The OC who needs that ? When reel life meets real life.

The O.C probably the most famous of american soap operas that one has ever seen. Seeing it run and seeing how the plot kept on changing one could only say "ohh man thats screwed up and that can only happen in reel life". That was my very belief until the point i realized reel life can sometimes be real life. The sad thing about reel life being like real life is that you dont have a script, you dont know when the next thing happens or for that matter a bad thing might happen. Yes reel in real life is scary very scary. When reel life collides with real life then you think of lines like  "Its  hard to keep an open heart when even friends seem to harm you " . If i could possibly well summarize the fall semester one could easily fit into the song November rain for a short trailer. I dont quite remember who said " The world is a big stage and we are all actors in it " , whoever said was not high on anything he had tonnes of experience of life. Yes I would like to be an actor in the stage but yes please i want a script. I want a script to know what will happen next ? Will it be good or bad. Unfortunately as mortals we are not provided with luxury unless or until you are Nathaniel (the self proclaimed Jesus). That was just a joke! 
Who knew that being a mentor or meeting new people would lead to one of the worst crises i would have ever faced in my life. Who knew that it would lead to me breaking down completely and crying till my tears run dry. I thought it was always cool to have a cool temperament no matter what the situation is. It is time and time again tested. I had got a lot of rejections before i made it to here. and boy I remember I was under a tremendous pressure and not to mention the people who were interested in what I did , rather than minding their own business. I believe to live a life where I dont care what others think about . I can very well cite an example of volleyball , well I was not only one of the worst players and also one of the shortest to make things worst , but as time passed by I improved and now not only I have well defined role as a libero but occasionally I block as well and that is Ironic. 
I believe I invite disaster to myself and that being making friends with random people, inviting them for BBQ , movies , coffee , lunches to talk. I am one of the few guys who talk to the cafeteria lady in study center & have coffee with the Janitor of the school. Well that is me , its just in me & unfortunately I have no control over it. 
So could I have avoided me crying till my tears run dry ? Being sad and miserable. Yes I could have with a lot of What ifs ?? So what if  I didnt go the very first volleyball outing at Ines? What if I didnt meet Tobias & Johan for World cup Matches? What if I didnt tell Kamil about the Eva? What if I had not invited Nathaniel for dinner when the only connection was a common friend ? What if I had not asked Eva to go for brunch ? What if i didnt have asked Piotr to join for Tea after.volleyball? What if I never kind of forced Secil and Merve to play with us ? What if I stop becoming myself.? 
If I would have done the "what Ifs" I would just say , There would have been no SSKK (this I am not proud of, it was direct consequence of my troubles, there would have been no Drinking Wednesday, there would not have been any Karaoke, there would have been no Team Joy. There would have been no Elsas "come" or Marinas wicked thoughts , there would have been no team HAndle Shovel and there would have been my best friend " the crutches"  , or for that matter that dreaded "shrink chair" .
There would be no those famous videos from Joy Productions eva, hakuna matata , Angels , Dancing Flore etc , all these would have never been there. I personally feel proud of Evas video because it was my idea as all start up ideas come from me. I would have never known Eva , Kamil Nathaniel as I know them now  and its funny that we complement each other some how like each one having each others back though I would not prefer Evas cause of obvious reasons of her wieght. I feel these adverse situation made me even more closer to my basta dum kompisar Maddie. During these times I would be really happy with a simple "yess praddyyy " from flore which really lit up my day.  These testing times again reignited the feeling of hate which was lying dormant and yes yes it has made me make some epic playlists in Spotify! 
Have I learned from my so called mistakes , perhaps not because i still keep calling in people inviting them to lunch , coffee etc and ironic its still germans !!! I am meeting new people in the form Nima , Sophia  Luca who all are different in their own very way. 
"One who keeps making the same mistakes is a fool " says some old wise guy, & then I guess I still have to be the "fool" , These so called tough times have also made a lot of people happy , I have seen smiles, I have seen excitements . And then again "No pain no gain"  so I guess i will keep making mistakes and be a "fool" for the sake of humanity. Ha ha ha a very lame joke ! A lame joke is quite good days because the other ones have come true. 
Tommorow is a kind of day off because I got my simulations working. Yeah ordinary guy but i feel just a bit happy when some time things go right and its not Ironic & I guess I am entitled to a little bit of happiness , even if its just a bit ! 
For the time after summer , oh boy its a start of new season with new characters and maybe character called "Prady" wont even be there for coming season ! Who knows! One cant expect , expectations are bad , adaptivity is the key for survival . 

