2014

Well, we're already 35 days into 2014 and I guess this post comes a little late, but I didn't get the urge to write it until now, so here goes.
I set a lot of goals for my 2014 self in my contemplative period between my birthday and New Year's Eve and to be honest the list has been growing all the time with constant tiny new little challenges. I guess I need a place to keep track of all this and I don't mind it being public. As little and insignificant as these things might be, they are my little victories and they matter to me.

This list will most probably expand as this year progresses, so just in case you're interested, check in from time to time. I will also mark goals I have reached no matter how tiny. I will keep track of my progress on every goal and update accordingly.

In 2014 I will:
  • be drama-free for at least (a total of) 10 months this year (1 down)
  • get rid of everything and everyone negative in my life (currently identifying negatives)
  • learn to let go and move on (almost there...)
  • try to make amends regarding someone I want in my life
  • read at least 12 books of 300 pages and over (5 down)
  • go without junk food for a solid 182 days or until July 1st (35 days down)
  • complete a 30 day jump rope, squat and plank challenge (4 days into all three)
  • attend bikram yoga class at least once (ongoing research)
  • run a 5k (currently in training)
  • learn to swim properly 
  • re-learn to bike
  • watch the Super Bowl
  • learn the rules of American football and European football (getting there)
  • complete my music and business projects 
  • learn to sing 5 songs I consider hard to sing (1 down)
04.02. 15 goals in total; completed 1; 14 left

X-Men Origins: Wolverine

"Last night, a stolen, incomplete and early version of X-Men Origins: Wolverine was posted illegally on a website. It was without many effects, had missing and unedited scenes and temporary sound and music. We immediately contacted the appropriate legal authorities and had it removed. We forensically mark our content so we can identify sources that make it available or download it. The source of the initial leak and any subsequent postings will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law – the courts have handed down significant criminal sentences for such acts in the past. The FBI and the MPAA also are actively investigating this crime. We are encouraged by the support of fansites condemning this illegal posting and pointing out that such theft undermines the enormous efforts of the filmmakers and actors, and above all, hurts the fans of the film." Yes, it did leak. Yes, it is a "crappy" version of the movie. Yet fans like me, and I believe I'm not alone out

The Dark Knight

Once upon a time in the far far away kingdom of Finland, there was a beautiful princess. Everyone were amazed by her voice and she had eyes like the purest mountain stream. All the young men in the kingdom wanted her as a wife, but the princess had a secret only her father knew. She was a he. Time went by and the princess had to get married. His father knew that no man would agree to take his son, so he locked him up in the tallest tower. The king had read many stories of how brave knights saved the princesses from high towers, so he placed a dragon to guard the princess. Word soon spread out across the kingdom and the bravest of knights shined their armor and traded for the best steeds. There was one amongst them that was different. He was a she. She had no experience whatsoever in dealing with dragons, but decided to try her luck just to prove she can be as tough as the men. She rode day and night for 4 days until she reached the tallest tower with the dragon guarding it. She took he

Писмо до любимия мъж

Ти не се страхуваше да плуваш в дълбокото. И полудях по теб. Обърнах живота си на сто и осемдесет градуса и скочих. В дълбокото. Не умеех кой знае колко да плувам, но вярвах, че двамата ще се държим, когато някой се умори. Но теб те нямаше там.  Цапах с ръце и крака, държах главата си над бездната и се опитвах да не мисля за нея. За миг се вцепенявах, когато ме прерязваше мисълта колко незначителна съм за живота и колко несъществена за света. Тогава усещах как краката ми натежават като грях, а ръцете ми са пречупени пориви. И студените пластове ме засмукват надолу. Към мрака.   Много пъти се разделях мислено и много пъти търсех думите на прошката, която никога не изрекох. И после някаква животинска сила ме изтласкваше отново за поредната глътка въздух. И следващото загребване напред.   Понякога си мислех, че виждам острова, където ти вече си пристигнал и ме чакаш... И това винаги се оказваше гърба на нечия чужда мечта.   Понякога виждах и перките на акули. Тогава се съср
