Changes

So i am slowly settling into a new routine

wake at 10...eat breakfast with the grandparents....and man thats fun....they have killer assorment of european salamis that i die for....i drink 2 or 3 cups of green tea (just like home)....

the whole time the grandparents complain about everything...they wish the communists would return....they like our version of socialism the best (i told u natalie that life in old yugo was something unique and perhaps the best life)....

then i get on my dads bike...and go meet neven and we go to the gym....i am getting into shape...doing situps...leg work..benching...arm curls...etc...all the good stuff...

then i go home take a shower...and talk with the grandparetns some more...and take my afternoon nap....about 3 or 4 i go out with neven around the city for a while, sometimes its also with my cousin....or the old man calls and im with him

now then

i met some people...frends of my dad....these 'psuedo intellectuals' of zagreb...and my o my are they boring....i mean monotonous people i have never met...they tell lame jokes...sit around....like today i went to a bbq and this same lady that tortured me on sunday....we had coffe with her...she is unbareable to me...i mean so boring and like bland....reeks of blah...but this time she had a partner in crime...another lady that couldnt even finish her storys she would laugh at them too much....but they were not funny at all it was painful to lisen...

i feel bad for my dad...i can tell he struggles but wont say anything...his old frends were much better...they were people in thier 40's who acted like teenagers...knew great jokes....these 'wanna-be-intellgista' get excited over a woddy allen film...i mean common woddy allen is a sick fuck, and a boring one, his past expire date was about 10 years ago....he is larry king's partner in boredom...

also i did get sold out by the old man a few nites ago...said he would call me and pick me up from my cousins but he never did...it hurt....but hey...seems the 'psuedo intellectuals' just might be more intresting then me....which only shows i aint half as smart or intresting as i always belived to be


in sporting news

milan broke my heart...i was never as despondent as i was last nite....i am a broken man...and this wound will not heal easily....perhaps the pilgraminge to milano will help things...but this stings

eddies heat is ahving a tough time...i hope they win but chances are slim


in other news
dani and luna are due to arrive soon...and i cant wait to see em...esp dani...its strange not hearing her voice everyday...though not getting to yell at luna or see her silly looking face and hear her darth vader like breathing behind my neck when its quite is something i do miss...

dani looked great in her prom pic...and all my spies...and yes i have plenty of them said she was smoking hot....nothing else was expected....congrats dani....i am sorry i wasnt there with u, but c'est la vie....or so im told...

i hope all u guys had fun, and it will be intresting to see who is where and what has changed when i come back...and i am sure there will be changes in everyone, some for the good and some for the bad...which is to be expected, and accepted.

Europe

Ok ok ladies and gents i am back home :) in old europe

i left the MIA at 1 24 pm on weds....i flew to D-roit (FUCK THE PISTONS) which was a boring ass flight...i slept for maybe 30 mins and had no TV or nothing....boring...

D-troit airport was aight...walked to my connecting flight sat my ass down and in a minute they called my flight to begin boarding....so i get on the plane and voila....a tv in the back of the seat (SEXY) and i check the lil booklet and i see i have a boatload of movies i can choose from.....then within a minute some dude sits next to me....(so much for mile high club)...first i watched 'Hotel Rwanda' with Don Cheadle, the movie was sick, amazing and yet so saddening, Cheadle was oscar worthy...amazing portrayl of a true story. then i watched 'Swimming Upstream' a movie set in the 50's about a Aussie family, in which there are 4 boys and a girl, and the father (a dock worker) for no reason preety much hates the 2nd oldest boy, untill he finds out the kid can swim like a beast...but so can his 3rd youngest son, so naturally he trains them both but never ackgnowledeges his oldest son but only the younger one...they become state champs in their respective strokes (backstroke and freestyle) but then the father sees them both swim backstroke (the older had it as his stroke the younger bro swam freestyle) and he secretly gets the younger to train backstorke...so at a big meet all of a sudden the older bro see's that his kid bro will race against him, he is completely siked out and looses the race badly to his sibling....and gets really pissed...he trains on his own and whooooops ass at the aussie national trials and goes to the empire games (the commonwealth games, only british colonys can participate, so no USA) and he gets silver...his bro no make the team....etc the movie was great go see it everyone. If anyone has see 'The Piano' or 'Shine' they know Geoffery Rush who is amazing, and played a similar role to the young boy in this movie as he did in 'Shine' which he was a prodigal piano player with a simialry abusive father...cept in this case he played the father. the next movie i saw was the chick flick 'In Good Company' and then i watched 'Coach Carter' (for eddie, hahahhaha)....i didnt sleep a bit.

