On day left. My mission has come to an end.

The End

two days left.

i can feel the force surrounding me.

hello!
just quickly, i don't have much time:
I've been to the natural history and the Victoria n Albert museums two days ago. natural history museum: packed with noisy kids, i wasnt in the mood for that. VnA: coool. the variety of the collection resembles the one in the british museum, but is obviously smaller. even though, in 2 hours i only managed to see 10 percent of the complete exhibition. what i saw: photographs, iron works, musical instruments. and there's a lot more!!! i can only recommend it. also, both the natural history m, and the VnA museum are hosted in beautiful buildings, worth seeing them!

yesterday i went to highgate -there's an old cemetery- but i just missed the last entrance. so today i went back and it turned out to be a good decision: it's "magical", indeed. i'll upload da pics soon!
but let's go back to yesterday: after not being able to enter the cemetery, i started walking around, there's this waterlow park with a cafe which has a stunning view (i had a cappucchino there today. in fact, two. and a walnut cake :) ) then still walkin without any aim, i wound up in hampsted heath. i was chatting with a guy around 60 -coz there was a stupid driver, who didn't manage to turn back the truck without destroying someone's fence, so the police came n i asked this guy what was going on. so we were chatting, i had a look behind me, and noticed a pond. one of the many in hampstead heath. i like wandering around. cool, i'nit? :)

i have three days and four nights in london.
no comment

may the force be with me...

hi all,
yesterday we moved out (in fact, only me, since Gosia visited her friend in Birmingham). well, binnie court is good, but if you asked me, which place i would choose to live in, i would fancy the private flat, in brockley, near hilly fields. with just two of us... however, our flat in binnie court is as if only two of us were living there, you can never see anyone. business interns...
anyway, as a consequence, we now don't have net, at the moment i'm sitting in the library, using the uni-facilities... so, probably i won't be able to make a note here every day (not as if i did so far). next sunday i'm off to my big journey, so again, i can't promise that i'll be able to upload pics, or leave messages. (i'll try my best)
yesterday i went to see the Chelsea Physic Garden. Chelsea is one of my favourite places in London, and i was happy to see some interesting flowers and plants.

on the other side of the river, the Battersea Park and the Battersea Power Plant are lying, providing nice views. on my way to the Battersea Park Station, all of the sudden the sky became really cloudy, it got dark in a minute. it was stunning to watch the dark clouds comin, bringing the shower. "Obscured by clouds". i got soaked twice... but i was happy.

today i will visit the natural history museum. still so many things to see.
besos

best Lithuanian beer i ever had (also the only one). BEER-LOVERS: U MUST TRY THIS: ŠVYTURYS EKSTRA

hahh, what a story.
as i already wrote it, Gosia's boss went crazy a bit, completely upsetting Gosia n me. basically, he was behaving rude towards Gosia, instead of telling her his problem. then on saturday he cut her hours all of the sudden, and on the next monday he told her a lot of stupid things. anyway, i got pissed off, and on the next day, i went there, told him that i'm pissed off with him, and gave his money back. well, he nearly exploded. to be fair, i have to tell that he was very stressed because of the works in his house, but any how, he kicked me out of his house. the next day he said to gosia to be friends again, and today, in the company of a beer, he acknowledged that his behaviour was not "appropriate" n i got my money back. i hope this is the end of the story.
i forgot sth: today he gave gosia 60 pounds, for us to go to a restaurant somewhere. i hope he won't mention it, when they'll have some problems in the future... maybe he is just a good guy, mortal, with mistakes, like us

ps.: the food was excellent, we had a good time

Yo, my little broth (ocsem :) ), check this out:

I guess the one on the left didn't turn you on much, but how 'bout the other one? Quite interesting. You can have a look - if I let u :)

This picture was taken five minutes away from the place where we are living at the moment.

hi
things had gone a bit crazy recently, but eventually everything seems to be sorted out. Gosia's boss realized that he was stupid, making some mistakes and they made peace with each other. Though I had a chat with with him, and now he only has a problem with me, apparently with me offending him. I don't mind it at all, I was right.
anyway, now I only have to be bothered with my journey, and to enjoy my last few days in London. it's sad in a way... However, I'm having a good time in here, with my Poziomka.

just to remind u all, u can find all my pictures so far uploaded on this website:

note, that the pics in the outer folder hide subfolders! click on the pics, to see the remainder.

on sunday we rode our bikes, we finally ended up in Hampstead Heath, in a huge, beautiful park, which is the wildest one in London (relatively untouched nature, considering its location)
see the pics here:

We got quite tired by the end of the day.

Some more pics: Nora celebrated her 22nd birthday in July, she and Nick, a greek guy, organised a barbeque party. lots of food, drinks, music, chating and fun. the party lasted till late in the night.

lately, we've been playing chess with Gosia, she is getting better and better. yesterday she beat me, for the first time. (ok, with some help)

all right then, that's it for now,
bye 2 u all

heeey
i've just received some old pics from Karla, Gosia's friend from hastings. cool ones, have a look:

after the titanic scene the owner of the "ship cemetery" came and "kindly" asked us to leave. private property is really meant to be private in England. anyway, we had another affair in Kent when we had a rest on a nice slope with stunning view that turned out to be private, but its another story... :) (F****RS)

I almost forgot that we went to Ealing where an annual jazz festival takes place. it was nice, though we weren't tuned on the "tunes" they were playing. not bad, but not that good either. i got some pics though:

we'll probably remember the food we had there (rather than the music), moroccan foooood, yummie, n crepes with ham n cheese. lovely.

i'm pissed off with my boss, actually with Gosia's boss. i'll work for him only one more day, so i don't really care about what is going on with him, but this morning he just texted Gosia that she'll work half as much as she was supposed to from Monday on. WANKER!!
