It was a fun weekend …

Saturday passed mostly in some pleasant physical exercises while lying down and the accompanying stuff, like almost no sleep and catching up with it Sunday afternoon (chervarium and desync even decided to check at some point if I’m alive :) ). In the evening we went to “Praga” to celebrate Chorbadzhiyski’s baby girl, so we drank, spoke all kinds of crap, made toasts, etc., until the moment in which half-dead for sleep we went to Divaka for a midnight paunch soup and then went home.

Of course, there were a lot of fun moments, for example Nakov, chervarium and desync sang some songs on the way to Divaka (I have no idea which, but it still puzzles me that no one threw a brick on their heads), a recipe for cooking eggs for chervarium (including a sexual intercourse with a chicken) and all kings of stuff on the agrarian-sexual topic … It’s relaly good that we all have strong guts, and the waitresses are used to us :)

I finished reading “Domesticating the revolution” by Gerald W. Creed (with the subtitle “from socialist reform to ambivalent transition in a Bulgarian village”), the book turned out to be really good and informative – it describes the mutual influence of the regime from 1944 to 1989 and the agrarian economy, and the result from the followed transition. It’s obvious that the author had tried (and succeeded) in understanding the processes and the history and managed to describe them in an understandable way (although some of the sentences are somewhat tangled). I recommend the book to everyone that’s interested in Bulgarian history.

I’m still a bit sick, but feel somewhat merry… I feel a bit bad about google, but I’m also really relieved that I won’t be going anywhere – the nostalgia had started to catch up with me before I’ve even left… There’s no place like home :)

And some news – Tuesday, at hall 210 in the Chemical faculty there will be a Climentian lecture “Frequent vulnerabilities in web applications”, it will be presented by Zhoro Chorbadzhiyski, there will be a demonstration and all the extras :)
