Welcome to Great Britain!

Well, I had the best day of my life… and now I had the worst. Getting to Aberystwyth was a total nightmare! I got here 4 days ago but now I have the time to sit down and pay some attention to this blog. So… 26th September 2009 – crying (again) at the airport in Bulgaria, the flight was like getting on a rollercoaster, and after that I was too busy running and dragging my damn suitcase. When we arrived at Gatwick airport we had one hour to catch our train. And we thought everything would be ok……. We spent 10 min or so walking through so many corridors I forgot where we were. Then of course I made a blunder. While they were stamping my passport I dropped something on the ground, kneeled down to pick it up and then my rucksack dragged me down…. and I fell on my butt. (Stop laughing damn it!) I broke my sunglasses, not that I need them here, it’s been cloudy ever since we arrived. So after the passport thingy we spent another 20 minutes waiting for our luggage, my suitcase handle was broken or course, and till we get to the train station, our train was gone. We asked if our tickets could work for a later travelling, I showed the ticked reference code and the card I bought them with online, the man checked in the computer…. and said this was not the card they were bought with and began to look at me as if I’m a violator or something. So we bought new tickets… and this is where the fun began. We had to catch a train to get to London bridge, from there we took the underground to get to Euston station, and from there we had to take the train to Birmingham. And the whole time we were running like hell and dragging rucksacks, laptops, suitcases weighing 30 kgs total up and down elevators and stairs… With just 2 hours of sleep the night before, I still wonder how we survived. When we took the Birmingham train we had an hour and a half to travel with it, so we managed to rest a little. From there we took the train to Aberystwyth, met other Bulgarians… and we got there… here, I mean. But it was horrible. I don’t know if I want to go back the same way for the Christmas vacation. Since then we’ve been going to seminars, welcome meetings, today we registered in the university, but I still haven’t got my timetables with my lectures so I’m still nervous. At least I managed to buy the new AFI CD – that’s all that matters. xD That’s it for now, wish me good luck in adapting to wherever I’ve fallen into.

A Farewell to Joe

Well, that’s it – my last night in Bulgaria. I knew it’s going to be tough, but this is just ridiculous – I haven’t stop crying for…. a week maybe, and today I saw my father cry for the second time in my life. It wasn’t funny even when he gave me ‘that’ speech. I’m not regretting my decision and I haven’t regretted it for one second… but it still sucks…. I’m not dying to get the hell away from my parents, but once I get on the plane, I think I’ll cool down – it will be all over. This week has been dragging so slowly, I just want it to end. So… that’s it from here. No scribbles, sorry, I couldn’t think of anything (actually, be happy, you don’t have to read another piece of crap xD – yaaay, a smiley face).

To all my friends who I hope will read this blog from time to time to see if I’m alive – I love you, I’ll miss you like hell, sorry for all the times when I hurt you…. I’ll see you soon :] Ah, Fuck It, I’m going on tour, see ya in 3 months!!!

A Calm Before the Storm

I forgot I have a blog, didn’t I? I’m not even that busy – just counting down the days left till I leave for university. 2 weeks left – yesterday were 2 months…time sure flies by. I’m getting more and more nervous by the minute. The good part is that I overcame the phase of wondering what the hell I’m doing and why I’m going there in the first place. But then I kicked my ass and got over it… at least I hope so. The studying part is not what freaks me out that much, it’s the whole “new place, new people, new whatever” thing. Never been a big fan of changes. But I know if I don’t do it now, I’ll regret for the rest of my life. Plus I won’t be losing my nerves all the time, I’ll have fun, have new friends, learn something useful, go to concerts….. buy CDs….. especially buy CDs. xD So I’ll have hard time for a few months and then I’m sure I’ll do something stupid like I always do. xD But I would have already got used to my new life… That sounded reaally weird.

I haven’t written anything in a very long time. As usual I have tons of ideas but no time to sit down alone with my thoughts to put them into another depressing scribble. Something always comes up, I have to get out of my house as fast as I can, or I’m just too tired/lazy to write something. I’m sure my muse will kick in as soon as I settle in university. There’s gonna be a lot of gloomy scribbles then, I’m sure. But for now I’ll try to enjoy what time I have left with my closest people here… and try to finally write something, damn it!
