After Another succession of exams life is still beautiful

It happened again, I know! I had a couple of exams at the beginning of September again (are you tired of reading about exams?! cause I certainly am!!) and took almost two weeks of annual paid leave to prepare. Yes, I was engaged in overcoming these two obstacles day and night so had no time for my blog! Sorry!

Now I am back and partially satisfied - not completely because I wanted to take my exams with As and I did not! Grr! However, looking from the bright side (as optimists do) I managed to raise my overall grade marks!! As a result, you can imagine how exhausted and squeezed I feel - only three days of my whole 20 days annual paid leave are left. So all in all, no sea or mountain holiday for me this year!! :-(

I hope to relax a bit during the forthcoming 4-days weekend, though. Here in Bulgaria Sept 22 is the National Independence Day so we are all having a day off. It is combined with the Monday before that since there is no point in going to work, then having a day break and then back to the office, right?! So I am off to Karlovo to visit my parents and get pampered. ;-) This time is not an ordinary visit since Andrew asked (notice: I invited him twice but he turned down the invitation somehow, so I gave up mentioning it to him any longer. Now it was him to ask me to come with!) to join so today I got the tickets and we are both leaving very very early Saturday morning!

As you might already noticed, a bunch of things here happen at once. My brother is here for a week! He is like a whirl! What a mess my room is! On the top of all the boyish lifestyle (I have to put up with), my din is stuck with all the stuff from his room since a friend of mine moved into my brother's room earlier this month (side note: there is no need for my brother to pay for rent since he is no longer living in Bulgaria). Could you just imagine a small place like my room is (around 15 sq m) stuffed with the luggage from both of us! Oh, that resembles more and more our life in Studentski grad (Students' town) where three of us lived in a room! wow - how! Don't want to remember that place! Also, I am not going to post pictures of this tiny place that is now turned into a warehouse! We are literally, however, switching for our stay in the room and it is not getting both of us together! He is coming back during the early hours of the night, since he is running against time to see all his friends here, and wakes up well after me going to work! Pity is it there is no time for us to get together! Ah! Sigh! And you are guessing it right, we are sharing one bed for this week. Luckily, my bed is big enough to embrace both of us but I would say only for a week, no longer! ;-) No matter how dirty and awfully stuck my room is, what matters is that my brother is here ! I could not be happier to see him around! (even most of the time asleep! ;-))

So, in a nutshell, those are the most important things running around! All the previous several weeks were blunt indeed - trust me - occupied with studying from dawn to dusk! Now having more time to relax I believe I will find more time for the blog as well! So, see you soon!

I have not been blogging much either - with the start of school and all of our activities, I just haven't found the time!! Have a great mini-vacation!
