post-examination relaxation

so i finally took the business studies exam on friday. it was rather difficult, but i managed to write something on each question. results to be announced due to end of june. i hope to pass it. though, you never know what's gonna happen. as they say in poland: hope is a mother of the foolish (nadzieja matką głupich).

the weekend was quite relaxing. i didn't do much. mostly unwinding, watching dvd movies, sitting on the sofas in a messy kitchen of 7/2, seeing ed get stoned again and irish steven trying to speak with italian accent. haha! i also went to work for five hours yesterday to the café in the gallery of modern art. need to put by some £££'s for the next year. it wasn't busy at all so it was easy money to earn.

believe it or not, it's almost 9:30 am right now and i've been awake for more than an hour. the reason? yeah, my friend ola is coming to visit me in edinburgh today. i gotta collect her from the airport around 2-ish. before that, i have to tidy my room, do the laundry, do the shopping and all that stuff. i've got a terrible mess in my room, so it will take me hours to clean it all up. looks like i need to get down to work... gaaah!

stuff

uhhh! i'm fed up with revising. i can't study anymore. my mind is already overfilled. it's like a sponge that cannot take any more water. so far i've gone through strategic management and finance. tomorrow i'm doing marketing.

i had a great night yesterday but it cost me a lot today. how come? well, we (me, charley, sophie, alice, katie, steven, phil, liam, chris, paul and ewan) went to le monde and espionage. i don't remember what was the reason for that monday go-out. something connected with paul and his philosophy girlfriend... don't know. the result was that i got completely drunk. and not only me. i had a really good time though, but... i've been suffering from a heavy hang-over today. and, as usually, i promised myself not to drink that much anymore. i wonder how long i'll manage to keep the promise.

back to the 'burgh

so i came back to scotland on friday a week ago. not much has happened in my life since then. i have done a little bit of a revision for an exam in business, which i am sitting on friday, april 27th. to be honest, i don't care about the mark. i only want to pass it. the exam's structure isn't that bad. there will be 8 questions, each concerning a different module i took this year. i'll have to choose 4 questions and write short essays on the chosen modules unless they are quantitative (for example in finance or management science).

what else? i was working on three days this week. nothing special, apart from one thing. on thursday i was serving at a party in the scone palace in perth. the party was thrown by the earl of mansfield who was the palace's owner. his two daughters were present there. one of them was very pretty. gaaah, she was beautiful!!! she came down to kitchen a couple of times, as she was bored of the event and company of old, grumpy lordly people, so i had a chance to talk to her. her name was isabella murray, a year younger than me (she is doing classics at the university of edinburgh). huh! i couldn't stop myself from staring at her. that night she cast a spell on me. i was like a fool and feeling so small... yeah, i met a princess, a real one. it was almost like a dream. i guess i could have fallen in love with her if i had stayed there a few hours longer.

i heard a patrick nuo's song on the radio today:

"she's so
beautiful beautiful beautiful beautiful beautiful
beautiful beautiful beautiful beautiful beautiful
magical, mystical, irresistible, cosmical
a wonderful overkill and most of all beautiful
ooooh ooh ooh!"

these words reminded me of isabella. who knows? maybe one day i'll have a chance to see her again...

last moments in poland

today i'm enjoying my last moments in poland. tomorrow, early in the morning i'm going back to scotland. my flight to edinburgh is at 8:00 am, which means i'll have to set my alarm clock for 5ish. sucks!

i came to warsaw yesterday. i took a coach from belchatow, ahhh never again. it lasted more than 3 hours to get to here. in the evening i met gosia (my friend from belchatow who studies in warsaw) and we went together to hard rock cafe. we spent there two hours sitting at a bar, chatting and drinking.

i haven't done much today, mainly watching tv. i'm gonna miss polish soap opras sooo much! i also ate most of the food stock in emilia's and ola's fridge (i stayed in their flat overnight). oh, one useful thing i actually did today was exchanging some zlote's into great british pounds. yeah, very useful, haha! don't have any plans for the evening. i guess i'll visit my brother piotrek. maybe we'll go to a cinema. we'll see...

happy easter!

a very happy easter to everyone :) ... oh, as well get your water guns ready and watch out tomorrow, it's a 'wet monday' !!!

well, i've been to poland for more than a week. i haven't done much. yeah, but this is what a holiday season is about: relaxing and resting. i've met many of my friends and, generally, had a good time. they say in poland: it is good to be anywhere else, though it is always best to be at home (wszędze dobrze, ale w domu najlepiej). so true! i'm coming back to edinburgh early in the morning on friday. not many days left, yet enough time to enjoy it with my friends. i haven't got many plans for tonight, but i'm sure i'll go somewhere out in the evening, either to 'manhattan' club or '7 sins'. still a matter to be discussed. i've heard that many people are going to the 'manhattan', so it's quite likely i'll be there too. we'll see.

oh, my grandfather has just arrived. i'll cut this post now and go downstairs. bye!
