Kasiulka, you asked about the book by Dean Koontz that I’m reading at the moment. Hm… Maybe thanks to some quotations you will figure it out yourself. Giving you the title would be just too simple to me ;P

There you go:

‘I was young. I am twenty-one and much older than when I was twenty.’

‘I am sustained by the certainty that life has meaning. As does death.’

‘The joys of life can be found anywhere. Far places only offer exotic ways to suffer’.

‘This world, which has potential to be Eden, is instead the hell before Hell. In our arrogance, we have made it so’.

Okay, I know this might not have told you a lot so I’ll add that the main character sees dead people.


Oh, and one important thing. Today I had my first ride on a motor-cycle. It was rather… funny but hard(I’m not a kind of girl which has as much strength as boys do), nevertheless, the instructor told me I did good and I was clever. I hope he didn’t lie to make me feel better! ;D
…I didn’t even fall on the ground… but the next time won’t be that simple! ;P


And, traditionally...

"Apres Moi"

I must go on standing
You can't break that which isn't yours
I, oh, must go on standing
I'm not my own, it's not my choice

[Chorus:]
Be afraid of the lame
They'll inherit your legs
Be afraid of the old
They'll inherit your souls
Be afraid of the cold
They'll inherit your blood
Apres moi, le deluge
After me comes the flood

I must go on standing
You can't break that which isn't yours
I, oh, must go on standing
I'm not my own, it's not my choice

[Chorus x2]

[Russian*:]
Февраль. Достать чернил и плакать!
Писать о феврале навзрыд,
Пока грохочущая слякоть
Весною чёрною горит.
[Repeat]

[Chorus]

I must go on standing
You can't break that which isn't yours
I, oh, must go on standing
I'm not my own, it's not my choice
[Repeat]

[* Words from a poem by Boris Pasternak. English translation:
February. Get ink, shed tears.
Write of it, sob your heart out, sing,
While torrential slush that roars
Burns in the blackness of the spring.]

I couldn't sleep through whole night. From 1 to 4 in the morning shouldn't be a sleepless time! I already imagine myself at 7 wnet I get up or even dpon't because I'm awake all this time... a real nightmare.

At the moment I'm reading something by Dean Kontz, in English. Not that I understand about 30 per cent of text, oh no. Anyway, good book I gues although I've read only twenty-something sides. I'm marking words which I don't know and there are hundreds of them... sometimes it's six and sometimes sixteen words on a page. Will I ever learn them?

My friend acts a little weird to me. Do boys have 'these days' as well? Hm... It looks as if they did. Hope it'll pass. Oh, and my other friend wanted to take me somewhere and show me motorcycles... but after last three days I was such tired that I didn't manage to go anywhere except a shop(which is right in front of my house, luckily). Anyway, I'm hungin ob, somehow.

Oh, studying J is still at the same level. It means that I stopped studying and I have no idea when I will start again. Not too good... but hey, I have holidays! Almost...

And a great song that I discovered today(and so I did the band).


'Road Rage'


If all you've got to do today is find peace of mind
Come round you can take a piece of mine
And if all you've got to do today is hesitate,
Come here, you can leave it late with me.
You could be taking it easy on yourself
You should be making it easy on yourself
Cause you and I know,
It's all over the front page, you give me road rage,
Racing through the best days,
It's up to you boy you're driving me crazy,
Thinking you may be losing your mind.
If all you've got to prove today is your innocence,
Calm down, you're as guilty as can be,
If all you've got to lose alludes to yesterday,
Yesterday's through, now do anything you please.
You could be taking it easy on yourself
You should be making it easy on yourself
Cause you and I know,
It's all over the front page, you give me road rage,
Racing through the best days,
It's up to you boy you're driving me crazy,
Thinking you may be losing your mind.

You're losing your mind.
You, you've been racing through the best days
You, you've been racing through the best days.
Space age, road rage, fast lane,
And if all you've got to do today is find peace of mind
Come here, you can take a piece of mine.
You could be taking it easy on yourself
You should be making it easy on yourself
Cause you and I know,
It's all over the front page, you give me road rage,
Racing through the best days,
It's up to you boy you're driving me crazy,
Thinking you may be losing your mind.
But you and I know,
We all live in the space age, coming down with road rage,
Racing through the best days
It's up to you boy you're driving me crazy,
Thinking you may be losing your mind.
It's not over, it's not over, it's not over,
It's not over, it's not over, it's
not over, you and I know
We all live in the space age, you give me road rage,
Racing to the best days
It's up to you boy you're driving me crazy,
Thinking you may be losing your mind.
Losing your mind
