Happy birthday (fake)

European Commission on fire

Yesterday around lunch time European Commission was really on fire! Roof of Berlamont building was burining open fire for a while and smoke covered Schuman are. The view from my office.

Mafia movies

The godfather and the Scarface- some movies I wanted to see for a long time... and finally finally finally watched it!
Yes, it's classics, yes, it's Al Pacino, and yes, it's Italian mafia movies! pretty cool! I think that's the godfather is a bit overestimated by telling that's the best ever made movie. Next on the list is La Dolce Vita...not very mafia movie though

movies time!

Hard to believe

I've got my old aiesec times friend Vija visiting me in Brussels. She is a good friend of my flatmate as well...oh, yeah... aiesec connections:) Yesterday we had really fun and hard laughing night out. Besides making "with or without" party plan for June and some other travelling plans, one INCREDIBLE story happend.
Around midnight we were walking back home and saw two credit cards on the street. Being good citiznes, we picked it up and were planing to bring it to the police or bank the next day. Walking few blocks further Vija sudenly asked what was the name of the owner... some Phillipe XXX and we just passed his door!!!! So, we found the credit cards and we found the owner in the middle of the night!!!! Well, it was his office door and obviously nobody opened the door in the midnight:) so, we droped the cards in the mailbox.
I agree, there are a lot of unusual things happen to me, but this one was still something WOW!
