The novelty of a fandom is definitely wonderful except for the fact that it's a bit time-consuming. Especially when it triggers your interest in something else.
Thanks to The Avengers and Jeremy Renner in particular now I'm not only an Avengers fan but also am back to my early January self - a bit obsessed with Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol.

And you'll ask yourself
Where is my mind?
Way out in the water
See it swimmin'
Yep, it pretty much summaries the situation ))) Not to mention the fact that I have to find time for taking an exam and I can't even make myself to e-mail the professor.

Long time no see :)
Since the last time I've been here:
- plus one married friend
- plus two (or maybe three) new fandoms
- minus one and a half job
- minus my good old mobile but
- plus a new one mobile which seems to have potential to become just as good friend of mine as my RAZR V3 was *gg*
It kind of summaries the most important things, it seems :)

Looking through my bookmarks I found a link: 100 best first lines from novels
I was pleased to see that the first on the list was the line from my favourite novel - Moby Dick by Hermann Melville: "Call me Ishmael". And "Mrs. Dalloway said she would buy the flowers herself" from Mrs. Dalloway by Virginia Woolf is also on the list.
Don't know why but this fact makes me smile.

Three days till my vacation! God, I really need it with all this working extra shifts during previous two weeks.
Having not much spare money I thought I'd have to spend my vacation at home, but thankfully we'll have a little family trip. We are going to my father's aunt birthday. And on the way to her town (which is 310 miles away from us) we'll visit another town (where I would be able to visit several writers' museums) and the country estate of one of my most favourite Russian writers. And of course sightseeing in Svetlana's hometown. It is my favourite kind of vacation - seeing new places and going to museums :)

In the meantime today is the day of the premier of the last Harry Potter movie in our country. I will go to see it tomorrow with 1100 fellow fans from our HP fandom. I can't believe it will be our last premier together. Watching movies together, hundreds of people every time, was one of the best things in the fandom for me.

I've finally moved to our house in the country. I'm just not physically capable of living in the city (and in my case it is the very center of the city) in summer. Fresh air and less heat definitely make up for having to wake up 1,5 hours earlier than usual. In fact, it's not a big deal - it means that I have to wake up at 7:30 a.m. instead of 9 a.m. (yep, the perks of working near home *gg*)

So here it is - my home for the next 3-4 months:

My best friend is now happily married emboding my dream of finaly having somebody to trust her to :-) I really like her husband and the feelings are mutual.

Speaking about my love life we had a serious talk with Stan (although it was more him talking and me being in a bit of a stupor after all the champagne I'd drunk during the wedding) about our relationship. We decided to stick with friends without benefits *gg* Gosh, it's such a relief! I was going a bit crazy thinking about ways to end our relationship somehow or direct it towards just simple friendship. Turns out Stan was on the same path )) In fact it's a natural progression of things - we were always more friends than anything other. And now I even like Stan way better ))))
By the way his sister is finishing high school, so he's gone to his hometown which once again leaves me with his tutoring and the flowers I've planted at his apartment which need watering. Yeah, I'm great at being friends ;-) (I've always known that I'm way better at friendship than at any other kind of relationships) Stan was right saying "It's difficult to be anything other than friends with you, because for you friends are always coming first"
