everybody's changing

... and I don't know why (yeah, if only we were in one of the keane's songs). But we're in reality and need to accept that everything is changing. My classmates are getting married, people are graduating, looking for job, having business meetings. And also the cities, there are new tram stops, new street names. Oh well, I guess it all comes with September and the new beginning of school year.

This picture is on the wall where I used to walk just in June and there were tanks all over it. Look now, it's changed! Let's welcome new change as a challenge! Who's in with me?

Vsetko sa meni, ...a ja neviem preco (tak by sme to mohli nejako zakoncit, keby sme boli v pesnicke od Keane). Ale nakolko my sme v realite, musime jednoducho zmeny akceptovat. Moji spoluziaci sa zenia a vydavaju, ini statnicuju a promuju a hladaju si pracu, chodia na pracovne schodzky a nakupuju kostymceky do prace. A tak isto ako ludia, menia sa aj mesta, ulice maju nove mena, zastavky elektricky sa volaju inak... Co uz, asi je to len nejaky ten septembrovy syndrom noveho skolskeho roku.

super cute

I've spent the last weekend in the countryside and in this little house, look what I've found! Probably the cutest glasses ever! I'm sure my friend Csilla would fully appreciate them. Almost stole them, but then my parents were like: do we need 2 MORE GLASSES in our house? And of course that-moralty-concious-feeling! haha Are you also blown off? Or is it again just me? Minuly vikend sme stravili na vidieku, na Strednom Slovensku v objati tajchov a zelene. A co som tam na chalupe len nenasla? Asi najchutnejsie pohare na svete! Som si ista, ze Csilla by ich ocenila!

scrapbooking

Do you remember when I was talking about memories and how you can remember them better with Pandora on your wrist? Well, the other way which is a little bit cheaper and I even maybe prefer it, is to make a scrapbook of photos, pictures, old tickets and songs you used to like. I simply call it a book of life. So I found myself finishing one just recently. I was adding some more pictures and memories from my Berlin time and how could I skip all those brunches and chai lattes? Oh well, this one is with my friend Fede, who always happily joined me for a morning crime at Barcomi's! Grazie Fedeee! How do you preserve memories? Do you scrapbook? Or just simply keep them alive in your head? 

Pamatate si ako som nedavno hovorila o Pandore a o tom ako si s priveskami na ruke lepsie pripomeniete tie krasne chvile s ktorymi sa spajaju? Takze dalsi sposob, ktory je rozhodne lacnejsi a pravdepodobne ho mam aj radsej, je robenie roznych kolazi z fotiek, obrazkov, starych listkov na koncerty a do kina, textov piesni, ktore ste zvykli pocuvat... Jednoducho to volam kniha zivota.

and i dedicate this to ...

Today I've decided to post probably one of my favorite posts ever published here. It's about books and dedications. Have you ever thought who would you dedicate a book to? I know, it's not the most common topic to think about when you're falling asleep, but for me it became a big question some time ago. If you look at books you have at home, what will you find? I found zillion dedications to family, mother, father, wife or children. And friends - don't forget about them. I am just not sure about it all. If you decide to dedicate a book to someone, it must be someone really special who inspires you or who helped you, or I don't know. Or what about to dedicate it to someone who is no longer among us? Something like in his/her honor? Isn't it better to dedicate to someone who can still appreciate it? Help me answer these questions, so once when I'll have to answer who to dedicate, I'll have the right answer :) But for now, I dedicate this post to my friend Katka, who cooked such a lovely dinner for me last night.
Dnes som sa rozhodla pridat asi moj najoblubenejsi prispevok, ktory som zatial publikovala. Je o knihach a venovaniach v nich. Rozmyslali ste niekedy nad tym, ze komu by ste venovali knihu, keby sa Vam naskytla takato moznost? Viem, nie je to zrovna najklasickejsia tema na rozjimanie ked neviete v noci v posteli zaspat, ale aj tak sa s touto otazkou zaoberam uz nejaky cas.

like a princess

Remember that episode of Friends, when Rachel and Phoebe went running? And how embarrassed Rachel felt when Phoeby was running so childishly around? And also how Phoebe said that without running as fast as a kid to the monkey bars, it has simply no meaning to her? So something similar happened to Csilla and I, when we visited a castle, where you could make your own paper crown! How cool, right? Do I have to tell you, that Csilla was more than hesitant? Haha, I am sure I don't. But then, once I asked if this is only for children or also other people can participate, she completely got into it. That much, that she even took her paper crown back home with her (mine is  also resting on a shelf in my room). What I was trying to write here today is, that it doesn't matter what you do, if it makes you happy! And what if all the German tourists were staring at us?! Absolutely nothing! So just go there and have a time of your life! PS: Special thanks to Csilla for modeling for me - you're the best!  Pamatate si tu cast z Priatelov, ked Rachel a Phoebe behali v parku? A ako trapne sa Rachel citila, ked okolo nej Phoebe pobehovala ako male decko? A tak isto aj na to, ako jej Phoebe povedala, ze bez toho aby behala tak rychlo, ako dieta co trieli na preliezky, to nema pre nu jednoducho zmysel?

