Jan 29-31, 2010 - A Good Ending of the Month :D

I didn't write anything two previous days. But these days were the happiest in the month, I believe!

On Jan 29 I even had no time to make a note! Work, some home duties, singing, playing the piano, volleyball training, some sweets and ryazhenka for supper, and just a few minutes to look through the mailing before sleep. I like the rhythm!

It was a funny story on the day. After I had worn my tracksuit in the utility room of my classroom before the training, I closed the door with the padlock. And just having done it I realized that the key was left in the utility room... My coat, and mobile phone were left there as well. Thank my father and my student Sveta who let me call him I opened the door without breaking the padlock or the door :) That situation was a good lesson to me: even if you are happy and enjoy everything in the world, you still need to think over what you are doing ;)

The training was also good and happy. Though first it was boring to play, but then all the sluggishness disappeared and turned... well... to craziness! Sometimes we just fumbled, but the other times we were shouting, and yelling, and trying not to lose the ball! There's one thing that I like in our team best. After we are divided into 2 teams, we become the teams. We play together, we are happy for our victories. But we are all cheerful if we (or some of us) have progress in playing, even if the victory is not ours.

Yesterday was a day of working on my dissertation. I didn't do much in it. But I keep on working, and that's not bad! Some months before have passed without good progress in the research.

Also, yesterday I found the notes of the musical The Phantom of the Opera. So, I'm going to play one of the parts on the next Tuesday. I'm happy!

What about today?

I'm having a rest, and listening to music. Soon, I'm going to read a book that a friend of mine presented me this Christmas. I want to finally finish it.

And now, in the end, I wish the February would bring us joy every day (read: we would like to have joy every day and do something for that)!

Jan 28, 2010 - Sci-Move

Today, I moved on with my dissertation. There was a big time's gap in working on it. So, now, I'm tired but happy that I finally continued my research.

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 26, 2010 - Finally!

Finally, I feel satiate by playing the piano! How much I missed it!..

Jan 25, 2010 - Do Complain???

What mysterious things sometimes happen to me! After I have named the problem it becomes solved very fast.

I'd like to call it as a psychological phenomenon (see: not complaining but naming the problem). But today it was so funny to face such a case connected with rather material things. Yesterday, our water supply system froze. I mean, not in the town but only at us. Today, I said about it talking with teachers at work, and to Lidia from Poland. Very soon after that my father tried to disconnect a tap at the basement and couldn't do it. He decided to heat it, and having done this, he improved the whole water supply system!

Right! The ice stopper was right in the tap and nearby.

It's so good! Because otherwise, if the problem would be somewhere underground, we could do something only in a couple of months.

Jan 24, 2010 - A Telephone Call

It seems to be funny, but talking on the telephone may be more pleasant nowadays than other ways to contact. I mean, chatting, blogging, mailing.

Today, I telephoned to a good friend of mine who I usually mail with. And I felt the difference again.

And yesterday, I got a very interesting photo from my old comrade Olga. Here it is:

Those words in Russian mean 'The Chat Of My Childhood'. It is really what I miss so much.

Telephone to each other oftener. Better try to meet each other as often as possible. It'll bring you much joy.

Jan 23, 2010 - I love the world!

That's my feelings, and my photo against the background.
