I am trying to download the subbed performance or Rolling Coaster that Kanjani 8 did on SCP and it just doesn´t want to cooperate. Ugh. I had the raw and really you don´t need subs with songs, but I lost both links and a file somehow and now ... oh well let´s keep trying.

I´ve signed up for [livejournal.com profile] jentfic_remix. I wonder, I wonder ...

Speaking of challenges, the one I am running with Gwynn is nearing its second stage. [livejournal.com profile] fic_the_faith sign ups close with the end of the old year and I shall be sending the assignments out on 5th of January (evening CET time of that day as I see it - for those who are anxious to receive it XD)

Today I have loads of meme "obligations". First of all, [livejournal.com profile] imifumei asked me 5 questions, that I am now about to answer.

1.What is one modern convenience you think the world would be better without?
2. If you could tell your parents (or just mom or just dad, I am not sure I know your family situation) how you feel about them in 25 words or fewer, what would you say?
3. You have €100 in your pocket and a train ticket to anywhere within 500 km. Where do you go and what do you do?
4. What holiday do you most like to celebrate and why?
5. You can give the gift of feeling truly loved for one day but for every person you give it to, there is someone who feels truly alone for one day. How do you wield your power?


1. I am not sure really. I am a person who thinks progress is inevitable and I use the new inventions of human race freely. Let´s be honest, as with everything, these too have their pros and cons and I hardly ever see the world black and white enough to determine an answer to a question you are asking me. The only thing that comes to my mind right now is Bologna system, but that doesn´t really fit into a scope of modern convenience definition.

2. My family situation: my parents are married for almost 25 years now, I am putting it down because I kind of realized how long they´ve been together when you mentioned not knowing this info about me:

“I really really love you, but I am not perfect and neither are you, not even you mom. Please look at each other more closely.”

3. I would either go to Liberec to finally see [livejournal.com profile] moon_kaka. I would take her to a good lunch and a movie, we´d have a nice cake and a good coffee and we would flail about Johnny´s for the rest of the time. This is the low budget plan, so I might stop in Prague on my way back to finally see my friend since we keep missing each other´s home stay.

Or since it´s winter skiing season, I would take off and go skiing to somewhere in Slovenia for a weekend. I hear it is amazing there and I haven´t gone and tried their mountains yet. Frankly I have seen loads of stuff in the 500 km range. The things that came to my mind are further and I am not in a mood for Krakow or Budapest and sightseeing in general right now from the “available range and my “to see list”.

4. I like the Labor Day and Day “of the victory over fascism” duo. They are celebrated on May 1st and 8th here. Both of them are national holidays and it´s the beginning of May, spring is in full swing and we don´t really really do anything special for those days.
Which is exactly why I like them. Because with Christmas, Easter and so on, my mom would cook and clean and be in stress and this certain mood is pushed on to you. With those two, usually we would just go for a trip somewhere when I was smaller and my parents still try to get out of the town where we live during this time. It´s great when they fall on Mondays or Fridays, then you have two prolonged weekends one after another. And if I am in Brno, then I have a free day, no school, no work and plenty of time to go check spring in the town, to have the last breather before my exams start … and I think that May 8th is really needed so that people remember War and maybe realize they should value Peace. They tend to forget in everyday life.

5. It would stay unused. Feeling truly loved is a great concept, but then feeling truly lonely is equally scary one. Only a person itself should be able to decide/to influence how close to the concept of both those emotions he/she gets. As I said, world is never black and white only and it never should be. Would you value the feeling of being truly loved if you didn´t know the pain of loneliness? If you forgot it? I have no right to make someone feel the loneliness just for the sake of making someone feel loved. Am I being clear? All in all, I just wouldn´t use it, even if it makes me look like a weak person with no backbone. I think resisting the temptation of such a power would be the biggest achievement and I know it would be pretty damn hard. I can try and send my love to people I want to feel loved every day.



Secondly, I have also started the love and adoration meme, and so in the next few days I will be telling people who asked for it how much I adore them and why. And since I am answering Brina´s questions, I can as well love on her in the same post.

♥ Her posts make me smiley. I love how her and Amy complement each other in providing me with taste buds stimulations and drama recommendations and snippets from their lives in that very special way.
[livejournal.com profile] jerainbowbridge that Brina and Amy moderated this year was my first writing exchange. They welcomed me with open arms. It was great, and Brina´s icons, special for each story, were such a nice and thoughtful touch! It shows how much she cares and I admire her for it.
♥ Brina plays with language in a way that is admirable; I always learn something new when she starts doing her magic! Her “language and grammar timez” as I call it make me want to improve every time I read them.
♥ In relation to the above, she tolerates my grammar fail ♥
♥ Me and Brina might share some serious love for Arashi, Jun included. Neither of us explores it publicly, at least not very often, but it´s there and it makes me feel all warm and fuzzy.
♥ I love her Pi tag!!! I was drawn to her because of it even when we weren´t friends yet. Because really if Czechs would shake their “booteyz” for someone, it would be Yamapi.

1. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bologna_process
My answer here was totally influenced by me being in my last year of uni. The idea might be great, but hmmm ... scroll down to criticism and I am right there with the academic aspects of it. Even though I study law.
Basically Legal study was always built here to be 5 years of study program after which you are "Magister" - it was straight forward Master degree. It still is in eyes of local (meaning Charles university in Prague, or Masaryk uni in Brno or all the others ..) universities so you can go and do PhD in Czech republic or Slovakia when you finish it.
But in the eyes of many other EU universities, I have only one degree and thus am equal to Bachelor.

Law as it is studied here requires 5 years. Czech universities still refuse to split it into Bachelor and Master studies (though they adopted ECTS credit system, and thus after 3 years I had to have 180 of them, after 5 years I will have to have around 300 of them), because a lawyer "bachelor" can do nothing. It means he/she knows only about half of what he/she should and all the legal professions are regulated by state and law requires a "Master" degree for them.

Splitting the studies after the third year is useless and unnatural and unpractical. And I got lengthy because this really kind of makes me mad ... Basically in the eyes of many universities, Bologna system degraded my degree because it disrespects the legal training and education as it is set in my country (which ever of two that is).
And as I said this is not really convenience XD by definition.

As for the rest.
2. I am not sure they would take it as earnest and not offensive. Not in my family, it would come out as rude and it would be considered ungrateful and disrespectful and I don´t want to go into details XD But lol me and Yamapi comparison XDDDDD
3. I do ski, I love to do it and I go whenever school and money allow me. This season I have Italy in store and I really really hope it will turn out better than last year. I got sick after 2 days of skiing and had high fever and only stayed in our hotel. I am also planning a weekend somewhere here in Slovakia, let´s hope for some decent snow ...
4. you are welcome XD
5. I am glad we agree ♥

I do it for anyone who commented on that post and you totally deserve my love .... I am sending you big hug back, it should arrive sometimes around New Year ;D
