Yelläks /ˈyæl•eks/

I am living in room 1G-007 (“double 0-seven” – James Bond) in one of the new blocks of the student’s hostel. It is quite big compared to the other hostels available and it can be quite noisy at night. My room is located near the exit so that everybody who enters or leaves the building passes by my door. The inhabitants of this block do not miss an opportunity to show me, that I am not alone (and I am used to be waken up by the birds at my place at home). Often there is a group discussion going on about the latest developments in one subject at 3 in the morning. My neighbor likes to whistle and sing in the middle of the night, because the acoustic is quite amplifying in the narrow hallways. In addition: The TV room is just in the opposite of my window. So, I get used to all the noises and I can sleep better with every night. But one day I might make use of my license to kill…

There are basically 3 messes on campus: A, B and not surprisingly C. I am allotted to the C-Mess. The food is as expected: eatable. A few people keep telling that C Mess is the worst and I should change to another mess, but for the short period that I am here, it is not worth it to cause all the trouble. There is at least one thing which makes C Mess unique: The altar with 4 pictures of gods. These pictures are enhanced by LEDs which blink and flash in several colors all the time.
