Summer hurrraaaaaaaaaaaa...

As we all noticed summer is very close. The past few days were not the best May days with all that rain that we got and coldness, but now we can feel the nice and worm summer weather getting closer and closer. I have to say that I can't wait. I love summer and I always really enjoy summer. I love to swim and be in a water so that is one of the reason why I love summer so much. Summer of course also reminds me of vocation - and no school. Not that I do not winter or fall. I love skiing and Christmas time which is all about winter time.I believe so that everybody love summer and have good memories with summer and that fantstic hot weather.

Funny movie - liar, liar.

Last Sunday I watched that super funny movie with a friend of mine called " liar, liar." What I funny movie. It was a fantastic comedy. The whole idea is that a 5 years old boy living with his mother because his parents divorced wish that his father didn't tell a lie for just one day. His wish comes true and his father who is a lawyer and needs to pretty much not to tell the truth all the time , ends up by telling the true and not be able to lie about anything. So from that moment some of the situations are very funny, especially when he is about to tell a lie and he just can't do it, and all we can hear is that funny sound coming out from his mouth. That was classic. I was laughing so hard that my cheeks hurt. He also got to realize how much he loves his son , and from now on he tries to be a better father and be always honest with his son. The little boy is s happy that his wish came true and on his next birthday he wishes that his parents get together again and that also comes true. The movie eds with the happy ending and everybody seems to be very happy.

Happy mother's day.

On Saturday the whole United States celebrated The Mother's Day. I send it with my uncle , my aunt and my cousin who is a mother already. We BBQ-ed and had a great time. Of course, there was something missing in my heart - my own mother. She could not be here and celebrate with me because she is in Poland. Even though, she is so far away , and we always celebrate Mother's day May 26th in Poland I called her and we spoke for hours and hours. My mom is like my best friend forever. I can always tell her everything that bothers me or about the things and the way they make me feel. It is so good to have a person like that , who you can always trust and count on. I have to say that it wasn't always like that. Now I understand when I am older and I realized already that my mom always wants just the best for me and everything she does and did she did to protect me and keep me safe. I even did not know how many things we have in common which is obvious because she is my mother and we have the same blood. I respect and love my mother form my whole heart and I would never want something happened to her. I always want her to be happy and safe and I will do everything to make sure she is ok.

Bruises the book I read.

I had been reading Bruisesd by Anke de Vries for the past three or four weeks. That book just sucked me in right away. As I mentioned before it's about one girls who is tortured and psychically abused by her mother. Some of the fragments are heartbreaking and very strong. I was getting very emotional reading it. I guess that is what makes that book pretty interesting and real.I was really wondering and very curious how is the end of the book going to look like , and where is the main character Judith going to end up. I hoped that her mother will get better and the whole drama will be over. I was not right and the end was a little different. Her mother of course , did not change at all and she kept beating up Judith. Everybody around her tried to help her and noticed that there is something going on in Judith family.Her mother decided to move to the different town and Judith had to change her school also. She was not happy in a new town and she decided to come back to the old town and ask her friend and the teachers for help. She escaped from home and returned to the old place all by herself. That is how the book is ending up. I would really want to know what is going to be next, but that is only a mysterious question.

Painful brake up.

Breaking up with the person that someone used to be for a long time is really painful. The couples keep breaking up , fighting and they work it up again and get together again. That is what is happening most of the time. I myself just went trough a not nice at all break up with my boyfriend.It was not easy even though I had a reason to do it and I was very sure about it. I cried, had a hard time and difficult days from time to time. Today I am doing great and I don't even think about it anymore. I am so glad that I got over it . Unfortunately, not everybody is strong enough to do it and get over with it. My best friend is a great example for it. Her boyfriend broke up with her, which also was very mysterious and not clear why did he do it. She got very sick. She cried and did not eat I believe for days and days after that. I visited her and I tried to talk to her to cherish her a little , but nothing seemed to work.I was very worry about her. She even quiet her job witch was totally shocking for me.I felt helpless and her friends as well. We talked and new that we have to do something to get our happy and party friend back, and make her forget about her ex- boyfriend.So we came up with the idea to take her out and do everything she wants to make her feel better.Our plan came true and we all went out- all 5 of us. We had so much fun and my girlfriend was so happy. She realized how important are good friends and that they never leave you and always be there when you need them the most. Today she is fine and totally forgot about her ex- boyfriend.

