Sunday, 23.11.2003
Although Bernhard and I arrived at my home at 3.30am last night, we got up at about 11am today. Then we had breakfast and get dressed. Between breakfast and lunch we played computer games and talked. Then we had lunch. After that we played computer games again, later I wrote the text for my Blog of Saturday and he played alone. At about 4pm I drove Bernhard home. At home I later talked to João. First it was very nice but later I had to talk to him about the doubts in the relationship I have to my girlfriend. I don’t think we are a couple for a long time, but I can’t split of her before next Saturday, because she has her Matura-dance there. Later my girlfriend called me, first only to tell me that my father doesn’t have to film her Matura-dance, because they have some professional. But then she asked me why I was so down on Saturday. She thought I was only tired… she hasn’t understood anything, and that’s the thing that makes me so disappointed. When we finished our call (I haven’t said much) I was still talking to João. He said so many good things (Thanks for that one more time). I cried a bit, but I don’t know why… normally I am not so sensitive.

Today I felt not fine in the morning (and also not yesterday evening). I had a headache and felt sick, so I nearly ate nothing. Then I decided that it would be better to stay at home and went back to bed. I got up around noon again and felt really better. In the afternoon my sister’s best friend Tatjana came round, because they wanted to do homework. I helped them a bit, but there was no time to play some game… very sad! Later I told my sister that I have her birthday present already, because I knew that she is very curios and will ask about it for a long time… and so it really happened. Then I had a too long talk to João and later went to bed.
Tuesday, 25.11.2003
I was quite tired in the morning, but it was okay… university was not interesting and I only stayed there for the mathematics lesson, then I went to Graz. I posted the letter I’d written at university there, the letter was for Ellen from the Netherlands. There I wanted to find someone to talk at university and looked for Iris, the girl who donates blood plasma with Tanja and me. But unfortunately she was not here, so I waited for the end of Tanja’s lesson. We spent the whole afternoon together, we first went donating blood plasma (I was so in fear, because there was this really young guy and his hands shook a lot before he pricked the needle in my vein. It hurt a bit more than usual, but I am used to it already, so it was not too bad). Tanja was so fast this time, so she had to wait for a long time until I was ready. I showed her my Blog (there is a computer at the PDC) and so she will, I hope, also start to post comments here… but now I can’t tell all my secrets anymore and my secret fantasies… ;-) We went back to university and went around the campus then, we had nothing to do (her lesson was cancelled, we thought her teacher was maybe poisoned by bad tobacco). We met Iris then (she wasn’t with us because she is ill a bit) and went with her in the centre of Graz. There she went to another place to meet her father and Tanja and I wanted to find a shop where she could buy a T-shirt with Che Guevara on the front side. Unfortunately there were no shirts in her size (she is pretty small), so we went back to uni and stayed there until her lesson started. We talked and laughed and I looked through her Latin homework (I am supposed to can Latin…). When her lesson started at 6pm, I went to train station and then back to Leibnitz. At home I thought I should maybe phone Tina, but I hadn’t know what I should tell her, so I didn’t do it and went online instead. I started my new friends Blog, but it is not finished already. Then I watched TV a bit and went to bed.
Wednesday, 26.11.2003
Today I was again very tired (maybe I should go to bed earlier…), so the lessons were too long. In train I started to translate all my Blog-texts, because there is this girl who is too lazy to read the Blog in English (I don’t want to say names; this is not nice, right, Tanja?). After the lessons I wrote a letter to Ieva from Lithuania. Then I went to post office to buy stamps and post the letter. Back at university I continued translating my Blog until my battery was empty. Then I had exercises in Using PCs and Programming. This was very boring!! We did nothing new today, only talked about stuff we learned before. So I played a bit with Java.
Then I went back home, I slept in train a lot (what a shock, I awoke and nobody was in my compartment). At home I ate and then talked to my mother. I am afraid she won’t buy me a ticket to Brasília for Christmas, so I have to wait for my lottery-win. I indeed won this time, but I had only 3-right, so I won 3,30€, now I got 47% of what I have spent for the lottery… this is not bad… Then my mother asked me about my relationship to Tina. Wow, she is so sensitive and intelligent, she knew that something wasn’t right. Well, she thought that we have no relationship anymore, but that’s not completely true. But I know now, what is wrong (so my little thoughts had success): I am not interested in this relationship anymore. I don’t feel the pleasure when I see her, I felt before. I don’t think being with her is the ideal occupation like before. I don’t think that she is the one I can talk to best like before. So I will tell her that, I can “play” her boyfriend for a longer time, but I don’t think this is good for her and me.
Thursday, 27.11.2003
On Thursday I visited university for three lessons and then I went to Graz, where I met my friend Magda. All day I translated my Blog. At uni I also met Tanja, she skipped a lesson and went shopping. Then I met Magda and we went two a Chinese restaurant. Today we had so much time to eat (last time we were late), so we had to wait at the train station for a long time. But then I had to search for a place in the train for such a long time, and I found no good place. Then I met Nadine and Florian because we had some pages for each other.
Then I had my Japanese lesson. First I wrote the Hiragana-test I missed last week (I had 47 of 47 possible points and also could write the Kanji for Nihongo there) and then we learned a lot. The grammar is no problem for me, but the vocabulary is really hard, because there is nothing similar to German, English or Latin… So this is quite hard. Then my teacher and I went back to Graz. We talked a bit and she gave me an old guide for Germany in Japanese as a present (but nobody else should know it!). I was at home at 9pm, there a letter of João waited for me. This letter was so nice, but it made me really sad, because I am afraid I can’t visit him soon. Then I phoned Tina because I wanted to know the news about her Matura-dance on Saturday. I was too nice to her, I think, but this is normal… I can’t be bad, especially because her dance is on Saturday.
Friday, 28.11.2003
Today I had to wear my suit to go to Leoben, because today there was an admission-celebration. I was really tired, so this was really hard. I was so happy when I could go to train station again and go back to Graz. There I had to wait a bit and then went to Leibnitz. At home I had lunch and then went to bed. I was really tired. After sleeping I did not much, it was quite boring… Later I watched TV and played computer games. I went to bed again at 2.30am.
Saturday, 29.11.2003
Today I slept long. At noon I got up and watched TV a bit. Then I had a shower and then we had lunch. Tatjana also was here. After lunch we watched “Finding Nemo” again. We just finished watching and then suddenly João phoned me. What a shock! He told me he would phone me on Sunday so I really wasn’t prepared… We talked a bit, also Birgit talked to “Johann”. He asked me to come to ICQ then. At 5pm, I was still talking to João Bernhard came here. We four talked to João then. At about 6.30pm we went offline, because we wanted to be at the Matura-dance at 7pm. First we ate a bit, then we get dressed and then my father took us to the dance. There we worked at the station, where you can get prices for lottery tickets, from 7.15pm to 10pm. It was very funny, we had to do a lot later. Then we drank something, because working makes thirsty. We danced a lot then; I danced with Tina, Magda, Eva and my sister Birgit. It was very nice. But only Tanja, who was also with us, doesn’t want to dance a single time. Maybe she hates us and doesn’t want to touch us…
Then there was the Midnight-Interlude. First it was really bad, but in the end it became better. In the end some pupils of the class played and sang, and they were really good! They should play more often! Bernhard and I were next to the stage and there were so many people there dancing!
After the Midnight-Interlude we danced to the band again. It was very funny, but Tanja still didn’t want to dance. She was so mean! At 2.30am the band quit to play and so we went into the disco and danced there. It was so funny, and I was named “God-like” then… well, and also “Cowboy”… maybe I shouldn’t shook my hands so much. But this is my style to dance and I don’t change it for them! At about 3.45am we wanted to go (there was only Magda, Bernhard, Birgit and I left), but we first had to say “Good-bye” to the nice organizers. We were at home at about 4.15am and went to bed then.
Although Bernhard and I arrived at my home at 3.30am last night, we got up at about 11am today. Then we had breakfast and get dressed. Between breakfast and lunch we played computer games and talked.

Sunday, 16.11.2003
This Sunday Magda and I slept at Bernhard’s house. We came home at half past four I think and went to bed then. At about 1pm we got up again and had “brunch”. Then we played cards and another game. I was supposed to visit my girlfriend Tina today and I thought after the game we will leave Bernhard and go home. It was about 2.30pm when I thought that… we have finished the game about three hours later… Then I called my father to take Magda and me home, I drove to Magda’s house and then to my. Because it was 6.30pm then I didn’t want to meet my girlfriend anymore so I just called her. She was “not very happy” that I haven’t visited her. In the evening I had another nice chat with João (I don’t need to write “nice” I think… all our chats are nice…). Was Daniela also there? I can’t remember, she was there the last chats so often, so I don’t remember if she was there this day.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY GITSCHI!!
Monday as usual… not good! I was quite tired, but it was okay, I hadn’t much to do… Train was late in the morning… this was very strange… I was in train, we went off from Graz and then, after five minutes or so we stopped and around 30 minutes later we went on again… this was very strange. So I had no good place in the auditorium, but after the first lesson many people went, so I got a better place then.
In the afternoon I had mathematic exercises and this is very funny every time, because I found a very nice girl at university called Nadine, who sits often next to me in lessons and we talked much and it was quite funny.
The rest of the day was not so interesting, but then I had another nice chat with João and Danona was there also. I love you two! Let’s never loose contact!!
Tuesday, 18.11.2003
I was so tired today, it was really hard! I nearly slept in train and this is not good, because if I sleep in train and miss Leoben, I go by train until Salzburg, if I sleep very long… this would be a problem then… but I haven’t slept, so this was no problem this time.
I only stayed at university for the mathematics lesson, then I went back to Graz where I met my friends Tanja and Magda (argh, I should make a friends-Blog…) at the train station. We went to University of Graz by tram/streetcar, because Magda had a lesson. Tanja and I waited with another girl called Iris until half past 1pm, then we went to the Plasma Donating Centre (I call it PDC from now on) to donate our plasma. This time wasn’t so good as usual; it hurt and needed quite a long time. After my donation I went back to train station and from there to Leibnitz. It was about 5pm when I arrived at home and then I went to my girlfriend. We talked and watched TV and other stuff… I was back at about 9pm.
Wednesday, 19.11.2003
Today was okay. First I had mathematics lesson and then physics. Before maths I started to write a letter to João, I continued it during the physic lesson. After physics I had off for four hours. I first went a bit through Leoben because I wanted to buy new headphones, but they were too expensive. So I went back to university and continued João’s letter. I haven’t finished it the whole day. Later I had exercises in Using PCs and Programming, this was okay and then I went back to Leibnitz. There I had a super-nice chat with João and Danona, we talked about so many things… very interesting… ;-) We talked for about one-and-a-half hours and then I went to bed.
Thursday, 20.11.2003
This was a strange day… University was not very interesting. Then I went to the house where Nadine is living with her boyfriend (and many other students), because I needed something from her. I knocked at their door, but nobody opened so I thought they were not here. This was strange a bit, because we met in the morning and I told them that I will be there at about that time. But I thought they are maybe shopping or so and wanted to call Nadine on her mobile, but of course the battery of my mobile was empty… (is this only so with my mobile or are other mobiles also empty when you need them really?) So I waited a bit and thought maybe I should try a second time and knocked again. Of course they were at home, but they slept… Florian, Nadine’s boyfriend copied some pages for me then and we talked a bit and I saw the rats of them. Then I had to leave because I wanted to go to Graz by train. At Graz I first bought headphones and a CD called “Japan” (it was cheap, so I thought, why not). The CD is quite okay… Then I went to university and there I finished the letter for João (I also wrote in the morning…) and met my friends Tanja and Magda.
We went to a Chinese restaurant then. It was very good, but I forgot to look at my watch so we finished eight minutes before my train should go. Of course there was no bus at this time so I ran to the train station. Normally you need about five minutes by bus… I needed ten minutes by feet, but I wasn’t fast enough, so I missed the train. But there was another train in the same direction, but this was slower, but I took it. Because of this silly train I came late to my Japanese class… and I missed the ひらがな-test… but the class was okay.
After class I went back to Graz with my teacher (her name is, by the way, ソーハー かおりさん). We played a bit with a Linux-version called Knoppix. This is a Japanese version and you can write in Japanese characters there. I love to play with that… all this nice Kanji… now I have to learn them. I think I am the favourite student of ソーハーサン, because she gave me the next lesson in train and the other students get it only next week!
I arrived at home at about 9pm. About ten minutes later my girlfriend was calling me and we talked for about one-and-a-half hour… then it was late and I had to go to bed (actually I was lying in bed when I talked to her…)
Friday, 21.11.2003
I was so tired today, and tiredness and going by train is no good mixture… But I awaked just two minutes before I was at Leoben… what luck! I only had physic exercises today and I had nothing to do there… I talked with other students and this was quite funny. There is a new show now on TV called “The Bachelor” (by the way, Bachelor is also my title if I finish university… but here it was used in another way, as single man). This bachelor lives now for some weeks in a villa together with 25 women and he has to decide the best one for him and they will maybe marry. I haven’t watched this show, I talked to João and Puddy (=Danona) this time, but others saw it and they talked about it… as long as I understood them it was really bad! Then I went back to Graz. I was alone in a compartment of the train and so I had much space to lie. Actually I slept there, because when a woman came into my compartment to tell me that I should go off the train, because we were at Graz, I awoke. So I was very tired.
