Weekend n-6. Pre-Berlin ;)
Unfortunately, nothing exciting this weekend other than the last party at Akua Keta because lessons are officially over for all the Italian students. So they only have exams they can choose to take now, or in September, or in December. Don't you just love the Italian system? Heh. Also because we charmed our professors to give us a 2-day week next week so we could fly off for the ILA in Berlin! *grins* Of course, it's paid for. ;) hey, it *is* a field trip. even though we have to fly there. hehe. Plus. I managed to get my hands on trade day tickets again!! which means, it'll be time yet again to cajole the nice people who are there exhibiting to let me see the inside of the cockpits. ;) You can never sit in an F16 too many times - even though of course, it isn't quite flying. Just being in it will do. Haha. Did I mention it was my favourite plane of all time? ;) Part 1 Part 2 Still can't believe 2 years have gone by so fast since the last time I was there. At the end of the last one, when they said "see you in 2008" I never expected to *really* see them. Coolness. =) Naturally, I managed to arrange it such that I'm extending the trip by another 3 days so i can pop by Munich for a visit. And yes, that's paid for too - although this time it isn't really with the rest of the class. *grins* But it does come at a price. It means an exam on Tuesday, and 2-3 more in the week when I get back from the 3rd - 6th. =( Oh well. No biggie. There's always retakes. *big grin* Again, I love the Italian system, if you don't get the grade you want, you just sit for it again with no penalty whatsoever. ;)
