these few days

i can't exactly recall me being so stress-free for a long time! yes, i am aware that stress in good in an optimum level but lately the stress my peers and i are experiencing are towards the toxic level. and i am also well aware that the only difference between a cure and a poison is the dose. *applause*

Trip to the zoopark

neways...what have i been doing for the pass few days being exam-less? (at least for the time being).. after sleeping, and sleep somemore, and even more... and watching movies and series i missed - i watched 14 episodes of gossip girl in just one day!

oh, ironically, i had (still have) a great time cooking! the day before yesterday Jonas and i made lasagna, i have to compliment the local cheese (Nizhegorodski) here. at first i bought it because it was cheap, then we found out that it taste ok too - with our lovely lasagna. and yesterday we made emporer's chicken - awesome! makes me wonder - why didn't i try it earlier?
and today - we made Sheperd's Pie. in fact today was a busy cooking day for me because we also have a small pot luck gathering, so i have to prepare some food. but it's all worth it cuz the Sheperd's pie was awesome and i had a great time during the gathering! but anyway, i won't make it at home because i am going to turn on my lazy mode. hahaha..

these few days are also spent partly by sending my friends off. i wanna go home too! but i know my time will come soon. come to think of it, this place has become my second home and the people here are like my family (the nice ones of course)...so im going to miss this place too. and especially the litle kitty here!! gosh, i am so going to persuade mummy for a pet! i mean not a hamster kinda pet but like dogs or cats or rabbit!

this year - my third year, is very memorable for me. of course, mistakes and dots (many of them) here and there but then again, we NEVER learn from our success but we ALWAYS learn from our mistakes. i am much closer to my Jonas, my roommate and my groupmates now compared to last time. yada yada yada......

till then - i cant wait to go home! but for these 2 weeks i am going to have a great time here in Nizhny Novgorod *im single again*...im going with my remaining girlfrens here to the Philharmonic here at the Kremlin, shopping at Mega, trying out nice cafes, playing with lil Valya, exploring new shops here...and oh yea, have to prepare for my exam that i left behind (ooooppppssss....this is when i state again that stress at an optimum level is good for us!)