At home (~1pm) a letter from Sara from Minneapolis arrived and it was very nice. I try to tell all my pen pals of my Blog now, so she will maybe also come round some day. In the afternoon Tatjana, my sister’s best friend visited us and we played a game. I haven’t seen Tatjana since two weeks I think, although she is living about 20 meters away from my house… Then I nearly slept at my sister’s bed while she was reading and then I watched TV and surfed the net a bit. Unfortunately João wasn’t online, and also Gitschi (=Sauron) only for a short time, so I had nobody to talk with.
Saturday, 22.11.2003
Today I slept longer and then I tidied up my room a bit, because in the afternoon my friend Bernhard visited me because we wanted to go out in the evening. I drove to him at about 4pm to take him to my home. Before I drove to Großklein I played in the lottery, because there is a double-Jackpot tomorrow. Then we went shopping a bit. At my home we played computer games and he helped me to start my description of my friends. Then went to the Cultural Centre of Leibnitz where the Matura-dance of one of our old school’s forms.
Let me tell you more about Matura-dances: In the last form of higher schools there is a final exam called Matura. And in fall/winter before the Matura every form (sometimes two together) gives a Matura-dance. Normally Matura-dances in Leibnitz have the same system: Admission is at 7.30pm and at about 8.30pm there is the Polonaise, the opening dance. After the Polonaise the class teacher makes a speech and then the director of the school opens the dance officially. After this you can do what you like, a band plays, usually there is also a disco and there are some bars where you can drink something. At midnight there is the Midnight-Interlude. There the pupils of the form perform dances or sing songs and such things. And after the Midnight-Interlude you can do what you like again and many people go after this.
Yesterday there was the dance of my girlfriend’s neighbour class (their dance is next Saturday). The dance had the motto “Grenzenlos” (German for unlimited). Bernhard and I went there at about 8.20pm, and then we were allowed to sit on one of the teacher’s tables to see the Polonaise. The Polonaise was quite good, but our Polonaise last year was better (our dance, “4 Jahreszeiten” [4 seasons], was on 23/11/02), other people said. After the Polonaise Bernhard and I went to see our friends Eva and Tanja who where working at the station where you could get prices for lottery tickets. Then we visited Tina who was supposed to work at the “Tequila Bar”, but she actually hasn’t worked a lot.
We drank two Tequilas and one Malibu Orange there, and then we talked to teachers and other pupils of our former form. Later we went around with Tanja and Eva and talked and drank. Tina was very drunk, so she was quite silly. Then Eva met her boyfriend, Tanja and Tina went away alone, so Bernhard and I were alone. We talked to our last year’s class teacher and then there was the Midnight-Interlude. This one was not so good… For example they talked about the kingdom of Mao Tsetung (they had a little world trip, where they played different songs and some girls danced to this song then) and played the Japanese Ranma 1/2 theme song…
After the Midnight-Interlude Bernhard and I went to other clubs in Leibnitz because we wanted to see something else. We met my sister in one of these clubs and stayed with her until 2am, then my mother took her home. Bernhard and I went back to the dance. There were not much people there left. We went to the disco and danced there. It wasn’t very nice… but I can’t describe this here. Bernhard and I went home at about 3.30am.
This Sunday Magda and I slept at Bernhard’s house. We came home at half past four I think and went to bed then. At about 1pm we got up again and had “brunch”. Then we played cards and another game. I was supposed to visit my girlfriend Tina today and I thought after the game we will leave Bernhard and go home. It was about 2.30pm when I thought that… we have finished the game about three hours later… Then I called my father to take Magda and me home, I drove to Magda’s house and then to my. Because it was 6.30pm then I didn’t want to meet my girlfriend anymore so I just called her. She was “not very happy” that I haven’t visited her. In the evening I had another nice chat with João (I don’t need to write “nice” I think… all our chats are nice…). Was Daniela also there? I can’t remember, she was there the last chats so often, so I don’t remember if she was there this day.

I was so tired today, it was really hard! I nearly slept in train and this is not good, because if I sleep in train and miss Leoben, I go by train until Salzburg, if I sleep very long… this would be a problem then… but I haven’t slept, so this was no problem this time.
I only stayed at university for the mathematics lesson, then I went back to Graz where I met my friends Tanja and Magda (argh, I should make a friends-Blog…) at the train station. We went to University of Graz by tram/streetcar, because Magda had a lesson. Tanja and I waited with another girl called Iris until half past 1pm, then we went to the Plasma Donating Centre (I call it PDC from now on) to donate our plasma. This time wasn’t so good as usual; it hurt and needed quite a long time. After my donation I went back to train station and from there to Leibnitz. It was about 5pm when I arrived at home and then I went to my girlfriend. We talked and watched TV and other stuff… I was back at about 9pm.
