Loving Mondays

Mondays are great. It's becoming a tradition that every monday I end up at my first Tartu home - the dormitory and room I moved in 6 years ago when entering to the university. It brings up cool memories of commune life - the times of "the apartment with 4 rooms and a long corridor"; late night girl talks; open door days; icecream or chocolate cookies from Favora gas station at 2.30 am; 3 course meals with red wine, evening dress and if lucky also personal waitress; trying to figure out the best solution for furniture layout; half a meter long indoor tree with only 3 leaves on the top; fighting about the choice of music or radio station, computer errors and nice next door guys fixing them, cups of coffee at the window sill, sleeping for five minutes etc etc.

I moved out 4 years ago and I still feel home there. But the best part of the room are obviously Lage and Lill, who somehow doesn't seem to get bored of me hanging around there, babbling about my small joys and myseries, them making coffee for me and telling all about their life happenings. Hah, moreover - lately the place has become my personal beauty saloon, which is great reason to show up there again and again!

So guys, thanks for being there and making my Mondays work well! Life with friends like you is so much more colourful and inspiring. Hope, it lasts forever :)

Mamma Mia

If you ever get a chance to see the musical based on ABBA's best hits - Mamma Mia! - go and see it. Funny, cool, lovely, good music, excellent work of actors, nice costumes and everything else that comes with it. Just relaxing way to spend the night. I enjoyed it to the max. But maybe it was because it was the longest planned family event I've had - we had the tickets almost half a year ago already :P

Unfair

Every time I start feeling that my life is allright and bright something happens that drags me down totally. Today's highlight is getting to know how far is the selection process for my dream traineeship... Well, just for info - I applied for an excellent traineeship on 25th of March. And as global exhchange partnership traineeships are always very much wanted I was not surprised if I didn't get any response. But more than two weeks of silence is too much even if there are hundred applicants and I wrote to TN manager today. And it came out that THEY NEVER RECIEVED MY APPLICATION!!! It just doesn't fit to my logic that these things happen. I would be cool if the competition was higher than the experience and knowledge I have to offer or if I failed to prove my suitability for the position or even if they had decided they want a man. But it hurts so much that I just missed my chance and the company didn't even see my CV and motivation letter where I put half of my soul!!! Oh, I guess I'm a bad loser, but at least I'm trying to convince myself that everything is good for something, wven if I don't realise it now.
