Week Six

Is there anything in your past that you would like to change? 

Would you change it if you could?

This is very difficult topic because we have to remember the past and to search deep to find what we would like to change if we could. When i search in my past i'm not really sure if i want to change something or not. Because you know how is one saying, don't look what's behind you, but remember the way that you crossed, to be who you are. So i think the same like this proverb. But since i have to speak about something in the past that i would like to change if i can, i can find something. This can be my wish to travel all around world, but i didn't travel at all when i was younger, i started recently to travel.

Now is question why is like this? I'm not really hundred per cent sure why is like this, but lets go step by step. When i was younger my country Yugoslavia, now Serbia, was passing trough transition and trough very bad time. When i was born it was Civil war in my country, in 1999. my country was bombed, in 2006. one part of country (Montenegro) get independence, and again in 2008. other part of country get independence too (Kosovo). In fact, Kosovo break away without consent of my country and with help of other countries, but this is topic for some another day. Anyway, very hard situation and first of all no enough money was one of the reason and the biggest reason. Another reason can be, all of my friends didn't really like to travel so i didn't had with who to travel.

On the end i start to travel, i collect some money, travel to USA, and then i worked on student exchange program, make something and travel all around USA, trough Route 66, started in NYC, trough Cleveland, Chicago, Sent Luis, Oklahoma, Albuquerque, Santa Fe, Grand Canyon, Las Vegas, Los Angeles and San Francisco. Also i lived in state of Maine and Ogunquit city and Florida and Miami Beach. When i come back from USA, I also travel in a lot of European cities like Paris, Rome, Prague, and countries with visit more cities like Hungary, Germany, Austria, Croatia, Romania, Bulgaria, Turkey, Montenegro, Bosnia, etc.

If i can change something in past i will travel more when i was kid. But even this is not that bad right?

Week five

Have you ever been involved in some serious wrongdoing? What lesson did you learn from the experience?

Once a upon a time i was involved in some wrongdoing when i was a kid. I mean this isn't so much  serious wrongdoing but it was little bit wrong. One of my best friend and me wanted to go to our capital city in Serbia, Belgrade to watch football game of my favorite football club, Red Star.

When i ask my father to go on the game, he of course refuse because of few reason, first i was young and never go by myself, it was very dangerous to go alone, and game is finishing very late so he is worry how i will come back. So his answer was no. Do you think that this stop me? Since that mistakes is a natural part of life. Of course this didn't stop me, the only problem was that we didn't had enough money, but when we collect we had enough to buy game tickets and maybe for some drinks. So how we will get there, i ask my friend, he say me no problem, we can hitchhike.

Ok, lets do this, we decide. We meet each other and go to to walk in direction of our capital city and hitchhike. Previously i said my parent that i will spend night at friends house, he say the same. In begin nobody stop but on the end stop a big truck. When door was open in truck sitting a guy with mustache and he speak some strange language i think he was from Turkey. We decide to enter to truck because we need to come on time for game. Guy was totally normal and drop off us on entrance of city. Only was scary thing to drive with him in truck and he didn't speak our language, but we survive. We take a bus and go to game.

When game was finish it was little bit before midnight so we can't do hitchhike now, its too dangerous. So we decide to go on train, but we didn't had money. We enter to train and conductor come to us when time come and ask us for tickets. We didn't had money or tickets so he ask us to go out on next station. When train almost arrive on next station we decide to go to restroom and lock a door and to stay there till our station. This plan work out and when we arrive to our station we go out but conductor saw us and yelled on us. But it was too late we arrived.

From that day i learn lesson that is not good to try to do things and not pay and laying our parents. 

Crop Circles

Crop Circles who made them?

Crop circles first began cropping up in the 1970s, sparking claims that they were created by extraterrestrials. Although two men came forward in 1991 and said that they had created the patterns as a UFO hoax, they did not take responsibility for all of the crop circles, leading some people to believe that perhaps something paranormal is also responsible for the strange spheres. While scientists know paranormal forces have nothing to do with crop circles, the patterns are intriguing, with some scientists trying to figure out exactly how they are made​​.

This one is very old picture of crop circles from 17. century and this is definitely made by devil.

This one is made by aliens, because is too big that human being can make this for just a one night and that nobody can notice this.

This massive 780-foot (238 meters) crop circle appeared in 2001 in the remote area of Milk Hill in Wiltshire, England. The elaborate design is composed of 409 circles that form a pattern called a double, or six-sided, triskelion, which is a motif consisting of three interlocking spirals.

This one is made by Big foot. It only make sense! These circles are used as their dinner tables. Have you ever seen a Bigfoot eat? Have you ever seen a Crop Circle made? I am totally on to this!

Week four

Outgoing/Vacation with family

I will today speak of one time when i went with my family on a Agricultural fair in Novi Sad, second biggest city in my country.

Agricultural Fair in Novi Sad is the leading trade fair in the field of agribusiness in the Western Balkans and Southeastern Europe. In seven days of the Fair meet and connect manufacturers, retailers, professionals, scientists, politicians, business delegations and representatives of the media and visitors from all areas of social and economic sectors.

