WEEKend, i prefer the WEEKend.

ok, so chances are nobody but kelly will get the "weekend" subject title... oh well.
anyways,
yes, the weekend.
yesterday i took the bus to Veliko Turnovo because i was in desperate need of some winter boots.
i am so bad at choosing shoes, because I don't ever like anything, but at the same time, i don't have very good taste in shoes, so i end up getting not cute ones anyway.
i have always thought that my lack of shoe taste had no actual bearing on my life since i never look at people's feet, i wrongly assumed that nobody else did either.
so maybe i made an incorrect assumption.
i have worn my flip flops to very innapropriate occations assuming that no one ever looked down.
so once again, looks like the rest of the world doesn't think like me.
back to topic, i got some boots, my feet won't freeze this winter. my collegues are happy, my mom is happy, and i am happy, as i didn't want my feet to freeze either.
so yes, veliko turnovo.
i spent the whole day walking around the city.
it was crazy, because there are so many freaking amazing view, with no one around.
i stood by an old monastary on a cobblestone road overlooking the whole city in the mountains and there wasn't a single human produced sound to interrupt it.
i absolutely love veliko turnovo.
love. veliko. turnovo.
and... i decided to take a cab back because i didn't want to wait the hour for the bus and i was exhausted from 8 hours of walking.
but this time, the cab driver was a women. she asked if i liked some kind of music that i totally didn't understand. i said yes, because i figured, either i said yes and i would find out whatever kind of music she was talking about, or tell her that i had no idea what kind of music she was talking about in which case she might try to explain it and again, i would have no idea what she was talking about, since i have noticed that when you don't understand certain words people just try to say them slower, as if somehow a slower pronounciation will somehow make a word that you have never heard before and have no clue of somehow understood.
i figured 'yes, i love that music' was the easier rout.
well apparently she was refereing to the most beautiful classical piano music i have ever heard.
so after a day walkinging around an amazingly breathtaking and historical city, i was engulfed with breathtaking and historical music.
fantastic day.
and, if it isn't obvious, a much better cab ride.
:-)
