UI - Theological Institute in Tallinn

This is my school #2, or going by importance in my life at the moment -- my school #1 rather.
I just love it!! And what a crowd. The cream of Estonian humanitarian thought, definitely. I am attending Master's decree program of Christian Cultural studies in UI (Usuteaduse Instituut, look it up at http://www.eelk.ee/ui/, unfortunately only in Estonian).

Last year 10 of us started, by now there five of us left. All of us came with different expectations, hopes, and dreams -- looks like some were not fulfilled. Some, at the same time, were :) I think that something is common between us - this hunger of knowledge, eagerness of solving the mystery, power of search and willingness to try.

We are all working, having families, friends, hobbies etc. But we do have this something that makes us believe - all these sleepless nights, long hours in library and weekends not in the nightclub or with new friends but in solitude are spent wisely and have its meaning in a long run. Time will tell if we have found our Eldorado through UI or was it just a dream ...
About my people there -- I love them. They all add something to my days and i can't wait seeing them again, suffer these long days in brainstorming and fighting sleep, sharing and trespass our minds, telling and listening. I am hungry for them and all that they have to offer.

Madis, Merike*2 (Estonians are not creative on names), Karli, Pille -- here they are.

Pille was transferred from previous courses, there are new people joining us this year as well - the ones who did not graduate.
