Learning new Photography skills
I recently discovered the photo editing program Gimp and the youtube channel Davies Media Design. Watching Davies videos, I have learned how to use the curve tool properly, how to change colors of an image, and that as small a detail as adding a vignette can make a huge difference! Thank you, Michael Davies! I have mainly used…
My husband is the coolest!
The title says it all: My husband is the COOLEST!!! He has colored his hair blue, and he is so beautiful! It was not cheap, so a friend of ours taught me how to do it so I can do it from now on.
Writing Licentiate thesis
I blogged earlier about starting to write my Licentiate thesis. Well, time has passed, and I’m still writing. The plan is to split it into one part with an in-depth introduction to BCI systems and one part about my research. I aim to have a draft of the first part until summer. It is occasionally hard to…

Teacher of the year – again!
Today I had the honor of receiving the prize for best teaching assistant of the year from the M-guild at LTH. I’m so proud and delighted about this prize. This semester, we taught in the classroom (instead of online as during Covid). I had seminars that were similar to webinars, as I have written about before.…
Rock carvings
It is a special feeling to be so close to something that was created such a long time ago. If you ever get the chance to visit some rock carvings, I recommend you do it. If you are in Sweden here is a map of all antiquities.
Flower Power
I like flowers. I have too many flowers. I want more flowers. The best way to get more flowers is to take cuttings (swe: stickling) from a plant. Here is how to do it: Cut a plastic bottle in half to use as a pot. Fill the pot with soil (if you have “lacakulor,” put…
