In the morning I had my second lecture!

It was in building 10, 5th floor

It is one of the best lectures I've had since Linda Kann!

Our professor was called Emanuela, and reminded me of Professor Trelawney, but in the best possible way, as if I was Lavender or Parvati. And instead of being squeamish and weird she was like a perfect combination of Dumbledore and McGonagall.

She called all 18 of us by name and made the seminar feel very interactive while still on track and engaging.

I got to read my first acknowledgement of county. (It is baiscally one of the way in which Australia tries to reconcile with the colonisation of the First Nation people). Most insittitions enforce it every time there is a public event or presentation, so I got to read it out loud for the class.

Then I sat down to study in building 2

KTH Innovation vibe?

On the photo you can see the slide from the presentation with the acknowledgment of country.

But what should have been a study session ended up as an hour long debugging session

But then I got invided to go to Bondi. Which I first turned down, because I had planned to study. But then I realised I am an exchange student...

So off course I went to the beach anyway

And also my computer started working while waiting in line, so in the end everything worked out!

We all had to be one for a mandatory flat meeting. Basically everyone on the floor would get introduced.

So about the floor meeting🥴

The day started off with one of the best lectures I've ever had, and ended with maybe on of the poorest events I've attended.

(In the photo it looks like ive hidden in a corner, but I have some people just beside me and the wideange lakes the 1 meter link like 4)

What started of as a fun casual mingling tuned into a 2 truths one dare drinking game. Since it was compulsory I feel like people squeezed this in-between classes and study and what not, the drinking par felt very out of touch.

At first I thought it was a joke given my experience with the intro weeks at KTH.

Since I didn't want to drink or hand out drinks I didn't want to participate in the guessing, so I just there for one hour, ad somewhere in there delivered my 2T1L, and when I got asked to hand out a shot I said I didn't want to force someone since no one seemed liked they actually wanted to. And then I kept biding my time. When the round was finished, I went back to my room and started writing this, and now here we are.

The groups were unfortunately too big and the "stakes" were too "high" to create a meaningful exchange.
