archives 09/11/2003 well - i still haven't managed to update really, but there's an important message: i have my mobile phone stolen, so you can delete my number... i will have a new one soon, and i will try to send everyone a message with it. :( (comment?) 12/11/2003 changes. but the feeling stays the same. it's just a different day, an altering enviroment. i moved from my parent's house, now i live with my friends in 3+1 flat. so greets to martin, marjanka, hanka, martinka and lenka. the only really sad fact about it: no connection there. the ma studies of journalism began. and it's gonna be tough i guess. during october i spent in the library more hours than i've did thru last three years! but majority of the texts is interesting. i found a job. working in mediaservis, a company that deliever the news and magazines. trying to get along with a huge system called hubbuch ;) my life also featuring: travelling, reading, listening, watching, browsing, partying, loving, going nuts and such. (comment?) 13/11/2003 yes, my new number - 736 779 920 - pretty. t-mobile, so forget about sms from net. sorry, pals ;) (comments:1) 14/11/2003 back on track i have to share some tips - i read czes³aw milosz's essay 'the captive mind' (zotroèený duch in czech) - a study on why some of great polish authors became supporters of stalinism. i think it makes it for a counterpoint with fiction anti-utopias (orwell, huxley) - as this was 'just facts'. recently i was wondering about how many books i would like to get through - reading texts for my courses 'unemployement as a social problem' (ulrich beck: the brave new world of work), 'critic theory of media' (christopher lasch: the narcissistic personality of our time; theodor adorno: the culture industry) or 'media, globalization and the national identity' (benedict anderson: imagined communities). i passed the test on csfd (after rating 200 films) and now i can add comments, which is really nice - i'm quite keen on it. next week i'm going to see good bye, lenin, a german comedy. and i shouldn't forget about the music! a couple of completly different albums: hard, but funny elixir - music, mathematic, magic. or softly swinging royksöpp - melody am. sun is shining, the cold breeze flows and i simply smile. the colours glitter, cats living next to our house walk slowly to show that it's their area and you're not more than a visitor, worth only because of bringing food. on monday, i found (via svetlo) a game - create your 'south park like' portret. it's very easy and the result is breathtaking - it moved the world of czech bloggers, you can see their gallery (i'm there too). i collected pictures of my schoolmates, and i'll put a gallery of my own soon. during the summer plenty of czech blogs has appeared. the long-awaited blog mania infected .cz - after many others, i've tried to contributed - have a look on an article i've written for magazine 'konec koncù' (ex bariéry). nowadays there's more than 1000 czech blogs, most of them of course bullshit. i'm about putting up a little page, list of blogs i visit regularly (plus some short description). some projects waiting in the queue - a webpage for kombajn, a special edition of obšastník (a weird webmag edited by michal s.), a travel diary from slovenia (june, with marjánka). some not completly clear ideas about my own page and some redesigning - and this time using tableless design - pure css! but i have to learn it first :] and also serious stuff: with martin w. we decided to start our academic careers ;) using our faculty media lab as a base, organizing a conferation. mr. koøínek, the man in charge of digital media on our faculty celebrated his 33th birthday, we've bought him a cake - it was perfect to see how surprised he was :] (comment?) 23/11/2003 it would be a nice weekend (i went for a photo-trip with kombajn and vojta and then we played need for speed: underground till midnite ;) unfortunately i lost my mobile phone... well, i've found it again today - it was deposited in bus-depot. because a bus ran over it :(( but - to look on the brighter side - the sim card is ok, so it's *just* the phone... hehe.. anyway, it was an exhausting week - on tuesday there was a big nsir party, where we watched a video (i'll put it on the nsir site soon) that was taken (mostly) late at nite in the headquarters :] it's really weird - and so was the evening. and it has continued on and on. then on thursday i, marjanka, filip and hudson went to see good bye, lenin, much successfull german movie. quite a good one, but not some awesome eighth wonder. i got the last douglas adams' book (in memoriam) and the weather is ugly, so i plan to stay in bed as much as possible :) thinking about xmas gifts? check this out... well - i would appreciate it :) (comments:1) 26/11/2003 tommorow i'm going to ostrava - i recieved a polish scholarship (for students with polish origin studying abroad). too bad i still don't know how much is it, so it'll be a surprise ;) yesterday i was astonished how stupid remarks some of my schoolmates had... incredible. one wouldn't expect that some of media students says: "i think the reason why so many latin-american soap operas are so successfull in postcommunist countries is anti-american [means: usa] standpoint due to the communist era."
