Many things happen... I guess.
It is quite hot, but it will end soon as the weather Pythias tell us. I watch some nice anime called Hitohira and feeling fine.
I would like to learn Suomi and go to Finland some time. It would be nice.
Anyway, exams are coming within the 25 days and I have to prepare for the really really good to have a summer free of any studies of law and then I will devote it to myself and my interests and my desires. Muahaha.
*settling off to make a new tada list on summer time
Bye-nee!

My Sore Eyes
I have finished reading 'Bridges of the Madison County' this evening. Talked to my parents of my and only my problems.
I'm thinking about the people I have and will encounter in my life.
Somehow, unwillingly I get more and more attached to people, I am getting soaked into the social life of the faculty through all this writing work and internet projects. And I'm not sure whether I like it or not. I guess I am more frightened by that than irritated.
I suck.

My Successful Day
It was successful because:
I feel like I'm hungry for books now, so I'm going to finish The Da Vinci Code tonight.
bye-nee!
- I went to the library and got my books' cards renewed so I will have those studybooks till 6 June
- I got 'Excellent' for my course work (in her review she used the word 'сумбур' and I got irritated a little bit because I would spell it like 'сумбурность' at least
- I had too much of prof. Polyanski today and I had to bite my finger not to cry out like a madman =) 'Thank you (short pause)
you are not right' _-_ He makes me smile every time I see him because that's just umf~ how he behaves X)

My trembling hands
My hands are trembling whenever I think about making some decisions that may change my future. And yet again - there are so many opportunities that I am lost and scared.
I wanted to write on what's going on in my life.
Now I have some things to do:
1. finish all the anime that I once began watching (long-termed)
2. prepare for summer exams (long-termed)
3. meet professor and talk over my course work (at once!)
4. sort out my thoughts and feelings about life (long-long-termed)
5. speak up at every seminar (permanent)
And yet I feel like my life is going out of control and I let it be so.
I also thought about why I do not meet people from school - whether it is my fault or it is circumstances or our friendship was not that stable and strong. I guess that is my unwilling to be with people... or something else - you cannot be sure of this.
Now I'll finish my studies of theory (I'm scared to death of the upcoming exam - yet I do not prepare for seminars) and then I'll go to bad.

Ignorance vs. Knowledge: Quotes
Ignorance is not innocence but sin.
Robert Browning 1812-89: The Inn Album (1875)
Knowledge is good. It does not have to look good or sound good or even do good. It is good just by being knowledge. And the only thing that makes it knowledge is that it is true. You can't have too much of it and there is no little too little to be worth having.
Tom Stoppard 1937- : The Invention of Love (1997)
G. K. Chesterton 1874-1936: Heretics (1905)
Now, what I want is, Facts...Facts alone are wanted in life.
Charles Dickens 1812-70: Hard Times (1854) Mr Gradgrind
All experience is an arch to build upon.
Henry Brooks Adams 1838-1918: The Education of Henry Adams (1907)
Education is when you read the fine print; experience is what you get when you don't.

All you need in this life is ignorance and confidence; then success is sure.
Mark Twain 1835-1910: letter to Mrs Foote, 2 December 1887
For also knowledge itself is power.
