Good morning! Labrīt! Bon dia!
Woaw.. so many days without writing and
so many things to talk about! I wish the days had 48 hours, I want to
do too many things!
Today I went out of my flat, coming to
work, I turned right on the first corner and I saw a wonderful image:
the sun was strongly shining between some black clouds, lighting up
just some parts of the streets, but very intensively, and a rainbow
was shyly standing in the background. It was very very nice! But, of
course, I had this stupid thought of taking a picture instead of
enjoying it so the clouds decided to move and the rainbow
disappeared. Anyway, it was a beautiful start of the day.
So, let's review very fast what has
happened lately!
Some weeks ago my family came to visit
me. My father, mother and brother spent 6 days in Latvia and we
visited Rīga and Kuldīga. I was very happy to see them and spend
some days together, although at that time I had only been away 2 and
a half months, it's always comforting to see your family. And they
were so lucky! They came the best week they could have come, the
autumn was at its peak, all the trees were full of colors: yellow,
red, orange... Everything looked amazing! But then they left and to
be honest I was sad and the landscape didn't help anymore because the
leafs started to fall and everything became brown. By the way, during
the days that the leafs were falling I loved to walk on the streets
because they made such a nice sound!
I was really looking forward to the
week that was coming. On that Friday I had my first performance with
Focus, the dancing group I joint. It was in Saldus, in an award
ceremony, and I had to dance 5 of the 7 dances we were doing.
Actually it was pretty difficult to remember them all! Anyway, I
really love dancing and I was really happy to dance there! But after
the performance, I realized that I miss my dancing group from
Catalunya so much... “Step By Step” is my second family.
And this was not the only good thing of
the week: on Saturday I left with Anna to Lithuania for 5 days. It
was a great great trip! First we went to Kaunas with some friends we
had met in Riga two weeks earlier. They are doing an Erasmus there so
they are from different nationalities and it was perfect for
practicing languages: I found myself speaking in French to two
sisters, they answering me in Spanish, turning my head and Speaking
in English and Latvian words coming to my mind instead of the French
ones. Hilarious!
Then, on Sunday afternoon we left to
Vilnius. We stayed in the flat of a friend of a friend and they were
so nice! The three days we spent in Vilnius were fantastic: we
visited the old town, the castle, the forest, Užupis Republika, we
went to very good cafes, restaurants, concerts... it was a fantastic
trip.
So, when I came back to Kuldīga I got
ill. Of course! I didn't have plans for the following weekend and my
body decided it was the perfect time to get ill. And if it wasn't
enough, I also burnt myself. Yes, making pumpkin soup I destroyed a
little bit of my arm. Luckily it didn't hurt until yesterday. Well, I
hope it will get better and my cold will disappear soon.