P.S Dear God ! I could really do with a script. Though right now , I am more ready for the unexpected than the expected! 





Dear God - It refers to the real deal , not the one carrying a broken mug and drinking alcohol!

The Curious Case of Nathaniel Bérubé-Mimeault






So the day is coming closer when we bid farewell to one of the most interesting personality in the last past year. He gained reputation as one of the hard core drinkers the illusion though however was broken for a short time in Budapest. A modern day messiah and one of the founding members of the Team Joy and also one of the starting figure heads of the La Revoluzion of Genesism. Yesterday Sperling asked "Prady I havent read anything much from your blog " and funny thing is that she never asks she orders so here is something to fulfill her desire.

It is kind of recap something for the past year in one single blog and with the French Canadian its even more difficult. I kind of met him through another friend Serena. Initially FC as i remember was homeless as its very common here.  The first meeting was in a dinner where i invited him with Serena, its one of my very wierd habits that i just invite random people but nonetheless i take it as a good habit. FC had a very heavy dose of french accent in his English and the first time I just said "yes" to everything he said and occasionally i put a "no" just to make him feel I was really following him. I think it was Ironic when he got an apartment in SSKK and then we thought how will he survive there but now to think of it, I think the script was pre written and if there was no FC , there would have been no confession, no Karaoke and no Drinking Wednesday! Its funny thing that one has to be in the right moment and right place to get into these things and even more funnier is that in situation like these you dont even have a choice , you are just there or something like you are meant to be there.
The initial autumn semester was not much of interaction except for the Norway trip and some other events. We came to know about the FC much more in the Bergen trip where he performed the insane Choclate - salami-coffee act in his famous mug.
The Mug is like a myth here. The Mug contained everything food alcohol occasionally water tea etc etc. One cannot imagine FC without his mug. Its impossible, without the mug he is kind of let me say nude !
The coming semester me and FC decided to play in the local league to field a team. The first thing was to find girls which was done by me in a very ackward manner by me which i still remember when i asked Merve and Secil " Hi you play good. Do you want to play with us in the league & btw I am Prady" Thus started the team Shovel Handle. The main motive behind us to play together was just to have fun and when we meant fun it was to keep shouting and talking all the time and to play with ENTHUSIASM which i think is very much lacking here.
And it was very nice of him to make the team slogan "PRADYUMNA" that was well i must say quite touching.

Well another thing which i quite forgot to mention was our love to Genesis. I dont know how it came up but when we came to know that we both kind of follow religiously it was like "hey have you heard this ? did you listen to that tour "  Talking about Genesis 24 *7 annoyed some people but what can we do its so cool.


According to me true friends are those who stand my you in times of adversity. And FC was just one of the many (I am grateful to all & if i start writing names it would be quite a long list). There was times just recently where i had completely lost myself & the personality completely changed & when i wanted out from every thing came a text from FC " Hey i see that you have lost enthusiasm and smile want to join for alcohol"  As i said everything is kind of written in script. It was the start of confession nights. The first one was just me ,FC, piotr & lot of alcohol. But the forth coming sessions included the Sperling , Peter. Like a good host FC provided alcohol which he scouted to get it from border shop in Germany. The transition from confession night to Karaoke is kind of unclear to me as I dont remember how it happened but then for last two months on every Wednesday it was like " ohhh hell its 7 need to finish work and go drinking " This wednesday routine would be greatly missed. Also the Sperling Birthday wish  was also sssssssoooo epic .
Saying this one has also to mention the Canadian Elections where the conservatives won and as a result it bothered our FC and that resulted in notions like FC marrying the german sperling or taking political asylum which according to me and others is a safe wise choice. The episode with the sperling is a funny one with FC needing to marry the sperling Just to get a visa and escape the conservatives but nevertheless its  in good humour.
This short but amazing one year with FC , drinking nights ,Karaoke & shovel handle would be so remembered and yeah every one will miss FC , I am sure of that . But then again we still have the back to the future meeting where we meet again and hopefully on a Wednesday and just mock , talk and it will be epic.
PS Nathaniel I will keep spreading Genesism though it will be tough without you !

