Healthy Food
Today, at the store I met one older lady next to diary products. She told me to better not drink milk, especially cows or goat milk. Her point was that it include too much proteins that are responsible to for clots or heart diseases. And it is better to drink soy milk for example. She told me about the book "The China Study" and advised me to read it and really take some pieces of advice because it is worth. We have just one life and it is such a shame how people kill themselves by unhealthy eating styles. I don't know if i should believe in all what she said but I know it for sure that my next boo will be "The China Study" just because I'm interested into this topic and want to know more about my food and my health.

John Bon Jovi Rocks
So what a weekend I had :) general I'm very tired but very happy as well. Friday night I wanted to study as much as I could but of course gathering with my roommates in the kitchen was more important, so I study just for two hours ( I wanted much more!!! ) Then, Saturday was busy from the morning until very very very late night. I went for a walk with my girl friend and her little son on the Cove Beach in Stamford. It was nice but short and I felt that I should study instead having a little fun. But I think that clear and refresh my mind was important too. I knew I can't stay too long because I have to study a little because I had plan for the rest of the day. Around two o'clock I hit the road and went with my other friend to MA, to see John Bon Jovi concert. We went earlier to not be stuck in the traffic but still the bad weather and car accidents stopped us many many many times. But any way we got there just on the time and had a lot of fun, smiles, laughs, and great rock music. First was Kid Rock, he sang and played for over one hour and then Bon Jovi. He is great, he knows how to rock people and make them sing and have wonderful fun. I came back to home at 2;30 am very tired that I can feel until now but with great memories that will stay with my for ever. :)

Being Stressed Out
There are so many thing in my life that are lately stressful for me. There is school where I think most of the people try to be the best ( let's face the face the truth - just very good ), then work where you can just sit and relax ( work is work ) and then just personal life and issues that are every single day. First, school, in my opinion if you don't school is easier and all is easier but if you care and want to do well or at least not poorly then you do all you homework, study and all is about the time and get it done well. If you don't care it simply. All is simply. I care and trying my best to be responsible in all what I do. Work - another thing or place that might be stressful ( in my case sometimes yes, sometimes no ). But any way, you have to be there and if you are responsible you want to do is well and then it might suck all you energy that you don't have it for, for example, homework. Then personal life - hmmm there you go :) there could be a lot going on or nothing. Or you might thing about something or want something but it might never happen. I know it is too general but I don't want to go too deep because I just have 20 minutes that are actually over. So, the big circle closes :)

Rain and Storm
There is Monday morning and right now there is a poring rain and storm outside. I don't remember when that last time I saw the big storm in the morning. Not that it can't happen in the morning but when I was a child, I remember that storms happen more often and no matter what time. I didn't like rain then. It always crossed our kids plans; for example, sleeping under the tent or play out side. Now, when I'm adult I like rain and I have to say that sometimes I'm just waiting on it. I had to stop typing my blog and I came back after a big long storm in the morning. Now, there is after 8pm and two other storms were very close to my town but I think they made a slight turn and came just close to me. Too bad, I like big storms, thunders and lightnings, I think it is very fascinating and cool. It has such a magical and killing power and people are not able to stop it. Some people, I don't know how to call them, chaise storms and make beautiful pictures and interesting movies and documents. For me it is just magical and very very very fascinating.

School...
So, the summer class very soon will be over, I have to tell honesty that I'm glad. School in the summer time isn't a wonderful, brilliant idea;maybe if you have extra plan for the future ( not me ). And then one month of vacation from school of course, lol I think I finally will be able to read some books that I want to read for fun and pleasure. Watch some movies that I wanted in the past a couple of months and never have time for it and simple relax, watch stupid no educated TV shows or sit comes and have some different kind of fun. I think when I finish summer class I will go out and have a lot of fun, dance and drinks :) I think I deserve it , lol Then just work work and work and then some time with my family and then work work work and then fall semester, hmm bummer lol The big dilemma about classes times twelve credits etc. It is going to more and more difficult, I think. I have to do some paper to be sure what to do here ( in the U.S ) I have to transfer my credits from my university and have been doing it for a couple of months already I haven't started yet, bummer, another! lol I really have to do to have better knowledge what class could I take and what I could skip. These decisions are sometime so difficult especially if you are by yourself.
Old Times
Kind of funny, I'm still very young and I want to talk about "old times", lol "When I was young and beautiful..." lol no, no I'm still young and I hope the whole life is a front of me :) But what I'm trying to say by old times is a time with my friends long time or not long time ago. Our lives have been changing; there are new marriages, relationships, divorces, babies etc. and life isn't the same. We don't have time to hang out or go out together. Now, there are jobs x 10 ( especially in this economy I would think ) , more new big responsibilities, careers, diapers. And when from time to time, we are able to get together or simply talk on the phone ( that we used to - hours every day ) I feel that a good, old times come back. Today, I was talking with my best friend for over two hours; it was every unusual since she has a baby and when we were on the phone I said that I feel that old time is come back. However, I know that is life and that are the changes that are supposed to be and actually we are waiting on them ( not maybe divorce ) but it can happen in life as well. So, my point today is that we should enjoy each minute with our loves and be happy for moments that we have because some day we could miss it.

Human - inhumane
Humans always want to be treated as human. They fight for their rights and when something goes wrong they are able to protest and they have their vote. Animals don't have these rights and often they are abuse. Humans treat them inhumane. What a paradox. Often, especially in my country I heard "that's just a dog or animal" but animals can feel and understand what is going on. I won't be afraid the animals could be a better friend than a human. It happen to me many times that a person ( even someone close to me ) didn't notice that I was down but my dogs or dogs that I know knew it. That is so interesting and worth at least my attention. I'm a animal lover by the way. I will always stand by their rights. People can talk and usually find the way to protect itself or say something in the defense. Animal can't talk; isn't able to do something; therefore, they need us people to treat them the way like we want to be treated. I believe in karma. If you do something bad or take advantages of something or someone, it will come back. What goes around, comes around!

Can't Wait August
Time goes fast any way at least for me but I can't wait August. The fist reason is that my mother and my second sister son are coming over and the second, the summer class will be over, lol There's like no vacation, just one month. Summer is the only time to rest and be out of school but this year and I think the last time I'm taking the summer school. A couple of people that I talked to said the same. They took summer class just ones. But any way, besides school as I said first my mother is coming over for three weeks of vacation. They are coming to my sister's house and I'm taking one week of vacation as well and we are going to spent this week together. I can't wait! I didn't see my mother for one year and a half. It is a long and short time. Any way I'm exited. My sister is a great planner, she loves to plan anything and for everyone. So. we are supposed to go to the Ocean City, just for one day. And Six flag but just Safari and Water Park. Personally, I'm not a big fan of rides so even better. That are the biggest attractions while I'll be there. I don't know what else they are planning to do but there is a lot to do in my sister area. So, I'm looking forward to see my lovely family :)
Cold in the Summer?
Cold in the summer? Yes, it happens and it happened to me. Last Wednesday, I got really hot being outside and after that I got an idea to jump into the swimming pool. Actually, I didn't really jump; I just went into. However, I think that is the reason of my being sick now. Thursday I started to feel not so good. I remember that I got cold in school, and when my feet get cold I'm done, lol Friday - was horrible. I didn't have desire to get up at all but I needed to walk dogs in the early morning, I got up. During the day was better but always ( in my case at least ) I feel worse in the night time. And being sick during very hot days, isn't fun at all. You are getting sweat quicker, tired - faster, everyone and everything - bothers, terrible! But I decided to go out in Friday night and it wasn't a good idea because when I got back home and it wasn't that late ( 10:30pm ) I feet that my body falls apart. Just the bed and longer sleep could help me, think! I didn't! lol There is Sunday and I'm still sick. Saturday - friend's wedding - I'm sick. I went but I didn't feel good. Today, at the pharmacy lady asked me if I'm OK? the funniest things this weekend, lol I know I don't look good but apparently, I look very bad ( tired, sick ) that strangers asks about my health, lol

