Jan 27, 2010 - Simple, Isn't It?

You know, baseball is a national American game. But it is almost nowhere played in Russia.

Now, I'm trying to understand how people play the game.

I found some movies of baseball games and one cartoon on youtube. I couldn't help laughing watching it. Especially the moment since 1 min till 1:30 min. Here it is:

Jan 1, 2010 - Happy New Effort!

Happy New Year!

Tonight, I went to bed not late, and decided to awake at 7 a.m. and start the day with morning exercises and skiing. And I did it!

The third decade of December was connected with my sport efforts. But that was not regular. Now, I want to limit myself more strictly. I am going to wake up at 7 o'clock in the morning every day, and go to bed between 10:30 and 11:00 in the evening.

This morning, I'd started doing my morning exercises three times before I finally was able to do them. The body is yet not completely awoke when you are washing yourself, make the bed, and so on. Therefore, you shouldn't start doing it right after awakening. Wait a bit. But for that you need to wake up at least a half an hour earlier than you are used to.

After that I had my breakfast, surfed a bit on the internet, and then skied. It's such a great pleasure to ski in the morning! I wish you all to feel it!

Dec 27, 2009 - Walking

Sure, walking can change the world. They say, centuries ago the world was better... I think, it was that because people walked much more then.

Walking is one of the best ways to overcome bad mood. But my advise is to return after walk to a different place. I mean, not there where the source of your bad mood is or even was, but to somewhere else.

It's great if there's a place where you can always stay for a night (alone or with someone). The worst thing here is if the sourse is at your own home, and you don't have such a place or you've gotta return home because of some other reason.

So, the moral of this is that you have to take care of such kind of place, where you could always stay alone after any conflict, and that you should always try to walk when you've got low spirits.

P.S. The photo evokes the feeling of changing the life to the better as you walk from turn to turn.

Dec 25, 2009 - Volleyball Training

Today, I again got my training in volleyball :)

There were more people there, today. And they were more professional than the previous time!

It was much more interesting to play with them!

And one more thing... I want to congratulate all the people who celebrate Christmas, today! I wish you joy every day in the coming year!

Dec 20, 2009 - Skiing

Today morning I started with morning exercises, about which I have forgotton for almost one year.

The soundtrack of the day became Start of Something New. This really cheered me up!

In the day I decided to finally start skiing this winter. And I did it! Some photos from my snow-covered village are below:
