30th January. Julefrokost

The Christmas lunch with coursemates. It  was fun. Julefrokost- christmas lunch. 

Home made dumplings with potatoes and mushrooms

Surprise pie :)

Wasn't expecting... At some moment my mom knocked at the door and said if you want some apple pie go take a piece :) it was really yummy... Ok! Now... back to study... 

29th January. No title.

Do you know those days when you can't point the main events and it's difficult to give the name of the day? When you deliberately have chosen laziness? You kind of feel bad and guilty but can't stop yourself.

It was today.

Of course, I had smiles. I was watching Midsomer Murders. Eating. Eating more. Even more and more. Ok, I should be honest, I was elephanting :D but it was tasty elephanting ;)

A talk with you, little exercises etc.

But then I told myself "oh, common! You don't have any photo for smile! Go and get it!"

So I went out for a walk. I had to go to the shop but I little bit made a circle and went until lake.

And here Mr.Swan is hidding :)

When I returned home, this was in my post box :)))))))))

28th January. Double feeling and cheesecake

The smile of my day. The cause of my double feeling was the number 1 smile of my day. You know what is this cause, I know what is this cause... I'll post a print screen from our talk :D and I promised myself, I'll focus on good things instead of "worrying ones". :) It will be amazing, I know. We will resolve the situation :)))))

And another big smile... Oh, cheesecake, coffee, but main thing... Girls! I could chat and laugh. Ok, ok... I still consider I talked too much but I'm really trying :D

This was mine. Liquorice  cheesecake :) liquorice was just those small black spots on topping... Rest one was normal cheesecake & wildberry cheesecake :)

This was one of the girl's

Oreo cookies

Delicious :)

27th January. Holidays

You know that I'm on holdays. (Yes, you know, because I was acting as princess yesterday :D) I'm doing some things but mostly just allowing myself not to stress too much.

Do you know what made me smile in the morning? My bed. My cozy bed. I was washing laundry and you already know the system... So, when at 9 am, I understood that I can actually return to the bed because there is nothing to really hurry for... It made me smile a lot :D I wrapped myself in blankets and watched 1 episode of TV serie ;)

And coffee with an anthropology student in the afternoon/ evening. We were sitting on the stage :) and talks made me think about something.

And finally I also finished my food. First try for vegetable moussaka. Should improve some things (too much liquid) but otherwise... Tasty :D

26th January. Rain

Hey, hey... Don't know what is Copenhagen - Mr. or Ms, but I can tell you a thing - this Ms./Mr. has some strong mood swings :D

Yesterday it was snow, cold, sun... Today it was warmer, grey and was/is raining a lot.

I had a very wet ride back to home. Uhhh... It was tough, but somehow, someway it made me smile. Don't know why, because usually it would freak me out, but... Today, today I was in a good mood and found it rather funny :D

Didn't want to ruin my camera, so you'll see some consequences.

The jacket was almost black from water... Otherwise it should be nicely dark blue :D and jeans... If streets would be rivers with gold, my jeans would be full of gold... But right now I'm just struggling with sand and mud :D

25th. A Cold ride/ a cold walk

Sorry. Was too lazy yesterday.

So my yesterday's smile... All the day somehow was pleasant. But here are some smiles of mine ;)

A ride by bike while snow is around. It was cold, but so sunny. I just couldn't stop smiling and look around with wide open eyes. You know, I like to try new things :D

I met some of my acquaintance and we kept explored together National Museum. I didn't continue with Bronze Age. As he has been there already, we checked temporary exhibitions (Navajo chief blankets and eskimo fur and lifestyle) and followed with other national ones (Asian, Australian, African etc.) You already received lots of photos with different music instruments and sexy strings from fur :D Here are some other. Sorry, can't post them all. Probably some day I'll show or publish on another blog :D

Little penguins.

My new pals. Aren't they lovely ;)

Mr. Scary Rabbit.

Then we went for a really long walk to take warm chocolate, eat greek pies and argue about our different world views :D sorry forgot to take photos. But then a nice cold walk back to the city centre and a ride back to home... And hot lemon water... And hot blacurrant juice with balsam and Midsomer Murders :D

Fresh air and exercise

Nothing better than fresh air and exercise after an all day spent in a desk studying :)

24th January. Dilemma

Dilemma. I can't decide what to post. Should I post morning yoga and warm lemon water after... And watching how birds fly? It was really pleasant. And I love that harmonious inner feeling.

Or should I post visit to the National Museum?I went alone, but it was nice. Managed to get until Bronze Age. Tomorrow I'll continue, I guess.

Here are Mr. Aurochs the Shy. Or "I'll allow you to see my ankle, darling" :D

"Ok, ok... If you insist."

And here comes Mr. Elk with sexy backside ;)

And closing today's visit... Beauty. The passageway to history, as I would say :)

23rd January. Sideway.

My day was really calm and little bit boring. But no matter, there were plenty of little smiles. I read first posts on this blog... That was sweet. So sweet memories. :)

I cleaned my room finally. Exams made to forget it... But today I made myself smile again. It's more fun in a clean room :D

I watched old British TV series. Funny, funny... I ate, I chatted with you, I got my coffee and sweet...

And I took sideway going to a shop. When I saw it, I remembered first time when I saw you playing. It was also dark and the field was in lights.

And this was simply beautiful...

Time by time take sideways, so you would have new perspectives :D :D

Blackcurrants...

Opened the second box of blackcurrants... Mmmmmm... It's so good and reminds me so much about you and Latvia experiences in general :))

22nd January. Experiments.

Here we could think why it is like that... Why do I have problems to throw away food? Is it because of my grandmother who always demanded to empty my dish fully otherwise I'll stay half-married? Is it because of my father, who got angry if food was wasted? Is it because of knowing how difficult sometimes it comes? Is it... Is it... Is it???

No matter what, but I can't. If I have spent money on it; it is still useful, just I don't want it anymore... I can't. I'll try to find a way what to do with it.

Welcome veggies. Veggies with coke (coca-cola). I had coke's leftovers. I tried to drink it yesterday, but I just don't want it anymore... So I decided to experiment today.

And honestly... Tasty :D with pasta it was just amazing :D

21 st January. Little surprises.

Little surprises in my pockets or bags. You know, when you forget that you have put something somewhere...

I like these little surprises especially after my "goings out". Because I usually forget them and then at the next day it brings me a huge smile, nice memories and so on...

Bars not only serves nice drinks, but also provides you with lovely postcards :)

Just love to receive them (postcards in my bag). If noone gives me them, then at least I provide myself with funny postcards :D

Mmmn... Nhami :D

Study time... No, wait... I'll just bake a cake quickly then I'll study :))

Tuesday, 20th January. It's all over.

It's all over.

This is over.

Holidays.

The first semester wasn't easy and made me understand that there is plenty of place for me where to grow. Ms/Mr Ego didn't like it, but what to do- he/she seems start to accept it. Life is fluid and emotional and mental states are fluid. Ok, physical ones too. Ohhh, cammon, be simple - everything is fluid :D and just write your smile.

The project exam. 4h oral exam.

Black holes in my knowledge. Stress becaue it's my first experience with such a study project and type of exam.

I manage to pass it. Not good, but ok... Experience was tough, but I think I learned lots of things.

So it's all over.

This semester is over.

Her some afterexam-drinking-talking-laughing-theprofessorwassobadcomplainig-6h meeting with guys from project.
