Seriously speaking...

On Saturday I'm going to Chicago until the New Years at least, so I don't know how often I'll be able to come and write here. But I'll try, and post some photo's aswell. After I come back I will promise you a surprise of sorts. But no revealing until then...
Well, I'll leave some hints on the way. :) First one is this link. I don't know why I didn't put this earlier, but I guess it's never too late. One of their activists and one of the few experts in modern slavery, Kevin Bales, was my Human rights class Professor this semester and that is probably the class I enjoyed the most so far in all of my studies. Not because of the topics ofcourse, which were dark and gloomy as anything, but the way it was conducted and the ideas we shared, truly amazing.
But that's not the point. Anyone who sometimes gets an urge to donate something to people, this is the place you should go to. They're doing such an amazing job all over the world, and I just hope that I'll be able to get involved in the future.
The other hint will be the best selling book on Amazon at the moment, soon to be a huuuge movie. Heh, after slaves there isn't much I can say that has any significance. FreeTheSlaves!!!

P.S. These photo's change every time you load this page, so please do. ;)

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 ...
