I did something today that I didn't do in a very long time: When it started to rain and I felt like taking photos, I held onto that thought and actually went outside, neglecting the work I was doing for my paper. It felt familiar โ just like the autumn weather that has been coming up. And I think in the midst of my love for cuffs and tea and September feelings, I might be able to find myself again.
It is my birthday on tuesday and I am going to be on a short holiday together with Daniel, Simon and Anne. :)

For the next seven days until the end of the month, I'm planning on working much less and enjoying my time off more!
I don't remember a time in my life when my thoughts were only in Russian. Even though English is not my native language, life without the American flag and the English language now feels foreign to me. โค๏ธ

I love spending time with him (grandpa) from day ONE of my life... This relationship is not easy & Iโm not easy (hot-headed, at times stubborn & absolutely have no filter) to get along with, but love is always stronger any confrontation ๐ #birthdaymonth #birthdayweek
I could spend the entire summer on a different bench there, staring at the water & trees while listening to Joshua Tree. And with my July mood, that would be enough.
Some more of the winter stems that decorated our house over Christmas - now consigned to the bin to be recycled.
I like January as it is my birthday month :-). I'm not hinting ..... ;-).

Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew
When I bit off more than I could chew
But through it all, when there was doubt
I ate it up and spit it out
I faced it all and I stood tall
And did it my way - Frank Sinatra
Did I ever fail in life ... ? I have ... horribly, miserably, with consequences (including anxiety attacks which I never had before) ... was I embarrassed... ?!! Very !! That was long ago & I was young ... and that was my way.
First thing I do being back ... ? Trying to catch up on New York Times under the Brooklyn Bridge. Some habits die hard or donโt die at all ! The rock (chair) under the bridge is officially now my fav place. I can sit there in my zone blocking the entire world out! Iโll read, Iโll look over my Italian, Iโll drink coffee & turn off the phone ! #unplug

For me traveling & exploring is life ... Regardless of location, near or far, national or international nothing (not counting Brooklyn, Brooklyn Bridge & Italy) makes me feel more alive than anticipation of unknown ๐
this month is filled with birthdays in my family and in my circle of friends...i lost 2 in recent years due to the passing of my grandparents, but they will always be remembered in the leo pool. here's to everyone that shares this month with me...from new friends (you know who you are), to cherished old friends (we are really not that old), to the next generation of leos, and the one past as well. to traditions, to new beginnings, and to celebrations. may this be a wonderful year for you all and may your wishes come true :)
Its the end of May! My birthday month is going away again, to come back again next year...Again Happy Birthday to me, Happy Birthday to me! 2013 Birthday passes by, taking away my teenage! I cant wait for my birthday to come back!!

He was a musing discontented, lonely reader of books, of which there are so many in America scattered thinly and almost pathetically throughout the towns and cities: easy to hurt, open to abuse and scorn, much too sensitive in a thoughtful formal loneliness to withstand the harsh buffooneries, the horseplay, the animal brutality, the wild carelessness of a savage rhapsodic America in its shouting youthfulness. He was alone and fearful, and sometimes also scornful. He was different from other kids his age who generally spent their time in ice cream parlors, on drugstore corners, on athletic fields. He was different from them and he was proud of it. At seventeen now, now, he may be walking home from the library at evening with a few books under his arm, or taking solitary walks, or sitting in his window reading. He goes to the library and spends the morning poring reflectivity through several biographies. Every now and then he looks up with amused but rather sheepish smile. The Town and The City, Jack Kerouac
I donโt know what has happened to the world since 2000. And after 2019, it feels as if the world keeps turning upside down even more โฆ I was always a big fan of libraries. I can be very moody (I could be very, very, very moody) but as I entered libraries always felt calm, as if I just got an injection of anesthesia. I've learned over the years my personality where going into the world of books and losing myself there is the the best medicine ever. Biographies, literature, poetry, philosophies, science & etc. No, millions of books. Inspiration, hope, love. I love all libraries, but only three are my favorite: my hole-in-the-wall library in Ukraine (home town), Locust Valley & Lowell.

Samantha Reed Smith June 29,1972 - August 25, 1985 Wiki: Samantha was an American schoolgirl, activist and the youngest piece ambassador in time of the Cold War. She became famous being only 5 y/o after writing a letter to Queen Elizabeth II and 5 years later to Soviet leader, Yuri Andropov. She was invited to Soviet Union in July of 1983. Samantha became an inspiration to other children ambassadors. She died in a plane crash on August 25, 1985. Note: This is not me being biased as Russian speaker & someone born in USSR. Iโm just fascinated with this child who wanted to do something for world peace at such young age ! I donโt see cultures as different, I see one peace for all !!!
