I´ve just spent too much time cutting two songs short. Gha. I also went for a massage today. My back is very happy with me. And I ironed, made name tags for 61 people (my sis has great skills with scissors) and . . . yeah those two songs were pain.
I might have an interview in over a week. Ironically enough, it´s a Slovak Law firm. Ehm Slovak law? really. I mean REALLY! (yes, it was me who applied and said something about being able to perform equally well in Slovak legal system in my motivation letter.)
I applied for a job in Brno that would be kind of interesting and almost entirely in French. Please, please, interview. After I applied, I found out (kind of by chance) the selection process is run by a person who I met when translating for "my Americans" a year ago. He gave me his business card, in case "he can be of some help" back then. He saw me perform (translating a lecture and following discussion between my Americans and a Supreme court judge from English to Czech and vice versa for almost 3 hours.) The thing is, someone would probably write to him now, reminding oneself in some way but I can´t do these things. Be like, hey I´m applying for this job, do you remember me? I cringe when thinking about it and don´t know how to do it. It sucks. If they call me for an interview, that would be good, I could (in a way) work it there.
My friend also send me a job opening add with ICC. It´s kind of something I REALLY REALLY want to do. IN PARIS! FOR ARBITRATION COURT! UGH! If someone has tips for writing awesome covering letters that will blow people´s minds, let me know. Also a serious question. When you apply by an email and you are asked for covering letter, do you attach it in a separate attachment or do you write it into the body of an email?
That got long.
I was lazy to post pictures yesterday, but here be a process of prettying up and finishing our sweets and cakes.




yes, a cake for a fifty years old man is pink. we are cool like that.




there were two loads of these and I dipped the second one, I had my fingers and hand dripping with chocolate.

I´m not showing you the cakes and sweets that we did not bake (some of them will arrive only with the guests) but the amount is crazy. I still wonder what will be left. The sugar overload will be insane. I´m a driver tomorrow though, so no alcohol past the cheers at the beginning for me. Dealing with my family completely sober. With 60 pieces of them. And folk music. Let´s pretend I can do this. In high heels and with class.

Working in Paris sounds awesome. D:
The pink cake is awesome, too.
I'd be uber-happy to have one like that.
And I hate pink, you know.
And all the sweets look amazing~
I hope you really managed to survive it... Because it sounds inhumane. XD
And next time you need to edit some music, just let me know (if you're not in a hurry and can wait for a few days until I find it in my mail), I've got some pro software for editing sounds /mastering music - that I am also able to operate. xD

lol lol Pink cake tastes super good, which is why we make it and what is the most important I think.

I did survive, my feet and brain . . . are ruling on that at the moment.
I had no time frankly and I needed it to fit time of picture slide show, well it´s done now so . . .
