I had a bad dream last night. I was looking for You! When I woked up You were not beside me. I asked everybody about You in the hostel but nobody could help me. Finally I went with my best friend when she observed You through the park somewhere in Prague. You were smiling at me and you calmed me you went only for shopping. What was really horrible that nobody seen You and I had no idea where I could find You!
Yesterday I heard something interesting in the radio. There is an old lady who gives 1000 HUF from her little suitcase for everyone in the streets. Her little story began in 1956, when a Hungarian man escaped to Yugoslavia after the death of the revolution. He asked the lady for a room till his friend come and save him to the USA. She told he was very handsom, and stayed for 3 weeks in her house. They kept in touch for years. The man became a very successful business man in North-America (what is not so special among Hungarians, e. g. George Soros). Before his death he asked the lady to come back Hungary and divide all of his riches among the Hungarians. The old lady said not everyone takes her money, some people are afraid of a trap. It is not common just to give and nothing wait in return.
The European Union's court made the decision. The 'Tokaji' name use only for a special white wine, which come from the Tokaj Valley. Before, the Italians claimed that the Tokaji is a kind of vine what they produce on the Italian fields as well. They asked for using the name also but the Hungarian Republic denied it. From March the Tokaji is egal with an original Hungarian, high-quality white wine.
Today I passed my economics of enterprises exam. It was one of my hardest and one of the best as well. The professor was pretty correct and I felt I am not a student, actually I was a partner in a discussion. At the end we were talking about the student life in Prague and his impressions in Iowa. I wish I had all of my exams like this. Instead of rattle a lot datas and numbers. Viva les professeurs!
Today during my exam preparation this song was in my mind. I am already after the biggest part of my work. I am so bored and tired as well. So I was singing 'everything will be alright tonight'. . . and try to keep my attention.
This video presented by the super talented Peter Novák (made the stage adaption as well) and the 'Mega Star' Ibolya Oláh. Their little play made this song special what is actually not so.
Yesterday was the fourth day when the demonstrators went out and made chaos in the main streets of Budapest. They said that they will do this every night till Gyurcsany with his government leave the parliament. Unfortunatelly he is not so gentleman as other politics in Europe. I hope he won't wait while the hooligans totally destroy the reputation of Hungary. We are already not very a nice country in the eye of the EU.
Tomorrow I supposed to pass my economics exam with two Erasmus students. We fixed the date with the Professeur also. I studied already 4 days long. I was full of datas and figures when this noon Kata called me that they asked the teacher to delay the exam to the next week. . . Hrrrrrrr!!!! because they could not be ready for tomorrow. Of course I cannot go alone only with the others. I hope I pass all of my exams till the deadline!
This evening we walked together with Durcás. She's a pretty retriever lady. It was kind of funny when Berci followed everywhere Durcás. (of course he loves her ^_^) The tour was 2 times longer than usually. I was wondering he was not tired at all. Even if he is 4 years older than her.
About 1 month ago the ministry of traffic asked the people on the net to vote for the name of the new bridge in Budapest. There was no added a list, so anyone could vote for anybody. Some weeks they delineated the result. Chuck Norris and Stephen Colbert are in the first 2 places! About 17 million people voted for Colbert across the USA. I found a video when the Hungarian ambassador gave to him the document of the result, and reviewed what are the conditions to become the name of the bridge.
I just began my school on Monday but I am already full of work. I still have 4 exams and the teachers also gave a couple of things for the next week. I wished many times I could be still in Prague. Instead of studying stupid things what I won't use ever in my life.
In these days it is impossible to drive in my town. All of the main streets are so horrible. Before you had to make a slalom among the big holes on the road. And now all of them will be repaired at the same time. This morning I wanted to cross the town, it was 15 minutes 3 times more than before. So I was late from my school.

Why it makes me nervous? It was not urgent in the last 4 years. Just now before the local commune election. (1st Oct.) Come on, guys!
A very nice and attractive village for tourists. In the summer season is full of German and Polish tourists who come with their trailers and spending a couple of weeks with riding and cycling in the Great Plain. I like to be here, it has a special aura and only 30 km from my town.

Every evening we are going for a 'great' trip across the streets. It is always a pleasure walking with my dog. He never does what I want, and turns to the other way. I am forgiving with him in these days, he is in love. ^_^
Today I was worried about my blog so much. I already switched to the Beta. It has a lot advantages, if you want to personalise your blog, but the HTML text are very bad. It is not the same as the old one. You could just paste text before, but it is not working now. Unfortunately, I found another one fault and I am not alone with it. I wanted to post picture on my blog, but it was not appeared. It was the same with the URL. I thought I should return to my old one. It is good that I did not do. Someone adviced in Blogger Help Group the Internet Explorer. Huh, it is working! I hope the Blogger will find the cause very fast!
This evening I came back from the tour. It was particularly interesting even if I am not interested in animal husbandry. First day we visited a broiler chicken farm. It was very modern with the newest technologies. I did not know before that French are very good at broiler-industry. All of the feeds, machines and also the chicken types are from France. We also went to pig and cattle plants. But they were not so impressive for me than the first one. Maybe these chickens are not so taste (I am sure they are not), but it was good to see this high-level production.
In these 3 days we visited the most important points of the North-East Hungary. Including Tokaj, Szerencs, and Lilafüred. We were only 20 km from the Rumanian and only 10 km form the Unkranian border while we were examined a Charolais farm. It was very beautiful landscape near to the Carpathian Mountains. Unfortunately, I was afraid to take my camera, I was not sure in the safety of the accommodation. I made a map to present all of the places!
I am making my packages. Tomorrow I go for a 3 day practical trip with my school. I am not so happy for it. I am full of exams. The economics and accounting are waiting for me. But I had to delay everything to spend a half week with sightseeing and visiting some plants. I don't believe that it will help me to find my job. This part of agriculture are not my business at all. On the other hand I prefer to avoid meeting with my classmates. I am not ready for embarrassing questions about Prague. Damned funny was when a girl asked me if I studied the courses in Czech. I hope I will not get the same tomorrow. I am not sure if I had enough patient for them.
