My head spins around, my heart is splitting in two, my mind is all over the place and my luggage is still to be packed. Four years in the country of freedom and tons of opportunities have come to its finale. In less than 10 hrs I have to say bye to my close friends. In less than 12 hrs I will be getting ready to get on a plane. In about15 hrs I will be switching planes in the biggest airport I've ever been to. In 24 hrs I will be flying above Europe and in a day and a half I will hopefully safely land in Mother-land. But what about everything I'm leaving behind? what about all the people I might never see again? Why is it always the case: you had a great time of your life, get comfortable with everything and everyone and then 'buuuum' - time to move on, time to travel far and for long. The idea of leaving is crucial, but the idea of staying behind is even worse, because i have a family on the other side, there is my brother who hasn't have a sister near by for all these 6 years, my parents who haven't really seen their daughter for at least a year, my friends who are getting mad at me for not wanting to return... how many time I am going to change homes? when will I finally settle?
I need time to think about it. I'll have plenty of it in a plane, 10 hrs flight, 10 boring and sad hrs of flight...
I'll be just fine. I won't cry. I am going home!

the end...
I finally decided to open my book today...
Was too busy before and time flyes too fast to travel along with
it...
I completely forgot about it, my already fat and very complicated book,
hidde in a dusty clothet...
I opened on the page I stopped last time...
There is nothing but the last two words: "move on...".
The chapter seemed to be left unfinished...
It seems like it's too late to fill in the gaps...
What did those two words mean?..
One of my friends has given a really good definition/explanation to this
fenomenom...
This Volume #n is becoming to heavy and too complecated to read and
understand...
I wanna close it and put it back...

continuing in St Petersburg...
LAURA IS FINE!!!!!! :P that what she tells my every time I ask her any question! he he he it's an internal joke... But we are doing great! today we safely arrive to St Petersburg and did nothing but chilling at the house we are staying at. The night train we took sucked out all our energy even though we slept like babies all way long. :) it was an esciting experience for Laura (since she has never taken a proper train), myself as Laura's tour guide and ppl around us, coz we were quite loud .
Tomorrow is a new day and we are looking forward to an advanturose trip around my favorite city, picking up Casey and maybe seeing Jenny later that day and her new very nice americna friends.
I did unfortunately skipped a couple of funny days we had in Moscow, but if I have time I'll write about it later so it will stay in my blog for a long memory..

the beginning of advanture
a day fullfilled with excitment, new feelings, advanture, random ppl, my dad's b-day, rain!, and pictures...
To start from the beginning, we did wake up late as it's been predicted, so our days started around noon... registration part brought me into frustration, but we postponed it till tomorrow, so taking the metro and going down-town was our main goal for today. First of all, I've conmbined smth I had to do (aka somewhere I had to drop by) with an interesting excursion around one of the oldest monastries down town. The amazing thing about it is that behind those thick walls no traffic noise is coming through and it's so peacefull and quite as we are somewhere in the subburbs. Moreover, except the interesting excursion we had around that holly place, we met a group of tourists from Buenos Aires there and with whom I tried to use the little spanish I know... but due to my shyness and the lack of time we had, I barely could say hi and bye. But that group of adult latinos followed us even to the resturant we stopped to have lunch in. Nice and very friendly people and absolutely out of nowhere.. But our tour was going on. After seeing the beauties of that monastry we realized that hunger was taking our last energy away, so we stopped at this lovely, quite cheep, but very russian place where we could have a decent lunch and not overpay since Moscow is very far from a cheep city.. That was the moment when the severe rain has started and scared a lot of ppl away.. we continued our trip to the Red Square, by the Historic Museum, by Lenins grave, went to the St Basilic church, followed by Alexander Garden and we ended our trip in the Cathedral of Crist the Savior. We choose to have a church day, because it required to have a special atire, so tomorrow we are looking forward to further exploration of Moscow :)
off to bed, coz the wine we had for my dad's b-day is getting me a bit :P
night-night

the worlds crossing
Laura is here :) finally arrived! it's amazing how wierd and amazing to see her here. I'm very happy to be able to share my culture, to introduce her to another part of this planet... traveling and experience are the main ways to educated ourselves these days. I realize it by looking at myself even though I don't have that much behind my shoulders, but I have something to share and I'm glad to be able to help my roommie to get this valuable knowledge.. of course I'm nervious how things will go and of course it's hard to show everything, but tomorrow is our oficial start day and I'm hoping that she will have as much energy as she had today, the day she arrived.. we did manage to do some sightseeing and the weather helped us to complete this tast, so now, at 8 p.m. my friend is in a deep sleep on a new place.. time difference always brings troubles with it. But with her otimism and energy, with my protection and translation help and with our cameras, I'm sure her staying here will be enjoyable :)
peace

recent me
I so much wanted to write smth yesterday... but I forgot my password :P how smart! well, it took me a while to get it set back, because aparantly I gave a wrong e-mail :S ha ha, well, everyhing is all right now ;) so I'm back to blogging because I feel like it...
what about recent me? well, I totally gathered myself together and finally I can call it summer :) it's summer inside my empty head, it's summer on my smiling face, it's summer for every creature and plants and it is just around me and I have not noticed it till now. I guess this a week get away to Columbia was very useful. I got bored, I do not deny it, but sickness is not a lot of fun anyways, so it was safe to stay at the house. I came back to that myself who appreciates every little thing! I do enjoy what I do! surely I would change some things in life if it was possible to go back, but that is how it was permanetly typed on the pages of my life-book. :) It is still possible to read this book, but it's getting too fat every new year, so it's harder to recall what has happened there.... long time ago... The only and the most presious chapter of that book has a pretty bookmark with a UWC logo on it... yes, those were the days which I can not get over with. Why did I remember rcn again? well, talking to my beloved brought a lil flow of memories... and guess what's going now in my head? I'm making another list of plans where I have to go and whom I should see next year...
I hope I'll get better for make it life... have caughing :( and "who get's sick in May" - Lorena :P - well, I guess me and u do... but I'm sure you are already feeling good.
Peace and a sea of sun and fun!
