"If there is no struggle, there is no progress", Frederick Douglass

Things which I learned today:

Firstly, never say that you cannot do something. Who says it will be easy to achieve something? Well, the truth is it ain't a piece of cake. We need to endeavour and that is for sure. However it's definitely worth trying and fighting for what you want. It is said that the first step to success is to believe in it. So.... I have just ordered new textbooks to improve my French (I'm devastated after my last French classes... I will comment it maybe another time) and tbh I knew I wouldn't do everything at once... but I need to admit I really enjoyed it :) 

Another example regarding what I mentioned in the first sentence in this paragraph is recent women protest in streets in Poland. Girls, we've got the real power. It is not the first situation which strengthened my belief in women. And don't take it as one of these feminist slogans. This is not the time to consider whether it is or is not. Anyway, I am sure the latest protest in so many Polish cities and also the campaign which was running on the Internet (#my body #my choice) showed that the women are not speechless. It is quite sad to think that still in the twenty-first century we, women,  need to speak up to fight for our rights. I am so proud being a woman and I am over the moon       when I am thinking about those men who say that they support us. One thing but gives me so much hope in humanity :* 

Secondly, never wear the floaty dress when it's windy outside... Obviously you can, but come on, I am not Marilyn Monroe! I was going to the library in the afternoon today, being so happy because I did my morning run and surprised at the same time  at being in such a good mood as yesterday I was down in the dumbs(story regarding my French classes- maybe another time will say about it), when suddenly the wind blew my dress up... I felt so embarrassed- so many people walking behind me saw my bum !!! Ugh, another good lesson and just another great day in my life...

Thirdly, the Japanese are wonderful people ! I had my Japanese class yesterday as I started to learn this amazing language ( I will see if it will still be so amazing to me in some time... Joking) and the teacher was cheerful all the time. But it is not as important as the fact that the Japanese are such modest people. I was studying the basic words and when we got to the words such as "sensei", "san", she was describing the difference and said to us that she doesn't want to be introduced as 'sensei' as the Japanese put everybody else higher than themselves. They have huge respect to everyone... I suppose that maybe we study their language but also so many people should start studying their ways of treating another person.

235 days left... 
No wine... Happy with no good reason- this is going to be examined by a psychologist in future
