My 5-month stint in Sweden: Final presentation down....

Finally, my final presentation is over. There was a huge relieve of burden after everyone clapped their hands. I really love the topic that I was presenting on because I really found it very interesting, to be able to enter the world of the Schizophrenics (not that I became mentally ill) but at least know or hypothesize what is going on inside their brain. On the other hand, it was kind of sad that it's over already... just like that.

What really are remaining are the final lecture on Alzheimer's Disease, my final research proposal, the written paper, and the oral examination (no it's not a dental check-up), and that really is it, end of a pretty enriching semester. If I were to say that I really look forward to the holidays, I would be a liar, really.

But many challenges lie ahead still, the kind of new courses that I'll be reading back in Singapore, accustoming back to 29 deg C (yes I am already complaining that 7 deg C here is WARM), etc...

I was very happy that my classmates were finding out more about Singapore from me and saying that they might want to come over to Singapore to study (maybe for exchange?). That would mean I MIGHT get to work with them once more as well as getting them to know more of my friends in Singapore too!

So far, only 1 person guessed correctly that I'm from Singapore. Guess who........... He's the caretaker of the building that I reside in now. He came up to repair my broken tap, and immediately he guessed that I'm Singaporean from the way I spoke. Smart!

The christmas feeling is here already, the decorations are all up, and christmas gifts are aplenty in shops. I personally bought a container of traditional Swedish gingerbread cookie which tasted pretty nice. I hope Christmas here would be a blast! (And may time stop on Christmas Day haha kidding).

*Lightings are up*

*That's an ice-skating ring with no ice. It's plastic with some chemical on it*

*Christmas Tree outside Biomedicinsk Centrum*

Oh, and 1 more thing... I don't know who this is from, but since it's in my letterbox, it has to be for me right? Whoever it is from and for whatever reason it is, you're welcome! =)

*Only a few people know that I have a presentation actually*

I made a trip down to Malmö a few days back to look for some Asian shops with Huimin. And we were so busy wow-ing at the long-time-no-see Asian food stuff that I forgot to take pictures of them. Urgh. But anyhow, we bought stuffs back for steamboat dinner! Woohoo.. can't wait for it. And I bought some 汤圆 for myself too of course since that was what I went to Malmö specially to get to satisfy my craving for it.