And one more thing JESUS HE KNOWS US HE KNOWS THE WE ARE RIGHT!

Its time again for Goodbyes

Hah! So summer is coming soon. Summer sun , good weather and literally no one in Lund. Thats what summer is like here. Every one goes away. Funny thing is that it is the best time to be here in Sweden and I wonder why people go away. Last summer was not bad with Football World Cup and then every weekend Beach Volleyball.
Every semester people go away and as a Master student I am now kind of used to it. Come to think of it, i still have amazing friendship from the french duo of  Laetita and Dorine who to be frank never hung around in Lund but surprsingly thanks to facebook we are like child hood friends.
Last week the Italians came and to meet them was an amazing feeling. They are a bunch of funny guys and girls who just want to have fun and to be frank they are my favourite mentees along with the ever beer complaining Czech bugger Jenda.
This time though we are saying good bye to one of my closest and friends that kind of made a difference in my life. The french canadian, the funny french flore and the neutral Swiss Peter.
I wonder what would it be without FC?? No alcohol and no Wedesday drinking ?? I think I will try to carry on the revolution of  Wednesday Drinking along the remaining members of Team Joy. Life would be a lot less funny without FC. There would be less mocking of Germans and that would be sad. I will loose a wonderful captain whom I had arguments on Trivial issues but then again I will loose a person whom I can discuss about democracy. Ahhh life would be different then. And we will remember him for instances when he misplaces the "H" every where.
Florreee , I will miss her as well, I will miss the person who said always " yesssssss pradddyyyy " in a very heavy french accent. She to me is like an animated character , with her ballet like moves and of recently i realized killer tennis serves.
About the neutral Swiss , To be very frank he came in a time where i had the crises of my life and I was not really willing or wanting to meet new people , But then again it takes only little time and little interaction to know more people and I found out that how wonderful person he is. I have to say he is one of those lucky guys who has done a lot of adventure sports in this short span of time and not to mention his superb athletic abilities.
I just dont know or I dont want imagine how life would be without these nice elements,
But the biggest thing I will be sad about is that after summer there will be no more Maddie and thats kind of unimaginable in my little frame of mind. Its going to be difficult to come in terms of the fact that she would be gone and probably and probably we will never meet again. Writing this itself pains me , but then again there would be a time where I might have to move, Leave Kamil, Eva, Piotr, Johan , Tobbe and its going to be strange. In my entire life till now I have been always been moving meeting new people learning about everything and that to me is life , you keep learning no matter what. Whatever might be , if you stop learning then you are dead.
But saying this , I still have hope that we meet again in future with a re union and stories to tell. So facebook comes to rescue again , as I created the event back to the future, which happens in 10 years from now. Its going to be amazing that meeting and I am sure by then , in a decade people will change , there would be experiences to share and if it happens its going to be epic simply epic.
The good thing about it is the fact , in facebook it will always show in the events section and it will be like a reminder to make one think " ohh i wonder how they are doing ? Whats with them and lets talk and of course drink "  To end the blog i just put in this all time hit friends theme song

Wednesday Night Drinking / Rise of Genesism

Thursday afternoon, the sun is shining and I cant really concentrate on my impending examination. So I take this power -break just to write down a few things which has been long been overdue. For the mood, as always I am listening to Genesis.

Studies have been always been not one of my strongest points, all years its been about surviving and till now I am surviving quite well and hope to do so in future as well. So what do we write about, there has been a lot of things going on of late. This year has started not on a very good note for me. I faced ,still face some of the toughest times i have ever faced. During these tough times I have discovered many things, things otherwise i would not have ever discovered if i never been through this situation. These tough times made me realize that I have the feeling of hate which totally disappeared and the feeling of cursing some one, Well one must have these feelings other wise we are not human. These tough times lead to the foundation of the Wednesday drinking session, a chance to connect to my favourite german Maddie, a chance to know more people for example Peter , Piotr.

People might say Mid week drinking is kind of insane. Well in some ways it is, but on the brighter side it is also the time where you need a much needed break to re-energize oneself. Well thats a lie , considering the amount of drinks people do and how late the meetings go it is a blatant lie. I am still trying to manage my biological clock with the Mid week meeting/ drinking.

