The first year

-That autumn some great political changes happened in the country. Slobodan Milosevic was no longer Yugoslav president. Some other came and people were cheering to them and booing to the others. All in al,l nothing that we have not already seen. The world watched with wideopened eyes on these events. And we felt proud.

-People were again full of hope mixed with anxiety for the future.
-That was the year that great Olympic Games were played.
-The blockbusters that year were Gladiator , The Patriot and Eryn Brockovich.
-On the streets of Belgrade, that autumn, people were wearing khaki truckers on their feet.

- And he was chasing her until he caught her. It was a successful year. They worked a lot and they loved each other a lot.

The Second Year

-Slobodan Milosevic was apprehended. But no matter how much people expected huge changes, things were moving slowly. The previous enthusiasm left the hearts of men and women.
-The world went crazy when the terrorists crashed two planes into World Trade Centre Twin Towers.
-The cloned sheep Dolly got sick.
- People were rushing to cinemas to watch Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon...

- She chased him until he proposed to her. It was a successful year, to some like them. They both graduated and got Bachelors degrees. They got married (to each other, of course).
