RTW: Exchange in Chile

Let's study this weekend?

I cancelled all my weekend travel plans so that I could study, as UAI does not let you off the hook that easily. In most subjects they have a lecture control in every class to make sure everyone has read all the articles. Good thing about that will be that there is no super excitement for the exams.. Plus there is the matter of Statistics, a course I took over three years ago in Finland and at which I was -or am- in need of some serious brush-up.

As one might suspect, studying has not played such a big role after all. The almost four-day weekend that starts every thursday at noon turns easily into an almost four-day party, or so it seems. And to top it all off I got sick with a nasty flu that has kept me in bed for the past day already. Nice thing that movie rentals are cheap here (and yes, I finally saw the Jarhead which other bloggers have been fussing about -and digged it).

Lesson learnt: do not (even try to) study on the weekends. It can be done during the week and the lecture materials I can read in a bus on my way to some new adventures. Oh and also, barbecuing in shorts and a t-shirt in the middle of the night might not be advisable either, as the winter is coming and the freezing, below +10 centigrade -temperatures are just a couple of months away ;) .

Next weekend it's time to break some waves in Pitchilemu!
