Me - - -> Godfather

Monday, December 31st, 2007

Today was the day! I officially became Simeon’s Godfather! And I must say - it’s really a great feeling. After an early start (8:30 - can you imagine waking up that early!?!?!), we got into the church. Simeon had his Armani… thing on that his grandma bought him half a year ago :) As it turned out baptisms here are part of the regular church service, not like in Bulgaria, where … they’re not… (more…)

Escape

Wednesday, December 26th, 2007

- I’m getting out of this can!
- Who’s gonna boost you over the wall? The warden?
- I ain’t going over the wall!
- Oh no?
- No, under it!
- Wha.. huh?
- Yeah, a tunnel!
- Ah you’re nuts!
[…]

- The guards will spot the tunnel in no time!
- You gotta have camouflage, I got it all worked out!

[…]

- The dirt? What are we going to do with the dirt from the tunnel?

[…]

- I ain’t going over the wall!

If someone knows where the lines are from - please tell me! Seems to be a movie from the 30s or 50s!

Edit: I talked to Christian and first of all - thanks for the lyrics ;) Further - he asked Amon personally (as you can see in the comments bellow ;) ) and it turns out that the lyrics are not from a movie, but from a radio show from the 30s/40s. That renders our task of finding the source yet even more difficult. But we won’t give up so easily!

Yay for me!

Tuesday, December 25th, 2007

So an hour ago we got back from Christmas dinner, which we spend in my cousins house. It was really cool and now I can barely move - I ate like way too much! But I got cool presents, which kinda sucked, because my gift acquiring strategy was something like “Uhm - I’ll just write my name on the presents from my mother!”. But than as I said, I got quite cool presents and all we got - or to phrase it more like it wasn’t my fault - all my mother got - was two identical souvenir thingies for the mother and the sister of my cousin’s wife!

Christmas time

Monday, December 24th, 2007

Now that I realised that some people don’t have anything better to do and actually bother reading blogs on Christmas [without attracting attention pointing at Marina], I decided to write a short post! So here it is:

Merry Christmas to you all! Hope you have a great time with the family, friends or whoever you are spending this great time of the year with!

Весела Коледа на всички ви! Желая ви да си прекарате една чудесна вечер с близки и роднини!

Ich wünsche Euch allen ein sehr frohes Weihnachtsfest und eine tolle Bescherung! Hoffe Ihr verbringt einen tollen Abend mit Familie, Freunde oder mit wem auch immer Ihr den Abend verbringen wollt!

Stay tuned for updates! Tomorrow I’ll make a post about all the kick-ass presents I’ll get! I’m so excited! (Well - to be honet - I’m not. Since I bought most of my presents myself, there is not a lot of excitement!)

The Royal Channel

Sunday, December 23rd, 2007

My first YouTube discovery I am posting on my blog! Yay! I just read about in on Paperlilies blog and I found it to be so amazing that I felt the urge to share it with you guys! So - it’s about the ‘Royal Channel’ - the YouTube channel of the British royal family! Just watch the Christmas Broadcast from 1957 (embedding disabled -.-) and enjoy the Queen’s great posh accent! Priceless! I’m definitely subscribing to this one! :D

Edit: Haha - just saw that it is also mentioned on the official google blog! :)

Hitman

Friday, December 21st, 2007

I just got back from watching Hitman and I am so excited that I decided to write something about my excitement. Now don’t think Hitman is such a great movie - it’s just the fact that a lot of it was filmed in Sofia. And it was really a lot of fun watching a movie, filmed in Sofia, yet playing in Moscow. I even reckon seeing them film a scene when I was in Sofia some time ago. Well - I remember seeing a film being filmed at the exact same spot, with lots of ‘Russian’ cars so… it MUST have been Hitman! And you probably can imagine me sitting in the theatre, how I would start shouting every time I see something familiar. (more…)

Deni isn’t stupid!

Wednesday, December 19th, 2007

Today Ivan and I had the most wonderful idea of how to take his girlfriend, Deni, for a ride. The plan was flawless! Yesterday I learned that she was kind of upset with me, because I uploaded a video from our holidays, where she says something… stupid? Nah - it wasn’t that stupid, but I managed to make it look stupid. On the video you can see me annoy her. At some point Ivan tells me to stop and just film the pretty girl. (more…)

YAPW [yet another pointless weblog]

Wednesday, December 19th, 2007

Here we go - my new blog (sounds like I had an old one… which I don’t)! Yesterday it turned out that Marina has started bloging and so I thought “Hm, why not! I always dreamed of having my own blog!” Feel free to subscribe to stay up-to-dated on various very important topics, like all the interesting stuff that happens to me all the time… not. Now seriously - I plan to post interesting videos I’ve found on YouTube, other random stuff, maybe some technical info (like how to get f***ing Flash to preload a video correctly) and of course updates on my personal life - whenever it might concern you ;)

You probably wonder why I’m writing in English and not in Bulgarian (if you are Bulgarian) or in German (if you are German). Well if you didn’t get the hint - Bulgarian would be a bit difficult to understand for my 46356456 German friends, who are already subscribed (even though I haven’t yet published the blog) and obviously the same applies for German language with my Bulgarian friends. Yeah - and please excuse my English, as I’ll be making mistakes for sure!

Hm - that’s pretty much it! Feel free to subscribe and leave a comment (and hater comments are also welcome, so Alex - do your best!)
