Back to reality

I must admit it has been almost a month when I have written my last post, and I did wanted to have one at least once a week. It is easy to say, but harder to do, I am afraid. It is not because I did not have anything to write about. Damn, I wanna be a journalist so I must write about everything that surrounds me and I should not have any problems with putting this on blog. A lot of things happened lastly and I have had many ideas to write about, but I simply neither had time nor fancy to write. Probably, I have just survived a crisis of my output but I guess I am too young for that. By the way, I am 23, since I forgot to write this.

Thus, as I have mentioned plenty things happened from my last post. I have been for the second time in Poland. I do not want to write here how it was since it would be too personal, do not you agree? I have been busy with studying recently. I have done a presentation about media system of my country which actually took me much time, however I think, I have done a good job. Then I went to Finland to have one module of my course at two universities in this country: University of Helsinki and University of Tampere. Actually, the journey (by ferry) was fun and stay in Finland was also nice, however the module was not interesting at all. I will not offend anyone if I tell you that there I had to cope with the most boring sessions I have ever participated. For the first time I simply fall asleep during the lecture...That is sick. I understand that problem of media and development and climate change are important in nowadays world, but I am sure that such issues can be held in much more stimulating way. I am not the guy who does not care about anything going on, but this was dead boring. The lecturers, in my opinion did not want to make us interested in the topics. They simply wanted to give their presentations and wait for our assignments. Actually, what I do think that they could have sent us outlines and literature and we would know even more than from these boring lectures. But still it was good to travel to other country. I love travelling, but I will write about this other time.

That was cool to meet some journalists from Finland and talk to them or visit Ministry of Foreign Affairs (they serve good food), but part of education was pointless in my opinion. Now, finally came back to Sweden and I need to come back to reality, or so called daily routine. Still taking snuff and counting the days to come back to Poland. Just 8 days left. Life is beautiful. Today we had new seminars, they were much better than those in Finland. We have a lot of to do, but I do not really mind to keep myself busy. Thanks to this I feel I am alive. I have many things to write here, but maybe I will do this in other posts. Maybe tomorrow. Today, I think it is enough.

The daily routine ?

Unexpected post :)

Actually I did not expect that I will be writing here so often, but maybe I was wrong. Today I decided to make another story. At the moment I am quite busy reading all the bloody materials for one of my assignment. I need to describe a media system of my country - Poland. Having read some articles and chapters in books I realized how little I know Polish media system. I know much more about British or Swedish one, but sometimes it is good to have some interest in our motherland. What is also strange for me, I find it quite odd to read about Polish media in English. Apparently I do have some materials in Polish language, however I need to use some English literature to make possibile for my teacher to check the info. That is so strange, but who cares...

Today I have read few articles and I am afraid I have gained too much info right now. The good thing is that I have plenty ideas what to write, but probably I will have to 'kill some of my darlings' since I am supposed to write only 5 pages. You can think it is a lot, but if I wanted to write brief history of Polish media it would take me at least 2-3 pages. But I need to write much more than just the history. Now before my individual consultation I need to sort out my material to have a clue what I really want to write.  That is enough for school. No more words today will be about my education - I do promise.

Today was actually quite nice day, I have cooked really nice dinner and I have used my favorite snuff - orange ozona which is awesome. I do recommend everyone, but I realize that none of you likes snuff. I also tried snus today, and I need to tell that each time is better but i do not think it can be addictive.

Now I have been talking on Skype for the last few hours, answered few e-mails and have been looking for accomodation. I really would like to find something soon. Also the good thing is it is 9 days left to my travel to Poland. It has been already 2 weeks I came back to Sweden, but I am really looking forward to coming back home.

I tittled today post by 'The daily routine'. You can maybe wonder why. But this is how my life looks like right now. School, looking for accomodation, talking on Skype, taking snuff and counting the days to come back to Poland. I really miss her.  Tomorrow lecture in the morning so soon I need to get to bed if I do not want to overslept.

Greetings

Big hello to you my friends :)

First of all I would like to apoligize for that some content of my blog will be in English, but I can expect some readers who have no commands of my native language - Polish. I do hope that no one will be offended if I write in English right now. Apparently, some of the content will be also in my language but I will start this in English.

Now few words about myself. At the moment I am doing Master Programme in Global Journalism at University of Orebro in Sweden. I have already been here for more than month so finally I get used to living abraod. It is not the first time I line alone in different country since for three years I have been studying at University of Wolverhampton in United Kingdom. Then after that I came bck to Poland for one year so I could have forgotten how to live abroad.

In this blog I will try to write what I feel, what are my impressions of living in Sweden and how my daily routine looks like. I do hope to lead this blog as often as I can but I doubt that my life is so interesting to write a big story each day. We wiil see what is going on and I hope that u will enjoy reading my stories.

As I have already mentioned mainly it will be carried in English but it is not cuz I am tha smart and I want to boast, I just simply hope that some of my foreign friends follow that. I do also want to excuse myself and say that I also write a normal/traditional diary and there I write stuff typical for me and it is more personal an such stuff I am not gonan to publish for everyone that is why my posts here will not be that often I am afraid. Still enjoy reading that stuff and have a nice end of weekend.
