And the "Best postcard award" winner iiiiiiis ....

... do you remember? My Best postcard contest. Well I guess I'm not that popular Because I only got a few but nevertheless ... :) My dorm room is tiny anyway so that's enough. Now those postcards are decorating my tiny room:


Thank you all for sending them! :)

However, the time came, I guess there isn't any other postcard coming and I have to choose the postcard I like best. Here are my three favourites:

This one is from my friend Tine who googled my nickname and sent me some picture results. Nice one! :))

The second one is from my friend Nina. This postcard says so little but is funny when you connect the message and the picture. It made me laugh. :)

And the last one is from my friend Meta. This postcard is so weird it's funny. :D She sent it to me from Slovakia. (Which is not Slovenia, by the way ...)


And which one do I like best? My vote goes to the second one, the cute "Stay cool" Penguine. :) Sooo Nina ... you get the award! And let me know what kind of a notebook you would like to get. :)

And there's another thing. I find this postcard thing a very nice thing to do. I love sending postcards and getting them too. A nice message in your mailbox can make your day. So I figured I should try doing that more often. I found this website called "Postcrossing" where you send and recieve postcards to and from random people. So whether you want to collect some stamps, maybe some postcards, meet some people or just recieve and send a nice message from time to time, that's a very nice website that can help you with that. :)

Have a nice day, everyone!

THE time of the year



What I hate about Mondays is driving. I drive from my hometown to the place I go to school every Monday and it's a looong drive. 220 kilometers to be exact. In my opinion that's a waste of time, I want teleporting so badly.
But more and more I approach May, more and more Mondays lose their meaning, time just changes: now, in the middle of the month I don't have days of the week any more, I only have 15 days left until that exam, 31 days until the other exam ... "Oh, the threat of approaching exams!" My friend Nina said in her Facebook message. Everything changes when this time comes ...

We don't think about anything else any more. I told my mom: "Don't ask me what to make for lunch, my brain is too occupied with English syntax, Slovene literature and other useless stuff I have to learn and remember. I don't have time to think about small matters."
My world becomes limited to books, notes, post-its, colorful pens and markers and a lot of coffee. I can't even express myself properly. (so I do it with lolcats :P )

However, this kind of concentration requires a lot of motivation, which I don't have, because the ability to become depressive every time I have to put a bit of effort in anything was given to me at my birth. That's why my previous post was written. I also have 2 motivation messages on the board above my desk:
The first one is the "absolutely motivated" song from FCC cheer camps and the second one is an SMS from my friend. "You're a tough woman, you can do it." :) So.. with all that equipment I am well armed to go to the war. The war of nerves, neverending books and oral exam blackouts, that happen to me regularly. We can do it, sir, yes sir!!! (sir means cheese in our language so that one is very funny to me :P )

So.. why this post? I came to Maribor today and intended to sit at my desk all day long and study non-stop (coffee breaks only) but then I saw my lovely mother gave me the "One lovely blog award", so I had to write something! Awwww!

Mom, family members usually aren't allowed to participate in prize competitions. ;) I'm a rookie here at blogger so, if you don't mind, I'll wait with sharing this prize at least until I finish my exams, lol. Maybe this calls for another (a bit cheesy ;) ) lolcat:

Back to my didactic books now ... ;)