Shopping
I went on the small shopping today. I used to shop much more, now I can't afford it any more. I have to save money for school and now school costs me much more than a couples year ago. Also, now I have been living by myself ( I mean with roommates ) but any way I have to pay all my bills. Sometimes, it isn't easy. I really have to think on what I'm spending my money and be wise. It is so easy spend money, often that you earn so hard, and especially nowadays, when the economy isn't good, it is hard to make a good money. So, during my shopping today, I had one thought how often people go shopping for clothes. Because I often see women who care huge carts with clothes or big bags already. And another question do they need so many clothes? I'm no saying the I don't like shopping, I do but sometime I'm asking myself do I really it? and then I realized that I don't. There are so many poor people who don't have even a dry bread ( like people in Poland would say ) and here I see so often the wealthiness. Such a shame for the world... Just a small thought for tonight.
Nothing
I have nothing to say today, I spoke with the my best friend this morning, she has a small baby and there is a lot to talk about. It is so interesting how baby develops and changes each day. Their baby boy is five weeks old, and grows great. To have a child is a very responsible thing. I know this however, when I see this daily I know, I can this responsibility and then I think about myself and me being a future mother. Yesterday, I heard about one family that have eight children and the oldest one is twelve years old. When I heard it, I was a little shocked but also, I know these people are able to afford to have this big number of children. However, I think if mommy has that many children is she able to give enough attention to each baby. I'm not sure about it. But on the other hand, it is good that people have children. I thinking about abortion topic. There are many points of view on this topic.
Wedding Season
I think the wedding season starts in the spring and ends up in the late fall; however, people get married all year long :) Funny, a friend of mind told me that two years ago she was going on the wedding almost every month, especially in the wedding season, now she is going on baby showers, lol That's result of weddings. :) I think, it sounds funny :) Wedding here, wedding there and in the two to five years we might meet in the court. Divorce! If think that people who are divorced don't see the institution of marriage as a something wonderful. Most likely people don't get remarried, how troubles to trust someone, to be find the right person, to be committed again, etc. If you see that something fails often, you don't want to step into again and again. Then you pick easier way to just be with someone but without big commitments, and without simply a one paper that says that you are married. I think there are many school, and each person has its own point to view, but we can't lost the hope and desire for the better, more colorful future, we can't stop dreaming and reaching the happiness. I think, I found my happiness once again and this time, I won't let it go or failed :) at least I hope :)

Long Weekend
The long weekend is almost gone. There was a very nice time. I spend most of the time with my boyfriend who lives kind of far away and we don't have chance to see that often. So, it was nice. We were invited on party, very nice, besides towing a car and ticket for parking, lol oh well, now I'm laughing but I didn't at that time. I spend most of the free ( kind of this weekend ) time next to the swimming pool. The weather is gorges, I think like 96F, and I just so the forecast for tomorrow 98F wow, I think I can boil eggs on the roof of my car lol Good time always goes fast, and it was this weekend. Lots of laughs, smiles, good time, some beers,, sun, swimming pool, dance ( I went on my friend's birthday on Friday and then we went out to dance ) Actually, when the last time I danced that much, we had blessed on Friday night. But my legs still hurt me, and today is Monday night. It means that I don't dance too often and it is shame, because it is a lot of fun, and exercise for the whole body. There was many people from middle or south of America, and we danced salsa or other Spanish dances. In my opinion, Spanish people know how to have a good time, fun and they are great dancers and sing well. I like to hang out with my Spanish friends, they are great people and great friends :)

After tests...
Boy! today was the midterm test, what a "horse" that is the name that people from Poland is something is difficult or just not so easy to go through. I wrote this words the night after the midterm, Today is July 8th, and I know already a grade. :) So, it wasn't that difficult for me how it looks for the beginning. I think when your mind is full of information and U want to really good and take it really serious, and put even too much pressure sometimes on yourself then you think that you do poorly and all is wrong. When I have essay ( not easy - when I'm not able to make it less than 2-3 hours ) then I'm sitting on my desk and think "If I didn't care, how easier it could be be, how much life could be easier... " And if you care and want to do well, otherwise no reason to do it, then life sometimes becomes more tough. Sometimes I should take school lighter because I got my degree already, I'm not without any good education; however, if I'm planning to stay in the U.S. I have to get some good education here with finish it up with a good degree. So, any way many years of studies a front of me.... I have been going to school, no matter what kind of school, including preschool, where you learn how to read, for 21 years already, with one year break when I was in Poland two years ago. 21 it is a big number already! How many a front? Even I don't know yet lol :)