So how it all started? Like all things, I will take full credit for the beginning of it.  Like Delphi tea society which started quite good and turned into a disaster, this Wednesday meetings were started. Why ? Well good question, Frankly I would say it was due to the fact i was getting sick of people and the tea society had some kind of artificalness in it and I kind of hated / hate some people and there was no point hanging around with them.
The Mid week drinking started when i was thinking of going to watch football match and then i get a call from Jesus himself. asking me what i wanted to do. I said lets try to watch the football match at Jesus's corridor. Like always I pick some people on the way and i picked Piotr. The first session was not a football session but  movie acolapyse redux , very suitable for a drinking night.
After the movie Jesus asked " what about making this a tradition ?? , Drinking every Wednesday" I was like why not sounds good, will be a nice way to avoid certain people. As we all know good news spreads fast and infact very fast and when it involves drinking we always have poles lining up.
The coming week we had Kamil sending a text mid-day "When are we drinking tonight??" . So it was time where we did what we call soul stripping. That night we discussed a lot about life and how each one of us views it. Team members of team were not Joy but they had a lot of issues which surprisingly were kind of common. But saying this it doesnt mean it was depressing discussion, how the hell that can be? After all there is Jesus, Kamil in the discussion. We carried on meetings subsequently with many people not knowing about it. It was very funny that some people would disappear for some time period of time.
Saying that I would also like to mention this meeting led to the filming of the epic eva birthday video and all time classic one liners like " 25 !!! I feel sorry for you " " Ohh there are three handsome guys to choose form!"
These meetings led the stepping stone for "JOY  PRODUCTIONS"
But you know nothing is complete without some one we can all make fun of. So it led to the divine entrance of miss sperling. Miss Sperling qualifies perfectly for the role play, She is blonde, desperate, lacks filter and definately doesnt get the jokes. It is always nice to have some one whom we can all make fun of.
Miss Sperling came late but saying this I can say she knows about all the soul strip teases of every one of every one from Team Joy. But then again we also came to know about her , how she feels and how  she views life.
This mid week meetings have formented a strong bond among all of us. Like Jesus says " You all are my familij just on the other side the Pacific" It truly is, because we know each other so well and we try to help each other out , mock each other, and thats epic.
Then we have new members in the form of Piotr and Peter. To hear their story and what they had gone through and how they view life was really interesting.  Sometimes these meetings are so necessary for one to remember "Well yeah I am alive! and yes I am normal! "
But what i feel like is the fact that Jesus, me , Kamil, sperling have made a lot of impact on many peoples lifes.
Its just a gut feeling but i feel like some people are coming out of the shell and they are seeing life in all together different perspective and I am sometimes really happy about it seeing others have laugh and enjoy.
We might not have had our shares of laugh but we can surely spread Joy and Enthusiasm.
These factors lead to the rise of genesism and the ten commandments that I have already mentioned but nevertheless i rephrase it again

THE TEN COMMANDMENTS OF GENESISM
1. Phil Collins is Jesus 
2. Thou shall sing “jesus he knows me “ every morning. 
3. Thou shall have whisky every Wednesday.
4. Thou shall mock Germans as that’s the way to Nirvana.
5. Thou shall spread JOY, to every soul possible. 
6. Thou shall shout “ENTHUSIASM” to every random person at any random time. 
7. Thou shall smile no matter and make others smile. 
8. Thou shall have a “Holy Mug” to have your meals , drinks and dessert.
9. Thou shall not forgive and forget, but to curse them to genesism of pain.
10. Thou shall have space cookies to go to the next level.



Come June 6 it will be all over cause Jesus leaves to Canada to spread Joy and Enthusiasm but I feel this genesism would be carried on every where possible because from the persons i know from mid week drinking are all awesome people and we all will be pioneers of Genesism. But saying this we still have epic wednesday moments still left. I will end the blog entry with this really awesome song and I feel like yes shrinkers we are making a difference.

