I´m not some kind of big fan of this commemoration but I´m not against it. When I was single I wasnt the typical hater("fuck it, stupid american holiday, valentine´s day sucks, booo"). The only thing I´ve usually noticed was that on Valentine´s day I felt more lonely. But I´m a festival lover so I enjoy every occasion for celebration. Festivals were held since the beginning of the time because people wanted to make some days more special to appreciate certain things more and celebrate that they were lucky, healthy or the crops were good that year etc. And they celebrated by many kinds of rituals- including special clothes, food and even some tattoos(honestly I love this part!). And we should held these traditions and do something special to make our stereotyped and sometimes hard days better and bearable. And when I see the facebook madness about this day.. it makes me laugh..Especially when some people are trying desperately to show everyone that they dont care about this really stupid holiday at all. But you can see how much they actually do.
Today I was with Lenny for a while, he gave me cookies - already opened(Lenny: "well your cat has tried to eat them!" haha) and beautiful roses! And tomorrow I am going to bake a gingerbread and maybe cook some hot raspberries with vanilla ice( Because everyday is a Valentine´s day for us, haha:).And my gift for him(except the little knick knack I didnt take a picture off) was this card(haha) :
I have mixed feelings about this day. I had 2 work interviews and I dont think that I made an imperssion. I have such a strange feeling about it. On the first interview they were really cold and acting like I am total dumbass(and I didnt do anything wrong) and on the second one I had to wait in with other candidates and then I had about 2 minutes to tell my experiences and that was all. I guess she was already decided who she wanna hire.. So thats the bad part. And now the awesome part! I was for first time in my life I was lucky in second hand shop. I got these awesome pin up retro navy dress for few crowns! yay! Then I went to my new favorite restaurant for a lunch with my friends, Lenny brought 2 boxes for me - in first there was some excersice machine for hips and waist and in the second one there was this awesome cardigan. Then I bought about ten pens refills ( because I collected these lovely pens during my school years and I just love them. Btw I have had the yellow one since I was 7-8 years old!)and the shop assistant gave me a pen for free(because I made such a big deal, hahaha)so that was really nice and thats why it was my first random act of kindness for today and the second one was when my mum made a pudding for me.I´m such a lucky person!.)
There were actually some light moments in these crappy days. But firstly back to the crappy moments. Do you know the Murphy laws? Thats happening to me all the time and I can tell you that the small things drives me really crazy because since the big failure( fail in history exam and leaving my school) I am a little bit sensitive(ok, A LOT). So these little everyday failures that happens to everyone is leading in mind always to :" why me? dear lord, why?? whyyyyy?" haha, crazy, I know. Like yesterday I was at Lennys and have the plan to go the other day(today) to the Labour office to fill some papers (like it isnt already enough annoying, right) and I noticed in the deep night that i dont have my ID so I cant go right from Lennys to the Office but to take a bus, go home, take an ID and go back to city. So I did it and guess what! I couldnt find my ID. Not funny. For the whole year is my ID in my wallet and I dont use it at all. But when I need it, its gone. I didnt have any idea where it could be. So I took the passport and went to that damned office to find out that I cant sign it without ID("why?why me?"-see? those situations). To summ it up - really successful day! Another big change- I moved from Prague, I am looking for a new job but in this sleepy hollow called Olomouc its such a big problem. Now some good things that happend to me! Some time ago I decided to buy some rings(cause I dont have any.I have only some rings from early teenage years which look kinda lame) and earrings(those because I stopped wearing plugs and my ear holes got back to normal size) and all of it on ebay because here you cant usually find pieces so nice and so cheap(especially here in sleepy hollow). I found those which had free shipping and I bought all of it for maybe 15 dollars..(I bought a new panda piercing but I dont have it at home yet)
"golden"
"silver"- actually I bought these in Prague but I wear them nowadays so what- it belongs here
holy plugs
And I´ve bought a delicious tea today - herbs for nervous people, haha. Its perfect for me.
