Need I say more...

They are here. Yesterday I rollerbladed to the "stadion 10siecio lecie" a stadium that is currently used as a bazar - which normally takes 20 min. by public transport - I made it there in 18 ;). How did I get them - well, my mom is here! she came yesterday to Poland, and dropped off some chocolates and some rollerblades - not much time to talk but during the easter break I'm going to see her in Sandomierz.

I do have two stories to tell - one being yesterday. I had two labs and a 1/3rd of the term test (school 8-14). I also had to meet my mom, give her some containers for my grandma at 14, go to get some sheets signed at 14:30 and give them to an office at 15:00 (each trip being approx 25 min via public transport) then plan a lesson for my english tutoring at 16:45 - the trip to my lessons also being 25min.


On my way back from the test, I met my mom, with our uncle here Stan. He drove me to get the things signed - the parking was for employees only, but Stan's friend was the parking booth operator, so he let Stan in. I dropped off the sheets, and since we had some time, we went to a coffee shop. I had forgotten about the containers for grandma - but no worries, because grandma phoned me in the coffee shop to remind me. In the same coffee shop, I met my boss from the language school - whom I had emailed the day before - and we arranged a meeting time that was perfect for both of us. Needless to say - these are just a few of the coincidences that happed yesterday.


My second story is about - some time management. I was told (by an influencial party) that I should seize the stay in Europe and go on some trips to european cities. I took the advice, dropped two courses from my schedule (which were over and above the requirements for my exchange) quit polish dancing (8 hrs a week - too much) and replaced it with a bronze level social dance class (1.5 hrs - much better). I visited Gdansk - which has a huge old town compared to most cities in Poland. I also stopped by Sopot - which is famous for its clubs (although I didn't visit) and its sea-side (which I did).

Hey Mateusz

Sounds like you're having quite the adventure this year. Good stories. When are you coming back to Canada?
