Friday Once Again

Thank goodness it's Friday. I am looking forward to another relaxing weekend filled with sleep and rest. The weather is mellowing out, so I'm hoping to light some candles, maybe even burn some wood in my fireplace type thing and read the book I brought with me. My week was pretty run of the mill, with work and coffee and some rain showers. The week seems to have flown by though, and feels as if it were just Monday morning and yet it is Friday afternoon. And so September has run out, like sand in an hour glass...I always think hourglasses a bit paradoxal, as it looks like the sand will run out quickly from the speed of it falling and yet it takes however long it is supposed to take for the last grain of sand to fall. This is what September feels like. Like it flew by and did not fly by at the same time... Maybe I'm being too thoughtful today? I did not have a lot to do in the way of work today, so maybe I'm looking for a mind challenge :)

That's a little hedgehog that Rasa saw near the dorm and was able to snap a photo or two of...so cute! I haven't seen one yet, but now I'm going to keep my eyes peeled for the little guys.

I must start eating breakfast, as I get hungry so early in the day and with three basic choices for lunch (Michaelsen cafeteria, IKI the grocery store and a small cafe near the school) the lunches I do end up having are far from inspiring. I get the same thing at the cafe near school if I go (chicken cutlet) and always end up buying one of a handful of combinations of food from the grocery store (peach yogurt drink, a pastry and maybe some cheese) and Michaelsen cafeteria is only okay...Also, I thought the milk tasted like string cheese when I first had it here last year, and again this year upon initial drinkage, but now I LIKE IT. And this sour milk 'kefyras' is growing on me as well. I never thought I'd actually grow to like either thing, and lo and behold - I do. Oh Lithuania, the strange things you make me like :)

Anyway, I'll try to be a more interesting person so I have more things to report, but for now life is life is life!
