today, or yesterday actually, marks the end of the 'mini' intesive program of growth we had here in ljubljana. because we're still a 'c' cluster, the focus of our intensive teaching campaign was on home visits. i feel that the enegery in ljubljana was slightly different while this was going on. we had quite a bit of success, actually, and the ( Read more... )

tonight, kiki treated us to a very lovely little dinner. i haven't been to many sit-down restuarants in ljubljana, largely because the food is relatively expencive. however, kiki had just recived a holiday bonus from work, which was the boss generated via some strange accounting. so, the money was slightly dirty. kiki figured the best way to ( Read more... )