Tuesday Night Blues and Friends i care about

Well for the first time till now i could not go to play because i am on crutches and despite an all out determination  to go and play I cant really do anything. Its like jumping off into a river with a heavy stone attached to your leg and you watch helplessly but to drown. "Life hates me" is kind of a cliche now in the present context. Life tests people all the time and mostly life like to test people or as i would like to call give a face burn to some favorite few.
In this present test of life, I am just hanging on. As F.C said to me "Life is a wild river you need to ride it man, Even after a waterfall you can get your head out and continue to have fun and just dont get caught in the swirls" 
is something really amazing coming out of the guy who is mostly all the time drinking. And i suppose FC has to thank alcohol for his sometime high intellectuality. 
One of the persons I really admire is Lance Armstrong. My favourite sports person. He defied death and he not only defeated it but also reigned as a champion winning the tour de france 7 times as far as i remember. 
Right now i cant really work for my report which i need to submit as soon as possible as I cant think right now. Well thinking always have been a kind of difficult task to me. 
Its always very difficult to be the only child and to open up to your parents about your problems as it only increases their worryness. But in a way I have been always been lucky to have so called mum or aunt like Characters like Eva, Maddie, Aunt Laeti, Dada, lame Erlja. 
Also there are people like Kamil and Nathaneil who can cheer you up to the core no matter how bad the situation is, you also have a few perverts in the form of Piotr. Also you have people like Tobbe who has not a good sense of humour but a very sarcastic humour and Johan whose confusion can be also a sense of humour.  
So this is to all the people the Mr checkers , the drunkards and all the people who stood by me i just want to tag to something i found quite interesting .

You may not realize this – but the following is 100% true.
Think about some part of it daily.
There are at least 2 people in this world who you would die for.
And…….at least 15 people in this world who you love in some way.
The only reason that anyone
would ever hate you,
Is because they want to be just
like you.
A smile from you can bring
happiness to anyone,
even if they do not like you.
Every night, SOMEONE thinks about you.
You mean the world to someone.
You are special and unique.
Someone you don’t even know – loves you.
When you make the biggest mistake ever,
something good comes from it.
When you think the World has turned it’s back on you……
take another look.
Always remember the
Compliments that you received.
Forget about the rude remarks.
Happiness keeps you sweet,
Trials keep you strong.

Sorrows keep you Human,
Life keeps you humble.
Success keeps you glowing,
But, only Friends keep you going.
Always remember…when life hands
you a lemon –
always ask for sugar!
Good friends are like stars, you don’t
always see them –
but you know they are there.
I would rather have one rose and a kind
word from a Friend while I am here –
than a whole truckload when I am gone.

To all my lovely friends, I was never too busy to think about you.
Your presence in my life makes a whole lot of difference. Just knowing that you are there puts a smile on my face!

yeah its kind of copied but still worth sharing , come on what else can one expect from a person who has just been face burned.

The origin of Joy

So here we are, I am out of action for a week with a non-existent right back. Lifes been very tough through past few months , where despair, hurt , losing grip , pain become the words to describe oneself. It’s a pity that it turns out like this, so in times like these it would be nice to write a little thing about the word “JOY”. I have the shrink playlist on …… so I am in form.



“JOY” is a three syllable word , do we call it syllables ?? Any way I don’t care about it. JOY is a common English word used by French Canadians. Before I write more about JOY we must describe a French Canadian.
French Canadian def : It is a rare species found in the northen part of the world. They are by default strange. These homosapiens like to have salami, cheese and bread as a staple food. These species carry a very divine mug which has had a mysterious number of alcohols like rum , whisky or coffee and sometimes very rare in fact to be in statistical point of view its close to zero , it is filled with water. If a person is seen without the divine/ holy mug he is not French Canadian but plain Canadian.





So now that we are familiar with the definition we can move forward in defining “JOY” . Its funny that we don’t know longer use Joy instead we use PRADYUMNA. Pradyumna in itself is a rare exception. Its unfortunately is my name which is apart from the official passport and official transactions never been used. Infact sometimes I don’t even respond to it when it is called. I had nick names all my life tonoi (my official pet name @ home ) , tinks (college) , prody, pradi , don pradi and the very common one used here Prady. This name was given to me by my mentor as he found it very difficult to say “pradyumna lets go out for nation, lets go bottoms up” Pradyumna itself sucks out half of your energy.



