Shimatta

Today i worked not a single bit, and that’s sad. But at least i got a reply from my american exchange partner. So i think i’ll be writing a nice long mail this evening. Well, after having dinner and doing my gym session and spending a nice long cooldown time under the shower (joke – i never use more water than neccessary; after all, i’m a Greenpeace activist or whatever). What did i do then instead of my job? Good question, but i have the answer ready, the truth: i’ve been chatting with friends on msnmsgr, watched four episodes of Shakugan no Shana, which i find simply great, though far not as addictive as some others, and played chess and checkers with my little brother. It was fun, i won all chess plays and lost all checkers – my only excuse from this is that this was my first time i played checkers. I had some good situations, but i did some foolish beginner’s mistake in every each of them so that i lost. But it was an experience, and i hope that after a few more plays i may be able to win. Oh, the title means something along the “lines” of “damnit”, referring to that i haven’t worked even though i intended to.


Fáradt

Nahát… ideje már magyarul is írnom, nehogy valaki még azt feltételezze, hogy most már csak angol bejegyzések fognak érkezni. Szóval, egy cseppet fáradt vagyok, és már megint nem dolgoztam semmit (még). Ez utóbbin persze még változtatni fogok, de az előbbin már csak majd este. A fáradtság oka pedig, hogy bringázni voltam, és ez egy cseppet kimerített, mivel Salgóra tekertem ki, az meg igencsak kiadós hegymenet odafelé (ebből következik, hogy visszafelé harmicas átlagú pihenés)… azóta WarCraftoztam egyet a zöcsémmel, benyomtam két nagy szelet mexikói pizzát, és most blogolok. Aztán majd meglássuk, valószínűleg (biztosan) melózni fogok. Jó lesz.


Always look on the bright side of life

In one of my favourite movies, Monty Python’s Life of Brian, the ending scene has a really good song. But later about that. How i arrived here? I simply can’t get it how can people feel low when it’s summer and everyone should be happy and cheerful, going out partying with friends, or working till you suffocate in your sweat, but still, smiling… Or am i only crazy? Can be, since i know quite well that there are times when i also feel down, but i try to avoid them (i think this is natural), and at least force myself to cheer up. Yeah, word by word. The best method for that is watching anime. At least for me. Even if it’s something deep and gloomy like Haibane Renmei, still it can kind of erase my own gloomy thoughts. And also, if the Pythons say something, it must be so. And thus: “Always look on the bright side of life!” – even though “Life’s a piece of shit, if you look at it…” – but be happy. Don’t know the movie? No matter.


Longest

I’m refreshing, or rather rebuilding the music collection on my MuVo. This time i’m putting on the longest songs and tracks i have on my laptop. Funny is that half of the songs longer than ten minutes are by Dream Theater. I had to sort it so that i could have some diversity. Or, as Entwine has an album titled that: diEversity.


Island

I’d go out on the Sziget fest for the sake of three bands, but naturally all three are on different days. Just my luck. By the way, the bands would be Within Temptation (wednesday), Soulfly (thursday) and Hammerfall (next tuesday). One day ticket is quite much expensive, i could hardly afford going on all three. What should i do?


30Q

Egy kicsit bekattant ez a két szám mostanában… A barátaimmal a balatonon együtt töltött hét eredményei.


Visa

I’ve just arrived home half an hour ago. Fine. In the morning, i left for the 6:40 bus, which arrived at the capital at about half past eight. We got to the embassy soon before nine. The fun part was that there was about one and a half hour delay of some curious reason, so we got in only a few minutes before noon. Then we still had to wait a couple of minutes, until a nice administrator lady fetched all the required papers, and told me to wait until i’d be called to a talk. Well, that talk was something like this:

Administrator: Please put both index fingers on the screen.

After i did so

Ad.: Thank you.

Me: That’s all?

Ad.: Yes. Good bye, have a nice day.

Me: Good bye.

After that, we could leave. Luckily we caught the 13:15 bus back home, so i could have lunch at 3 pm. After that i went to the library with a friend, wrote down some japanese excercises, then had a very big talk. I arrived home starving and half asleep. Since then i’ve eaten and also solved my starvation’s problem with two huge sandwiches. Sleepyness is still present, even though i’ve slept both to and back on the bus. Not that serious though.


Rutin

Megvolt. Az elméleti kérdésnél azt hittem, hogy meg fog húzni, de átengedett. Igyon motorolajat, aki kitalálta (mármint a motorolajat).


Troublesome

Tomorrow i’d have my exam in first aid for my driving licence, but instead, i’ll have to go to the capital to the american embassy to get my visa for my autumn visit (exchange program) to Chicago. Thus i’ll have to delay my exam, find another date somewhere else in the county, and somehow manage to pass. Doesn’t matter. Much.

By the way, the thing i’ve been thinking about is that why does hungarian people need a visa to go to the USA? It’s been really long since there were so many emmigrants, back in the first decades of the communist era… Strange, especially because US citizens can visit Hungary without visa. Thanks a lot! Is that your equal policy or whatever? Eat it.


Rend

Na akkor most írok egy jó kis napirendet magamnak, mert egyszerűen tarthatatlan, hogy folyton csak lopom a napot és nem csinálok semmit. Aztán még írok arról is, amit maat kérdezett kommentben (és még sokan mások, máskor, máshogy).
