July 25...
home alone after a serious concentration of Sigur Ros discography, some dark prose from Lovecraft, a grey sky... and it all got me down...after three days...
if i stayed home i totally would have committed suicided...
so i thought of going for a beer in town with some friends... but then got lazy...
i finally called JP... asking if i could crash at his place...
so the man asked me to stay at home till 7... and he'll pick me up via taxi...
packed mah bag... waited and at 7
i saw 6 blokes in front of my gate... singing Happy Birthday to me...
hell yes it was a surprise!
they organized everything... mostly orchestred by Tania!!
so they came over with cake, Vodka, snacks, soda, beer, bread, ham
for like 2 minutes i thought i was dreaming!
hahaha! funny stuff
the guys didn't leave me behind!
we had some drinks, nice convo, the cake was absoFUCKINGlutely yummy!
had a thrash metal session with Stephane, Nicolas, and Roger singing some along some Sepultura... with Ronnie having a teddy bear headbanging! :)
Tania had to leave early because of work...
JP has been to bed for he was tired...
the rest of us went for a walk to the view point... have some drinks... chat... and we had some special fun
that was definitely great
you're my real friends!!!!

back to university

today i resumed university

the morning was quite like a usual monday morning for me; i take much time to adapt myself with the surrounding environment filled with people and moreover those in the class who always cackle and giggle so loud every morning until the lecturer arrives.

today as usual the university was somehow not ready; my friend Ron told me that our time-table is only settled for monday and tuesday...

we had to move to another class found in the faculty of agriculture building. this is a weird fact for the faculty of social studies and humanities to which i belong and which has the most students (if i'm not mistaken) actually doesn't have a problem lecture hall! we students are constant wanderers. the hallways of this building always bare this lack of light and this is everything but encouraging to start a three hours lecture at 8 am!

the day went on pretty cool though as we actually discussed individually about our junior thesis (i'm writing a paper on Mauritian blogs...i should be devoting myself totally to this) and that's it...

today i resumed weight-lifting... needless to say how hard it was after all the junk food i've been having during the summer break and all the incredible amount of coke i've been having daily! usually there are some pretty annoying guys there who think they are the best just because they load their bars with a lot of weight but actually do the wrong movement!! so today, none of them, no damn weird noises like someone's having butt-sex... but i was sweating a lot and now feel the pain in my muscles... i also played basketball; it reminded me of my middle-school days!

been to the other lecture i had and was yet another light one and that was so cool!

shopping and then back at Quatre-Bornes!

had some sandwiches while doing some household work..had milk-spaghetti as diner and now enjoying a nice tea with some music playing!

Cool thing i am just trying; open Kid A album from Radiohead with 17 seconds interval on two different programs it make a question-answer effect!!! really amazingly cool! which shows that these guys are pure geniuses! (PS; thanks Ron)

i guess that tomorrow i should be devoting as far as possible the whole day for studying a bit, doing some reading and working on this junior thesis thingy...

Dies ist Elie, mein Freund aus univerisität... ich mag ihn heißen BROWN BEAR. Ich fragte ihn heute für die ein Bild für den Blog, aber er verweigert ... So i gestohlen das! Immer ich Spaß zu haben nettes Gespräch mit ihm und bewundere ihn für seine leichte unconformism! Gibt! Du bist auf meinem Blog! Und ich schrieb es in Deutsch, so dass du sie nicht verstehst!

Incredible Week-end; day 3

sAtUrDaY;
Flacq; 11am
as i promised Ronnie that I would be helping him to set up the Haunted House in a Charity Fair, we set pretty early to this village in the eastern part of Mauritius, despite of the sunburn that i had to face after the Ile Aux Cerfs trip.
Actually Flacq is one of those weird places in Mauritius. Yet much more busy and full of activity compared to some other towns in Mauritius (i here refer to places like Vacoas and even Beau-Bassin, my hometown)
we reached the state secondary school where we had to set the room
it was quite small though and it seems to me that the organizers lacked some coordination and experience.
at about two, i went to the supermarket to grab something to eat. It was a nice feeling to be walking in some place i don't know at all, the people looked different. it seemed like it's been only one or two generation since they came from India. There was two or three shopping malls, a lot of shops on the streets, and a striking amount of hawkers. I saw a lot of taxi working on a 'taxi-brousse' (shared-taxi) system. i guess it's also that crowded due to the Christmas shopping frenesia which seems to have reached the whole of the mauritian population, regardless of community and religion. The buses which are most of the time private operators are never in hurry to start and drive pretty slowly to try to catch each and every passengers and when the bus reaches a road where there'll be no one waiting, it seems like the driver has to catch the last train for survival, like never slowing down before humps, barely downshifting before curves. the only town linked to Flacq via bus are Rose-Hill and Curepipe i guess; the other bus lines connect to some other villages in the surroundings, so do the shared-taxis. Flacq is that place which wants to somehow give the image of a developing region; many shopping centers, brands shop, computerized lockers in supermarket, crowded streets but still conserving this rural spirit, this human closeness. Flacq is also this place where everyone looks into your bag after you've been shopping and particularly when they notice you've got some beers in your bag give you that eerie who-are-you-stare.
The day was somehow tiring for we did much for the preparation but i really enjoyed it for it got me to have a nice time with two of my best-friends from high-school. I gotta say we had much fun making fun of everyone and everything; just like we used to do in high-school where we never went to class. Memories.
We had to cab bringing us home. I had a cool nice evening; shower, then i walked into the town centre for it's somehow lively these days. even the supermarket is opened till 22:00
i had diner again at the Lebanese restaurant. then some drinks while watching still TV shows.
