We should all remember the 43 brave men that lost their life in the fire in Israel and also hope that those who lost their houses will be back on their feet soon. It is unacceptable how the government in Israel acted before, during and definitely after the big fire. No ministerial responsibility, everyone is throwing the blame on another desk. It could have been much worth with out the assistance from the rest of the world. Turkey, Greece, US, Egypt, Italy, Russia and many other countries put politics away and decided to help, I appreciate that. Now we must fix things we must make sure that in the future the forces will be ready to react on time. And if some must go and leave the office please do so.
I`m sorry but I had to start with they, I have a lot to say about it, also about the peace talks in the Middle East and the Palestinians demand from the EU to recognize them as independent country. Not that I against them having their own country, but they have to be ready for it and not make a one sided declaration. First it will be against former agreements between Israel and the Palestinian authority and second they just can`t handle it, YET. Once day I will write more about it.
FREEZING, yes it is freezing. How would I describe this to you? Well, think about the coldest experience you had so far, go it? Ok, no add to it a wind, but not a summer breeze gentle wind but A WIND. Here they call it “La Bora”, good. Now, top that with a little bit, I`m lying, A LOT of humidity and you get cold the cracks through your bones and slap you on the face every morning.
I need to climb a little hill to get to the bus every morning, not too far something around 250m walking, but when its cold and windy it is almost impossible and it doesn’t matter what you wear the wind finds a way to come through and to remind me ---“ LA BORA”
I have purchased a good North Face jacket, paid good amount of money for quality and brand name that I know that will last and that will make me wormer then other. However, I have noticed that one of the stiches is open, where they have the special glue to prevent water to come through the zipper. I went straight back to the store where I got it, luckily I had the receipt; very rarely I actually keep those. At the store, they say they must send it to North Face and that it will take about three weeks…. Now freaking way, 3 weeks? I would die here without it. Few days after I went there with Nicola my Italian friend in order to make it easier on the language skills both the sales person and mine, and their they told us four week, after dome flirtation with the young lady and Nicola saying things in Italian she told me that I will get a new one within ten days. It has been three days and I`m freezing here.
Hanuka is passed and Christmas is almost here, which mean that the long three weeks holiday is around the corner. My parent are arriving this Sunday and I am a little bit excited, though it will be weird, I can not remember the last time I have spent ten days with them. Then Shira is coming for ten days that will be a blast, we wanted to go to Serbia, rented a car and booked an hostel, but then I found out that we can not drive a rented car to Serbia, insurance policy and stuff so we will do other great things around here, maybe some snowboarding again. I went last week for one day and despite the fact in was foggy it was awesome (or Oseme which is 8 in Slovenian). I didn’t snowboarded in the past four years but it feels like I have been doing this every day.it is so much fun.
School? Who cares about it? No I’m kidding. School is busy very busy. Grades came in and I’m happy with them, except finance and accounting they are around b+. We got couple of exams before the holiday and a big paper to hand in right after for political analysis class. No complains here nothing that it is not manageable.
stay worm, have fun.
Marry Christmas and happy new year!
