Chicago

IndianThis pic is the most interesting shot I did while staying here, and there's no Photoshop editing involved, just my camera acting up at night. It's the statue of an Indian near the Millennium Park, made by a Croatian sculptor Ivan Mestrovic. I kinda like it, it just has something about it...
Anyways, I've been here for more then two weeks now and what do I have to show for it? Not much really, I usually get to going to the Downtown (pretty much the only interesting part of the City) only at night and this statue is the only really succesful shot I got. I have a lot of family and friends photos inside though, so I'll probably post them later below.
I'm not revealing the surprise yet (not until I go back to the University, I don't have to drive to a post office there...), but I am going to share some stuff I've discovered in this time I've been inactive:
I've rented my Blog for the first time to Scooter McGavin over the BlogExplosion (in the right Sidebar) so, sorry everybody else, he was the first to come. Next time though, the price has to go up. ;)

New Comic Book Forum (soon a website too) on this adress.

An excellent Blog about political issues in America today - but without the political correctnes! Martian Antropologist gives it as it is, right here.

My bit to the Australian comic book community - 300 faces in 30 days, quite a target when you think about it. Nicely done and for a good cause - check it out.

Today: BBC.co.uk (whose link was undeservingly erased in the process of reconstructing the Blog) brings us a story about how a Bosnian laboratory will be conducting the DNA analyses of 350 Hurricane Katrina victims. The same laboratory was involved a year earlier in the DNA tests on Tsunami victims and still continues its work on identifying people found in hundreds of mass graves all over Bosnia and Herzegovina. Just my way of paying tribute to these awesome men and women.
Can't remember anything else at the moment except that the Blog will be going under some changes these days (adding new links, changing some old ones and ads, damned ads...), and I'll just post some other photos of Chicago and myself. :)

Chicago Art Museum, the most magnificent museum I've been to, with Picaso, Gauguin, Monet... Didn't know I knew so many french painters didya? :) But seriously, I loved every bit of it and I'll definitely go and check it out some more before I leave.

Millennium Park, shiny glassy egg that reflects Chicago. Much prettier in real life then my photo.

And for the end, Happy Holidays from me and my little cousin from the Windy City!!!

The Cutest Thing

Does it get any cuter??? Anyway, Cute Overload is a beautifuly cutest thingy blog ever ever blog... What can I say, cutest puppies get to me in ways unimaginable to people that don't know me that well... But not to be all cutsie and puppy eyes on you, a bit of WARNING! This post'll have to do with the next award I'll be giving away as soon as I figure out what it'll be...
I know, I know, I'm all talk and no pictures. Well, I'm gonna be changing that now that i have my LAPTOP!!! Here are some of the pictures of Campus, Oxford and other 'lovely sites' one might find in this area of the State of Mississippi. :) Click the image(s) for the larger version. This is one of two entrances to the library. Park in front of it is supposed to hold a memorial for the civil rights movement, whose significance in these parts you may get a glimpse of here and here . This is part of the atmosphere in the Grove (The Park of the Campus, where all is happening before the Football games). This is the Ole Miss Rebels Orchestra (or whatever they call them), extremely fine music they play but rarely succede to bring the Rebels to victory. Who cares about what's going on on the field! They call this ' the Rush '. Basically it means that many girls in the First year allow older girls to do to them whatever they want so they can get into a Sorority. Th...

Yogalistic

SORE ALL OVER!!! Seriously people, my roommate actually told me this morning I was breathing hard for some reason, and I think it was from exhaustion! But I think my muscles are actually rejoycing at the chance to do some real work after a long time. I think the only other time I felt like this in the past five years was after a two day trip across the mountains around Sarajevo with skiis and a lot of other mountaineering gear. Don't want to spread the story long and wide 'cos most of the stuff I mention you wouldn't have even heard of anyways. Yes, it's Yoga. Before Yoda, today Yoga. I guess I was actually subcontiously considering Yoga lessons when I posted that picture... But anyways, there're a lot of FREE lessons for OleMiss students and teaching staff (heh, when will we see a thing like that in Bosnia???) during the week and I had some extra time yesterday and hence my complaining. We actually did the same excercises as in this small pic, but don't ask me ...
