Grade and Packing - and expensive city life

WooHoo!!! The grade is 10! 10 is the Grade!! I'm pretty satisfied with my Advanced Computer Graphics grade!! :-D

I'm currently packing for my little trip to Germany - and it seems as if though I've packed more of my cute little girlfriends things than my own. I've packed an extremely thick sweater which takes hafl of the luggage space, accompanied by a pencil sharpener, some books, a hat, some scarf's (spelled scarves?) and a bag made of cloth - and I didn't even get to my own stuff yet ;-p

Last night I finished yet another project - what is it about projects, even short ones, that make you a bit sad to be finished with that? Is it because you see them grow from nothing, get attached by fixing all its problems and challenges, and then see it go out in the "real world".... That reminds me of something - I wonder what..!?


I still didn't get the books I ordered from Amazon, even though I expected them 2-3 days ago... Well, according to the site, they're not really supposed to be here until sometime between February 2nd and 15th - but I'm so used to those orders coming early that I was hoping I'd get them before travelling to Germany.

Today I'll use most of the day packing, considering thesis projects and programming a basis for the thesis project application. I'll also try to find a lot of time to simply rest, since I didn't sleep too many hours last night - caffeine really affects me, especially when drinking a litre of coffee and 1.5 liters of coke... so it's my own fault I guess :-)

I just found out that London is not more expensive to live in than Copenhagen, and Tokyo is no longer (after 14 years on top) the most expensive in the world. The list is as follows (danish city names):

1. (3) Oslo
2 .(1) Tokyo
3. (8) Reykjavik
4. (2) Osaka Kobe
4. (4) Paris
6. (5) København
7. (7) London
8. (6) Zürich
9. (8) Geneve
10. (10) Helsinki

Since London is so cheap, I see no reason not to move there ;-p So why am I not surprised about seeing so mony Nordic cities in the list? Actually I'm surprised the swedish capitol didn't make it - but maybe next year...
