Green Day – American Idiot

Just a view words to their latest album:

I like it.

It is their typically Green Day style of fast beats, distorted guitar chords and front voice, which makes it easy to recognise their music. The ones who loved older songs will (most probably) also love the new ones. My favourites are American Idiot, Holiday, Boulevard of Broken Dreams (although it's always in the radio!), but also the slower ballades Give me Novacaine and Wake me up when September ends (-> that would be now! ;-) ) are not bad. So, if you have some pounds too much, buy it.

New week, new chance

I finally have collected all necessary signatures of the professors and lecturers of the modules I want to attend. That process took me about a week now… As annoying it might be to run from office to office, it also has its good sides: Most profs take their time to get to know their students. They are (or at least pretend to be) interested and friendly. That really impressed me! OK, there are also nice profs in Germany, but compared to here, the ratio (nice prof to ***hole) is definitely worse…
Besides having completed my examination registration form, I had another course today (my third one), signed up for the sports union (quite expensive though), was running in the morning (or 'jogging', only for 20mins on my usual tour), had a delicious meal (rice, chicken and a sauce with an unrememberable name from Tesco) and did nothing for my courses… However, that WILL CHANGE! At least, it will have to change.

Btw: I had a nice weekend – Silvi was here and I could show her our cool campus. Yesterday, we visited the chaplaincy and joined the lunch afterwards. I liked both.