Wednesday, 19.11.2003
Today was okay. First I had mathematics lesson and then physics. Before maths I started to write a letter to João, I continued it during the physic lesson. After physics I had off for four hours. I first went a bit through Leoben because I wanted to buy new headphones, but they were too expensive. So I went back to university and continued João’s letter. I haven’t finished it the whole day. Later I had exercises in Using PCs and Programming, this was okay and then I went back to Leibnitz. There I had a super-nice chat with João and Danona, we talked about so many things… very interesting… ;-) We talked for about one-and-a-half hours and then I went to bed.
Thursday, 20.11.2003
This was a strange day… University was not very interesting. Then I went to the house where Nadine is living with her boyfriend (and many other students), because I needed something from her. I knocked at their door, but nobody opened so I thought they were not here. This was strange a bit, because we met in the morning and I told them that I will be there at about that time. But I thought they are maybe shopping or so and wanted to call Nadine on her mobile, but of course the battery of my mobile was empty… (is this only so with my mobile or are other mobiles also empty when you need them really?) So I waited a bit and thought maybe I should try a second time and knocked again. Of course they were at home, but they slept… Florian, Nadine’s boyfriend copied some pages for me then and we talked a bit and I saw the rats of them. Then I had to leave because I wanted to go to Graz by train. At Graz I first bought headphones and a CD called “Japan” (it was cheap, so I thought, why not). The CD is quite okay… Then I went to university and there I finished the letter for João (I also wrote in the morning…) and met my friends Tanja and Magda.
We went to a Chinese restaurant then. It was very good, but I forgot to look at my watch so we finished eight minutes before my train should go. Of course there was no bus at this time so I ran to the train station. Normally you need about five minutes by bus… I needed ten minutes by feet, but I wasn’t fast enough, so I missed the train. But there was another train in the same direction, but this was slower, but I took it. Because of this silly train I came late to my Japanese class… and I missed the ひらがな-test… but the class was okay.
After class I went back to Graz with my teacher (her name is, by the way, ソーハー かおりさん). We played a bit with a Linux-version called Knoppix. This is a Japanese version and you can write in Japanese characters there. I love to play with that… all this nice Kanji… now I have to learn them. I think I am the favourite student of ソーハーサン, because she gave me the next lesson in train and the other students get it only next week!
I arrived at home at about 9pm. About ten minutes later my girlfriend was calling me and we talked for about one-and-a-half hour… then it was late and I had to go to bed (actually I was lying in bed when I talked to her…)
Friday, 21.11.2003
I was so tired today, and tiredness and going by train is no good mixture… But I awaked just two minutes before I was at Leoben… what luck! I only had physic exercises today and I had nothing to do there… I talked with other students and this was quite funny. There is a new show now on TV called “The Bachelor” (by the way, Bachelor is also my title if I finish university… but here it was used in another way, as single man). This bachelor lives now for some weeks in a villa together with 25 women and he has to decide the best one for him and they will maybe marry. I haven’t watched this show, I talked to João and Puddy (=Danona) this time, but others saw it and they talked about it… as long as I understood them it was really bad! Then I went back to Graz. I was alone in a compartment of the train and so I had much space to lie. Actually I slept there, because when a woman came into my compartment to tell me that I should go off the train, because we were at Graz, I awoke. So I was very tired.
At home (~1pm) a letter from Sara from Minneapolis arrived and it was very nice. I try to tell all my pen pals of my Blog now, so she will maybe also come round some day. In the afternoon Tatjana, my sister’s best friend visited us and we played a game. I haven’t seen Tatjana since two weeks I think, although she is living about 20 meters away from my house… Then I nearly slept at my sister’s bed while she was reading and then I watched TV and surfed the net a bit. Unfortunately João wasn’t online, and also Gitschi (=Sauron) only for a short time, so I had nobody to talk with.
Saturday, 22.11.2003
Today I slept longer and then I tidied up my room a bit, because in the afternoon my friend Bernhard visited me because we wanted to go out in the evening. I drove to him at about 4pm to take him to my home. Before I drove to Großklein I played in the lottery, because there is a double-Jackpot tomorrow. Then we went shopping a bit. At my home we played computer games and he helped me to start my description of my friends. Then went to the Cultural Centre of Leibnitz where the Matura-dance of one of our old school’s forms.
Let me tell you more about Matura-dances: In the last form of higher schools there is a final exam called Matura. And in fall/winter before the Matura every form (sometimes two together) gives a Matura-dance. Normally Matura-dances in Leibnitz have the same system: Admission is at 7.30pm and at about 8.30pm there is the Polonaise, the opening dance. After the Polonaise the class teacher makes a speech and then the director of the school opens the dance officially. After this you can do what you like, a band plays, usually there is also a disco and there are some bars where you can drink something. At midnight there is the Midnight-Interlude. There the pupils of the form perform dances or sing songs and such things. And after the Midnight-Interlude you can do what you like again and many people go after this.
