archives 04/09/2002 well. arrived back on monday night, but haven't time to write yet... sorry :] it was a hard work (i don't like to work really, so for me it was even a stranger experience ;)) whole day working, whole evening drinking... great team - not only our group, but some international volunteers as well - thank you for helping us! it was nice to meet you all... now back in brno planning this and that and preparing slowly for school (unfortunatly it's over the corner). i've recieved (finally!) some postcards - thank you all! i've also seen the taizé photos (would like to put at least some of them online soon) that made hanka & vláďa, really nice nice nice :) (i look like a complete idiot on some of them, but it's at least funny :) (comment?) 09/09/2002 spend an evening in front of the tv screen - and it wasn't wasted time! czech tv - it's second channel - having an evening about racism: starting with the documentary by leo regan called 100% white - what happened to skinheads when they are 30 years old? freaky. following later with a documentary about john hron - a young swedish boy (his father is czech), who was killed by a group of nazis. reason? not really. they simply like to torture and kill. thought about going to bed, but my father told me to watch another documentary - this time on a polish satellite station tvn. magazine called 'superwizjer' was about (some of the) ecological movements - and their financial sources... the reporter with a hidden cammera was trying to give them money so they won't protest against building transmitter stations. he succeeded. they took the money :| f**k it :( (comment?) 16/09/2002 some brand new plans for tha future! wow!! get some dope energy of life today - and it seemed at first that it's gonna be another day lost in the gray depth of melancholy (melanchol: a strange animal, that could bite you deeply). on tuesday i went to uplík - a literature evening - again saw some friends, read three poems (i haven't put them online yet - and i'm not sure whether i do it at all). met the friends with which i was in liběchov on wednesday - nice nice (btw. a first time i tried the gambling machines... catchy, i must admit). rap allstars on the way home - the nighttram as a perfect stage :] i also spoke with luka on icq after a long time. his thoughts are deep and i'm happy i can call him my elder brother. he proposed me to try trillian, an interesting program: icq, irc, aol, msn-messenger in one; for free, skinable and the instalation file is only 2.5 mb. another friend i rank very very high - zden from blava - will visit brno in about a month... and not to forget: i recieved a letter from egli, lithuanian girl i met in taizé :) more from .lt: arnas (a guy i met in palanga during the baltics trip) helped me with the prepared baltics expedition page - many many links about all the interesting places we visited :) i keep on translating all the time - but my english is poor and it takes time. sorry for the delays :| but meanwhile check the updated bibliotheca: 7 authors added, links added a/o corrected! (i'm going to a kinda conspiratorial meeting today. wish me luck.) (and yeah - no comments? you don't have anything to say? is it that boring?) (comment?) 18/09/2002 it was an interesting evening on monday... some ideas popped up: that's what counts. today i met kasia. after long long three months. i wouldn't believe i could survive such a long time not seeing her. well, i did. it was nice to be together for a while - i was afraid a little bit, but it turned out ... ok. we'll see... some new stuff - few words for my taize page. sometimes it's so easy to put a spell on yourself: don't look what's happening. close your eyes and dream about the bright future full of the goodness. yeah yeah. it works. but is it correct? ('today' - means 17th: it's 18th 0:05 AM) (comments:2) 22/09/2002 worked a lot last few days: the pages on knihomolna updated (adams, orwell, bulgakov, charms), i reworked the one about adams, checked all the links etc. also updated in a way my project page. met dan b. on wednesday morning: an interesting session!! the same day - but in the evening - another talk about all the forbidden things :) looks good... today met some of the schoolmates: the new semester begins tommorow. so the holidays are officialy over (it's also the first day of autumn). but we like autumn, don't we? i made some progress with the translation of the text about baltics - i'm behind the first half :| still better than nothing. (comment?) 26/09/2002 so. first days of school are behind us. what's new? seems like a quite reasonable timetable (no school on thursday and friday), seems like quite enjoyable lessons... met again many friends - kasia looking great, lukash lost weight (25 kg!), marjánka celebrates her birthday on the same day as i do, bedni got some cds, kuba is keen on the woods and many of us will join the team and we are going to prepare some 'real' news and reports from the planned nato summit in prague in november. on saturday, first of the english group should arrive to brno, the rest on sunday. some top top secret plans on their way as well. and i forget many many other things, that's for sure. so you see? busy is the word. and yep: be sure to check this extremly true keynotes by lawrence lessig about the opensource (thanks to luka for this one!).
