About the winter time

This afternoon was not the first time when I was thinking about the meaning of the winter-time. Why we set back with 1 hour the clocks in every October? Maybe somebody likes to wake up in the dark (for me it is 6 am) and watching the sunrise. But I don't think there is any people who likes going home after the work in the dark at 4. ( or rather 5 according to the summer time) One time I've heard we can spare energy with this program: people will go to sleep earlier. If it is true why we stop working with 1 hour before, because now we use more energy, we have to put on the lights earlier. In other hand I was driving around 4. In Hungary this period is the most dangerous, especially in little towns (like mine!), many people are on the roads with bicycles and cars in the twilight, what makes them invisible. Year by year many news talking about casualties and car accidents. I hope the Western-states (who made this) will see it and find the solution!

The Wasabi in Debrecen

Some weeks ago I got into my postbox an ad about a new resto. The first sushi (Home Run Sushi as well) resto was opened in Debrecen! The Wasabi has already two in Budapest, and from now here. The first time was in Prague when I tasted the Japenese kitchen. (it was not love at first sight!) It has so much difference with the Hungarian meals. The most important the spices! After I went again in Budapest and I liked it what is not a suprise . . .

Last shining day

At times the autumn comes back only for a couple of hours to leave his taste here. This day was like this. I could not study, instead I went with my petite family to the warm bath. Our bath is still under construction, but there is a better one in the neighbouring town. 2 of the outside pools were filled up with warm water. One was for swimming (around noon was so special without any people!) and the other one for relaxing with 38 C°.

It was so good not thinking about the school and work. But it could not have been perfect without You!

Congratulation!

Only two weeks and Timi gets her official driving licence! I am so proud! She was working very hard and she was so stressed before all of the exams!

I am afraid I have to pass the wheel very soon^_^

The first snow shower

The frost came on Monday! The first sign was Berci who began to cry at dawn until the sun appeared behind the clouds. (he likes taking a sunbath all the day) Oh, it is so horrible! Last week I had only a shirt in the indian summer. But today my winter coat was nothing against the chilling wind what came directly into our face with Berci. Who just visit us in these days probably he feels like in Scandinavia. I hope it won't be the same in December. It would be so nice to have white Christmas.

Niina

About 10 years ago I found Niina's address in a magazine. I just began my English courses and I was happy to find somebody who also was looking for a mail-friend. It was quite slow via mail but the internet was not popular in that time in Hungary. It was like this till last summer when Niina informed me about her East-European tour. She wrote me about her journey with her friends through Lithuania, Estonia and Poland. I thought it is a great occasion to invite them and present my home. Unfortunatelly we had only 4 days to see everything. (luckily the Carneval of Flowers was involved)

Last evening I got a mail from Niina, she was in Prague to watch the worldchampionship of syncronized skating. So bad, she did not read my mail before she left Finland. We were in the same town even if we hadn't known about the other. I hope we could meet in the future.

Relaxing day

Today I finished one part of my business plan. (the animal husbandry) I plant a firm with 950 cows and 700 pigs. It was very interesting. In my opinion the only advantage what I got usage of the Excel and an ordinary pain in my back. This morning I woke up and I could not move my neck. Around noon it was so horrible and I decided to try the 'Spa' - service in my town. I had no a professional massage (since Yours, mon chéri). I have to say it was really bracing. Of course at first I had strong pain, my muscles were in little balls and I'm afraid I have a fatigue-fever tomorrow. It took only 20 minutes for 4,5 euros. It would have been perfect to finish it with a warm bath, but the swiming pool is under construction. I hope we can enjoy it very soon. The best is in winter when you get out from the outside warmbath (43 C°) and your body is steaming. I am looking forward to share this pleasure with You. ^_^

Last journey with my baby

This afternoon was our last with my little car. She was a part of my life from 2003 autumn. She was the first who helped me on the roads. She executed all of my stupid requests even if it hurt her. (Thanks Clio!) She was my teacher and now I must let her.

My perfect baby

Unfortunatelly I don't need it now and it is very costly for us to have her.
Yesterday four guys came and examined her carefully if she had any faults or misses. What was really unnecessary. The price was good in the ad and they liked it as well. Tomorrow one of them will come back and take her. ˇ_ˇ
My heart is broken but I know I have no other choice.

First ball at the high school

This evening is a great moment for my sister. The high school organized for the first-year-students the Fox-ball. (weird to say fox. we use stork for the new students, they are so fumbling as the bird with its long legs) She was so stressed before the departure (as usually). The hardest was to find the best dress and after the long lasting make up with my Chrystalline Eau de Toilette ^_^

Chestnut

Today was one of the last warm autumn days. It is time to collect some chestnuts and spend beautiful time in the nature!


'Is it enough?'

Sonja, Rebi and Timi are having sunbath for my sake

Downtown

Last night I found an old video from Petula Clark, Downtown. I began to listen the lyrics. She is singing about the downtown what is full of lights and fun where you can forget about everything. . . And after I thought it made in 1965. It was the American life! In the same time there was nothing like this in Hungary. In fact, there was really nothing. No place for dancing and having fun. No admission for going out as you like. These time the communism was the star. Everything was under (state)control for 40 years. Fortunatelly I just heard it from my grandparents but its impact is still in Hungary. How long do we need to recover after it? Is is possible at all?

To represent what we had to miss:

The mysterious lady

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.

Tonight

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.

Still chaos in Hungary

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.

According to the Washington Post

The newest heroe of Hungary

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.

First week

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.

This picture about Berci represents me now.
