The sun is going down and the birds have gone bananas, singing. So many melodies, all at once. The sounds here. Earlier today, it hailed. We were sitting in the glass veranda, and the pearls of ice hitting the glass ceiling made for such a harmonious soundtrack. The monotony allowing erratic and ambivalent thoughts toContinue reading “#29: Cottage romanticism II (March 31st)”

#28: My new religion (March 31st)
Dries and I skyped with Ashley, sitting in the sunny glass veranda. Ashley was sitting in a hostel kitchen in the Philippines. There are no words for the enormity of a banal conversation like the one we had, across continents and oceans. On Sunday, I had yet another Twin Peaks night with Natalia, Scotland notContinue reading “#28: My new religion (March 31st)”
#27: I drive my friend (March 31st)
It kind of lingered, in the back of my mind, while driving Dries and me down here yesterday. Here I am, moving at incomprehensible speeds, in charge of a vehicle that easily could kill us both in an instant. If handled incorrectly, that is. And I am not a very experienced driver.

People talking about WernerContinue reading “#26: Cottage romanticism (March 30th)”
#25: Workaholics (March 28th)
Spending the Saturday in a computer room in the Geoscience building, trying to make sense of statistics. My life now. At least, I was in good company. Four other laborious souls, trying to make sense of their own result inconsistencies. Elli even brought a picnic.
#24: 80’s party (March 22nd)
The belated birthday party was hosted. Theme: the 1980’s. We had a wonderful mix of neon-colored leggings, leather jackets, dark eye make-up and big hairdos. Madonna, Alphaville and Prince. It is a wonderful thing, to have friends come over and just have a good time. And the party never really ended. Some of the guestsContinue reading “#24: 80’s party (March 22nd)”
#23: (March 20th)
In the sky. Partial solar eclipse. Anti-climax.
#22: I <3 Leslie
Leslie Knope and I – two peas in a pod.
#21: Spring at Kräftriket (March 19th)
#20: Possession (March 18th)
This thesis has taken over my life. I live it. I sleep it. I breathe it. But at least some of the indices that I create as part of the process are pretty to look at. A Tasseled Cap Transformation of the Landsat 8 OLI scene over my study area in early October last year.
