I'm going to stop visiting music classes. Too much work. It seems like Sunday, but it is Saturday. I'm sitting at the desk with my dictionaries all day long. I understand that it's my profession, maybe even vocation, but it is week-end! Lack of time. Meanwhile, I'm going to finish the translation of the another Uhland's poem. I wonder how.
Recently I've finished reading espionage novel "Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy" by John le Carré. Earlier I'd read another page-turner by this author - "A Murder of Quality". I got into it in no time. Very compelling. Both.
I'm sure the movie is gripping from start to finish.
*looking forward to the premiere*
Meanwhile, let me share with you some quotes from the book:
To possess another language is to possess another soul (supposedly by Charles the Fifth)
Amazing what people will tell you if it gives them a chance of showing off their languages XD
To recognise failure is to live with it A service that did not struggle did not survive
An artist is a bloke who can hold two fundamentally opposing views and still function (Scott Fitzgerald)
Too much wampum not good for braves (Red Indian joke)
The more you pay for it, the less inclined you are to doubt it
Сегодня - день Икс. Выпускной экзамен в муз. школе. Через 3 часа. В общем, я готова, всё будет отлично. А даже если что-то будет не так - я всё равно на след. неделе еду во Львов %))
