Privet, what can I say apart from that i run away from Togliatti and my family and have lived in London for the last 7 years. many things happened, many adventures and i had a truly exciting time! it was a great feeling when i arrived here (being 17), in this unknown huge city where i could start a new life without parents or russian mentality and limits and be whoever i wanted to be. my life in london is about having friends from all different nationalities: german, french, american, irish, greek, south african (london is the most cosmopolitan city in the world), but my most favorite country is Italy.I have started to feel a bit sick of london since i have been living here for such a long time. This city feels already like home and I have found here what i tried to escape in russia - familiarity and everyday reality and predictability. I already know London and its people so well and wherever i go i cannot be unknown anymore or discover new things. there is history to this city for me and this means limits but i am dreaming to be free. My dream is to travel. Hopefully, in couple of years i will be able to travel without visas and i will disappear into Tokyo or New York or Florence or Chile, again - unknown to anyone yet and free. this dream gives hope and meaning to my life. I am happy. you?
ALina

complacent in being me....
wow both of you have such amazing views on the uk --- read my latest entry which will show a totally different contrast to both of yours!!! i feel suddenly slightly agast at this..... maybe im wrong and you guys are right... maybe you can be happy wherever you are..... but to each her/his own... i should stop looking at other people and keep my head down in my own thoughts of what will make me happy .... always reminising... thats what i do...July 25 2005, 15:25:20 UTC 6 years ago

Re: Нет худа без добра.
hello Friend, i am sorry i haven't had time to write you some words.I have never been working so hard - 7 days a week for 3 companies
I get up very early and then go to work and come home at 9 and then read a book (unbearable lightness of being) and go to sleep, all days including Saturdays and on Sunday I work from home. Remember, frient when you said your cannot picture me employed - well this feels like the start of the never-ending career - if you know what i mean :)
So dear Darren, i am dreaming of my trip to ireland to c u that I am planning end of August - begging of September. Please let me know if it is ok, sorry I cannot do it earlier - I can't really take time off work that i have just started. so what else agent? how is the funk of the mind doing?
even though i always prefered it to be a mindfuck...

Re: Нет худа без добра.
Darren is not VERY old *cough cough, falls over* haha!I'm writing and existential analysis of Islam and Islamic extremism could ya get it published hehe! (just kiddin' about the publising not the writing)
Anyway hope all is good in London town I found out today I have one and a half days annual leave left having used alot of it in April and then a weeks worth in July for no reason so thats a bummer.....good news is I get a week in October and two at xmas regardless though so thats cool. I have made some new music for you to hear at some point and have been offered one or two projects oooo la la......one is to write music to go with an Edgar Allen Poe story and a trapeze act; the other is some chap wants a remix.....question is can I bothered, easy answer is no I bloody can't I've gotten more fun from charcoal sticks than music in recent memory but still I do it.....I should probably take the work shouldn't I? Ah well my utter melancholy continues........was listening to Mr Fennesz recently still love that please send me "endless summer" you bum its out of print.....one of the synths he's fond of using, the name escapes me, is being put into software form and sold for £500 so if I can get my hands on it I will surely send you a copy. Might even make something special myself! You know I read some Dostoevsky the other day for the first time in a long time just some short stories but its made me dream of going to St Petersberg again was thinking I should just do it this xmas do you think you'd consider it? I don't even know if we'd ahve time to get visa or whatever but its just a wondering thought that I've had since about ten years ago its on my to do list.