Yesterday there was the dance of my girlfriend’s neighbour class (their dance is next Saturday). The dance had the motto “Grenzenlos” (German for unlimited). Bernhard and I went there at about 8.20pm, and then we were allowed to sit on one of the teacher’s tables to see the Polonaise. The Polonaise was quite good, but our Polonaise last year was better (our dance, “4 Jahreszeiten” [4 seasons], was on 23/11/02), other people said. After the Polonaise Bernhard and I went to see our friends Eva and Tanja who where working at the station where you could get prices for lottery tickets. Then we visited Tina who was supposed to work at the “Tequila Bar”, but she actually hasn’t worked a lot.
We drank two Tequilas and one Malibu Orange there, and then we talked to teachers and other pupils of our former form. Later we went around with Tanja and Eva and talked and drank. Tina was very drunk, so she was quite silly. Then Eva met her boyfriend, Tanja and Tina went away alone, so Bernhard and I were alone. We talked to our last year’s class teacher and then there was the Midnight-Interlude. This one was not so good… For example they talked about the kingdom of Mao Tsetung (they had a little world trip, where they played different songs and some girls danced to this song then) and played the Japanese Ranma 1/2 theme song…
After the Midnight-Interlude Bernhard and I went to other clubs in Leibnitz because we wanted to see something else. We met my sister in one of these clubs and stayed with her until 2am, then my mother took her home. Bernhard and I went back to the dance. There were not much people there left. We went to the disco and danced there. It wasn’t very nice… but I can’t describe this here. Bernhard and I went home at about 3.30am.

Sunday, 9.11.2003
Last night I slept at my sister’s bed and she also. We read a book together until we fell asleep. It was a very uncomfortable night; we are both too big for a single bed. And so I got up early this morning. The whole day I did not much, only watched TV, reloaded my Blog and had a chat with João. Then I went to the local cinema to watch Kill Bill Vol. 1 together with my friend Magda. It was so great (I thought), I never saw a bloodier movie before, but the story was good and the actors and actresses too. I will tell more about the movie on another page. After the movie I went back home, where I did not more than go to bed and sleep.
Monday, 10.11.2003
This Monday wasn’t too bad; I wasn’t so tired, maybe because I slept not so good the night before (from Saturday to Sunday). But in the morning I haven’t found my gloves, so I had to go to train station by bike without them… brr, my hands were so cold (it has about 5°C at 5.30am when I go)! At university there wasn’t much interesting to learn today, but in Mathematics exercises the teacher asked me to work out one of the home exercises (this is so usually: we get the home work a week before we have to have them and then we write into a list which exercises we are able to do and which not. And then one student has to do one of the exercises on the blackboard.). I like Math, because I understand most of it and so I could do the exercise without any problem.
At home I prepared my new movie Blog (Triple M – Mario’s Movie Mixture). Has anybody recognized the name? Triple M – Triple X? I don’t know why, but I use many movie-titles now… ^^ Unfortunately João was not online (or better, he was, but hasn’t come to ICQ… maybe he wasn’t at home), so I couldn’t talk to him.

START OF THE CARNIVAL-SEASON (I don’t like Carnival!)
Today I only visited the Mathematics lessons, because I thought maybe the train labour union will go on strike again and so I went to Graz earlier than normal. Then I walked to the University of Graz, where I wanted to meet my friend Tanja. Normally I go there by bus, this takes about 15 minutes, but today I had enough time to walk. At the university I did a bit of homework and waited for Tanja, who had a lesson. After her lesson we went to the Blood Plasma Donating Centre and donated our plasma. When I had finished my donate I went back home because I wanted to learn for a test I had the next day. But I was so tired so I haven’t learned but phoned my girlfriend and talked to her about an hour. Then I wasn’t tired anymore, but I watched TV then, Friends and Scrubs, two American series. I went to bed the next day, because I knew that I won’t go to university the next day.
Wednesday, 12.11.2003
Since midnight the train labour union were on strike so today I only went to university in the afternoon, because I had a test in Using PCs and Programming. I wanted to learn in the morning for it, but I slept until 12.30pm, so I couldn’t learn much, because we went to Leoben by car at 3.30pm. The test was not too hard but I needed long time until I found my mistake. After the test we went back home (we = my father, my sister and I). At home I had a nice chat with João and added pictures to my movie Blog.
