call it spring fever, or what you will

at risk of being called a sap (considering my past few entires) I can't help but share the things that I have been enjoying today...

the sun!
praising the Lord
brightly colored oranges, bananas and peppers at the green market
re-discovering the mystery of Romans 12:1 with my friend Aneta
eating my favoritest spinach pastery from Vegera on the way to faculty
running into friends at the faculty
drinking 100% orange juice from a tiny glass bottle
walking
the "sparkling" vardar river
people meeting to go "on kafe"
the skinny dog wearing a sweater vest walking his owner
gypsy kids playing on the park benches
learning albanian from my friend meri
freedom
babas (grandmas) selling randomness on the street corners
strange smells: exhaust, pastery shops, sewers, strong Macedonian perfume, bo
seeing couples holding hands
delicious cappucino from Broz
"Alo?!" the macedonian way of answering the phone
fast-paced techno music at every kafe
choice
nearly getting run over by avtobuses
seeing the snow-capped mountains at a distance
smsing
taking life a bit slower and liking it
germans at Broz kafe!!! oh my gosh oh my gosh
running
looking forward to cooking chicken with feta, olives and spinach for dinner
faux-hawks and capri's with tall boots
da da da (yes yes yes)
peace
blue and brown
my sample vile of burberry brit...mmm
Hotel Bimbo (??)
big sunglasses
whirly-birds spinning in the wind
balconies
graceland by paul simon
mint-green vw bug
someone's algebra homework strewn all the way down the street