THE FINALS.....

As we know we are were close to the end of the spring semester. What a craziness !!! So many things to do , and I feel like the first day of the semester was yesterday. Time goes so fast. I have tree finals this week and it's just too much for me. I can't wait until Friday , when I am going to be done with everything.I also can't wait for the Summer vocation and relax a little. The spring time and spring semester aren't my favourite. I mean it is so cool that spring is coming and everything looks just so awesome, but the whole nice weather and changes make me very lazy. I can't think about studying and I can't really focus on anything. That is why my grades from the spring semester aren't so great, because I do not have enough motivation to keep them up. I am sure that there is more students like me. I just can't help it.All I think about and want is summer. OOOOOOOOOOhh I can't wait. One more week Hurraaaaaaaaaaa

The Beardsley ZOO in Bridgeport.

Last month I made a trip to the Beardsley ZOO with tree boys that I take care of. The Zoo is located in Bridgeport. I have never been there before, but I have heard a lot about it. It was so much fun for all including me. We saw a lot of tropical animals and birds. A mother lion just gave a bird to the baby lion and the employee had a contest who can come up with the best name for the new born baby lion. Me and my boys were very interested to sign up on a list and put the name for a baby lion , but lines were horrible. It would take forever to get to the list.Sow we just decided to enjoy the day at the zoo and watch the animals.Some of them were very scary for me, for example, wolfs and the alligators. I am also so afraid of the snakes, and there was a lot of them.Good thing they were behind the glass and they couldn't get out of there.My boys loved the place and so did I. It was fun to see all the wild animals. Although, the zoo was not as big as I expected , it was very worthwhile to visit. I know that I have to come back there again , maybe during the summer. If you haven't seen it yet, you should visited soon.

Krakow - the oldest city in Poland.

I would like to introduce you one of the oldest cities in Poland which is Krakow. Krakow counts about 750 years if not more than that. It is also one of my favourite cities. I have visited Krakow in about five times so far. For centuries Krakow was a capital of Poland ,but not anymore. There are so many old and antics churches, castles , museums and many, many more objects to visit.Every year there are thousands and thousands of tourists from all over the world coming to visit that incredible and worthwhile place to see. Krakow also has a great and very old tradition. some of the traditions , like for example the tradition of the bell ringers are kept for 600 hundred years. That tradition is to swing one of the biggest bells which is called Zygmunts Bell , every hour for six hundred years for the entire world to hear. It is pretty amazing isn't it?The bell is hudge so the team of the bell ringers counts about 12 people. The legend also says that if you touch that bell and make the wish your wish will come true. If anybody ever will be in Poland and in the city Krakow I encourage you to visit the Zygmunts Tower and touch the Zygmunts Bell.

Homework with my friend.

I always do my homework on Saturdays. Sometimes I have so much homework because I have been taking three classes this semester. I always leave the most difficult homework for Saturday. That is what makes me hate the Saturdays. It reminds me of my homework and school. I have been doing that for four months in a row and I feel like I can not take it no longer. I really wanted to change it. I was thinking what can make my Saturday look better and help me get my homework done as well. i could not come up with anything , but last week one of my friends called me and suggested coming over and doing homework with her together since she had so much homework to do also. I thought "What a great idea!" So I went over to her house and first we made some wonderful lunch and then we sat in a living room to get our assignments done. That was a terrific Saturday. I just loved it. She also had a great time. We decided to do it every Saturday. It was not as painful like it used to be every Saturday.

An immigrant dream....

