just got another thanks, but no thanks letter in the mail. No job for me yet .. and we both want out so bad. I guess most are worried because I am married and could have kids (like unmarried females never have babies). So after tomorrow, when my presentation and the offical finish of my degree will be, I will send out more applications.
On a different note, my godmom mentioned a creative business she’d like to do with me if we lived close. And I like that idea more and more. While I love being a surveyor, I also know that my GM has many friends, good social skills and connections .. so opening something with her could bring in money. Will need to think about that and talk to her on Saturday, so maybe there’ll be exciting news after all.
First the unpleasant news (at least for me), Wednesday 10AM is the presentation for my final thesis. I am about to be done writing it up the presentation in Power Point and will be able to try it out later today and tomorrow. After that, I am free until the 25th July when I get my diploma on a party. Can’t wait.
Now to better news - at least for me - I got RAK(Random Act of Kindness)ed today. I joined a group on Ravelry for RAKs, posted my wishlist and Maylin from France treated me with this wonderful package. I got some lovely, pinkish lace weight yarn, some Kool Aid for dying, different kinds of roving as well as some fire star (middle, front of the pic) which adds sparkly to the roving and turns into a lovely sparkly yarn, and a lovely postcard showing some Blue Faced Leicester sheep, which I have not seen before. Thank you so much, Maylin, you sure made my day with this beautiful package 
This is totally un-crafty related, but here it goes:
I found a job offer in Koblenz (laying in my home state) that would offer 15 months of education (yep, school again) starting in October with payment. Afterwards I’d get into an un-fire-able gov employment with some nice money 
The same job offers are being made in Bavaria (starts in Nov) as well as in Hessen (starts in Oct), were as I am unsure whether or not Hessen would give out a permanent job afterwards. Sadly, our state is already done with this year’s canidates as they started working this month.
I will be meeting my prof on Friday and will ask him if he can somehow give me something that clarifies my most likely grade or something. I so wish to work in Koblenz … and all that money would be so good. So please keep your fingers crossed for that one. Koblenz is a great town .. and they speak my dialect.
I am back .. on my old laptop (the fan issue one, for those who follow here for a longer time). The other one had to be sent in to ACER to get a new HDD. I will be meeting with the proff about my thesis on Friday.
While away, I stitched a little (on the dog RR) and also finished (almost) the test knitting I did for someone. I will share a photo of the finished cardigan as soon as I bought buttons and bloked.
Snoopy had a great time the past week, playing Mario Kart Wii and fighting the mean Hay Monster. He was so hungry, but wanted to go out so bad that he just combined both :
So, I am finally recovering, though still sore and cranky. The pills made my stomach a little sick, but I have the next few pills ready to be taken. I will go to school tomorrow to work on my final thesis. Much left to do, but I am sure it will be ok. I have three out of four exams passed, the two I am unsure about are still open. Would be so cool if I passed all and would walk out of school in April 
I have not stitched for a while, mainly because my concentration is not too well so knitting is easier to do. I miss stitching, though. As soon as I recover, I will work on the dog RR.
I finally got to wear my sweater and took a photo. It’s kind of blurry, but I just did not get it clearer in our dark hallway. Hope you like it!
While laying on the couch most of the day, I started a new project which will be a shrug. It’s a very fun and easy project to knit and I cannot wait til I can actually wear it. It takes up a lot of yarn, though.
I am still around. We went to see my parents over the weekend, so not much time to blog. Tomorrow’s my last test and I think I might not pass. I am just too tired and worn out, but luckily - eventhough it will be a bad in a fiancial way - it will not be the end of the world.
On a lighter note, my knitting bug keeps bugging (heheh) and I finished the front and back of my sweater. It looks lovely, but it might be a wee too big. Since it was not permantly fixed, I will just sew a few stitches extra in when doing the real sewing - plus it’s always good to have things bigger than smaller
First of all, I’d like to thank everyone for your lovely comments on my blog I appreciate and care about each of them THANKS!
Today was my first exam and I think I passed ok. So that’s pretty good. Only 4 more to go.
And here’s my latest project - Magaret Sherry’s Dog’s Dinner. You cannot really see that I stitched half a dog on the right of the black (ear) because it is all in white, but he’s there.
.. on that sweet puppy playing with his ball. So cute. I shall be starting the backstitching and see how far I will come. I am sure it will not be done today, but maybe before Friday
I also did learn nicely - about 2/3 done with the script I hope to get it done soon, so I can move back to the subjects I will be questioned about first. I think so far I am not too bad in time. I have three subjects first week and with all three, I have a general idea
I have not been on much, since I was trying to recover my hands by playing games and stitching a little bit a day. They still hurt pretty much, but getting better. Sadly, the whole sickness things hugely threw me back in stitching, designing and working.
