Today in photos

I'm in a leave for my exam studies, but today the weather was too good to stay at home over the books. So I went for a walk outside: to buy sports shoes and enjoy the good weather.

The day in photos:

It's 15th of September, the start of the school year, so all over the city there are various events in the afternoon. Something like: dear student, from tomorrow on you start school, it will be very, very tough, but relax - today is the last day of fun.
I passed by one of the events: a concert with the slogan "Support you school" - maybe a competition which school would collect the most points. Participants from the Music Idol sang at the show. Grown-ups were either waiting for their children around or were just passing by and joking about the enthusiasm of the students.











While children were having fun and adults were having fun when watching them, other adults were not having fun. Just few hundred meters from the venue definitely not few adults were forming a traffic jam. The cross of Raovski str. and Tsar Osvoboditel blvd. has always been a potential traffic jam place but since part of it was closed because of the metro construction, all potential has been fully realized. While I was crossing the street, a song came to my mind: Relax, take it e-ee-a-sy... :-D









The third time I see an arrow hanging from a wire somewhere in Sofia. The first was "City", the second "Chop" (one side) and "Shop" (the other). The third one: simply "Soft", the other side - drawings. So, is it SOFT out there?












Benches normally are always single. So rare to see a couple. At the back of the National Library.












Cats like sleeping on high places. This one didn't make an exception. I presume that place was a famous cat hotel because there was another cat sleeping on the other part of the fence. What a classical photo composition. :)))












And, finally, after a loooong walk (3 hours in total) I returned home. With the long-desired shoes. In fact, this photo should have been in first place because I first bought the shoes and then went for the big walk and took the other photos. But the order of photos is chronological based on their taking rather than the occurrence of events during the day. And the shoes: CONVERSE, yeah! :)

Self-control

Do I control myself better? Today was the day of anger. Apparently some people at UNWE think they are gods and poor students should listen and obey. Obviously they treat people in the most unfriendly and prejudices way they can.
Did it make me angry? Yes, I was enraged.
But it lasted much shorter than previous times.
I don't even call it control. I call it pity. For them.
And for me: there's good in every bad situation.

Outraged

Rage is a very soft word to describe my feelings right now. Apparently, words like friendship not always apply to human relations with their most common meaning. If friendship means turning one's back to a friend in times of need, then I am completely desperate.
Why, oh why INTEREST is the driver for someone's friendly intentions??? And they don't help friends in need when they don't have an interest.
Pity for them and their interest.

It's a sad world.

Boredome and other funny stuff

Where did this boredome come from? I haven't invited it! I'm 100% sure!!! Well, it's almost certain that clocks don't get bored of repeating one and the same procedure each 24 hours.
Nevermind the machines, I'm not a machine. Therefore I decided to join a small group of friends and to climb Cherni vrah! It will be pretty soon - hopefully this Saturday!!!
That's what I call real fun! :) Vitosha, here I come! :-D

Two drivers for a change

Two things happened just in 30 minutes which made me make an unusual decision. I was walking on the sidewalk near my block when I came up with an idea for a change. I know so many people and I haven't seen or even chatted online with some of them for such a long time! And from friends many became just acquaintances. I want to change that. I want to keep them. I was thinking of the idea every day to talk to someone who I haven't seen for a long time, and try to make them smile.
When I got back home and turned on my laptop I played a CD with relatively old mp3's from my collection. "Stagger" by Underworld started and it remineded me of times which I've thought had almost faded away.
It's decided. It might sound silly, but I take it quite seriously. I already did it once and it feels great to chat with people I haven't seen for ages.
Say hello! :)

The forgiveness day/Sirni Zagovezni

I have just understood that today...no, it's already yesterday...was Sirni Zagovezni, known also as the day of forgiveness ("Proshka"). In the Christian orthodox tradition it is the day after which starts the fasting before Easter. It is also a day connected with the pagan celebrations of the ending of the winter and beginning of the spring. Fires are lit and mummers dance in the streets to scare the devil.
It is also the day of forgiveness. Originally a custom for young members of the family to ask for forgiveness their parents and grandparents, nowadays it has turned into a day for everyone to ask their closest people to forgive them for anything they might have done wrong during the past year.
Although the day has passed, it is never late to ask for forgiveness. That's why I'm asking for forgiveness everyone who knows me and who feels that I have done a mistake or made them feel bad.
As I am a person who doesn't like anything which is done just because that's the tradition, and because I'm constantly trying to be a better person, I will make everything to fix anything I've done the wrong way.
So, please, forgive me, my family and friends. I'll do my best to deserve the forgiveness you'll hopefully give me.

Murphy laws in action

Yes, I'm using the last capacity of my PC write this post and who knows why I use it for this instead of writing my thesis in Finance of Holding Structures.
But one thing should be pointed out - what could go wrong inevitably does or something like that. Murphy or who else has said it was right. In my current situation the version will be "If a PC could break down just when you start writing your thesis, it would definitely do so."
If I had enough time to make a thorough analysis, I would have found the exact correlation between the scale of damage of a PC and the time left before the thesis presentation.
But I don't have. I'm running out of time... Sorry... This one will be without a proper end (if there has ever been a proper one...)
