But since you didn't, maybe you don't even know how special this day is in Lithuania. I strongly suggest you should go to the nearest cemetery and take a look around. Although the holiday is only one day, but there are many candles a few days before and after as well. Check here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/janaleo/2993089691/in/set-72157608574181605/ I hope you will get better soon :) When I saw “1 November”, I thought you would be writing about Lithuanian Halloween – All souls’ day – Vėlinės.

People with infectious laughter are awesome. They somehow can make everyone in the room laugh with them.

Enjoy the foreign country while you still can. Well, I don’t really know where Klezmer is (I’m assuming it’s in Russia) but seems like someone is getting drunk almost every week. :D Well that’s fine.

If you ask me, it is absolutely normal and even praiseworthy to study what you're studying. Gosh, most of Lithuanian youth doesn't speak Russian (including me), so it's amazing that you do :) BTW, I hope it's not too awkward that I'm commenting on your posts - I find them very interesting and almost always I find something to say, I hope it's fine with you :) It seems that that guy was Russian, terribly offended that people of the Baltics don’t want to be associated with “the big neighbour”.
