"Along the way you bump into people who make a dent on your life. Some people get struck by lightning. Some are born to sit by a river. Some have an ear for music. Some are artists. Some swim the English Channel. Some know buttons. Some know Shakespeare. Some are mothers. And some people can dance."
-Quote from the movie "A curious case of Benjamin Button"
-All photos were taken by me. This is my favorite quote from the movie and the inspiration behind this post.
Have you met someone who has made a major difference in your life, or has the potential to?

Pics from yesterday's dinner and our plan to escape to Hong Kong.



Our trip includes visiting the
Aqua Roma bar and Aqua Spirit restaurant, Cova gelato and Antiques Patisserie, and many more.
In other news, I am obsessed with the speakers my
brother gave me for my birthday. Even more now that I realized they come with a little remote controller.

Anybody want to do my homework for me?

Ever wondered what a New Years Eve dinner looks like in a European household (Russian in particular)? I'm about to give you a glimpse.







Food and LOTS of it, with caviar and champagne always ready to be refilled. That's actually not even a quarter of what was on the table. That is why North Americans are normally surprised when they attend a European celebration. By the amount of food, of course.

My kitty decided to introduce himself to my blog. Hi Beba!

My Christmas trip to Boston made me realize that I was kind of infatuated with a few things:
1. the city (life) and the scenery of it.

2. airplanes and airports. There is something so amazing and crazy about having nothing but air underneath you.


3. food/snacks/beverages, or should I say the variety of it?
I could not get enough of Powerade Zero water and Au Bon Pain.


4. Movies. Yes, I will not exchange a good movie night for anything else. I watched two great ones actually: Valkyrie and The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. (Benjamin Button is a must watch and my favourite movie of 2008).
5. Harvard. Need I say more? In my deepest dreams, I am a student there (emphasis on DREAMS).

Overall, my trip was too fun. Check out this scenery from our room:

I met a friend. It was this man sitting in Au Bon Pain with a toy. Confused?

My first martini. Ever.

I also got these gorgeous flowers yesterday! (No, unfortunately not from a secret admirer).
