“Universitas,-atis”

Just in case you were not able to figure it out last time

Solution exercise # 1:

4 (1)

‘Little Yoda’ outside the ‘shovel’ = Done!

Solution exercise # 2:

4 (2)

Connecting all the dots with 4 lines without ‘lifting the pen away from the paper’ = Done!

But today I have a different kind of question for you dear readers:

When you live in a house with eight other exchange students (the number has now increased + 1 since I last wrote); ‘who’ is every day in the kitchen waiting to greet you “good morning”?

[Now you are supposed to click on the video below… You know, to make it more “exciting”!] -

And the answer is…

And the answer is…

And the answer is…

And the answer… (Yes, yes; I’ll stop it with this!)

The answer is: “Mr. José Cuervo”.

…For some reason this tequila bottle has remained standing as it is, in the same exact spot for about a week. Nobody moves it! It is right there, every morning when I wake up (not the nicest smell to wake up to, I should say). But then again, at least this has an explanation. What I really have absolutely no clue about is: What is a ‘mysterious’ bra doing ‘decorating’ a plant right in the entrance of the house? Reallyno idea!

Weird house, huh? But do not get the wrong impression dear readers, because in reality this is how ‘parties’ are celebrated in our house:

With “Mr. Winnie the Pooh” and “Mr. Tigger (Too)”… Never judge a book by its cover.

OK, but enough with bizarre houses and amusing characters. LETS GET STARTED TODAY!

“WELCOME TO JOURNALISM. The career with most cases of abductions, divorces, murders and suicides. You will study this degree for a period of four years and when you graduate there are big chances that you will not get a job.”

Oh, I can still remember my first day of university, when I had first arrived to Spain for studying a degree in journalism some years ago! What you just read above was the introduction from one of our teachers. It was pretty “moving” and “inspiring”, as you may see!

Fortunately, this second time of studying at a Spanish university has not been as ‘not moving’ and ‘not inspiring’ as that one of the first experience. I am actually surprised to see that so far it has been exactly the opposite. 

So, how does the minor abroad work?

As an exchange student at the Universidad de Sevilla you are basically free to select 3 subjects from ‘departments’/'schools’ other than your own. Meaning that, in this case, as a marketing student from Fontys I would have been able to pick subjects from architecture, engineering, philology, medicine, etc. Whatever you please! The other two courses (to complete a 30 credit semester) do have to be chosen from the department you belong to. In this particular situation, the Economics & Business School.   

Now I find myself taking a few courses in two different schools, the Economics & Business School and the School of Communication; from the Audiovisual Communication, Advertising & Public Relations and Marketing degrees. Namely: Merchandising, Brands and new products management, advertising research, artistic direction & design and creative writing. And honestly I have been enjoying very much a few of the lectures, specially the last two mentioned! They are quite interesting.

I will actually (very abruptly) stop writing right this moment, because I have class in 30 minutes and it takes me 20 to arrive there. Got to go, got to go. It was a short post, sorry about that, but ‘till next time dear readers!

Have a nice day.

PEACE OUT
Your writer,
Maria