Thursday, 13.11.2003
The train labour union was still on strike so my father and I went to Leoben by car in the morning. It was snowing a bit, but only for a short time… :( My father drove back home and I stayed at Leoben the whole day. The lessons were quite boring, because I had nobody to talk with. After the first four lessons I went to a Chinese restaurant for lunch. Chinese restaurants are compared to other restaurants very cheap in Austria. I have only paid € 5,60 for soup, main course and something to drink. In an average Austrian restaurant I would have paid about € 10,00 for this.
After lunch I went back to university where I tried to do a bit of homework and wrote two letters to Andrea and Debi. Then I had a lesson from 4pm to 5.45pm, so I missed the beginning of my Japanese lesson, but I had to go to the first lesson. Then I went to Japanese lesson. Today I got my Japanese book, but only the grammar and vocabulary addition and not the main book. My Japanese book is called Minna no Nihongo (みんなの日本語). After the lesson my teacher asked me if we can take her with us back to Graz. But I prefer to go back to Graz with her by train, this is better. At home I had another nice chat with João.
Friday, 14.11.2003
Today I had only exercises in Physics at university, but because the train labour union was still on strike I had to go to Leoben one more time by car. My new university friend Nadine was not here, so it was a bit boring… I had to do one of the exercises on the blackboard, and, what luck, it was the only one I could do without problems. At home I was so tired so I slept a bit and then my parents and I went to a sport-shop called Überbacher, where we bought new skiing trousers for me. Then I went to the cinema where I watched The Matrix Revolutions with my friends Magdalena and Tanja. The movie was, hmm, hard to describe… it was sometimes boring but then it was good… there were too less scenes in the Matrix, I prefer such scenes more… the first Matrix was better, of course, but the second can’t be compared to it… so I can’t say which one was better… more about it will come on my movie Blog.
Saturday, 15.11.2003
Today I slept long and in the afternoon I went to my friend Bernhard with Magda. First we played cards and then we watched The One with Jet Li on DVD. Then we went to a feast called Martinikränzchen. Martini means St. Martin, and a Kränzchen means little circle or so… well, it was like a party with a disco and a hall, where a band played and (older) people could sit and drink and dance etc. The disco was quite okay, we were there most of the time and danced and drank Eristoff Ice (is this known anywhere else?). Then we went for a walk but it was so cold, so we returned soon. We went there about 10pm on Saturday and were back home about 3.30am (or was it 4.30am? I can’t remember anymore… but not because I was drunk!!).
Last night I slept at my sister’s bed and she also. We read a book together until we fell asleep. It was a very uncomfortable night; we are both too big for a single bed.

Sunday, November 09, 2003
So, now I reloaded my Blog and from now on it’s name is MIB (Mario’s Information Blog) and I will write weekly about the days before. I am going to post new information about my days every Sunday, so come back every Sunday to read the latest stories about me and Austria, if you are interested in. Have fun!
Sunday, 2.11.2003
Last Sunday I slept until noon, because on Saturday evening I went out with friends and my girlfriend to drink a Pina Colada (is this known everywhere?). Here you can see a photo from Saturday:
Actually I wanted to go to the cinema in the evening and watch Kill Bill Vol. 1, but both of my friends I wrote messages to, haven’t answered them. Bad guys, I think... So I did nothing the whole day, maybe wrote a letter or so... nothing important. Only in the evening it was better, because I had a nice chat with João and I looked how much a flight to Brasíl is, because if I will get about € 2000 until Christmas, I want to go to visit my friend João then!
Monday, 3.11.2003
Monday is the worst day of every week, because I am normally too tired every morning. This is because I can’t sleep on Sunday evenings because I slept long on Sunday mornings. So I was very tired (I have to get up at 4.30am every morning...) while going to university and there also. I think I got not everything what the professors where telling, but I had no interesting lessons. In the afternoon I had Math exercises. I have exercises in Math, Physics and Programming. I prefer Math to Physics, because I am better in Math (I like it, when I can help people and don’t have to been helped.). Then I went back home by train (like every day). I arrived back at about half past seven, so I haven’t seen Leibnitz without darkness the whole day, because it is still night when I go to train station in the morning at 5.30am.
This day I got a letter from João, I was very glad about it, because there were two nice manga in it, the first volumes of Yu Yu Hakusho by Togashi Yoshihiro and Ribon no Kishi by Tezuka Ozuma. YYH is good I think, it is very funny, but I haven’t understand RnK... my Portuguese is too bad... and then I had a chat with João to thank him for the letter and more.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOÃO!
