New Year's party! ^^

I'm gonna host a party for New Year ^^ I'm posting photos of it later, promise (sun)

Waiting for Christmas :)

Last Christmas I gave you my heart... What?! Wait, wait, wait... The Christmas fever seems to have gotten to me ^^ Anyway, all these things about the Christmas spirit and all are so fun ^^ I love how people are so crazy about it while I simply enjoy their madness :D

Sooner than I thought XD

Hey, it just occured to me... I've been writing about all kinds of things here, but never mentioned anything more about myself except what I study and who my closest people are! XD I'm lame!

I'm going to translate the ten facts about me I wrote for facebook's "60 days photo challenge", because I'm a lazy ass XD Here they go:

1. I guess you know what my name is already, so ONWARD! XD My favourite color is green... Maybe because I'm a HORRIBLY calm person.

2. The things I most cling onto are my family and friends and if there's something that can drive me crazy, that's them arguing.

3. I'm kind of gaga. XD If you take a look at my profile picture here, you'll be even more assured of it XD (that's not my hair, it's an afro wig I wore at a retro party!)

4. Relaxing after a hard day by slaughtering 1000+ people in some hack 'n slash game (Dynasty Warriors, for example, no matter which part)? Awesome!

5. Perhaps a better way to relax is only to hang out with friends at a park and/or a pub and have a beer. Prefered brands - Staropramen (Czech) and Shumensko (Bulgarian), lately Kamenitsa as well (also Bulgarian).

6. I LOVE cooking, although it's not always successful XD The more people there are to have spasms after my culinary experiments, the better (muahahahahah!) I also make some alcoholic drinks ^^

7. I can draw and people say I'm quite good at it, but I haven't drawn anything for a waaaay longer time than I want, so it's time I get my pencils moving :D

8. I also write fiction :) I have several essays and poems and a fantasy story I would like to publish once it's done :)

9. I love animals, especially wolves!

10. I collect minerals and gems. Right now I have approximatelly 100 specimens from 50 different types of minerals :)

Oh, and something more: the things I can't go without!

1. My cell phone

2. The knife.. The last thing I received from my father... Another reason why it's so dear to me is because it's twin-knife belongs to Stef (I gifted it to him a long time ago when we struck six months together... teehee)

3. My minerals collection. I know the name of each single one of them, but don't ask me how I remember them, because I don't know :D

4. My animal figures (all made of stone and all a gift from somebody, except the biggest wolf... It's a gift from myself to myself :P)

5. My favourite hematite jewel set (necklace, bracelet, earrings and ring) None of them was originally a set with any of the other, I compiled the set myself :) And yes, the earrings and the bracelet have magnetic properties... Which means I can never lose a single earring, just the two of them together :D

That's me pretty much :)

Hey there again :)

Hey guys, it's been quite a while :) There's been nothing so remarkable going on, so it's going to be a short one this time ^^

First of all, Stef's cat (Benny) is getting better and is now trying to use her hind legs properly. She still has some time to go until she's capable of walking, though.

The guys are having a concert at (in my opinion) Sofia's best club, "Rock Theatre" on Thursday (20th Oct, to be exact). They'll be playing along with another band, "Avatar", which they got to know from the fest "Grumnitsa" (the one they managed to organize themselves, remember? :) )

I'm going to have my first Chinese test next Monday... Keep some chants and mantras going on, so I don't screw it too badly ^^' I hope it's just that I'm anxious, not that I don't know the material...

That's pretty much all for now :) Bye till next time!

P.S. The first snow in Bulgaria fell this morning, no kidding :X Which means I'm going to break out in a folk and pagan metal wave again (pretty much the same happens every winter ^^') In that matter, here's something for you ;)

Hey Ho!

Howdy, people :) It's been a while, so here's what I've been up to:

Stef, Marian and I went to "Maskata" club ("The Mask") to wave some hair and limbs at the music of A-grupata (they play only covers of other rock & metal groups, but definatelly know how to get a party going). Due to too much headbanging my back, neck and legs felt a bit uneasy the next day, but it was worth it :) We spent one hell of a good time and the thing I liked most is something Marian said when a sappy ballad was playing and there were dancing couples all around us three, while we were hugged together (imagine the picture XD) and he said "Hey guys, what would have happened if I hadn't rang at the Military Club that other day, huh?"

Before you make the "What the hell is she talking about?!" look, I'll explain: Stef used to visit the Military club for drum lessons (he is Vriava's drummer, remember?), when Marian called them there because he was looking for a drummer to play music with. That was about three years ago, when I still didn't know them both :) They got separated for a year, because Marian started working, and that's where I came into the picture :P Which, in turn, explains why I know Marian for less time than Stef ^^

Anyways, you got what I meant now, right? And the reason why I felt what Marian said so heartwarming? :)

The next morning, however, started with an accident: we slept at Stef's place, and just when I was about to go home, his mother came to us looking very worried, because one of their cats (they have two black ones, a brother and a sister) was pinched under their car's front hood. When Stef got her out she was dead scared and couldn't move her hind legs :X We got sick worried and drove her to my vet (their wasn't working because it was Sunday) where she had an X-ray done on her spine and hips. It actually turned out she had no fractures at all and there were just some hematoms. :) That's a good thing, because she now stands a pretty good chance of recovery (if there had been a fracture on her hip joints or worst, her spine, it could've lead us to euthanizing her).

That's all for now, folks, I'll catch up with you later :)

The new beginning

Hi, I'm officialy a student now! It's been quite a week since I last wrote... I've barely had enough time to brush my teeth (literally)...