All of us ( I mean the class students) are from different countries from all over the world. Coming to the United States we scarified a lot and also faced up a lot. Some of us left all families and friends back in our native countries. Not everyone has the same chances to go back and visit them also.Sometimes we do not see our families for months and even years like for example me. I haven't seen my family and best friends from Poland for three years and a half. Sometimes I feel like I can't take it anymore especially when I know how much my mother and my siblings miss me. It is really heartbreaking. What makes me feel good and go back with my thoughts back in Poland are my dreams. At least 3 to 4 times a week I dream about Poland and my whole family and friends back there. In my dreams I can see everything like it was yesterday and everybody. I see the places, my room, my house , and I remember every detail there. That is magical and it always make me feel good and not to forget about the place where I am from. I believe that you guys have the same dreams, and it is good to have them. They keep that harmony in our hearts.

Fishing can be fun....

In about a month and a half ago I went to fish with a friend of mine. He is a big fishing guy and also so great at it. I was never really interested in fishing, and it even seemed to be a little boring sport for me.I always thought that there is much more fun stuff to do and more fun. So he encourage me to go to fish with him one Saturday. I still do not know how did he do it, but he did it. He got me to go fishing with him. So here we are on the boat in the open Ocean with a friends of his and one couple. The beginning was very slow. We could not catch anything, and I was about to give up and just go home. Suddenly I felt something was pulling my fishing rod. It was so strong that I needed help to roll it up. It was a quiet big action.I was pretty sure that I will loose that fish , and also so exited because it was my first fish I have ever caught. After a few minutes of that action I got my fish out of the water. It was a very nice bonito fish. I was so proud of myself and I guess I became a big fun of fishing. There is nothing more exiting than catching a fish 10 pounds big. It was a impressive experience that I will never forget. I can not wait for another fishing trip.

Shopping....

I have not gone shopping for a pretty very long time. There is always something to do on a weekends and I have no time at all during the week. So on Sunday I decided to go for a big spring shopping searching for some new shoes and dress. I called my friend and she of course is always up for shopping. We went together to the Stamford Mall. I was a 100% sure that I might spent a lot of money that day. I just really felt like spending.I was ready for big spend. We were walking the mall and I just could not find anything I liked. I mean really nothing. I was so mad at myself because there is always something that i like or need to get, even if it's a little accessories. We walked for an about four hours and nothing. Of course , my friend spend a lot of money, and she also got everything she wanted. I did not get anything. We left the Mall and i was so upset and hungry.I decided to go out for a good dinner instead of shopping and that is how i ended up at the sushi restaurant- which is my favourite. After a good sushi I always get my good mood back and that is what happened. well at least i ate good this Sunday.

When I grow up....

Everybody had their own dreams when we were little about what do I want to do when I grow up. I was a big dreamer about it. Now I am telling you right now my secret dreams so please do not laugh. I always wanted to be a famous singer or a dancer. I loved to see the video clips with all those pretty girls dancing and singing around. I really wanted to be like them.I even went to take some dance classes and I used to sing in a choir.I gave up too fast I know that. It was a little too much for the 8 years old girl and i thought I can't take it anymore. My mother encouraged me to continue that and she explained me that it takes a lot to achieve something and i should be patient. She also used to dance in a band and she even finished the musical high school. She used to dance and play violin, and my grandmother as well. sometimes I still dream about it , but now is weigh too late too do that.It is good to dream and have dreams. I just was not strong enough to keep my dreams up , but I encourage everybody to do it.

Bruises - very interesting book.
In about three weeks ago out teacher gave us an assignment to go down to the library and choose the book that we are going to read to the end of that semester. I picked up three of them , and all three of them were interesting enough. There was one book that just totally caught my attention and i decided to continue that book. The name of the book is Bruises by Anke de Vries.The book is about 8 years old girl living with her mother and two years old brother. The mother is obsessed with her son Dennis and she would do anything for him , and also she treats her daughter Judith very poorly. She bits her horribly for nothing. Judith gets even tics from that. she wets her bed every night and she can not control that anymore. The teachers at school and also the neighbors starting to notice something, and her best friend Michael as well. I am very curious what is going to happen next. I have not finished the book yet. I am just hoping that there will be some happy end for her.