4 more months

I don't know how many of you has registered today, that 4 more months and Christmas is here!!! So merry pre-x-mass everybody!!! I am sending you here the picture of x-mas cactus, which I took in all-year-round x-mas shop in Sedona. How cool is it, that in Arizona they decorate cactuses, right? Do you have a x-mas tree or x-mas cactus?? haha

love for life

As I've already told you I've spent my b-day in Budapest with my dearest friends. I don't know what it is about the city, which makes me coming back again and again. There must be some special hidden magnet 'cos every time when I'm on a train back home, I am thinking and overthinking the idea of moving in permanently at least for a year.
But now when Csilla and Nora are there this dream might actually come true very easily and very soon!  Let's wait and see.
I am presenting you now some pictures we took on our strolls around the town and also from party in Szimpla, which became our favorite place after visiting it over and over again in Berlin.
Have you ever been to Budapest? Do we share the passion, haha?

Ako som Vam uz povedala, svoje narodeniny som stravila v Budapesti so svojimi drahymi kamaratmi. Neviem cim to je, ale toto mesto ma stale taha spat. Zakazkym ked som vo vlaku spat domov, tak rozmyslam nad tym, ci by som nemala prist na trvalo a vyskusat byvat tu aspon na rok.
Teraz ked Csilla a Nora budu v meste, tak sa tato "fantasmagoria" mozno aj coskoro stane skutocnostou. Ktovie? Pockame si a uvidime :)

happy birthday moi!

In case you haven't realized, it's my b-day today and it means a big celebration. I couldn't spend it better than with my Hungarian golden edition of friends in Budapest celebrating till very early morning until I had to catch a train back home. The picture is from Szimpla, where I left the memory of this amazing event! Anyway, once again, happy birthday to meee!
Ak ste si nahodou nevsimli, tak dnes mam narodeniny, co samozrejme znamena velku oslavu. Nemohla som ju stravit v lepsej spolocnosti, ako s mojou zlatou ediciou madarskych kamaratov v Budapesti, kde sme oslavovali az kym som rano nemusela ist na vlak. 

a very morning experience

My dear friend Csilla is visiting me in Slovakia this weekend. And as it was Saturday my parents suggested to join them at the local market. I can only tell you how hesitant I was, as I knew that I wouldn't find there racklet as in Berlin, neither marzipan croissant as in Prague. But still, at 8am we were up and ready to go (more or less). We have seen loads of vegetables and fruits, some flowers and basically everything what belongs to the proper market place. It's still funny for me that after living somewhere almost my whole life I've been always missing this experience. Oh well, as I say: everything is once for the first time :) Do you like markets? Moja dobra kamaratka Csilla je u mna tento vikend na navsteve. A kedze je sobota, je dobrym zvykom mojich rodicov vybrat sa na trh. Tentokrat v ramci zazitkov, navrhli aby sme sli s nimi. Dufam, ze je Vam vsetkym jasne ako sa mi "velmi" chcelo v sobotu rano vstavat, nakolko som vedela, ze tam nenajdeme ani racklet ako v Berline, ani marcipanovy croissant ako v Prahe.

all those resolutions and revolutions

All of us have those new years resolutions and then following revolutions in life. But how long can you keep up with that new years spirit? This year I didn't even make one, 'cos I am still lacking in fulfilling the resolutions from last years... oh well.  On the top of the list is to read more Economist than Vogue or any other magazine where are just photos and pictures of nice things. And you wanna know how am I doing? Oh well again! But this time I've almost made it, as I collected nice amount of smart papers and now I am summing up the courage to open them up! How are you doing with your resolutions? Tell me your story! 
Vsetci to isto pozname, vsetky tie novorocne predsavzatia a nasledne zivotne revolucie, ktore maju trvanie tak maximalne do konca januara.  Tento rok som si ani ziadne predsavzatie nedala, lebo este stale musim splnit dalsich x z minulych rokov...ach jaj.
