Visit from Denmark

Last week my father, brother and sister were here to visit me. I was so good to see them again and it gave me a good excuse to go see all the tourist attractions in Chisinau. We went to two museums, the cathedral in the center and two of the markets. It wasn't that exciting but it was nice to be with my family again and to me i didn't really matter what we where doing. We also went to some resturants; twice to my favorite resturant where they serve pancake with all kind of stuff, La Placinte so they could taste some moldovan food and the resturant next to the place they lived. That place was called 'The Danish House' and was owned by danish people so maybe i'm not the only Dane in Chisinau. The place where very luxuary even compared to danish standards so I stayed at their place most of the week.

Im still playing badminton but I've been told that I can't play at the place with the handball court next to it because we where too many. It's a shame because I really liked it there. Not the settings but the people playing there. Fortunately Maxim has found another place where i can play but I haven't heard much about it yet. The tournament has been exposed once again so now it will be the 11th and 12th of november "for sure". :D

This weekend we will have a halloweenparty in my flat. it's on saturday so if you are a volenteer and read this you should know that you are invited. Dress code: of course :P

see ya all!

Winter

Last week i got a huge chock; I was walking around the city wearing my jeans and a t-shirt. The weather was good, 25 degrees and almost no wind, but then suddently there was a loud ' bang' and it turned into winter. It has been freezing cold ever since.

I didn't write on my blog last week so there is nothing about my birthdayparty, Ola and Marta's goodbuyparty, the "party" we had at my work, Samiras birthdayparty, the new place I play badminton or me being lazy watching 'How I met your mother' instead of writing a blog.

But first things first. I had a great birthday, after 8 p.m. Before that I was pissed of because of my computer. It wasn't working and I had to reformate all of it. After that was done we had a party in my flat and it was great. Only thing was that Tanya had decided that we should meet in the center at 9 a.m. next morning to make our resident permit. And so we did, and now I have a resident permit with a picture of me having a hangover. (awesome)

Ola and Marta's goodbuyparty was as expected. Good but too much vodka :D What can I say - "Polish people" :P I'm gonna miss those two girls. And now nobody will understand we when I call a girl 'skarbie'.

The party we had at my work was the lamest thing ever. The day before I spend most of my time making paper flowers. I do that a lot on my work so i'm getting pretty good at it. The reason why I did it was that there was huge lack of decorations on the walls. The manager didn't wanted it to be  possible to see the wall so see wanted flowers to cover the spots between the flowers we had already made. After too many flowers I was told to hit some nails in a concrete wall with a pingpong bat. Thats kind'a hard. Next day we had the party and everybody was excited. There was some kids dancing and pretending to be singing and the some speeches that would have been boring even if I understood it. After that there was some kind of disco with some 12 years old girls who wanted me to dance. That was a long day...

Samiras birthdayparty was very good. It was after it turned winter and I spend most of the time outdoor but except for that everything was great. It was at 'the squat' which is the new place to go! It's not the place itself that makes it great but the people fighting for their rights to keep it. The times i've been there there has been people making fire and playing guitar, singing and having a good time. It's quite easy to find - Just follow the hippieathmosphere. :D

This friday I started playing badminton at a new place. It's a big hall with badminton courts in the sides and a handball court in the middle. The conditions are better than the place where I used to play except for the fact that people are actually playing handball 30 cm away from the badminton court. Guess I just have to get use to it.

I have felt quite lazy for the last couple of weeks. I don't know what it is, there is just not as mush fun as there used to be. That makes me stay more home which makes me lazy. Lately I have spend too much time watching 'How I met your mother' and too little time hanging out with friends. I think I need to change some habbits. Btw - 'How I met your mother' is awesome. :P

Thats it for now. Hope i'm not too lazy to write something next week.
