People around me are really happy today as quite a few of them had a large burden lifted from them yesterday. There was a submission deadline and three people (Dominik and Tomas included) stayed up until two this morning to finish their papers on time. Rikke (pronounced Regge) finished her status report (the midway mark for PhD here) and I just finished writing up the last bits for Sharemind protocols.
Dominik turned up today especially happy - besides finishing the paper, he also managed to finally get Internet installed at his new house, and to get a CPR card.. and a new telephone. He thought life could not get any better until we told him that today the Friday bar is sponsored by a private company, which means free beer for all. Seriously, I have yet to see the guy this happy :)
As for me - Im doing fairly ok. In some sense, I literally cannot wait to get back to Estonia. But it is nice here and as I have been doing a lot of work for the past month, I am going to try to take it easy for the remaining week and a half and try to look around and take in a bit more of the culture here. The weather is still good and will hopefully remain so for at least this weekend.
