved beer after such hard work! I feel stronger and healthier now because of so much biking and fresh air, and it's free fitness too! So what's happening next? Or did the brits?

Saturday, March 28, 2009. So where was i? Right, i spent some quality days in offenburg in which time i've played farmer in Dominik's farm, played an enthusiastic soccer fan in three matches, and pretty much just partied hard for the benefit of my host. Time flies when you're having a fab time, and as much as i hate it, i gotta carry on my journey and Dom has gotta go back to the military, i know i'll always be welcomed back here as gran and grandpa love me to bits! Arrived in stuttgart yesterday and cam...

Tuesday, May 14, 2013. You can never be overdressed or overeducated.'. Doesn't seem like my fellow countrymen are heeding his well-intentioned advice. Even at our own regular Netherfield soirees. We have unmindful guests arriving in their ratty tees and casual flip flops wondering aloud why the rest of us are so dressed up. The rest of us blithely wonder whether they've just rolled out of their beds to lazily snatch up whatever's left on the top of the laundry basket. No, sadly I don't look like Kim Bum ...

Friday, January 16, 2015. Grizzlylocks and the Three Bears. Clearly written for much simpler times, fairy tales that we loved as kids tend to have astonishingly implausible plotlines that we would find wholly unthinkable in our real life from intrepid virgins who would heedlessly brave a stranger's hovel ( obviously no fear of stranger danger ) to wandering princes who seemingly plant their lips on random corpses ( unsanitary much ). Paul : Did Grizz just say he has a partner? Madison : Yes, he did.

Thursday, February 02, 2012. Staying in the Work Closet. Perhaps it's me but has there always been such a high preponderance of gay men. These days when I walk through the hushed halls of our medical schools to find my erstwhile classmates turned professor wannabes, my rusty gay-dar. After all without the distractions of emo. High school angst, we actually don't have much except our dusty books to sustain us back then. Or maybe it's true that enterprising gay men. I bet they don't know. At most of my wor...

Monday, December 21, 2009. Black Forest, Germany. The holidays has begun and it´s been doing me lotsa good so far. I needed it as life in Uppsala is starting to feel like cabin-fever syndrome with the temperature plummeted down to -18 degrees and freak snowstorm runs wild. The black forest is snowcapped too, but not the few feet thickness as in sweden, the one here is powdery and soft, nice to walk on, but perhaps not to build snowballs! I bought a new camera and should get the pictures running in no tim...

Saturday, July 25, 2009. Golders Green, London. We know how time flies but surely im not back in London already? It's sad but true, my seven-week recuperation period back home is up and it's time to move on again. Except i dont think im ready for what's ahead of me. I tire easily these days and havent exactly been in the pink of health, was having a tough time with my nose during my 13-hour flight here and i think i must have caught a bug or something, not the swine variety i dont think. Just another dud...
