Erasmus#15 Soup

Because life is also about minor achievements, about always finding someone in the kitchen to talk to about something that doesn't even matter; about the fact that whenever one comes back home there is always someone to ask how the day was; about everyone hating the same night guard, about always having the possiblity of going for a splif with my mates and end up the night playing PS2 and beinh humiliated because I don't have a clue about how to move my character; about doing ordinary things like shopping and cooking; about falling asleep in someone's room because we decided to watch a movie late at night, about knowing names and faces, about looking back and realize that actually this is already kind of homeish...

Erasmus14# Tribute

Tidal waves don’t beg forgiveness
'CRASHED' and on their way
Father he enjoyed collisions; others walked away
A snowflake falls in may.
And the doors are open now as the bells are ringing out
Cause the man of the hour is taking his final bow
Goodbye for now.
Nature has its own religion; gospel from the land
Father ruled by long division, young men they pretend
Old men comprehend.
And the 'SKY BREAKS' at dawn; shedding light upon this town
They’ll all come ‘round
Cause the man of the hour is taking his final bow
Goodbye for now.
And the road
The old man paved
The broken seams along the way
The rusted signs, left just for me
He was guiding me, love, his own way
Now the man of the hour is taking his final bow
As the curtain comes down
I feel that this is just goodbye for now.

"I hold the world but as the world, Graziano,

A stage where every man must play a part,

And mine is but a sad one."

The Merchant of Venice, (cene 1, act 1) William Shakespeare

on the occasion of Halloween, when I spent ages in a queue to buy a proper costume and in the end I didn't bought anything. After beerpong and some ponch I dressed up as a mummy... how sad my 'part' was.
