If you want to do something at home then the best thing you can do is to use cold camillie tea. Make a cup of camillie tea and put it in the fridge for a little while. Then use some cotton to suck up the tea and then you apply drops into your eyes. Camillie tea is the best thing for eyes. I...

Oh yeaaah, I remember spending a lazy afternoon at a beach near Copenhagen, listening to the guy who sang, "I still got the blues for yoooou" Flower

Yes, Tracy Chapman. It was a long time ago but she was cool, standing there all by herself on a huge stage with her guitar. Everybody was singing along, so it was great. It was a loooong time ago since I saw the Eurythmics. I remember I was a bit dissapointed as they seem to "just put on a...

This is fun! I havent been to a concert in a while but reading this thread, got me remembering all the good times I have had at concerts. Here is a list of the ones I can remember and yes my age will show somehow: Red hot chilli pebers Santana, many times Toto Eurythmics Steve...

I think my hardest read so far has been Kierkegaard. It is in Danish but its in an old form of Danish and then his looong senteces and making up of new concepts. But once I got the hang of his way of expressing himself, then I simply loved his language and I managed to see just how ironic and...

Thank you Stewart! This set me back to when I read Kundera long time ago, and your words make me want to read him again. Flower

Hello again, I am back and shall pick up our conversation from where we left off. :) I like people who can live in the present but I also couldnt do without some kind of plans for the future. I just think and feel that many people get lost in goals and plans that they forgot their heart...

I have one cat now. Recently I had two, but one of them was old and died. The old cat was very housetrained, in the sense that I could call her and she would come, and if I said NO then she knew she wasnt allowed to do whatever she was doing or I could say OUT and she left the room. The other...

Sirmyk, Look at one page, there is approx. 20 words pr. line, so it will never be 5 pages. It will be 60 lines. (1200/20). I know that I am fast but I dont think its outstanding. You give it a try, check out just how long one second is. It longer than you just saying "one". Many...

Sergo, I shall get back to you very soon. I have been pretty busy. Flower

I went to a very nice bookstore today, which is a bit far away, so I wont call it "my bookstore". The store has different levels/floors and a part of the store sells used books. There is a big cafe where you can sit and read the book before buying, eat lunch etc. Today I went just to browse...

4 words pr. second! 4 x 60 sekunds=1 minutte. Of course sometimes it was more than 4 and other times less depending on how long the word was. When I think about it, it does seem fast but not un-do-able. I was really working fast and could not hold this speed up for a long period. It was a test...

Funny you are talking about typing! I did a typing test recently in a job interview. The interviewer was pretty impressed. 240 words pr. m. and NO mistakes! :D She said that 200 wpm is considered to be secretary level. Flower

I am reading Dostojevsky right now, and I have to dissagree. Dostojevsky is anything but boring! He does have several shorter novels which you can enjoy and it would give you a good taste of what a great writer he is. I have been told that other russian writers can be very hard to read...

I kind of like people who live whatever they are feeling! Rational thinking and material things are not whats it cracked up to be. ;) I once heard a radio program about some russian students. They were talking about the difference between living like they always had and now being being to...

Smiling, yes I thought so too! The roof is just not like yours though. Yesterday I was told a story about this church actually. The architect got very upset after the church was built, as he has made one big mistake. The staircase goes in the wrong direction. It should have been the other way...

You are welcome! How many people are working in the office? I have been reading this book "The russian singer" by Leif Davidsen. He used to work in Moscow for the danish national tv. In the book, he mentioned these winter hats and I got to think of you when I saw the penguin, just like Kenny...

Mari and CDA, which authors have you read many books of ? Wolhay, maybe you would like to join us at the Paul Auster dicussion in the author forum? Flower

Smiling, I was thinking the same thing! :D