So i land at Frankfurt, in Germany, i shed a tear for Old Europe :)....felt good to be on familiar soil....i step outside and its bloody chilly...i catch a lil airport train to the other terminal and get on the bus which will take me to my next airport...a nice as tour bus cost me 12 Euros (16 dollars) to the Frankfurt Hahn where a flight to Austria cost me 1 Euro (1.25 dollars) and about 10 euros in taxes....the ride is nice as i take pictures of german countryside....very nice...and the river Maine...we get to some traffic and i KNOCK THE FUCK OUT (for eds and melo).....wake up and am nearly at other airport...its a long drive...1.5 hrs....the other airport is tiny... and i notice that since luna and dani were geniouses the packed my swiss army knife in my carry on i had to check it after i beeped through the USA screening things .... and my shaving cream was packed in that bag and the luggage twats banged it or something...broke the cap and i guess there was pressure on the shaving cream release button....the lil pocket was full of shaving cream....bloody hell....so is pent 45 mins cleaning that shit...also got one of my shorts (i packed in case i wanted to change, on the plane) stained as it leaked thorugh the side....anyways i try to sleep in these lil bad plastic chairs and get 10 mins of sleep every 30 mins barely....then i go to check luggage and they tell me that its to heavy...so i had to take out about 3 kilos of shit (6.6 pounds) and put it in my 2 carry ons (the one that had shaving cream and my school bag) and naturally i could only move 4 pounds before they are both full but the Kraut lady liked me i guess and let my shit go thorugh despite being too heavy....i tried to sleep some more but had toruble since i was in uncomfortable positions....

finally i get on the plane...and since its sit where u like i make a mean face and no one sits next to me...as soon as plane takes off i lift up all three seats and go to sleep... it was great...cept it only lasted like1 hr...damn short flights

the airport i land at is tiny...i catch a bus to the train station and see this austrian town....its cute...old buildings with giant sloping roofs...very preety...i talk to some german dude who has perfect english...i buy my ticket to zagreb (43 euros, which is too many dollars ;) about 60 dollars)....and then i go to a store at the train station.

THEY HAD TONS OF DIFFERNENT SALAMIS....amazing...so i buy 100 grams of this italian salami and 100 grams of Gouda cheese and this bread loaf....along with a big bottle of water sit down on the bench on my train platform and i go to eating :)

train comes i get on and sit in my own lil room, which is for 6 ppl but i had it to myself...within 40 mins i change trains and again get my own lil train room....

i took tons of pics of the country side and this mountain and it was amazing...then i knock out...wake up right after sunset when the sky looks blue and u aint sure if its early morning or late night....i try to sleep but im not really sure if i am close or not as i have no watch...but luckily i ask a controller and i am about 2 hrs away...i sleep for 10 minute intervals....drifting in and out of sense...i am really tired but i guess deep down to excited to sleep...finally i am approaching zagreb....i get my bags....put on my drinking hat (thats right i wore if for the whole bloody travel period....i love my drinking hat)...and as the train stops...my dad is right outside the carrige....

it was a shock to see him right there....as if he knew in which carrige i would be...he shaved his beared and now looks different, younger but i prefer the beard thing, it gives him more personality...

we get in his pegeut coup which is a 'sexy car' i tell him...we call luna 4 times before she picks up (thanks alot alex or ivan for blabbing the the phone....i arrive in europe and she no pick up call waiting cause u kids are gossiping about who did what at lunch, damn dorks)

i get to the grandparents apt...they start to stuff me with food (its 12 am....meaning i came on the dot of midnite (train arrived right at 11:59 pm)...

i go to bed at 1 am...i wake at 6 30...talk to them all day till my dad is supposed to come...but he is tied up at a construction site cause something went awry and he comes at 7ish...meanwhile my cousin comes by and he starts telling me all about everything...then el papa finally comes....and us three go to eat cevapcici(AMAZING)....and it happens to be right next to the building where we lived before NZ....and man....luna its all tiny...the school....the ping pong tables...the lil soccer field on cement...and its all graffittied up the ass...u will see...also outside my old building there are 3 giant pine trees(christmas trees) which my mom and dad planted one for me and one for luna the first chirstmas for us....and mine is well over 20 feet and thin and tall ...lunas is preety tall but its a bushy lil cunt....its thick...almost looks like tristans hairy legs....dani would love to have lunas tree for christmas...

naturally we go around cafes everyday and sit down for a beer...they come in half a liter...which is sexy(all u yanks who dont know metrics...a normal beer can or bottle is 335 ml...so u drink 2 of the .5 liter beers and that equals 3 bottles of beer)...

then we went around and saw some of my dads frends....we ran into....and some dude from NZ.

Luna,
i saw neven...he has voice deep like he was a black dude (alex hasnt got a black voice, he is a lil oreo)...and he IS BALD....he shaves his head...but his hair is thin at the top....he is funny as hell still and im gonna go to gym with him now...and going out with him on thursday....he was hung over from the nite before....i ahvnt seen gigo or as nenac still calls him (mileno djete) and mind u guys Gigo is a about 6 ft 2 inches and at least 220 pounds of a judo machine...and he calls him something that translates to nice lil kid....in a funny way in croatian....supposedly at a bar he got into a fight...picked a guy up...and slid him across the counter like in the movies....i havnt seen gigo yet but imma give him a call soon.


saw star wars last nite...it was way better then the others....but damn the emperor...mace windu (SAM L JACKON ROCKS) whoooooooed his ass....fucking anakin...pussy ass bitch....and then obi-wan chops him down...nice....very nicely done movie...
