What did i do today?

I know that there are many people in this world that spend every day like the day before. I know i m not one of them...

My schedule today


Woke up at 07.00, got ready and got in the bus to Leuven central station to go to Brussels, on the way, there is a traffic jam, is there traffic jam in Leuven too???? My god.

Anyway, made it to the station, a bit late, but better than never, missed the train by 1 second, waited for 20 minutes for the other in the cold morning. Hopped in the train, was planning to study, but fell a sleep. Woke up by the announcement ' We are at Gare Du Midi '.

Got off and headed to the Ukraninan Embassy where i was already rejected on Friday because i had scanned documents. I m bringing scanned documents again, i know, i never learn. But this time AGORA Kyiv organizers called them and asked them to agree those papers till the originals arrive.


Entered the embassy after changing two trains, the embassy is in the middle of nowhere. Got in, no one in the queue, sweet. The woman asked me what i want, i said i need to apply to visa. She told me i have to wait for the council, i told that i have a lesson in 1 hour, and i know already that i ll be late for it. She called another lady which is her superior, i remembered her from friday. Tried to explain her that i brought scanned invitation again, but at first she told me she cant accept it. Then she remembered the phone conversation and took the documents. Normally for me Ukranian visa process takes 9 days, and i had only 7 days left. She told me to pay the double fee for fast visa ( 3 days ), and i start begging, telling that i m a poor student, and if i pay double, i cant eat anything this month. Almost about to cry. She says ok, pay the normal fee. Nice:)

Got out of the embassy and started running, 20 minutes till the lesson in Leuven. Ran to the station, already 11.00 am. Took the train, and it made an announcement ' The driver isnt here yet '. My god! I m in Leuven around 12.00 pm, started running as fast as i can to the class, got there at 12.10 pm. Listened to the remaning %25 of the lesson. Tried to be involved in the class from what i have studied. At the end, went to the teacher and sucked up, saying i m sorry.

Another 4 hours of class, lots of listening, writing and participating. I m an excellent student:) Meanwhile informing my g/f that i m hopefully getting the visa.

Lessons finished, i m dead. Its around 18.00. Went to my dormitory, eat soup. Did the day finish for me? Of course not. Left for the gym around 19.00, met me dorm responsibles on the way. They thanked me a lot for the activities i held for students integration on the first day, and told that the students thought they planned it, even though it was my plan. Again, some one takes the credit for something i did. I m used to it already:)

After 1 hour of sport, went back to my dorm, took a shower, and now i m here. Need to do some work for ' Where Does Europe End? ' but before i ll get something to eat.

Busy day, but me like:)
