So, recently I attended my graduation ceremony along with my peers. It was a glorious rainy day in Dublin, where everything left outside more than a few seconds would get soaked! Though the weather was not giving any joy, there where plenty of smiles on … Read More
Christian Petersen – “Limbus And Good Times”
I find myself relocated in Denmark as I am writing this. My master is now finished, and everything that remains is the final graduation ceremony which will take place Friday next week in Dublin, Ireland. This will be the end of an era as a … Read More
Christian Petersen – “Almost Done And In Doubt…”
So finally the master thesis was given in, but the question whether it is “good enough” remains. The answer will be at the defense of it on the 13th of October. This leaves me in limbo for a few days, though I must say I … Read More
Christian Petersen – “Road Fork”
What should I do when this internship finishes? What should I do when my masters are done? Should I look into a PhD? Should I accept the current job offer? Should I travel and see the world? Should I start my own business? Those are … Read More
Christian Petersen – “Time Is A Strange Substance”
It has been some time since i-studentlife has received my (warning, narcissism coming up) grandiose narratives on the tales of a Nordic graduate. This is mainly because I have not really had time and I can only sincerely apologise for this, because this is my … Read More
Christian Petersen – “The Science Of Academia”
Those of you who read my previous post will know I was battling hard with some of the other opportunities I got in from the internship seeds I planted. You will also know that I was pondering about bolting from what I had already chosen … Read More
Christian Petersen – “Applying Business Skills”
First of all I have to say that my work in search of an internship is still bringing in lucrative prospects. Such interesting prospects that I am starting to track small amounts of remorse in my mind. Nevertheless, I am content to see that the … Read More
Christian Petersen – “Do You Think You Can Do Business”
As mentioned last I was aiming at getting an internship and following some of the principles from Charlie Hoehn. I can successfully say it paid off quite well, but I must admit that I also followed the traditional path. In the end I ended up … Read More
Christian Petersen – “New Year, Ends And Beginnings”
My December was filled with anticipation and, towards the end, somewhat loaded with relief. I was coming to terms with the end of my third semester and its requirements. On top of that I was stressing to make the last points on my to-do list … Read More
Christian Petersen – “Roadblocks, Contradictions and Ethnocentrism”
So, Paris is proving to be some kind of test of my patience (or any foreign students’ patience for that matter). French students are somehow reluctant to act when things go wrong and hope someone else will fix it. This reminds me of a great … Read More
Christian Petersen – “Perceptions”
Perceptions in Cultures So I have been absent from i-studentlife for a while now, which I have been regretting somewhat as I love to write. I’ve even forsaken my own blog for quite some time in the process. However, I have experienced something that has … Read More
Christian Petersen – “Mobility”
My location is in the middle of the field on a tractor. The radio is broadcasting the local radio station while I am waiting for the harvester to make its turn so I can take the next five tons of grain back home. While waiting … Read More
Christian Petersen – “Rebound”
As I am making my way back home to the place I was raised I find myself with plenty of time on the way to get updated on domestic matters that have seemed so far away this semester. I also happen to catch the way … Read More
Christian Petersen – “When Good Goes Bad And Flips Back Good”
First of all thanks for all the good responses I have had from everyone reading. I am very grateful – Thank you. As I wrote last we went on the Wicklow Way to test our stamina and experience the Irish nature, which has been so … Read More
Christian Petersen – “Copenhagen – Cork – Galway”
The clock hits 12.45 on Monday the 24th of May and the nice lady in front of all the tables tells us to stop writing. Five minutes after chatter breaks out and the woman in front of the tables raises her voice just enough to … Read More
Christian Petersen – “Travelling The World”

Christian Petersen – “All around the world”
I find my self caught spinning in circles and not entirely satisfied with my situation. Preparing for a world trip is a tedious task and takes up a lot of time. Not the task themselves, but the waiting time in between is long. For instance, … Read More
