31 March 2000 Our trip was fine, except for me taking cold while smoking - i had this tickling in the throat in the night again and I think I chilled out my ass. I've been reading my poems to the girls in the train (we were going with Marina and Elya). I took champaign because I thought Elya forgot to take the bottle and we had anyway only "French Boulevard" which is crappy, so I took Odessa and talked girls into drinking "French Boulevard" which Elya did take in the train, so we went to sleep rather easily. I took 2 films for my camera and I think I wasn't mistaken since I decided to take everyone's portrait picture and we're 19 there! We had our DV retreat with Han Lin, the new director and I'm a little bit embarassed because I think I was too nauthy because I was defending Greg's and Han adopted way of weekly reports and Anya, our Ukrainian DV coordinator wanted us to send it to everyone in DV Ukriane. Greg came, telling the same as Han Lin, he finally told he want to keep it this way then Anya had to tell we'll have 3rd report every 2 weeks for DV Ukraine to keep colleagues informed. I was naughty indeed but I had it the way I've seen right finally because do you think there is a difference between the report to your superiors from 3 parts: 1 - done, 2 - planned, 3 - concerns (which could be about internal PH work so destined to be direct contact with Director) and a report sent to everyone?... I didn't look good though. I'm afraid that thruth will always be more precious to me than the apparences. CC retreat is taking longer and I decided to check my mail. I was surprised and overwhelmed to see my bro haveing sent me out a short letter 2 hours before leaving to the airport and having to sleep a bit before it... Isn't he just the sweetest? :-) A lot of people in the office, Yaroslav and I was out and bought 3 CDs for our office, all we needed finally - they're much cheaper in Kiev than in Odessa. At the general retreat we all said a word for Greg (I think I was the only one who mentionned not only him as good he was but also Han Lin) and gave him our gifts. I had impression that our girls were much more impressed by my artwork than he was and by our pigeon we bought but after all he seemed to be astonished by all the gifts that was there (none as beautiful as ours though). Polina was crying all the time and I nearly followed her in the end. But honestly, I have impression that what I was saying was somehow wrong and that our gift wasn't taken as good as I expected from Polina's words so I'm a bit disappointed. I was in the body which showed splendinly my breasts under the jacket and on my high heels... There are few quite attractive guys but I don't think it's right of me to expect anything, I've not come for that certainly but I can't just forbid myself to let slip such thoughts as it's srping outdoors! :-) Bad news is that I'll hardly be able to leave tonight for Lena said there is no single ticket - everyone's going to Odessa for the first april and the only one who has back tickets is Han Lin... and honestly I regret he'll have to leave the party early, I don't know why... Well, we have to leave to Vika's for the party - our taxi is arrived. |
