more than just a Hat with a plan

Since finals has still not ended this is how my life looks like: learn, write a project, learn, make a presentation, learn, die of the heat, learn, realize your notes are so full of shit, deers, do this:


Then as follow: learn, HannibalHannibalHannibal. Learn and maybe finally go to sleep, although you wish u spent your night at the balcony. 

Of course summer is cool - thanks Thor it's not raining or getting very cold at night so I can even catch some sun on my skin in the morning. Though, the same amount of nice weather makes our neighbors party animals, so every night one may either hear a very unclear bass tune or a very clear and noisy people talk. I don't want to say anything or sth, but it's very rude, especially for the uni students. Besides, it makes me hungry only in the evening, when it's a little less hot so I tend to make very late dinners and so go to sleep later.

Though, it makes me more creative and oh my, yesterday I made such a good salad with grapes and pasta with garlic I almost cried myself how an awesome cook I am ;p.

Also, this blog makes me hungry.

So far I am doing well with the finals, although the exams are kinda stressful, as always. Though, I'm proud of myself getting B on my EU Law exam - those were the hardest classes of the semester but the easiest exam ever (though, passing the classes was the biggest pain in the ass of the last few months). The weirdest thing is now passing the sociological methods classes - it's only 3 ECTS but it already makes me mad: we had to pass quizzes every week (I needed to write one again because the teacher thought I haven't written it), read plenty of hell'a difficult texts, write a FUCKING HARD exam containing 20 open questions AND make a project of a sociological study... which we still have to present today although it's already the exams time (it should have been done before so we get a pass for classes).

And here I am, I passed the sociology exam somehow. Also, it's time to choose MB's paper's supervisors, which again makes me think are those studies right for me.


I chose one name already only basing on what are this mister's academical interests. I have no idea who he is, is he a good supervisor, and, on the top of that, I have no idea whether the topic I am thinking about women organizations is fine.

Oh gosh, I need to finish the exams soon, I start over thinking and an amount of books to read is piling up on my desktop. I have Zadie Smith, King, Steinbeck and Harris waiting for me! Don't worry my precious ones I will be done soon. *hugs the PC and hisses heavily*

Am I getting crazy?

she's so high

The exams time is on which means that basically I am struggling a hard time fighting for every little pinch of concentration everyday. It was pain in the ass especially last week when the weather got shitty and I ended up staring at my books and loosing with the attention span, more or less like that:




At last, the weather got sunny & hot again, bringing some positive energy and together with magical power of   the incredible coffee I was able to kick some exams' asses. Though, there is still a week of those before me and I have to finish some projects, but I want to catch some fresh air now and take a deep breath.


Meanwhile, I went to the shop and bought myself an ice cream as a reward for the exam passed. I passed European culture thing after a  glamorous presentation about post-feminism, but I guess I would pass it anyway - I just like to show things and give talks about them LOL.~ Though, EU law exam  was simply the best. Firstly, I was sure I won't even pass the usual classes, because I had so very little points from quizzes, but it turned out I passed it so I was learning hard for the exam... which took around 20 minutes and contained 12 abc questions :P! And I've even scored 4 after all - it's better than my score from the classes O_O.

Weird, weird world.

Actually, I am rly suprised that my scores has been quite nice so far. 

Also, I can see the fate haven't slapped me in the face for a while, 'cause I've even got a job lately! Yes, at last, I became a sensei, fufu. After a whole year of sending CVs everywhere I went for two interviews in one of Cracovian Lg Schools and I got a job as an EFL Teacher! 



I still need to handle them some papers, I guess I will do it on Monday :P - and I hope I will start soon. I also hope that maybe I could find some summer job or intern here. Well, June has not ended yet, so I still send documents~. What else can I do, right?

Owh, yes, besides watching Hannibal (too bad it's finale is being aired next week :P I will miss it)

me & the devil

I remember that every time the summer exams time came I found myself being completely unable to adjust my clothing, shoes, concentration span and the amount of the water drank to the actual state of weather - I have to admit these days I am struggling probably the same problem, although, I cannot fit the weather because it is SO DAMN RAINY.