We got the money back for our broken bread maker and bought a new one from another company. So far it works alright, but ask me in a few weeks.
I also got the school thing sorted out which happenes to be a computer/database error. I am back in school.
Expect some stitchy photos later today.
… for all your support, thoughts and prayers. i am very thankful for each of you. i do indeed have the most wonderfull online friends. many hugs and much love to you all.
luckily, it was no heart attack, though it was their first diagnosis. dad had more like a strong heart flickering - if that isthe correct term. he came home tonight, on his own risk. tommorow he will need to go back for more tests and to get infos for the diet he will need to do.
now as yesterday was not bad enough, i got a letter from college today, basically saying i got expelled. i wrote one exam three times, but took one semester off while working. so now they say it took me too long. i just do not get why they did not tell me before i wrote the test a third time, since it was obvious i would not pass on time. no need to worry, though. i will take legal action as well as write yet another excuse. i only have one semester left and they did allow me to write the test in the first place. was just hoping that with all the good grades i had this semester i’d get off easy. ah well.
wonder what happenes tommorow…
need to off now. my hands still hurt, so i use the wii to write to you. it’s a pain. hopefully, i will be able to stitch tommorow again. have a lovely day
we spent the weekend with the family, which was nice after such a long time. We BBQed and played games, listened to music and so on.
We came back Sunday, played more games and I had to go to school on Monday. I did not feel well since a while, but it did get worse, so I went alone to my parents to see the doc first thing Tuesday morning. Having a horrible cold and can hardly stay on my feet - hooray :-/ I got antibiotics and hundrets of other things.
Now today I am just laying around, slept a lot, pains everywhere and whatever else. How much fun that is. I am trying to finish one more model, so I can finally update lbc, but I am not sure if I can manage before we go on holiday. Cross your fingers for me.
I must go to school tomorrow and Friday, since there are presentations 
I also have to write a stupid essay for the test, do not know how I can manage yet. I am so out of it. While talking about school, I can proudly say that I passed all tests (-1 that is still not graded) with fine grades. Guess I am not too stupid after all ;) .. Hubby deserves some extra thanks, that’s for sure
Hubby and I are heading to be married for one year!! Time flies when having fun and we do have much fun. The only thing we ever really argue about is …. guess … in-laws (in-law-family)!!! The situation actually turned all the way around, while usually I was very welcome and liked at Andy’s family, now I am the one everyone pretends that is not excisting. No one ever calles, emails or visits or anything. Makes me so mad and hurts very bad, but who ever said life was nice?
I guess it’s time to lay down again. I start feeling sick again. I will take a little photo of my model later tonight
yesterday’s test was Photo+FE .. I do not know if I passed or not. There’s a chance I did ok, but I can’t really tell. Hope I passed.
today’s test was IMT … I did bad, but due to the fact the other subject was good, I should have gotten an ok grade out of this
I cannot put in words how glad I am this semester is over. While the semester itself was ok, the test period was terrible. This last week, I could hardly concentrate on anything.
today’s test was PhotoPrak .. which was alright since there was no chance to not pass. All that did the excercises and wrote the test had already passed, so we only went in to get our grades. I did not do too well, but I expect a 3.0 - that’s great yet again :)
I also got the results in from GIS 2 - where I got a 3.0 which was not too bad considering that I only had an afternoon and a bit to learn. I am pleased. Guess after all I am not as stupid as it seems hehe. I also got the result for the one I had to pass in order for them to let me stay in school. Well, I had to look at least 3 times to be 100% sure I read it correct. It really said an amazing 2.0!!! I cannot believe that I was so incredible good Way to go me!
Now two more tests tomorrow and the day after … I can’t wait to be done, this has been a lot to learn and know as I wrote about 10 exams …
Today was ÜPL4:
It was my last try. If I pass I will get my degree next year. If I failed, I will start looking for a job this summer without any sort of degree. You see the importance there. I am cautionally optimistic that I passed - very carefully since last time I was sure I passed, but I failed. My guess is that I got 75+ in one subject and 25+, so even if bad comes to bad I should have the 100% of 200% passed. Hopefully …
this will be a freebie to come out soon .. once I am done with it and have it prepared.
I just reservate (sp?) us two tickets on the cuddle bench (nope, I am not kidding) for Harry Potter V Will be on Sunday and I can hardly wait
I learned as much as i could get into my little brain and do hope it’s enough. Will update as soon as I can tomorrow. Thanks for all your nice comments everyone