Today the Austrian train labor union were on strike until 12am, so I don’t went to Leoben to university today and stayed at home. At 1.30pm I went to Graz to go to the Blood Plasm Donating Centre to donate my blood plasm. I get € 20 every time I go there and donate blood plasm, so I normally go there every Tuesday togethere with my friend Tanja. Then Tanja had a lesson and so I met another friend of mine, Magdalena. Magda and I went to “our” comic shop to look for new manga (I bought Tôkyô Mew Mew volume 3) and then we went to her car and she drove me home. In the evening I send a greeting card to João and then phoned my girlfriend Tina.
Wednesday, 5.11.2003
Wednesday is my second longest day at university and the one I like least. I was so tired the whole day. First I had four hours of lessons, then four hours free and then two hours of exercises. In the four free hours I went to a Chinese restaurant in Leoben. I love Chinese dishes! Then I went for a walk in Leoben to buy some things and then went back to university where I tried to do my Physics home exercises, but I think I am too silly for Physics and I really don’t like it. I never liked Physics in school and so I never learned it really... and now I can’t understand anything in lessons...
When I came back in the evening I had a chat with João and went to bed early.
Thursday, 6.11.2003
Thursday is the longest university day of the week and I like this one most! I only had two hours of lessons (two lessons took not place), so I went to Graz. At Graz I looked through some shops but I bought nothing and then I went to a Chinese restaurant because Chinese dishes are so good! Then I still went to some shops and then to my favorite comic shop at Graz. I bought Ayashi no Ceres volume 3 and Tenchi Muyo! volume 1 there. Then I went back to Leoben because I had my Japanese lesson there. And because of this, Thursday is my favorite day of the week! After the lesson I went back to Graz with my Japanese teacher like every Thursday. We talked about the lessons and Japan and about manga. I showed her German manga and manga-magazines. When I was at home I watched the first Wok World Championsship. Does everybody know, what a Wok is? This is a big, spheric pot used from Chinese cooks most. The competitors sat in the Wok and went down a bob run. This was very funny!
Friday, 7.11.2003
Friday I only have exercises in Physics. But as you know, I don’t like Physics, so this made it not better. Well, it was okay, because I found a nice girl to take with in exercises, so we had fun while talking during the exercises. I arrived back at home at 1pm. At 2.30pm I went to the city to meet my friends Bernhard and Tanja there. We walked around in Leibnitz (it was cold, brrr) and then we decided to walk to McDonalds. But McDonalds is about half an hour away, so we went to my home and took our car to go to McDonalds. Then we went back to Leibnitz (McDonalds is outside of Leibnitz) where we met Eva, another friend. But we seperated a few time later and I drove Bernhard back to his home. I stayed there for an hour or so and played cards and then I went back home.
Saturday, 8.11.2003
I slept until noon today and after lunch I drove to my girlfriend and took her to my house. We went for a walk and then we watched Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. I love this movie, one of my favorite movies. And after that...
In the evening I drove her to the city because she went out with her friends. Back at home I wanted to go online because I wan’t online since Wednesday, but then my sister interrupted me and we started to talk about satires upon Lord of the Rings. We want to write our own one... I think it will be very perverted... If we can finish this project, I will present it here!
Okay, this was all about last week, I hope some people read this and will be back next Sunday!

After the lesson I went back to Graz with my Japanese teacher like every Thursday. We talked about the lessons and Japan and about manga. I showed her German manga and manga-magazines. When I was at home I watched the first Wok World Championsship. Does everybody know, what a Wok is? This is a big, spheric pot used from Chinese cooks most. The competitors sat in the Wok and went down a bob run. This was very funny!

Friday I only have exercises in Physics. But as you know, I don’t like Physics, so this made it not better. Well, it was okay, because I found a nice girl to take with in exercises, so we had fun while talking during the exercises. I arrived back at home at 1pm. At 2.30pm I went to the city to meet my friends Bernhard and Tanja there. We walked around in Leibnitz (it was cold, brrr) and then we decided to walk to McDonalds. But McDonalds is about half an hour away, so we went to my home and took our car to go to McDonalds. Then we went back to Leibnitz (McDonalds is outside of Leibnitz) where we met Eva, another friend. But we seperated a few time later and I drove Bernhard back to his home. I stayed there for an hour or so and played cards and then I went back home.

I slept until noon today and after lunch I drove to my girlfriend and took her to my house. We went for a walk and then we watched Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. I love this movie, one of my favorite movies. And after that...
In the evening I drove her to the city because she went out with her friends. Back at home I wanted to go online because I wan’t online since Wednesday, but then my sister interrupted me and we started to talk about satires upon Lord of the Rings. We want to write our own one... I think it will be very perverted... If we can finish this project, I will present it here!
Okay, this was all about last week, I hope some people read this and will be back next Sunday!
