Wow, it's actually fun:) he he he, I think having blogs it's a great idea of keeping your thoughts, events, memories together. I find it much more useful than sending mass e-mails to each other: first of all, your mail box doesn't get full, second of all, anyone who is interested in what I or you are doing these days somewhere in the world could just go on-line (c'mon, almost every one has net in 21st century, or at least I hope you do;))
Well, talking about my nowadays life I can just briefly say: I'm in the middle of the USA in the place which is not much different from Flekke. Moreover, I found it funny that from UWC I droped to WC which can be understood like "World College" or as an abriviation on toalet sign or in reality it means Westminster College, located in Fulton, MO. It is another Flekke, seriously, but at least in Flekke we had shuttle going Dale or something... here, I hardly can go to "Dale" (Columbia - nearest big city) simply because I'm not american and I don't have a car. Eh, I wish I did... But anyways, this place is not that bad. It's pretty and the climate in here is mild lovely quite often, so we don't freeze during the winter: it hardly snows here, not like at home in Moscow where it's almost -40 C :S (eh, Marta, it's much more colder since you were here with -20 C...) It had never been that cold since long time ago, I mean yeah, I remember -20 but no more than that :S brrrrr, don't even want to think about being cold. Fulton's weather is nice enough to make me shiver when I hear minus something :)
If you don't know, I'm telling you a secret: Fulton, specificly Westminster College is the place where Churchill gave his Iron Curtain Speech!!! Yeah-yeah, that's true and moreover, this March we are going to celebrate it's aniversary and as it's seems so far, we are expecting Bush to be present during such a day... Oh, I wish I could look into his face and say everything I've been holding for so long, but I doubt they will allow us to even look at him... he is too cool...
However, March is not soon, so I'll just stop dreaming and write about my regular life for almost half a year. My first semester in a very different environment, different country, different system...., was an experience. Adoptation period haven't finished yet and I don't think it will, coz there are so many things I can't get used to, I'm dissagree with. What helps me a lot is having some of RCNUWCs here and other wonderful international students, otherwise life would be hell. One othe most memorable things that happened to me right in the beginning of fall semester is going to the Coldplay concert!!!! They were amazing as always! Wonderful songs, good voices, great show and a lot of fun. Honestly, we were almost the only ones who were enjoying the show standing and dancing, the rest weren't even up. How is it possible to enjoy the such a concert with such an anthusiasm! (sarcasm). I will never forget it! " I LOVE COLDPLAY!!! " he he he he ......
To be continued.... later...
