save trees, recycle your paper

As I live in a big industrial city, city itself gives food for thought sometimes. And moreover it gives a kick to actually do something. But there are not too much of ecological initiatives around. Though, thanks God, there are at least some. But when it's winter all that I can do is to go to give away my used notes, newspapers and basically everything that is made from paper and no use to me anymore to recycle. And here is a bit of my art consecrated to this issue.

not as bad as it sounds

Today the third string broke while I was trying to tune my guitar. And as I was in the mood for singing (or I better say howling) I sat down to the keyboard to accompany myself with few chords. Accidently, that’s how all my planes for the evening were washed away with this unexpected longing to play a bit more and then a bit more again and then, well, just a bit more. Of course it’s primitive like always, but in some way I finally get myself to finding notes by ear. It takes time and effort and I have to really know the tune and to love it. But there are some results at least. Finally, it is so late that everybody goes to sleep and I can’t play anymore (:

Also, I've started relistening audiobook of George Orwel's nineteen eighty four for my literature class. The accent is american and it sounds a bit unusual after I've put all my efforts to surround myself with british accent. 

Van Gogh is puzzled

That is what I've been doing every now and then during January. Now it's more than half way through. This beautiful "Café Terrace at Night" puzzle is a present from my friend Lilya to whom I'm very greateful, btw. Now I have a recipe of a quite calming and sedetive evening coctail : puzzles + BBC radio 4, every evening for an hour. It puts me in a peaceful mood before going to sleep.1500 pieces in total

Good night (:

destination 2013

If you ask me how my preparation to French exam is going, I say fine.... I'm bloging in English so far. It's just not a French mood. It's totally English mood as I'm listening to "Cabin Pressure" staring Benedict Cumberbatch. This is the only way to survive until they finally start shooting the 3d season of Sherlock (Have they started already?).

It is the 20th of January 2013 and it is time to set some more or less realistic goal for this fabulous year whole in front of me (except 20 days I've been catching my breath after the previous year). It will be less realistic of course. I'd like to finally get to Britain. Isn't it stupid to study language from childhood, knowing that "London is the capital of Great Britain"  from the time when you were 7 years old and never visit the country? Then again to choose to be an interpreter, use it every day, use it in EYP, but travel to Czech Republic, to Poland and to France. Study English - go speak it in Poland. Want to meet English native speakers - go to Czech Republic. I was a genius indeed.

Now, finally: "Ticket to GB please!" My destination 2013 is London. I have no idea how am  I going to get there, but hopefully this year is the one.

We can start with a step by step plan. Firstly, I'll need some money. Well, not some but quite much. To get my humble scholarship few cents bigger I need an "A" on the last exam. And that is French. Here we back to French again. Anyway I have two more days to prepare...

And of course:
