Autumn 2008

It's getting colder here... Darker and wetter. Winter is at our doorstep. Yet... I won't see it :-) I will be leaving soon to some warmer place 10.000km away - to Malaysia. I'm excited. And yet, so not ready for the crazy heat and humidity. I will go from one extreme into another. Wow. Will post some photo soon to compare these extreme oppoistes. Good luck to me! ;-)

The world looks so much better now

Wow... was quite a ride... what to say... a huge relief after Barack Obama won. Seems like history was written and the whole world was excited about America. We haven't seen that for quite a long time. It really makes me happy. I was so long interested in this process. It was amazing to see all the highs and lows. But most of all, it was a great story. I'm sure one day somebody will shoot a movie on Barack Obama's incredible victory. I wish him best of luck and may he help the world to become a better place.

Victory for Barack Obama!

Finally!!! It happened beyond our wildest dreams! Barack Obama won the elections on 2008 and he will be the next president of the USA. I am so proud of the US people and I really don't know, if it's more of a Obama victory or a more of a victory of the American people.
I was awake all night, I watched CNN and some other programmes... It was just incredible, when we saw how he took Pennsylvania, Ohio... I almost thought this is it! But I was still sceptical... When i saw his lead in Florida, I was confident! He exceeded all expectations - it was a landslide victory. And his speach was breath taking. A moment we will always remember. America is truly a land of opportunity and equality, you just need to work hard, be honest and have ideas. He beat the establishment of his own party and the best candidate of his rival's party. I can't fully grasp what this win means. It has to sink in...
I also need to praise McCain for his marvellous concession speech. He showed his real face, that's the McCain we missed in these months. You can clearly see how relieved he was, how gracious and humble. I hope he will have a long life. He's a great American. Unfortunately, his campaign sucked, had too many lows, too little highs.

I'm also happy that there's no more Sarah Palin. She was really a disgrace for this year of change. This was McCain's biggest mistakes. People were more scared of Palin than Obama.
And now, I hope America can head into a new direction of working together with the rest of the world, solving global problems together, ending wars and restoring confidence in the West.

Good luck!

My friend calls me fish

Why my friend Cherry said this?

我是一隻魚
喜歡游來游去
下個月我要游去馬來西亞
去當沙嗲魚.


She is so naughty, she's always teasing me. But I like it :)

November is here!

Wow... Time passes so fast this year. It's november already. Outside it's really getting colder. We had some nice sunny days in october. Sometimes I woke up and my eyes were so hurt by the strong sunlight. I even wore sunglasses at home. The cats are eating more and more, they want to stay inside to be kept in a warm and cosy place. This especially applies to Milan. He's limping on 1 leg. Krempača and Miša Piša are just going in and out, they're still active. We even had Gačnik yesterday coming down the hill, visiting 'his' original family. It's now 8 months since he left our house and moved to some other place. But lately he comes back a lot. But just for few hours.
Well, my mood is somewhat similar to the behavior of the cats. Sometimes I feel tired, so I'm resting like Milan. Then again, I feel like wanna be active, so I hop around like Miša Piša. And eventually I'm like Gačnik, moving out, leaving for a while and I guess there will be a time when I will be going back to my house and this special place I live in. But it's time to discover the world, once again. I want to face new challenges, accept the changes and hopefully learn a lot on my path of personal evolution. Striving for a better self and for a more peacefull existence. I look forward to november, I will report on the changes that will occur soon.

I still can't be sure that Obama will win

I am not sure what to think lately... The McCain pack is trying it's hardest to label Obama with all kind of nonsense. Republican smear tactics as usual. It seems that the American people are strongly leaning towards Obama. On the other hand, I saw on TV a guy said he knows many people have lied to the pollsters. And he was expecting a big surprise. We're talking about the Bradley effect. I can say it loud and clear now: If Obama is not elected, it's because of racism! It's no other possible reason to lose at this time. You have the economy crushed, you have a dumb Sarah Palin and an old confused John McCain, virtually with same policies as Bush. So, what can make Obama lose? Racism. Simple as that. This would be devastating for America and it's standing in the world. People are not enthusiastic about McCain, to say the least. And Sarah Palin terrifies the world. Please, Americans, elect a smart president! After you saw what a dumb one can do to the USA and the rest of the world. Please! I beg you all! Go and vote, don't be lazy on tuesday! This is my small contribution to this process. I just hope I'm proven wrong and Obama wins! Hope is the only thing we can have now. Hope.

Who will be the next president of USA?

Soon we will know...
