Had a busy busy weekend...I got myself absorbed in reading about the Holocaust; and I even ordered some five books by Elie Wiesel who was himself in the concentration camps at Auschwitz...This is the most historical event which entraps me in its snares of evil...and the question of God comes in!! Where was God?!! Does anyone of you have any answer to this?!

Anyways I'm still struggling with this and will be thus anxiously awaiting for the books to reach me in the coming days. On Saturday I went out with one of my buddies who is also here to do some good research at our world-renowned theology library which is acclaimed to be the second biggest in the world. Had an extra hour of sleep and woke up started off reading an excerpt from a book and got ready for church got back home prepared lunch ate also some typically ukranian food and drank some hungarian drink...with a mint flavour not my favourites but could not turn my mate down hehe...

Then headed back to my room finished reading the article and was about to start off writing my reflection on it but realized that it was time to get ready to get to the STUK for a jazz festival with my Polish and German friends....will get to post a photo of us there when I get to receive it from Christina (the German) it was quite fun, drank a couuple of sweet beer - will get the name some other day...it tastes quite good...it tastes like any other drink except like a beer!!

Anyways, this brings us to yesterday...andddd it rained all day...all day long...was planning to do my laundry after classes but had to forget about it...has to do that later this week...
And today I had to rush to the library to meet up with my promotor Profs. Hans Ausloos who will be my tutor or supervisor in my writing the research paper...I read out to him the proposal and guess what?!!! He was dumbfounded...he was so pleased with it!! Gave me the go ahead to sumbit it...I'll do that on Monday.

In the meantime I'm revising for tomorrow's Greek test....wiiiii

Have a craze for chocolate....does this have any psychological explanation?!!

Off to have a glass of wine...my Ukranian neighbour said that she is feeling and looking a lot better after she got to drink a glass of wine a day...Let's have a try at that...nothing to lose something to gain!!

Instead of asking 'where was God?' maybe we should ask 'where was man?'

Ahh lucky you've been to a jazz festival! I've missed this year's event!

somone once did explain to me the chocoalte craze thing.. but anyways.. apparently chochy is too addictive.. recently I even heard it's good for the heart!! haha.. Man will decieve himself in any way to keep indulging in the sweetest things in life!