Going to Agricultural fair for my family is like standard family thing where my family going every year in month may. This is not just regular Agricultural fair, this is much more there than fair. On fair you can see so many things, starting of new mechanical products for the field, like new tractors, agricultural machinery, equipment and parts thereof, different food and drink, livestock, machinery and equipment for the food industry, vegetable product and petrochemicals, dedicated facilities and processing plants, processing and storage of crop production, packaging, agro innovation in agriculture and everything else what is in relation to the agriculture.

The most funnies thing was when i watch for the first time alive horse racing. Which is include: Skipping an obstacle: horse and rider jump over cellular barriers. The attractiveness of this discipline stunned me. So now I understand why this discipline has contributed to this being the most common equestrian sport in the world. Also acrobatics on the horse that combines horseback riding, gymnastics and acrobatics. While horse counters in a circle, an athlete that performs gymnastic program.

Every year when i went on the the fair i see something new and something interesting. I think this year will be again some new innovation in agriculture to see it.

Till next time...

Week Three

Describe one of your grandparents

This time i will try to describe one of my grandparent, what he accomplished in life and my wish to be like him. Also i have the same name like my grandfather which i get from fathers best man.

My grandfather is also my idol because of many reason. He is very perspicacious, hard worker, always reasonable, and someone on who you can trust and you can believe, he will be always there to support and help you. He is right now 77 years old, but he still have cheerful spirit and sense of humor.

I would like even to mention his cheeks, which they are all up. From laughter his wrinkles going on up, not on down as usually. When i was a kid, and when i sleep bad or i have bad dream, i always come to his bed, he always know how to calm me down and to say me some story to make me easier to sleep.

He achieved a lot of thing in his life. For me he is even greater man, especially when i know the story that he and my grandmother started from zero and make everything for normal life. He had many problem in life when they was younger, but they together pass all barriers and they was successful on the end.

Still now, when he is older, he can easily work for two person, yep, for two, his spirit is still very young. He is as well all the time helping everyone. Since that he living in village and he have farm, who ever come to his home, he will first ask if you are hungry or thirsty and he will offer you first to try Serbian national drink "Rakija" and after that you have to eat homemade and organic food, even if you are not hungry. Rakija is something like plum Brandy but very strong.

I really like my grandfather because he have strong personality and i would like to be like him.

Week Two

Describe an important social event that you took part in

One more story about my favorite football club Red Star. This was on the game for qualification for European League Champions, when my club played with Italian famous football club Milan, and i went with my best friend. But this time i didn't buy tickets early like before, so when i went to box office they closed, because no tickets any more was available to purchase. I was so mad. But my friend who come with me tell me we can try to buy on street. Its probably somebody who have an extra one.

And on the end i find it for very much more expensive price then it was on box office. Something like 4x more expensive. But i didn't care for price, for me the most important thing was to attend on that game.This time i bough game ticket for right side of stadium. It was so important game, it was rematch, since that my team lose first game in Italian city Milano 1 against 0. I was hopping that we my club can catch up. 

Game starts great, my team was good and start to attack from begin. Atmosphere on stadium was incredible. This thing can be seen maybe one time in life. Stadium who have chairs for 55.000 people was so crowded and have so much people there, that you feel there is more than 70.000 people. And i was on the part of stadium where was Red Star fans, popularly called "Delije". Situation was that i 2 people stand on 1 chair. But it was worth to come and to see this even. Even because on the end it wasn't pass so good for my club. Whole stadium was covered with smoke from the torch. And everybody singing songs to support players on field.

As i said, game start good for our team, but unfortunately for my team Milan score so early. On the field you can see the different in class even if my team played with hart. Milan was so strong for my team they scored one more time, and there was no chance any more for my team to pass to Champions League after 20 years. In the final moments of the game, our player Djokic score for us to alleviate defeat. Final result on the end was 2-1 for Milan. 

So sorry Red Star, next time more luck...

Week One

Terrifying experience

My terrifying experience when i were a young is is the day when i go first time to football game where why favorite football club playing. My football club is Red Star from my country, Serbia. That nice day, my favorite club playing with football club Zemun in Serbian Championship Prva Liga. 

Why is this was important for me? My love for this club come from my father who is also big fan of Red Star. When i was very young he used to speak me about his adventures on football games. So my younger brother and me decide one time to go together.

We prepare everything scarfs, football jersey (in US is soccer jersey), we buy tickets day before (we didn't want to wait in long line on game day), etc. So what comes wrong when everything was fine?

My brother and me buy tickets for part of stadium where was supporters and fans from football club Zemun, not from my favorite one Red Star. Since that fans in my country is totally different than in US, and in my country they can be very violent if you where shirt, scarf or something else from other football club not from their favorite one.

When i realize what i do and where i am, omg that was so terrifying. It was good thing that i bring regular jacket with me, just in case if would me cold. Whole game i wearing jacket closed up to the neck. It was so hot, and i sweating all game. All the time one of my eye was watching game while the other eye watch Zemun's fans. I was so scare that they will see some part of my under shirt and that they will figure out that i not support their club. The worst thing was when my club score goal for victory from penalty kick, scorer was Nemanja Vidic, one of the best defender player in world, i can't even celebrate. I just continue to seating like nothing happen and watch Zemun's Fans how they was sad.

Since then, i learned to read before any purchase i make.