So, as I'm writing and you're reading, I've already had almost all my university subjects:
- Grammar (well, I guess you can't go without that, can you?);
- Hieroglyphics (There I'm learning not only the hieroglyphs themselves, but also how they've come to be and how they've evolved from pictograms to what they are today);
- Listening exercises (no explanation needed here, I guess);
- Linguistics (the conception of language and the sciense involved with studying it);
- Literature (not exactly, but this is the closest term I can think of by translating literally, and I can't give an explanation on what it involves as a subject, because we haven't had it yet).


Apart from univercity, I haven't got much time because of my dog Terry. Don't get me wrong, I love him very much and he's a sweet little critter, but being a pup still growing into a young adult, he is very demanding, plus he is still recovering from a car accident (he got away with just two broken teeth and a cracked leg bone... could've been much worse). Anyhow, there he is :) 

Oh, oh, oh, a chewbone!

What? I'm just watching you...

Such a cute little face ^^

His favourite sleeping pose

Just relaxing with his bandage still on... It's removed now.

When he isn't sleeping, he likes playing with random stuff at home (and he LOVES his rabbit plushie and empty kitchen paper rolls)...


That's from me for now, I need t go to bed, because I'm going to have my new ID card produced tomorrow and for that I need an early start :) Byes till next time I write (I'll try it to be sooner)!

First things come first

There goes the beginning of the blog :) Let me start with a few things... For instance, the people who made me (and keep making me) who I am. Tadaaaa!


My family
I currently live with my mother and sister plus our latest family member, who's been with us for less than a month - our dog Terry. I also have two grandmothers and two grandfathers, but they don't live with us. We still see each other quite often.

From left to right - mum, sis, me & little breedless Terry :)

My father, however, passed away less than a year ago from cancer after struggling with it for three long years. We all miss him greatly, especially me, since I considered him my closest person and everybody say I'm his lookalike in the family. He was going to turn fifty on 23rd Sep this year.


My friends
I can say I'm happy enough to have the best people around me I could imagine :) I'm telling you guys, I'd be lost without you ^^ I could say there are three main categories of my friends - childhood, high school and new :) So here they go:

Childhood friends (Sami, Galia & Marty)
Sami - He's the person I've known the longest, we've been best pals since I was 6 and he was 5 :) He has been with me in every situation you could imagine, as I have been with him :)
Galia - She is my first real friend from elementary school. It was a strange situation when we ended up in the same class, because we first met in our English course, where, for some reason, I thought she was a year older than me. Imagine my surprise when I saw her come as the new student in our class... My reaction was like "Wait, wasn't she third grade, not second, why is she here?!"
Marty - She's also been with me since first grade, but we became friends later. I can sincerely say that she is the person I've done the most crazy things with. She's the rebel of the company, always up for something new (most often not a good idea) and never hesitates to tell you something even if you might not like it, for which I thank her :)

And here we are being idiots, which means nothing's out of the ordinary... From left to right - me, Marty, Sami, Galia and my boyfriend Stef :)

High school friends (hi gals!)
Group number two :) We were a group of seven, but I can say I was closest with two of them:
Christie - Something's wrong with her in the head, I tell you :P Just kidding, she's like the sweetest person ever, always up for an all-night party or just a beer somewhere in the park.
Dallie - The diva of the bunch XD not really, she pretends to be of the I-giggle-at-everything type, but she can be quite serious if she wants to :) She's a sitcom addict (never watches less than three at the same time). She also likes to ironize "muffins" as we call it here, and parody their behavior. "Muffins" means girls who dress up like they're going to visit a client (if you know what I mean), wear tons of makeup and due to that even if they're fourteen years old they look like they're thirty four.

With Christie @ school

With Dallie @ the mall munching on some KFC, which happens to be one of my favourite sports XD

New friends (howdy, boys!)
Here comes the male company :) 
Stefo - The I'm-asocial-but-I'll-come-if-you-want type :) Always a volunteer to cheer me up or make me cry from laughing my head off :) I know it sounds weird, but that's him alright :)
Sasho - The psychologist of the bunch :) If you want to talk seriously about something or just discuss random things, he is your man. Apart from that, he has been supportative to me in some harsh moments, so thank you, Sashe ;)
Marian - The uprising rockstar XD kidding :P Along with my bf Stef and another fellow Spas they have a band called Vriava (considering which I'm a hysteric fangirl) A very, very wild person, yet sometimes serious when he decides he wants to discuss something, which makes him a prefect arguing partner for Sasho. I've seen them argue over something for days, I swear. Apart from that, he is very protective of his friends and never hesitates to help when needed.
Spas - Last, but not least :) He is my "newest" close person and I have yet to find out more about his personality. Still, there hasn't been a moment when I wasn't able to talk with him about anything :) Things just seem to go fine with him without any disruptions or disagreement. As far as I think, he has the closest personality to mine from all my friends :)

The crew XD From left to right - Spas, me, Sasho, Marian. Stefo, sorry, pal, but I have no recent pics of you :(

Stef
THE PERSON.  With capital bold letters. He is just about everything to me - soulmate, friend, partner. Since we've been together for two and a half years now, I can't imagine life without him anymore. He's been next to me in everything ever since - including my father's passing. I want to say so much about him, but nothing comes to mind. I know it, but I cannot write it or describe it. With him, things simply ARE.

We're like Yin and Yang... Literally XD

The joy of being together ^^

That's pretty much all for now :) I'll be back later :)
