Have a nice day
10.59 am. My phone is ringing.Me: 'Hummmm...'
Jen: 'Hi french guy, it's Jen. What are you doing, we're wating for you.'
M: 'What the fuck! I got back at 4 and you just woke me up'
J: 'But what about the brunch at the nation?
M: 'Come on, I'm sleeping.
Then she gives the phone to Torsten...
T: 'Come on Laurent! You get your ass out of the bed and you join us for the brunch. The sun is shining outside, it's a lovely day, so come and enjoy the sun with us.'
M: 'Holly shit, you win. I'll be there in 20 min'
20 minutes later, I'm in the elevator to the last floor of Lund's Nation building. Jen, Ade, Torsten, Eduardo and another girl I don't know are here. Some other guys all around the place look hangover but alive. I pay and get my breakfast, still half sleepy. I join the other, outside, on the terrace. It's cold outside but I feel okay with only my sweater. It is totally lovely out there. The sun is shining so brightly... We can see all the south part of Lund, far away Malmö and the bridge. I start eating some cereals and fruits with yogurt. I also have two sandwiches, a glass of pineapple juice and a cup of black coffee. We're talking and joking, a moment of pure friendship, a moment that I catch as much as i can, because it's full of happiness, simplicity and truth. It's like forgetting space and time, and all the shitty problems facing. I feel alive. So alive that I even eat a huge pancake with chocolate sauce, ice-cream and banana.
After an hour or so, we decide to move out and go to the Kulturen Museum. This museum, created in 1898, shows different way of life throught time in Sweden mostly, and more particulary in Lund. We start to walk along the houses: here is a farm, here is a church, here is a big building which certainly was a house. Inside, old farmer tools, tables and decorations, like if you were living at this time. We are taking our time. We've lost Jen and Eduardo. We are walking slowly, enjoying the rays of lights that warm our faces and heart. It is so good to see a little of sun.
That was a lovely day. Thak you Jen and Torsten to have called me, really. It is so good to have your company guys, all of you !!!
Tonite was a Christmas party with the LUMESians. We drunk some glög. Everybody brought a small present and put it under a tree. Then everyone caught a number, and one by one, we picked up one of the present. The rule was that instead of picking up a present, you could take the present of someone else, and then this one would go and pick up a new one.
So I was number 9, and I got a pretty nice plastic spoon/fork/knife in one, and a star to put around a light and hang out to a window for Christmas. Eduardo stole it. So I got a big candle and 85% cacao dark chocolate. Not a bad deal, even if I loved the star.
I loved this day, I loved it.