The world is crying...
Almost everyday, we hear that something really bad is happening, I mean so many bad people are around us, serious killers, bombs, air plane crashed, terror somewhere, closer or farer us, tornadoes, big storms, tsunami, volcanoes etc. all the kind of catastrophes. My grandmother or my mom would say - God is mad on people and the world is walking into the end, unfortunately, it won' be a happy ending for us, people. We can ask ourselves what happened with the world? Why people hate others? Was it before as well or nowadays because there is so much poverty and violence. Or maybe it happened before ( meaning long long years ago ) but people didn't talk about so much, they were holding to themselves, or maybe there was no TV or any other kind of the mass media and simply people didn't hear about it. Any way, my thoughts are that it si terrible that human is a "wolf" to another human. People don't want to help each other, and are happy when something bad happens to the neighbor for example. At least I see it from time to time in my society. It makes me feel afraid about the future because it means that will be just worse and worse. I'm not so optimistic for wonderful, colorful future if people are so mean , maybe it is too general or too strong, but it is something that I observed lately. For me, it is really sad.
Again, I'm going to talk about anything and nothing, that are my blogs, lol I didn't sleep too well last night, the time it says about it, there is 6:14am. During the week time, I sleep by myself; however, on the weekends, there are two dogs added to the bed. And not every time they give me to sleep. Usually, they don't, then I'm pushed somewhere on the edge of the bed, sometime without blanket lol They love to sleep in the middle of the bed and every close to me, that is why they push me away. I'm not mad or upset of it, usually I laugh of it because that are just lovely doggies who want to be treated the same like people. Those two special, friendly, smart and cute cocer spaniels are very special for me. Interesting thing is that dogs or simply animals most of the time understand you what you are talking to them. I heard that average dog understand around five hundred words. It is very impressive, I will tell. Sometime I think that animals are smarter and more sensitive than people. However, I notice that, for example dogs are jealous like kids. If you give attention to one of them, the other want the same as well. I find it very interesting. :) Bark bark

Happy Friday
Happy Friday is gone, there is 12:04am so it means Saturday; however, my Friday was pleasant. I wake up pretty early 7am and as unusual was felt great. I got a good night sleep and wanted to start my weekend as soon as possible, lol However, it isn't so easy because I have to survive the whole day begin my weekend that I wait ans miss so much since Monday, funny huh? but I think that most of people have it ( if they don't have to work on weekend-as my sister does). The day went not so bad. The weather was better than on Thursday, where the humid bothered me a lot. Today, I mean yesterday, Friday was a nice breezy, still very warm but more pleasant. But on the other hand, what I'm trying to say why the Friday was so happy because I planned to buy a bike! Yes, yes I bought a bike! Nothing special, but mine. I got it in the most popular retail in the U.S. lol The price was reasonable, bike looks nice, good brand, I think. That was all what I wanted. And the best thing is that I didn't have to pay the whole price - Gift Certificate :) Big thanks to the people who gave me it :) I think that is all, a little weather, a little new from my life :) Now, I think it is a night night time :) At least for me, so, good night :)

Baby Daniel
Today, I went to see my best girl friend and her newborn baby, Daniel. He is cute, sweet and cries a lot, lol Babies are lovely; I think that are like small miraculous :)
There is no baby and then there is one :) or even more than one, lol When I came over, my friend was feeding him, and after Daniel's dinner time, he was supposed to sleep; suppose to His eyes were wide open and he didn't want to sleep. Then, he starts to cry and his mom wasn't even able to eat her dinner, that I brought for us. I cared him and walk around but apparently, aunt wasn't that helpful and he was still crying. I rocked him, try to sing maybe that was the reason of his cry lol Finally, his mom took him and started to rock him pretty hard and you know what - Daniel loved it! Kind of funny, I said that babied like to be rocked hard. Adult person would like it at all, lol and surprisingly kids love it! Daniel is two weeks old now and already knows what is good for him and he has his favorite positions and kind of rocking him :) General, all positive :)

Father's Day
Today is Father's Day in the U.S. June 20th. My father lives in Poland, so I won't be able to wish him Happy Father's Day today. However, I celebrate this day any way. There is one dad ( a friend of mine ) with whom we celebrated the Father's Day. Nothing really special but very nice. We had lunch together. Food from the grill ( hot-dogs, hamburgers, and sausages ) I picked sausage, lately I can't eat hot-dogs or hamburgers. I have never been a big fan of this kind of food. However, after watch one movie "Super size me " - I can't eat fast foods, or when I do it, it isn't so often. I used to eat from time to time some meals from Mc , now what I eat from that place is ice-cream, shakes or french-fries but just sometimes. No meat meals from that place, for sure. Ones I had salad; it was awful. I heard that the dressing has a lot of calories and even if you think a salad, supposedly a healthy meal; you put inside your body a lot of calories. So, in this easy way I came from the Father's Day topic to food. Food lately is one of the topics of my friends and mine conversations; I don't mean just school and its topic of eating style. I think that people really watch what they eat. Some are lucky and some not so much. As far, I'm.

