The week of the "last" is starting and everybody is waiting for his or her turn to go off the leaving list. I am next in my group. Alice left this Tuesday with tears in her eyes. We had a great good-bye party last Saturday for her, we watched Eurovision in an international atmosphere and went to yet another Skojlhodj party...probably the last one for me too. Everybody is getting glued together and we want to do as many things as possible together. We invented an international student's football championship with games every weekend and we even started making our own concerts. I am trying to think about the goods and the not so goods this experience brought in my life and the many lessons I have learned. I hope that by the time I will leave Aarhus I will be able to make a list...and draw some conclusions. Till then...I am enjoying my "last".

ISS Facility Services
About four months ago, in February, I went job haunting with Maketa and managed to find a cleaning job. Now, the semester is ending, we are getting ready to go home and soon work will also finish. Marketa had her last day today, but I still have 2 weeks and a half...I guess I am more hardcore. Even if I can't wait to stop waking up at 4 in the morning from Monday to Friday, I think I will miss it. Our supervisors, Susanne and Henrik are super nice and care about us a lot. They are always open to talking about issues that come up. Henrik enriched my knowledge about the Danish culture, he is very talkative and he comes almost every morning...he's just talking to me and following me...and I don't mind, though it was a bit strange in the beginning. This job made us heroes among my classmates and our friends, because they thought I would quit after 1 month...and to their surprise we kept going...a thing most of them admitted they would not do. Even the people working in that place got used to us, and ask us about school and stuff. I am definitely going to miss it. They promised me to get the job back when I come back in October, but I was thinking and talking yesterday to Marketa, and I think five months of this are enough…I feel a bit like moving on…I don’t know where…but I need something new again…something that would allow me to live on my own and bring me more professional satisfactions. I would not do this for my whole life, I don't know how Susanne and Henrik manage. The pay is good...but it's cleaning.
So...the ISS girls strike every morning in offices, toilets and kitchens :P
