well known thought, but very well forgotten every evening in the public opinion - no social nights out before hard workday mornings:))) it was not so bad with the headache, more with the lack of sleep.

so with eyes like half-inflanted balloons i went to "High tidy" beach cleaning day organised by Millennium Volunteers. i've participated in some "high tidy"before, but Becca was just great!! i was picking rubbish with 3 hours of sleep - someone will find this kind of weird, but it was a fun time - laughing, volleeyball (with Newcastle rugby team)!!!

in the early morning we were worried about the weather, because it was cloudy, but it got sunny soon. it was great to meet some Belarussian young people, could practice my russian. they were surprised and a little bit dissapointed, that there was someone who could speak russian in UK, but it was great to understand their mentality and find the dissimilarities and likenesses between them and latvians. understood, that in Belorussia is a different way of thinking about Latvia - about the russian speaking people etc. this makes me think about media and their power on people's mind.. and liberty of the press in democratic and less democratic countries.

after this i got back to my White House (thank goodness/unfortunately there was no Bush:), and got ready for a working/social night out with DVD, mexican food etc. so summing all these circumstances i went to sleep late..