So Joy alias Pradyumna was invented in those trips , I think the Norway one. It was well invented by who else , one doenst even have to guess “kamil”. It was the hike to the top of Bergen when these crazy French Canadian had to change his dress like once after every 2 minutes or so. The reason being that he had whisky in his holy mug and then his body could not adjust to the changing temperature. So that’s how it got invented.



This semester we fielded a korpen team with two Turkish girls , Secil and Merve. (we were so desperately looking for girls to be played in the korpen). It was as usual all the things happen in life totally accidental when they just came to practice for the first. And me as usual have no manners was very straight forward “hey hi ! you play good, would you like to play for league in our team which is not yet being formed yet. And btw my name is Prady” So surprisingly they agreed that very moment. So the next thing was to find a name. Well as usual people came up with lame names like “backstreetboys, step up and blank(that was my suggestion). The other lame name I ever heard was in a volleyball tournament with a team named “ two Swedish students and one exchange student” in Swedish.






Yes, yes there are some super lame people here existing on planet earth. But finally we agreed on “Shovel Handle” as suggested by the French Canadian. By the its not “Shovel Handle” instead it is “Shovel Andle” another common trait of a French Canadian is misplacement of the letter H. In the first match we were totally confused as what should we use as catch word so we narrowed down to “JOY” as that what we get by playing while playing volleyball or any other sports but the French Canadian had other plans and the team decided to go with “Pradyumna “ instead. Its kind of weird for my to shout my own name. Some time if there was more Joy for example there was an excellent point made everything would go like “pradyumna mahanta” with no synchronization. The good thing about playing with the French Canadian is that he doesn’t thinks in fact he doesn’t think at all while playing, he plays for just playing and that is a very very good motivating factor to play to have fun to have joy to have pradyumna all the time wherever you play. We have two excellent girl players in our team which is such a pain to find now. Secil can set any ball any where anytime and merve is although a bit lost sometimes, is a very good attacker. Its funny that when we play i usually talk like “ hey what about whisky this week end ?” “damn losing points but how about wine and trying out space cakes in Budapest!!”. So its always JOY when two crazy guys who absolutely talk shit play in the same team. I don’t know how JOY its for the other team members. We have till now won all three games so far but last one was too close for comfort!!!
An example of joy as what exactly is like

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vr3x_RRJdd4





The games remind me of another person I need to write about ohh yessss I surely need to write about my fellow Shrink , lets just call her miss “E.S”. Miss E.S is from the outset you can say a perfect bossy person. Now first we go through in defining bossy
bossy1
adj bossier, bossiest
Informal domineering, overbearing, or authoritarian
bossily adv


bossiness n

Miss “E.S” has all the above qualities. Yes she does. She cannot take a “No” ohh that’s a long shot infact she cant even take a suggestion. Miss E.S has all the so called German qualities. I pity her future better half, he sure is in big trouble.
But despite all these so called dominating factors she also has a hidden side a very womanly side that no one knows. As usual everything happens just, accidently I stumbled on it accidently. It was just the answer that she gave to me to my causual “hi” that I came to know about it. I for a change give her advices and every time I give her advice it reminds of the character George downes form the movie “My Best Friends Wedding”, or “Gigi” as I now call her now a days. She surprisingly has same issues but the difference is being she is blonde, twice as much me and less smart. She is a part of a secret society called the “shrink society” which by the way has its own spotify playlist. The other member you don’t even have to guess he is there everywhere by default. Me and miss E.S. are in a team as well the shrink team we try to hold each other’s back, sometimes it becomes very difficult when we both are at level 0 , in other words that is the level where we both are fucked by life and sometimes in level 1 that’s the don’t care state and it’s a state of awesomeness. But yes “LIFE HATES US” is the motto we live by. Well if I had not signed the confidentiality clause there would have been many many funny incidents that could have just made people say “Their life is a joke “. But sadly those things are not to be mentioned. Maybe in ten years time when I have the permission to do so and when life no longer hates us I can come back and write about it,

Yesterday was one of the worst days in my stay here , I quit playing before because I was hurt so badly , even though it is a very common feature but not this bad. I feel the only last remaining joy is being taken away from me. But I am Joy and its me and I will fight back for it and soon it will be same old Mr Awesome again. Well I hope to be old me again maybe, like the beatles say “with a little help from my friends”

