April 7

The time pass so fast! I remember Christmas, New Year Eve, Janurary... it's seem to be yesterday! But we are in the middle of semestre, at the begining of spring and I really don't know how fast we passed through this months! 

Sometimes I just sit for a while and think what I was doing last year at the same day. I was in Wrocław. That's for sure, and I think that I was different. I think about how I've changed in this year. I clearly learned a lot of thinks, also a lot of things have changed since that day. It is strange because I never think about such things, during a whole week I usually only get focused on daily stuff. I appreciate that sometimes I give myself this kind of reflections, it's is important to realize where our lifes are going!

This is also a special day for me, beacuse it's one of my best friends birthday! I know Jarek since I was in primary school, and we are still very close toghether! I wish you all the best!!!

BOVSKA

I would like to introduce to you a polish singer who I discovered lately. Maybe she is not new to everyone, but I heard her music a few months ago.  Mrs Magda Grabowska-Wacławek, stage name Bovska. 

I must admit that at first her music was a bit strange for me, I liked only a couple of songs and she wasn't very a attractive artist for me. I felt courious about her because, finally, something new came on the polish music market. She was absolutely unsusual since the first sounds and for me she is far away from all the trash music that artist use to make nowadays. Her song "Kaktus" catch me the most! I was listening to it all days, again and again! BOVSKA - KAKTUS

A week ago I had a pleasure to partecipate at her concert in Wrocław! I was so suprised about her! I thought that she is very calm, peaceful and toned down person. It turns out that she is the opposite! She is so powerful, coluorful and vivid that she left me spechless from the start to the end. She field the room with an amazing energy, she started to dance and jump all around the stage. I was that suprised because her songs which are available on Youtube are not that energetic as she showed us at the gig. 

I think that she is the best choice for those who would like to know some knew kind of music this spring! If you will ever have the chance to listen to Bovska live, go and seee it yourself. She is like the rappresentation of the spring - she is bright, sunny, full of colour, energy, sun and smile :) 

BOVSKA - NIE OGARNIAM

Why is Pulp Fiction the best movie on the world?

I adore Quentin Tarantino! He is one of my favourite people on the world! He is so smart, funny and extremly ironic. He shows it in every film he make. His films are something more than an ordinary cinema production. They are intriguing, well directed and full of stories that keep crossing eachother till the end. These are masterpieces, without a doubt! I've choose Pulp Fiction because it was the first Tarantino's film I ever saw. I was around twelve years old. It left me spechless. I couldn't get how he made it work, how he actually gave the sense to all of the chapters and brought it to the one conclusion. That's why I made a list of things that probably made me love this film.

1) Division into parts - it surly was the first film that I saw with that king of scenario. Every chapter tells one story which at first might seem completely seoarate but at the end they start to make sense. 

2) The cast - till Pulp Fiction I only remembered John Travolta from "Saturday Night Fever" and it was amazing to see him playing the part of a gangster. Bruce Willis and Uma Thurman were also absolutely great.

3) The soundtrack - I would like to know how many time Tarantino had spend on choosing those tracks to the movie but they fit there like any others could possibly fit! I started to appreciate the music when I was older but it gave me a trill since I've heard it(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y4cLmXml8O0)

4) Dialogues - I saw Pulp Fiction with many of my friends and some of them can't watch it with me anymore because sometimes I speak with the actors, while watching I keep telling actors lines. I'm not doing it for upset my friends I just can't stop to do it. The dialogues are so great that I can't stop myself from doing it. 

5) Details - the movie is complete. From the top to the bottom - it is just perfect, The details are in this film like the cherry on the cake. Words, things they are using, clothes, comic inserts - they all made an unique atmosphere of an incredibly good film .

