Rvy, think about when the holidays end and you'll have a little more spending money. ;) (auch viel Glück)
A squeezing hug from J-P to make you feel better. 

Kirra, glad it was interesting for you. I need to take my very last course this semester (there is a reason it is my last, although I should have done it a couple of years ago) and have a huge deal of exams (orals and written ones)... so there is very little excitement on my part. ^^

But the maths professor finally wrote to me and we had our first meeting, his course starts on Tuesday so I would have to be there to show my face to the freshmen (and -women) and let them know who's gonna scare the hell out of them... and expect them to understand and pursue the mad fantasies of some dubious mathematicians. :lol
