Ursynalia Fest 2013

Last weekend me and Damon went to the
Ursynalia Warsaw Student Festival.
The event started about 3p.m., but we 
were sitting under once of the big umbrellas
(the weather was so weird, at most
of the time was sunny and hot, 
but sometimes it was raining)
and waited for Parkway Drive's concert. 

There were a lot of stores with T-shirts, 
accessories, food and beer, but most of them
were very expensive. Not much to say about
the food options - hot-dogs, ice-creams and
fried food. I think, you know what is the most
important at students' parties - good fun and cheap tickets, 
that's why this year people were disappointed.

The moment when we arrived onto the main stage
was incredible, it was a sea of black T-shirts -
I knew I was at the right place. Only metalheads
will wear all black in 27+ degree celsius temperatures
when mud is everywhere around the scene.
When Winston came to the stage and 
looked into our side, my heart was beating so
fast! This band is so amazing live that it's
better than perfect. I'm still processing it.

Happy Mother's Day

Today is a day devoted solely to moms everywhere.
Mother's Day is celebrated on the second Sunday
of May in many countries, but in Poland it's always
on 26th of May. However moms deserve to be
honored every day for what they do for us.
I'm lucky to have an incredibly amazing one in my life.
Happy Mother's Day to all moms :)






















My mother is a big oatmeal fan, so I decided
to do for her no-bake oatmeal cookies.
These are delicious, wonderful, quick cookies.

  • 3 cups quick cooking oats
  • 1/2 cup flaked coconut
  • 1/2 cup nuts
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • about 100g butter
  • a bar of chocolate

Cook sugar, milk, chocolate and butter. 
Bring to a boil and boil for about 1 minute.
Pour over all other ingredients and stir 
until well mixed. Drop by teaspoonsfuls
into waxed paper to cool.

With no sorrow, with no remorse

The city hides secrets of the liars in the streets..
Deep down inside I feel to scream,
I don't want to stand and watch it all...

KontenerArt

Well.. Last thursday I was seeing
with my best friend, Claudia.
I miss her so much!
We went to a LOS GRANDES
RUDEBOYS' concert. They played
in the very nice place
called KontenerArt at the riverside.



KontenerArt itself: 
sand, fresh air, really good music
and nice design..








Yesterday I got to have an MRI
(Magnetic Resonance Imaging)
done on my knee. Sounds nice, huh?
But it's really boring.. I had to lay in
a big machine and I had to endure
sounds of erhh.. loud buzzing (?)
for about 40min.

It's a strange feeling to find 
your old purse with some money
in it..

Cream of leek and potato soup - this has got to be one of
the most delicious soups I've ever made as well as 
the easiest. My younger sister is not really a soup lover..
but really enjoyed this one.














Ingredients:

  •  4 medium sized leeks, sliced and throughly washed
  •  1 onion, skinned and sliced
  •  3 medium sized potatoes, peeled and sliced
  •  about 25g butter
  •  1 litre vegetable stock, salt and pepper
  •  45ml cream


Method:

  •  lightly fry the vegetables in the butter for about 4 minutes, 
until soft but not coloured. Add the stock, cover and simmer 
     for about 45 minutes until the vegetables are cooked. 
  •  Pure it in an electric blender and return it to the pan
  •  Re-heat and stir in the cream just before serving.


                       ***




My younger sister told me
that it's different manga version of me,
but I don't think so.
It's from my notebook for biology,
I drew this during lesson.
I usually don't finish my arts
'cause I'm lazy..

Erm.. yeah, that's all.

Damon's birthday

Today is my boyfriend's birthday. 
"Do something that he would never
expect me to do" - I thought. I hope that
saturday's surprise party for him
will stay in his mind forever.

I'm so sad.. 
Tim Lambesis (from As I Lay Dying, my 
favourite band) was arrested on Tues, May 7
after attempting to hire a hitman to murder his wife..
This is just insane.. Damn.. I'm in shock.
Is this the end of my fav band? :(

The Long Weekend

The first weekend of May in Poland
 is the begining of barbeque season 
and it's traditionally known as the 
"long weekend". It starts on Wednesday
May 1st and finishes on Sunday May 5th.
It's a long weekend, 'cause May 1st is
Labor Day in Poland and May 3rd is 
Constitution Day so both are the
national holidays. Long weekend 
means you can take 3 free days and
then you have all together 9!

I hope the weather will be nice..