A beautiful day.

Today is Saturday the April 25. I believe that this is the first that sunny and warm day in this year. It is 79 F outside and everything just look and smell wonderful. I was going to do some studying today , but the weather distracts me so much. All i want to do is just seat outside and enjoy the fresh air, flowers and green leaves around.I forced myself to post that writing, but I know that is all I did today. I just can not help it. My grades are always own when the spring is here and when you can actually feel summer. I will try hard to focus on , but I can't promise anything.

Seven Pounds.


That is the name of the movie where Will Smith plays one of the roles. I have to say that the movie really touched my heart. The guy who killed seven people at the car crash including his fiance accidentally, now is trying to help the others to keep them alive. He meets some people which need some organs like eyes, heart, liver, and tries to get to know them and theirs lives. By accident he falls in love with the girl that need a new heart. She only has a couple of weeks to live without the heart surgery.The main character (Will Smith) since the accident feels so guilty and wants to make it up for the people he killed. He kills himself saving the organs for the ones that need them the most. The whole weight of the organs weights seven pounds. Very deep movie with the slow beginning. It's worth to see it. You gotta see it.

The vocation of me dream.

If I had a opportunity to go anywhere for the vocation of my life , I think I would go to Bahamas. For me vocation means hot weather, water, sand, sun, and a fresh scent of the ocean. The water cristal clear, wonderful view and the flowers and plants just amazing. There is nothing more relaxing for me than that.I love the palm trees and those you can find in Bahamas. I have never been there, but I believe that one day I will be able to see that place. I have heard about the SPA places there and that is a big attraction for me as well. Spending a day at the SPA always makes me feel like a new born. I encourage everybody to try it, and I guarantee you will love it.

Much to your Chagrin.

"People who do not have embarrassing stories are untrustworthy. Or at the very least, they aren't telling the truth".

Much to your chagrin is a name of book written by Suzanne Guillette. I haven't read that book yet, but I got that great opportunity to meet the author on Saturday night in the City Suzanne Guillette.On Saturday she was celebrating her published in an enormous and so beautiful apartment located on Brodway.The party was huge and i guess i had never seen that many famous and rich people from Manhattan at once.Thanks to my brother who is a personal stylist for Suzanne and that is how we got invited.Her book is laugh -out-loud ride through some really embarrassing stories,what supposed to make the reader feel better about your own embarrassing stories. Suzanne said that she interviewed a few people and asked them about their most embarrassing stories, and that's how she put them together in her book.I believe that the book is great and Suzanne seemed like a very nice and interesting person. I am getting ready to read that book, and I also got one with the dedication from her.That was so much fun meting a real writer and having a chance to talk to that person.

Watchmen.

Watchmen is a title of a new movie that has been playing in a movie theaters for last couple of weeks. I saw it last week with a friend of mine. I was not really sure what are we going to watch and we decided to watch that movie when we got to the movie theater. The movie was really good and interesting. I had never watch that kind of movie before. A good action movie with some science fiction elements which I am not a big fan of. The beginning very slow , but after a half an hour the whole action began. Very good effects and costumes. Of course , I did not expect the movie to be that long , but it was worth it. I encourage everybody to see it , even if you do not like science fiction movies. Some of you might change the minds.

The monster trucks.

Last Sunday I got invited to watch the show in Bridgeport CT. It was the monster trucks and dirt bikes show. I have to say that I was really impressed. At first I did not even know what does monster truck mean. I knew about the monsters and I knew what truck is, but these two words combined together did not really make any sense for me. I totally understood when I got to that show. I got a very good ticket and place to seat.I went there with my boss and three boys that I take care of. As soon as we sat down my boss gave me the ear plugs to put then in my ears.I thought that it is funny and I won't need them. At 2 pm the show began , and two enormous trucks started driving around the field.The noise was horrible. The noise of their engine almost got me deaf.Then I understood the whole ear plugs idea. Everybody had them.
I also got the name of the show "monster trucks" because the trucks were just huge and they really looked like a monsters with the silly paintings all over them. After a half an hour I got to see the dirt bikes show. I loved this one. The bike riders were flying in the air on their bikes which was really awesome to watch. I really enjoyed the show and hopefully I will get a chance to see it next year.