For those who had never seen it I strongly encourage to do it ASAP! And fot those who had seen it - do it once again! :) 

Pavia

Today I wanna write about a city which immensly suprised me! I went there fo my first Eramsus exchange. At first I wasn't happy about it because I was hoping to going to Rome! Obviously I had no idea of where Pavia is and what is it's history. I was only a little disappointed for a while but then I started to enjoy the idea of going to study abroad, no matter what the place it was. When I got there I was with my mom and a friend who also came there for study. We had a lot of lagguages and it was raining. And then we had to walk a lot but once arrived at the dormitory it was axctually nice. 

As soon as I started visit the city I deeply fell in love with the streets, buildings and with the city itselef.  The atmosphere was fantastic! Pavia is a town situated in north Italy, in Lombardy region. It's very close to Milan. When I visit Italy I usually choose the centre of the peninsula so I had no idea of the cherm of the north architecture. First months was hard because my dormitory was 1 hour from the centre. And after 10pm there was no public transport at the city so I had to walk a lot and I actually got lost thousands of time before I found the shortest way. But every single step was worth it because it was a real adventure. It brings back so many incredible memories which I want to double with another exchange! This time - Florence! 

I highly recomand you to visit Pavia! No words can describe its beauty. I am sure that you we'll be as exited about it as I am! Above it's a photo of Ponte Coperto by night. 

What about women?

Today we celebrate a very special day - International Woman's Day! It special because during this day we feel important and unique. We received gifts, flowers and wishes from all male friends, dads and uncles, we feel special, loved and appreciated. 

But first of all, we, as woman, have to remember why we are celebrating this day and because of whom! We have to remember all these women who faught strongly for make a better future. I am greatful to all of them, who sacrificed their lifes for make a world a better place for every single girl.

Personally, I would like to wish to all of us, to be less mean to others women, because the power and the strenght lies on unity. Sometimes we forget that and we shouldn't. Toghether we are powerfull and we can to amazing things, like the ladies which fought for our rights. 

I also want you all to be yourself and to belive in yourselfs, even if it might sound like a cliche, but it is true. We can do spectacular things and every single one of us is AWESOME! 

Spring is coming

After a long and really harsh winter, step by step, we can finally start to see that it might the time of spring to come. Even if the calendar spring it's like a month far away, as soon as the temperature has risen and nobody is freezing outside anymore, everyone around started to smell spring! 

This is the time when I really appreciate the value of the sun. The time when even a small and innocent ray of sunshine make most people happier and nicer. 

For me the sun is like salvation and a kind of gratification for all past gloomy, dark days of winter. I am a meteoropathic person, rain cause that I'm highly melanconic and sad, when it's windy I'm very anxious, when there is a lot of snow I'm calm because usually when there is a lot of snow on the streets everthing it's very bright and that's fine for me, also because when there is a lot of snow the temperature is not that low and it's simply pleasent. And finally when the sun start to shine I am happy to get out of the bed and I'm ready to do stuff. When the weather is beautiful I just can't stay at home, it feels like a waste of time. So I always go for a walk or I organise some bicycle trip. 

It feels so awesome when you can go outside without a thousand clothes on and I really can't wait for it! 

Mountain trip

I had a chance to visit polish mountains during my winter break and I decided to visit Zakopane. I went there for a few days without any plans of what to do. Once arrived at the hotel what caught my attention was the weather. The temperature was higher than at Poznań. That was a suprise because I expected an incredible cold. My room was small and there was no super view from the window but it didn't bother me at all because i didn't spent there a lot of time. Basically, I was there only in the evening because we spent every single moment outside. 

It was so amazing to walking between the mountains and admire their hugeness. The mountains make me feel so small but it's a nice feeling. I had visited the city, I tried the traditional mountain meals and went to a few ski slops. Last time I had the ski on my feet was a long time ago and I was afraid to had forgot how to skiing but it turned out that I can still do it. 

Skiing was one of the things that I liked the most during this short holidays. I also loved the ice labirynth which is the biggest on the world. It was made this year by only 40 mens. I had a lot of fun while trying to find the escape. I definitly will return there on summer because I would love to reach the peak of Giewont mountain!
