2006 – my pros & cons
Here’s my summary of 2006:
pros:
1. Moving back to Białystok – I finally get to spend time with my family.
2. I managed to write my MA thesis, which was not at all the easiest task. But still, I think it’s the best way to finish your studies.
3. After a few years of always planning and not fulfiling the plans, I spent my holiday break exactly the way I wanted to :).
cons
1. A few disappointments in Białystok, which not only is not a night city, but could be called a “very early afternoon city”. Empik closes at 18.30 and almost no German magazines are sold. In some aspects, I really do miss Warsaw enormously.
2. I needed to reorganize my life. What bothered me most, I think, was the social sphere – none of my friends from studies lives in Białystok :(.
3. A lame New Year’s Eve party – I should have stayed at home :)
But in essence, I think it was a good year for me. So I wish myself another one like this, maybe only slightly better ;).
That’s a good idea to make that kind of summary. I think everybody should does it after each year, make a conclusion and reflect how it looked like- the last year. Here’s my pros:
1. I finally grew up a bit:) I’ve learned some things about people and life generally. I’ve changed my point of view and became more independent.
2. I DID visit U.S.A. for the second time, once again I could shop in Manhattan and go for a night walk downtown, near the oceanside. I must admit that the first time I was on a bigger impression, but this year my abroad vacation gave me even more and so much diferent kind of experience.
3. I got the best result in my studies ever. I’ve started to work in the university law consultation bureau.
4. The end of the year was great! I spent Christmas and New Year’s Eve with my family in Zabrze. It was even more great taking into account that I haven’t seen Them for 2,5 years! I finally managed to visit Cracow
5. We’re having the warmest winter I’ve ever seen so far.
cons:
1.It was really bad year in politics. I hardly watch any tv programmes, because it’s so humiliating to hear about all this scandals and crooks. Tv became even more obnoxious and agresful, so it has more frustrative influence on the society.
2. I spent too little time with my family. I planned to visit my sister in Olsztyn but I’ve never did.
3. I also red too few books in advantage of movies.
4. I realized tat everything is more and more expensive and Polish conditions of life are very lame and harsh for the most of the society and it doesn’t look like it’s changing at all:(
In conclusion I find this past year very good for me:)
