every summer has to end

so, the summer is over now. i've done sooo many things, i've seen so many things, i've been to the US, and then to Malta, i've met lovely people, i've seen the most beautiful landscapes, i've learned so much and i've made experiences which i never imagined. a summer with a lots of first times. and i've enjoyed every second of it.

old busses

party boat

every day is a school day

that might be true, but not for me. it was my last day today, and i had to say a lot of goodbyes, which wasn't easy. but we took some photos, and i took a lot more photos with my heart, so, now i have there new photos, not only the old ones :)

fortunately there is a lot more to learn, today's test showed, that i have to work on a lot of things, my english is not bad, and is improving, but not nearly as good as i wish. so, i can come back.

and fortunately i didn't manage to go to Popeye Village, and i haven't been to Comino yet, so, Malta, i'm not done with you.

oh, and today's greatest news: this time i survived the thought experiment, the one with the bunker :) thank you guys!

and we were on a boat party tonight. it was a real party on a real boat, with a lot of people, was fun, (and i think i reached my limit of electro for a while now :) )

blue grotto

this time in a boat :) was beatutiful. and with a bit more practice i'll be able to apply for a job in english. but i don't need to apply for a job in english :)

blue!!

be polite

there is a polite way to say if somebody is old: he or she is kicking 30 :) (in a few years i might change this extremely big number to a bigger one.)

and arguing about stupid little things ends up in someone saying bullshit, or something that could be even worse, so people in the world, please, don't argue.

and the best way to practise phone calls is to sit with our backs towards each other, so we can't see each other while speaking, like in a real phone call, just without phones :)

so school was great today, i really enjoyed every second of it :)

but the most fascinating i did today was to visit the ancient temples, Hagar Qim and Mnajdra. it's simply impossible to imagine that they have been built 5-6-7000 years ago. i can't imagine how the world was before i was born (probably black and white?)

6000 years old graffiti

an apple a day

i woke up early today, and without alarm. that's great and sad at the same time, but that's an other story, and i've learned my lesson... the school was full of the new students today, lots of swiss and polish students. 

the weather changed completely, it feels like autumn now (still 30 degrees).

we had brownies for dinner, with vanilla ice cream, best decision ever :) and i'm going to eat today's apples tomorrow, i couldn't buy any nice apples in the morning. and i'm falling asleep right now, even after 4 coffees today :)

no school today

so we spent a long long day travelling to the northern end of the island, to the paradise bay. there we jumped few times with the waves, and decided to relax. then everyone fell asleep at the beach :) so, no Popeye Village today...

after the beach we took the bus to the Golden Bay, to watch the most romantic sunset. but this time we couldn't hear the hot sun fizzling while falling into the sea. it just disappeared behind the clouds. it must be some kind of magic... :)

cliffs and jumping

there are some cliffs you have to jump off in your life. and i jumped. and not only once yesterday.

the wind changed yesterday (no wind --> wind) and we had a nice trip to Marsaxlokk, and to St. Peter's Pool, to the amazing beach. and when i say amazing, you have to imagine it, and not simply amazing, but amazingamazing.
and now today's plans are just waiting for us, let the adventure begin :)

prickly pears 2

prickly pears on bucket list marked as checked :) and marked as tasty :)

we spent our day on Gozo today. the Azure Window is still amazing, and imagine me, looking at the beautiful blue sea and the beautiful blue sky... now i have no doubts that blue is my favourite colour (i never had any doubts, but if i had, they would be blown away today). aand, this time we found the way to the citadel :) so another must-be-done-this-time item is done now. and finally we went to the Ramla Bay, to the sandy beach with red sand. now i only have one more wish, Malta, please show me a beach with blue sand, and you'll win my heart for ever.

red sandy beach

even the ferry knows what we're learning in class

it's okay

oysters, clams and cockles

i've just had my first oysters!!! and it wasn't even that bad :) i never thought i'm going to try them, but i did :) yesss, i did :) and the waiter was very kind and packed the shell for me in a little bag. hmmm, that was the only kind thing he did tonight, but now i'm the proudest owner of an oyster-shell :)

today's test was quite difficult, but we all mastered it, of course :)

i took some photos today, okay, not some, exactly two, because i forget to put the memory card back into the camera (again... 3rd time this week... what's wrong with you, girl?) so i need a cable to get these two photos (of the oyster) to here, and of course i don't have one.

and we had a wine tasting today too, exactly like in february :) and again, the first wine was the best. but i'm not an expert, maybe next time i'll be grown up enough for a less sweet wine. or not.

prickly pears

they are on my bucket list. the prickly pear icecream is definitely not going to be my favourite, but the real fruit deserves a second chance. like everybody else.

we had a nice trip to Valletta today, with the school, and with a guide. and now we know, that maltese are not feeling arabian, neither italian, nor british, they're feeling maltese :) and we learned a lot of interesting things about the knights of saint john.

and we had a lovely school dinner today too. the pasta was good, and the waiter was a beginner :) i didn't learn today anything for the test tomorrow, but i'm sure i'll learn tomorrow at breakfast, and then hope for the best :) (i actually learned the new words yesterday, so i'm not a that bad student)

and a zebra is a zebra, not a z-i-bra.

and i got a message today from Eda. and i'm happy now, and i love you too sweetheart :)

i've just noticed that one

does it count...

...if i've met someone who met the Queen? i hope so, because that's what happened today.

we've just arrived back from Mdina, it's still soo beautiful. and still very silent. we had a bus drive there that took one and a half hour, or even more. i stopped checking the time at a point. but we're on holiday, so fortunately nobody had to hurry :) we had a delicious indian dinner in mdina, with lovely french accordion music :) and i decided to like indian food. and to like the accordion further on.

oh, and we discussed some interesting questions today at school, so, never pour water on hot or already burning oil! but that's something i already knew... but i didn't know, that i shouldn't open my eyes while sneezing, unless i want them to pop out and rolling around... (noway, i like my eyes)

my favourite blue

clogs.

do you always get blisters or swollen feet after a day of working hard, or just walking around? are you suffering from back ache after a day spent in the office? then check out our brandnew shoes, clogs. innovative, medically approved and available in several different colours and styles. if god would wear shoes, it would be clogs.  :) and, check out our clig-clogs in the online shop too!

aaand, arriving on time for a blind date isn't considered to be important. it's enough to be fashionable to win his or her heart. (you know, because of first impressions, 30 seconds, instincts and things like that)

swimming in the sea: 3/3 :)

O'malleys, the alley cats

i don't think there are any dogs in malta. and i've never heard stories about cats biting girls, especially in malta, so i feel pretty safe here :)
we did the placement test today at school (c1 this time :)), then we had two lessons. and wisdom teeth are wisdom teeth in english too. in the afternoon there was a welcome party, on the roof. i'm soo happy being here again, the important ones do remember me :)
there are a lot of polish students here right now, and germans and italians too, and this time there's a hungarian girl too :)

we were at the beach after school, and today i had no problems to open my eyes under water. yesterday the sea felt more salty, or my eyes got used to it now :) but my eyes aren't used to that much coffee i drank today... lesson learnt. (or learned?)

the view form our apartment

aaaand, hello again!

yes, a dream came true, i'm in malta again :) this time for two weeks, i promise.
