It’s early
I don’t know exactly why I set my alarm to go off 30 minutes before Tais and Cookie picks me up… I’m tired, but it’s going to be fun anyway :-)

Roadtrip to LinuxForum 2001
Tomorrow I’ll be heading for Copenhagen, the capital of Denmark. I’m going to the LinuxForum 2001 conference, together with Cookie and Tais.
I’m really excited about this, and expect to bring home loads of merchandice: t-shirts badges etc :-) It’ll be great! Apart from this, there’s also some very interesting talks. I recently switched to Debian, so I look forward to hear the talks about this. But there will also be talks about a lot of other interesting subjects.
Cookie told me, that they had spoken to Raster about having him speak at the conference! Judging from the news on his homepage, he would probably have spoken about “his new toy”: Evas. This would have been awesome — to have met this incredible talented guy… Wow. But they found out, that they didn’t have an empty slot for him, so he won’t be there. What a shame!
No military service!
Today there I received a letter that told me, that I won’t have to do military service. Yes! So this means that there’s nothing stopping me from starting at the university next later this year.
Where do I want to go today?
Yesterday I visited the Department of Computer Science at the University of Aarhus (also called DAIMI). They had arranged some tours, so that potential students like me could have a look at the place.
It looked very nice, so I believe that this is where I’ll spend the next 5-9 years of my life. I plan to take a Masters degree (cand.scient) in Computer Science, which takes at least five years. If I still like it after that, then I’ll probably start with a Ph.D. study which takes another four years. But it’s way to early to decide that now :-)