Summer
We almost have a summer, it is here on the corner lol I love summer, it's my favorite time of the year. I love when is warm and sunny outside. I don't like humidity; like it is in the U.S. However, I can survive, so any way I enjoy the summer time. I like to do some outside activities. There is nothing special ( walks, jogging, beach etc ) but any way there is sun and pleasant outside and then my soul want to be happy and dance and smile and laugh. The whole world looks better, prettier, happier , more colorful. Why do people fall in love in the spring or the summer? because the world looks more beautiful and people see the world in more different, happier colors. Why are there rainbows just in the summer and spring time? Silly, maybe because rainbows like spring and summer as well. lol Or maybe the rainbow looks better next to smiling people? That are some of my silly and funny thoughts about the summer time and spring as well. However, being more serious summer is the most favorite time of the year.e spring I wait for than summer for the rest of the year. So, the only words that are should be said are: Enjoy your summer :)

Hmmm....
Do you have feelings sometime that all what you do lose a sense? and then whole your life has gray colors. People who are around you and you know that they love you are neutral for you, meaning that you stop care. I have this feeling today. I don't exactly why but since Friday afternoon, I feel a little down. I think, I expect too much of myself and maybe people who are around. Lately, there is so many happy events in my life. My best girl friend gave a birth to her son. Other friends have a new baby in their family. Other friends got engaged. I think, sometimes we are just "a little jealous" and we would like to have then different life. People are created that way that they like to be with other people. And I'm not different. At some point of life, we would like to be with someone and be sure that this is that person and share life with this person, build family, and simply be together. That are my thoughts after this weekend. Please, don't miss understand me that I'm jealous of my friends and their happiness. I just would love to find my happiness and enjoy it everyday, not just weekend or from time to time. We miss some people more than other, especially whose who mean the world for us.

Animals are Everywhere
So, today is Saturday. Saturday, the day when I do my homework. Yeah! lol So, I wake up before 8am because my boyfriend dogs didn't let me sleep longer. However, that was good because I had a couple errands to do. We, I mean dogs Layla( female ) and Nomar ( male ), both cute and friendly cocker spaniles had appointment at the grooming at 9am. I didn't have appointment, just dogs, lol. I had my own appointment at the nail spa. I went to do my nails and dogs went to do their nails and hair. After nail spa, I came back home to do some homework. It isn't easy, there is a lot to do; including my blog :) In the early afternoon, I went pick up dogs. However, I knew that it won't be on time, as usual. So, I went to shopping. It was just a grocery shopping, not really fun fun. In my opinion, food is expensive in the U.S. I think, it is all over the world. Some people say that food in the U.S. isn't that expensive. Maybe to compere to other counties and their pay checks then food isn't that expensive here. I think, that fruits and vegetables because I buy them the most aren't cheap and they should be cheaper. So, I picked up dogs. Meanwhile, when I was waiting for dogs, I walked around the store and look at other animals there. There were cute cats, young kitties and older cats. People could adopt them. Actually, there a long line of people waiting to adopt cats. This put smile on my face.

My Passion
What does the passion is? Is it something that brings us pleasure and enjoyment. I believe that everyone has some passions. It could be a passion to sport, books, movies, dance, singing, food, animals or another person. I like animals, especially, dogs and cats. Some people are afraid of some dogs or cats, I'm not at all. I believe that to each animal we should have a special treatment. Very often, when for example a good is treated in bad, abusive way then the dog could be vicious or mean. Personally, when I see a dog or cat, I love this particular animal right away. Maybe, it sounds silly but then I would love to take this dog or cat to my home. My siblings used to call my cats mommy because I love cats and I think animals feel it and they become friendly to me as well. Since over one year I have been a dog walker. I do it everyday and I love it. I love to take care of animals in general. Therefore, I would like to be at least vet technician. My dream is to stay a veterinarian but it could impossible. I'm not saying that it isn't impossible but I mean that could be tough or there could different obstacles - like money. However, I believe that vet tech is possible and I could do it. I love animals and I would love to know about them even more and be helpful for them.
