Presents

I thought I would write about sth because it's let's say a "hot" topic of these days. No it's nothing dramatic. The post is goin' to be about christmas presents ! I think everybody likes it and think a lot abot what they gonna buy for their family and friends. I always try to think about presents as early as it's possible. I don't really like the option of buying presents at the last moment. I think it's kind of buying something accidental which for me is not good for a Christmas present. I always try to observe a person and  find out what she or he needs and what could be useful fo her or him. Of course it doesn't work every time, but if that method doesn't work I just watch things and try to find some inspiration. Thankfully I always find some idea. Recently I'm really fond of buying presents by internet. I must say this is really helpful for me in many ways. First of all I don't have to run blindly through hundreds of shops and finally come back home with empty hands. I just sit at home and quietly browse through pages with shops. Secondly I have more time to think if I'd like to buy product without any pressure. In shops it is sometimes really difficult when you are constantly being watched by a shopassitant. And finally I have a huuuge choice with variations of shops. I think everybody will find on Internet something appropriate.

Illness

November, unpleasent weather, short days. The last thing you wish to have is an illness and to get stuck in your house to sink in a total sadness. But maybe it is something good about being ill ? Maybe it is possible to find some advantages of staying at home and to be cut off from the rest of the world. I had this experience recently. I was ill for a week and I was spending the whole days in my flat. I remember my first feeling when I fell sick, I was furious. I didn't really know what was worse, the fact that I felt very very bad ( I was really close to death) and couldn't do a lot of about it or the fact that I was stuck on my bed and I had to say goodbye to all of my plans for the weekend and for the following week. But after a day of anger and all-night sleeping I thought that it could be the nice change. First of all there is not a lot of opportunities in life to just stop caring and sleep for the half a day and rest. Secondly there is not a lot of opportunities to find the time and to do things which we never do when we daily run at Univeristy and keep concentrating on our duties. For example reading books, magazines and just slow down a bit. And finally there is not a lot of opportunities to just stop and think a bit about everything, have some reflexions, lay in a silence and concentrate on life, clean up the mind. I think it is really important in our life, but during our daily hustle we just forget about it. Maybe each of us should be ill sometimes ? (;