My shoes and hair are so wet every freaking time I need to leave the flat and go out it is slowly driving me mad. Everything began during the long weekend last week - I hoped for some nice sunny days and the only truly sunny day came when I was already setting off. Of course I love spending time at my parent's house, even though for the first time in my life I had a real trouble eating a dinner there, but I blame watching too much Hannibal.

This show is very weird - on one hand it is very creepy, because of the killers, psychopaths, and all of this,   but on the other it rather makes you feel sad because of the murderers, more than being angry at them. If you wonder how the heck is this possible you just need to  watch a few episodes. I couldn't believe this show's fandom can be so full of rainbows and gay unicorns at the same time watching a thriller series, but now I can proudly say it has the full right to claim all those rainbows... and the amount of inner jokes I make with myself probably got much higher than usual.

Also, Pućka made me watching "Arrow" series. It's really well made and engrossing. I like that it shows the development of the super-hero and the viewer is not just put in the position at which everything is already ready. Besides, the OST is brilliant and it fits the story so well. Although, it's not the main soundtrack that got stuck in my head - though I guess I can let go off this song because there is this fucking rain outside and it feels so British :P LOL.



Also, on the other shows I've watched recently I saw the Grey's Anatomy final episode of series 9 and I have to say... there is a huge gap between the previous finals and this one and it's sad because this final was probably the worst of them all. Nothing new, no mind breaking cliff hangers, old problems repeated again and again.

 The only thing I liked was that moment when Christina need to do a surgery on the heart but the lights went off and she had to listen to the heart beat to know what is going wrong with it. I love her chara but this thing was just awesome. Also, later when she was telling this to other characters I felt so envious of her. I mean, she was in that situation and at this very point she knew that this is the thing she wants to do in her life. I do envy her. I wish I had such a situation in my life - whether it was during hosting a show or a class. Too much concentration on this shitty little issue probably won't help me obtaining this, but I rly would love to experience such moment.

srsly I adore her

Sesja vintage i bezsenność

Gratuluje swojej psychice mechanizmów obronnych w formie braku snu - nie dziwię się, że w czasie poprzedniej sesji letniej nie spałam w ogóle, bo przy zasypianiu o 4:00 nad ranem, po uprzednim rzucaniu się z boku na bok przez pięć godzin minimum, przynajmniej daję radę zasnąć na chwilę, o tej porze latem jest już jasno. Nadeszła sesja, czyli tak zwany splot niekorzystnych wydarzeń.

No dobra, nowe kuchenne odkrycie, czyli nabe shabu, było akurat w miarę korzystne ;p
 Ledwo wróciłam na zajęcia, a los od razu mi trzasnął, tym razem zepsutym telefonem. Od tygodnia siedzi w naprawie, a ja dostałam telefon zastępczy na pocieszenie, dzięki czemu czuję się bardzo vintage. Dochodzę do wniosku, że nie najgorzej radziłam sobie bez telefonu, ale bez smartfona to już jak bez ręki - muszę być już poważnie uzależniona. Nie to, żebym miała coś przeciwko przepuszczaniu drobnych na bilety, zamiast je sobie wygodnie kupować przez odpowiednią aplikację, ale przyzwyczaiłam się do osobistego asystenta w formie mojego LG i chciałabym go już mieć z powrotem.

Wyjeżdżając z domu załapałam się na przetłumaczenie aplikacji dla W8 do czytania ebooków i w końcu w tym tygodniu aktualizowali polską wersję :D. Jestem mega dumna, chociaż przez tym programem jest jeszcze naprawdę dużo poprawek...

Ponieważ, tak jak wspominałam, jest sesja, naturalnie odczuwam ostatnio wielki pociąg do pracy twórczej, więc mam nadzieję, że uda mi się w najbliższym czasie usiąść do klawiatury i stworzyć jakieś opowiadanie. Mam na to wielką, wielką ochotę. Plus, i tak nie śpię, więc przynajmniej wykorzystam ten czas jakoś bardziej produktywnie ;p.
