Fiesta de Facultad de Informática

Friday, April 27th, 2007

It had to happen once. Party in school. Lot of drunkards from computer science went to school, even those who usually won’t come, and all of us came to enjoy Sun, paella, beer, sangria, alcohol, alcohol, alcohol…

All of us 1 – me, Tobias, Frank, Daniel, Birgit, Casandra

All of us 2 – Tobias, Frank, Thorsten, Birgit, and Daniel

Even some Spaniards came. That’s right, not only Erasmus students do party!

Tobias and Frank

Frank excited from techno music.

Casandra was smoking so much that she forgot to light the cigarette…
Poor girl…

Me with some random Spanish guy who wanted to have photo with me (Gustavo)
I’m so popular here!!! [-;

School didn’t trust us, they don’t think we are nice people, so they better hired guards. Looks like next year there will be army around.

But maybe they knew what they were doing. What would happen without guards if this nice drunk couple would do something unexpected?

Anyway all pictures are as usually here on stromecek.

Málaga

Sunday, April 22nd, 2007

On monday I rushed from Saarbrucken directly to Málaga to visit my cousin Dita. The flight actually was horrible. All the time it was ok, but I have never experienced such steep landing. The pilot went really straight down. We were landing thru mountains – this is not usual direction of landing in Málaga. I experienced many fall downs, and shaking which is not really nice. But the worst was when probably some passenger tried to stand up, and steward shouted to us that we should stay seated, that it’s gonna be dangerous. Well, at this moment, I just imagined what the hell is gonna happen? I was glad to be on the land.

Anyway – all the bad things were already over, and I met with my cousin Dita, and his boyfriend Nat. I have seen lot of things, but what more – I enjoyed doing nothing. And this is important! Sometimes you just have to do nothing. Dunno how to explain it, but you will hopefully understand. When man just can wake up whenever he wants. When I can slowly move out of my bed. When I don’t have to rush anywhere. When everything what I am doing is being done slowly, and without that stress which follows us at home. This is nice face of Spain. Even busy capital Madrid is like that. (Translation for all born in central europe: people don’t care about anything, you just have to wait like idiot everywhere on everything, and it takes ages, people are very slow, buses are going whenever driver wakes up to start the bus, and indeed, there much more!!! [[-; )

Dita and Nat

Nat gave me great guided tour around Málaga center. I have seen all the important things there – old Moorish castle Alcazaba and Gibralfaro. Alcazaba is the older Moorish castle, but because it was not strong enough, they built a new one little bit higher which is called Gibralfaro. Very nice, and very different from Czech castles. The inside part is full of gardens, and places where you can rest. Just have a look at pics.