The Delphi Tea Society


Hah ! its time to write in about the delphi tea society. The society which i would say was formed initially by Ines. Wasnt it had been that ice breaking volleyball dinner, this society would never ever had existed. It was that dinner that me , I knew Kamil well and of course i would say it was the first time we all came to know about madde who in near future turned out to be a really wonderful person.
To have a friendship with Kamil is actually a very easy thing , he is far most one of the best and friendliest person you can talk too. And if you have a descent sense of humour even its a very little one you would actually appreciate his company. So this dinner for many it might just be an ordinary dinner but for me it was like going to a family so far away from home.
After Ines left and so also the exchange student left it was quite a difficult time for me as i suddenly lost close friends to hang around with. But at the same time in summers we had tobbe and johan and we just hang around to watch the World Cup matches and BBQ every day. It was nice day and so called summer times passed quite well. But since then all social gathering came to a standstill for some time as all of us became busy but then again we tried to meet up some time or other.
the revival of the meeting place with tea society started with me calling anne and johan for ccard games. Well to be very frank i havent seen any one so aloof like johan who lost concentration every other second or to be kind enough let me put every other minute. So like a bad habit this tea sessions after volleyball became sort of a routine which was nice.
Soon we had new addtiions in form of Jesper who was initially to be precise not that enthusiastic of coming into the tea. These tea sessions started at around 12 or later and continued till 2 -3 in the morning. And you were sure of missing the morning class, but whatever it might be we coontinued having them more intensely.
It took a lot of convincing to make Eva come and join the tea parties. She weas initially apprehensive and it did require a loot of convincing to make her come. But she did come anfd guess she was one of the last persons to leave. I was initially not that sure if eva is a friendly person and then once i knew she likes movies like hostel , kill bill i was like oh yeah she is cool! Soon these tea sessions were converted into dinner session with different recipes , pizza nights and MOVIE NIGHTS!One late night movie per week was initially the aim which made us see a lot of new movies some classics and some really crappy ones!
One of the funny or rather quite obvious happened was me sleeping of at every tea session well nearly all of them . I once remember that Kamil actually played a prank on me when i was sleeping well he always does but then he is Kamil.
The good thing about Kamil coming to tea session is the fact that he brings his trade mark CHEAP WINE! but never mind it is still wine and i really look forward for his tea session thinking " ahh wine again"
The Delphi tea society was created by Piotr. There are couple of things one needs to know about Piotr. Charles actually told me once that he never used to talk and was concerned with himself or rather very reserved. But soon vb and us he changed like hell. HE is one of the most helpful guys in the town i can bet on that by putting my whole money on it.
I havent mentioned madde in this particular blog cause come on how many times can i write about her?
The tea society is just one of the great things that happened with humble beginnings and now is so popular hang out , its like out of the comic Archie where Archie and his friends hung around popsys. We can be , all of us be character of any teen comic book or series. It is a place where you , at least came to know people more and if you live in a place which is like in other continent it really helps to discuss anything and everything and you trust on people and you share your whatever you want , it just feels great. I can say that cause Eva , she is my listening pole , i just talk everything to her. I say Eva because she is just right person to talk to, Johan well he will make situation more complex, Tobbe ahem only metal talk, Jesper psst i never got an answer from him. Kamil well nothing serious can be discussed with him. Madde no comments.
But of late things have become complicated and i feel a little strange to be in sessions , I have a feeling of being lost. It is strange to say i sometimes feel totally like a stranger when i meet Kamil these days who has been my coach and friend for more than a year. I feel ackward to talk to Palmers who have been so nice in their own strange way, or just to share a joke with Piotr. I feel so so fucking strange, so confused and sometimes sad too. In my whole stay i have never thought of taking a break from playing vb even when it was bad ankle injury and now i feel like oh what the heck, why should i play ? It is just these creepy thoughts or thinking that makes you from a very fun loving person to an extremely depressing person who literally hates everything. Tea society is by far one of the best things that happened in a way or its just creepiness , i think its time to add new happy people and let go of the derpressing who are just creating a bad mood. There are just too many things in my freakinlgy small mind which needed to be sorted out.
Tomorrow I am looking forward in meeting the whole Palmers, see Tobbes defence and hope for a good day !
