The Day of Meetings And Partings

Today, when I was on the walk with Dasha, I've met a lot of people: my ex-classmates, a guy from a parallel class, Cherry Lady. It really cheered me up, because I'd dozed off a little bit before, and some thoughts had turned me down.
I've just packed my bag. There're actually few things, and half of my bag is empty. Perhaps, by my coming home it'll have been full.
All day long I've been nervous. I don't know why What a lie, of course I do! Tomorrow I'll have the longest flight, I'll have amazing time, and I'll have it all alone. It's not a fear, it's excitement, and I can't wait until tomorrow.
There's nothing more to talk about but my travel, so I offer you a set of songs about holly America and not so as you'd notice.










But the song of the day will be an inspiring song "I Lived" by one of my favourite bands "OneRepublic". The song's from their new album, and it's just awesome.



[Verse 1]
Hope when you take that jump
You don't fear the fall
Hope when the water rises
You build a wall

Hope when the crowd screams out
They're screaming your name
Hope if everybody runs
You choose to stay

Hope that you fall in love
And it hurts so bad
The only way you can know
Is give it all you have

And I hope that you don't suffer
But take the pain
Hope when the moment comes
You'll say...

[Chorus]
I, I did it all
I, I did it all
I owned every second
That this world could give
I saw so many places
The things that I did
Yeah, with every broken bone
I swear I lived

[Verse 2]
Hope that you spend your days
But they all add up
And when that sun goes down
Hope you raise your cup

I wish that I could witness
All your joy and all your pain
But until my moment comes
I'll say...

[Chorus]
I, I did it all
I, I did it all
I owned every second
That this world could give
I saw so many places
The things that I did
Yeah, with every broken bone
I swear I lived

[Bridge]
Whoa
Whoa
Whoa
Oh
Oh
Yeah, with every broken bone
I swear I lived
Yeah, with every broken bone
I swear I lived

[Chorus]
I, I did it all
I, I did it all
I owned every second
That this world could give
I saw so many places
The things that I did
Yeah, with every broken bone
I swear I lived

[Outro]
Whoa
Whoa
Whoa
Oh
Oh

So with this optimistic note I'm finishing my probably last June post and announcing a hiatus. Wish me luck and be brave.

The Project X

Today I might be in Khabarovsk already, but...
So, I went shopping, and now everything I want I have ("money, notoriety and rivieras"). I'm going to make a plan of presents for my friends. There may be not so many things, but I should remember what exactly, and I better write it down on the paper. Today listening to "Back To Life" by 3Oh!3, I've recalled that I wanted to buy their new album there, therefore I hope I'll do.
Dasha and I have watched "The Project X". The film was made by the same guys which had made "The Hangover". That's evident - an unbelievable party with a lot of alcohol, girls, boys, police, fire and no sense. In the end it became epic at all! "The Project " is a good example how (not) to make a big party. Actually, the movie was filming during 25 nights. TWENTY FIVE NIGHTS OF IMPETUOUS REVELRY


Right now I'm listening to Cherry Lady's disk "20/20 Experience" by Justin Timberlake. Oh, it's fantastic! Can't help dancing with my head and my feet, but everything else of my body is blocked between my bed and my laptop.
Congratulations to my city, here comes the weather I call hot hot hot. 
I hope I'll be allowed to the Internet in America to update my Twitter, VK network, Instagram and maybe even the blog. I'd sent notes, because usually right by the time I arrive back home from somewhere I've remembered nothing, and recollect everything during a year.
My mom was presented a bath set, and I can't see it in cold blood anymore. 


And here's your pictures for the night:





The song of the day is "Don't Hold The Wall" by cute JT.

Lucky Short Post

Today I've visited a hairdressing saloon, but I haven't done anything revolutionary. And tomorrow I'll get my airplane tickets and all informational papers for the travel. I should buy every little thing for living during the journey, like toothpaste and shampoo. I can easily forget of them; moreover, probably, there will be all this stuff in the hotels, but I must be sure I'm ready for every situation.
On Sunday my bosses and I will take photos for the Japanese advertisement. An interesting fact is that we're going to do it with my camera!
Do you like my new design? Unfortunately, a line from Del Rey's "Lucky Ones" doesn't appears good on this picture of the header, but I like anyway.
The weather's nice again, but not hot hot hot yet.
If I've just reminded of "Lucky Ones" by one of my favourite singers, so let it be the song of the day!