One of my favorite flower- Lilly of the Valley.

Lilly of the valley is my favourite flower.They look very simple because they have just white tiny bell shaped flowers and green leaves.It looks very delicate , but their leaves are pretty hard. What made me so obsessed with that flowers is its smell. That flower smell just amazing.It has that fresh scent of green. The first time I met that flowers was at my first communion in Poland. I got those flowers from my God Mather as a gift, and I just fell in love.I remember that it was spring, and that is the early season for Lilly of the Valley. This flower reminds me of spring and everything around that is born. It symbolises the spring and new born by it's smell and fresh look.I encourage everybody ho has never smelled and seen a Lilly of the valley to check this flower because it's just magical. I believe that you will love it as much as I do.

How Madonna became my idol.

You probably did not know that I am a big fan of very controversial music pop star from UK Madonna. Madonna has been my idol I would even say and a very interesting person for me.Everything she does accept singing and acting is for me amazing.She is a great mother of three children, a very successful singer and also a person who is always open to help the other people. She supports a lot of actions and programs that help the poor children in Africa and all over the world. She is always on the top . no matter where she is , and what is she doing.

How did I become her fan? You would never believe , but everything because of my mother. My mother always was a fan of madonna. I remember when my mother used to sing her songs and dance every time they played madonna on the radio. I was a little girl and I had no idea who she really is.When I became older I found some of my mom's discs with madonnas music and I started to listen to them. I felt in madonnas voice and the way she sings. I became obsessed with her. I wanted to know about her as much as, I can , so I studied so many books about her life and career.For me she always is and will be a very interesting and powerful woman.I love madonna and every time she get out a new cd I think I am the first one to buy it.That is how I became a big fun of Madonna. I guess it runs in a family.

My weekend.

My last weekend was pretty good. It usualy starts on friday evening, because that's when I finish my job. Then I get two days off which is Saturday and Sunday.There is always something to do on a weekend .I always do my homework on a weekend and then I try to have some fun with my friends or with my family.If I do not go out with my friends and do something else I very often visit my uncle and his whole family.The last weekend i spent having fun with my friends and visiting my family.I met my bestf friend on Saturday and then we decided to go out to dance . We went out and we had so much fun.I also met there more my friends and we all sticked together.We had been dancing all night. On SandayI was not planning to do anything special. I was going to relax after a long and tough week while my uncle called me and invited me for a dinner.That was a great thing because I did not feel like cooking a dinner.we had a great dinner and we were laughing and joking. I went there and I really enjoyed spending time with my uncle and my cousines.

The best and the worse Valentine's day ever.

On a valentines day my boyfriend came up with the great idea to go iceskateing. I was so exited about it because I have not gone iceskating for years. I also tought that it's very original and diffrent than traditional dinner and chocolate. I believe that my boyfriend was more exited than me since it was his first time ever. He has never done it before. So there we are Stamford Twin Rinks with so many children practicing their iceskateing and their parents cheering them. The place was enormous and freezing cold. The ice so shiny and white. We got our shoes and jumped right away on ice. Since I used to iceskate when I was a little girls I just needed a couple of minutes to get use to it again. Unfortunetly, my boyfriend was a totaly disaster.
He had no idea at all how to do it. He could not even stand still on ice.Of course, I did not want him to get hurt so I held his hand and I tried to teach him some basics.It did not worke out. We were landing on the ice every few seconds for three hours. At the end he started getting it , but it wasn't satisfied for me. Later that afternoon I was going out with my brother for dinner.I didn't realize I might be that sore after that unusual valentines day. My arms and legs were killing me.After dinner we went out to dance a little bit and I was beging my brother to take me home because I couldn't even move my arms. That is how I spent my best and worse Valentines day ever.
