Check out the weirdo

September 27th, 2006

It’s been quite a hazy week in Budapest..the first week I didn’t get to the banks of the Danube…that stinks. Because of that..somethin’s definetly wrong. Just because of that.

The day I arrived I promised myself I’ll go by the Danube almost daily. It calms me down, makes me remember who I am, why I am here, makes me think of home and possibilities.

Mankind would be ruined without hope. We would walk narrow paths in a dark cellar….and all this without hope of seeing light at the end of them. There’s lots of light by the river, especially at night; and mostly happy people there, all the people that enjoy their daily piece of peace of mind. …

Uuuuuuh…someday! Someday…when I’ll be a sexy bitch plus a big shot, I’ll walk by there on high heels and in terribly expensive clothes of wool and velvet. I’ll have a red scarf and wear Dior mascara. I’ll take a long glance at the palace and think of all the happy days of my life..that are still to come. I’ll hail carelessly for a cab (no Mercedez in this picture) and go to that expensive restaurant on Vaci utca, the one  my father took me to the first time I was here. I’m gonna’ meet a terribly fancy guy who dosen’t know yet how I look in jeans. I’m gonna have fish and champagne,….get a little dizzy. Then I’ll walk the way to the Four Seasons hotel..just to enjoy a little bit the night breeze. I’m gonna’ get a short, elegant good-night kiss, then walk in and ask for my key. I’m gonna’ flirt 30 sec with the guy at the reception, then head for the elevator. I’ll have a plane ticket for the next day with a worldly destination. And..ofcourse,.i’ll look perfect in the morning!

This will be all about the city I will have spent my university year(s) in…

Special mention for my Hungarian boyfriend: The fancy guy in the picture is not u, nor the fancy kiss…so no prospective worries. I was talkin generally…actually i figured him with short hair and Armani suit! So..if u wana walk with me by the Danube that’s nice and thoughtful..but..that won’t fulfill this particular fantasy..

    O saptamana intreaga? :) Pai ce faci toata ziua? Universitatea asta e chiar langa Dunare, dupa Parlament, nu? Cel putin cantina unde am mancat eu acolo era. Oricum, nu stiu daca e nevoie sa treci podul pentru o priveliste mai interesanta. Budapesta mi s-a parut mereu mai misto vazuta de pe partea opusa cu Parlamentul.

    Toata ziua, draga Radu..se descompune in 6-8 ore de curs si vreo 150 de pg de citit..pe care ar trebui sa le citesti seara. Cand iesi din calvar..nu prea iti mai arde de plimbari..tot ce vad e sticla de vin din frigiderul de acasa. Evident biblioteca ma respinge..biblioteca..si toti oamenii din universitatea aia care fac drumuri cronometrate in pagini…ma duk catre pagini, citesc pagini, mai am de citit pagini. La naiba..astia habar nu au sa se relaxeze. Am un prieten cu care daca vreau sa ma vad tre sa fac programare in weekend…pt ca are de citit..pagini!
    Best experience so far..ai dreptate…partea opusa Parlamentului, sus la palat..am baut o sticla de vin pe statuia de pe care ai cea mai tare priveliste a Pestei. Gratis, romantic si bun! Dar a inceput scoala…