Let's get out of this town, baby we're on fire
Everyone around here seems to be going down, down
If you stick with me, I can take you higher, and higher
It feels like all of our friends are lost
Nobody's found, found, found

I got so scared, I thought no one could save me
You came along scooped me up like a baby

Every now and then, the stars align
Boy and girl meet by the great design
Could it be that you and me are the lucky ones

Everybody told me love was blind
Then I saw your face and you blew my mind
Finally, you and me are the lucky ones this time

Boy get into my car, got a bad desire
You know that we'll never leave if we don't get out, now, now
You're a careless con, and you're the crazy liar
But baby, nobody can compare to the way you get down, down, down

I tried so hard to act nice like a lady
You taught me that it was good to be crazy

Every now and then, the stars align
Boy and girl meet by the great design
Could it be that you and me are the lucky ones

Everybody told me love was blind
Then I saw your face and you blew my mind
Finally, you and me are the lucky ones this time

Feels like, feels like, you know, it feels like
Falling in love for the first time
Feels like, you know, it feels like
Falling in love

Every now and then, the stars align
Boy and girl meet by the great design
Could it be that you and me are the lucky ones

Everybody told me love was blind
Then I saw your face and you blew my mind
Finally, you and me are the lucky ones this time



Be brave and lucky

The Latest News

Today I had a walk with my friends Cherry Lady and Christina. It's our last walk all together and my last one with Christina, because she's going to become a real student and enter university in another city. I wish her a big good luck; I know she'll do everything alright.
So, due to bad weather we spent a lot of time in the cafe, but then we did have a short walk. I'm glad all we usually do we do it funny and so friendly. Of course, this way, we know each other for more than 10 years. 10 holly years!

See the name of Lenin on the top?
Then I got the latest news. My travel is delayed. A little bit. Instead of the 22th of June, I'll fly only on the 25th, Monday. Therefore I have 2 more days to yearn and prepare. I could visit my Korean friend's Birthday, but she's just now told me, she's gonna celebrate it later. Well well well, anyway I have some things to do before I leave the place. And in the end of it all I'll come back home on the 17th of July.
Lately I became a lover of noodles. Even though I know there's dinner at home, I can't help coming over in the shop and buy a pack of Korean or Japanese noodles. I can't say I'm a big fan of Asian food, but this time something make me want their noodles.
Being an owl, I almost don't sleep at nights. My friend Dasha has said I just become accustomed to American time. Every summer.
The song of the day? Let it be "Tequila Sunrise" by "The Eagles". Of course, you understand, the song's not about drinking. It's pretty sad, actually.


It's another tequila sunrise 
Starin' slowly 'cross the sky, said goodbye 
He was just a hired hand 
Workin' on the dreams he planned to try 
The days go by 

Ev'ry night when the sun goes down 
Just another lonely boy in town 
And she's out runnin' 'round 

She wasn't just another woman 
And I couldn't keep from comin' on 
It's been so long 
Oh, and it's a hollow feelin' when 
It comes down to dealin' friends 
It never ends 

Take another shot of courage 
Wonder why the right words never come 
You just get numb 
It's another tequila sunrise,this old world 
still looks the same, 
Another frame, mm...

Snow White in LA

The day X is coming closer and closer, and my 3 main days has come today. So today my mom and I did a little shopping, and we've bought next to nothing: 4 pairs of shoes (for 2 pairs for each of us), a trousers for mom, a charging for my camera's accumulator (finally!) and some things to protect my skin from American sun. I've decided not to get tanned, because as I said before, I'm not made for it. And I don't care if people are indignant at me something like "You've just come back from the holiday! Why aren't you tanned?", because last year the situation was exactly this way. But I could get sunbath under North sun of St. Petersburg! And even though I'm going to sunny California, I won't get brown or - Lord, forgive me - red. Moreover, my white skin will contrast marvellously with my black swimsuit.
Oh, the sooner the day of my flight, the more I wanna go. Can't help bothering about it! Unfortunately, we still don't have any information about our visas. I hope, the matter is alright, and tomorrow my mom will receive the latest news and my airplane tickets to Khabarovsk. So tomorrow and the day after tomorrow I'll need to revise all my things and choose what to take to the journey.
Last night I scrolled through the photos of last year USA travel of the same company I'll fly with. And there were 23 participants! Oh Gosh, it's a huge amount for such a trip. I'm so glad we'll have only 12 people in our gang including the organiser.
I've kept one cool picture for a long time, but I think it's high time to share it with you. And this is Nathaniel Ruess at "Rock Am Ring" festival, Nürburgring.






I use this picture like this... to the people knowing Nate.




Congratulations to our island, the rain has stopped today. But it's been cold to the core.
I want Lana Del Rey to be the singer of the song of the day. Remembering my yesterday's post about dollars, so let it be "Hundred Dollar Bill". MONEY MONEY MONEY


Also talking about money, I have a chance to get money from the region administration. I've already got some premiums from the mayor and municipality, and this year I can win it too. What a good reason to be a good pupil!


Be brave!

Raining Days

Since yesterday it's been raining, and rumour has it, it'll end only on Friday. And I don't give a shit, because it's going to be hot and sunny in LA till forever. Or till the end of the month, for sure.
Today mom has bought me my first $350, and it's sooo coooool! I feel myself American.
Also my mom and I have just watched a French 'comedy' "Paris-Manhattan". I call it quote-unquote comedy, because yeeah, it's good, but not so funny. And don't tell me it's lambent humour.



Then I've shown her "New Year's Eve" and cried again.
And the song of the day is simply marvellous today. I warn: it's just S.E.X.! This sex is a young British band "Monarchy" feat. adorable Dita Von Teese with their song "Disintegration". Thanks to my music friend to have shown me this wonderful band and this fabulous song; I've just fallen in "Disintegration" since the first time. So here the excitement lives.



And then, when there is just one woman left standing in the room
Then she will be yours

Disintegration

You and me
Hold our breath and count to three
I want so much
To give you my everything

Disintegration
Suffocation
My life is taken
Annihilation

Save my love for you
I'm saving my love for you
I save my love for you
I'm saving my love for you

There's a beating inside of me
Open up we can take it slowly
Let's dissolve our humanity
You found the beat of my heart, my heartbeat

Oh so free
Give in to you endlessly
Live for your touch
Never have I died so much

Disintegration
Suffocation
My life is taken
Annihilation

Save my love for you
I'm saving my love for you
I save my love for you
I'm saving my love for you

There's a beating inside of me
Open up we can take it slowly
Let's dissolve our humanity
You found the beat of my heart, my heartbeat

Save my love for you
I'm saving my love for you
I save my love for you
I'm saving my love for you
[x2]

Disintegration
Suffocation
My life is taken
Annihilation


Be brave to open your feelings

When You're Around Me

I'm the one who left you, you're not the one who left me
Marina And The Diamonds, "Radioactive"

I've spent all day at home, therefore I've watched some things.
Firstly, I watched Shakespeare's play "Much Ado About Nothing" starring adorable David Tennant and lovely Catherine Tate with Russian subs, of course. What a wonderful thing! "Digital Theatre" recorded it, so now everyone can watch British theatre performances, thanks to them. Well, "Much Ado About Nothing" is a comedy about the whims of life and love; David and Catherine are absolutely brilliant there! The play is hilarious. And Tom Bateman played Claudio was awesome. It's one  more confirmation that David Tennant and Catherine Tate are totally amazing actors. Love them



After the play I watched a movie "Monte Carlo" with Selena Gomez, Leighton Meester, new for me Katie Cassidy, Glee's Cory Monteith and Catherine Tate again! The story's about three girls having adventures in France. One thing I must admit being a girl is the guys are handsome. And I liked Leighton Meester there.



And yesternight I watched "Valentine's Day" by Garry Marshall starring many many many people. Garry Marshall also made "New Year's Eve" even after "Valentine's Day", so the structure is the same - some stories connected with each other. I want to mark out Ashton Kutcher, he's sweet again, and Bradley Cooper with... an interesting and unexpected character. Generally I really loved the movie and was crying as a little bitch.




Tomorrow the first rehearsal for the Japan trip will be. I hope I'll learn everything easily.
Moreover, the last week in my city in June starts. Let me prepare to the U.S.A.!
And the song of the day will be "Radioactive" by fabulous Marina And The Diamonds. When I heard it for the 1st time, I didn't like the song; but I listened to it one more time yesterday and fell in love.


Lying on a fake beach
You'll never get a tan
Baby I'm gonna leave you drowning until you reach for my hand

In the night your heart is full and by the morning empty
But baby I'm the one who left you, you're not the one who left me

[Chorus]
When you’re around me, I’m radioactive
My blood is burning, radioactive
I'm turning radioactive
My blood is radioactive
My heart is nuclear
Love is all that I feel
I'm turning radioactive
My blood is radioactive

Waiting for the night fall, for my heart to light up
Oh baby I want you to die for, for you to die for my love

In the night your heart is full and by the morning empty
But baby I'm the one who left you, you're not the one who left me

[Chorus]
When you’re around me, I’m radioactive
My blood is burning, radioactive
I'm turning radioactive
My blood is radioactive
My heart is nuclear
Love is all that I feel
Ready to be let down
Now I’m heading for a meltdown

[Bridge]
Tonight I feel like neon gold
I take one look at you and I grow cold
And I grow cold...
And I grow cold...

[Chorus]
When you’re around me, I’m radioactive
My blood is burning, radioactive
I'm turning radioactive
My blood is radioactive
My heart is nuclear
Love is all that I feel
Ready to be let down
Now I’m heading for a meltdown



Be brave
