Becoming a Granny

I bakes two cakes and 3 pans of cookies. I gained some thousands of experience points on baking. My mother asked me if I did anything else but cooking this week. Well, yes, I also cooked. :P
My husband and brother-in-law aren't complaining, but maybe I needed to do something else too. Maybe I should start to write my essays for my courses... Maybe. But now I go and finish the cookie. :)

Cake improved

Hey, it finally looks like a cake! Thanks to Andris, the fridge and a knife. :) I am happy now.

Cakes

Sunday was Kathleen day and I wanted to make a surprise for Ket. So I asked ABU what kind of cake she likes. He discovered that it will be a "Schwarzwald" cake (it's an originally German thing). It is not a too difficult one but I have never succeeded to make it well. But it could not be a problem. I am a very smart girl and can make a lot of difficult cakes, how can it be wrong. Well... it could.
First problem was that I wanted to invite everybody on Monday so I baked the so-called cake on Monday (I think it was awful). But Ket, who didn't suspect anything asked us to go to a pub. Okay, after some beer we come home with the friends and eat the (let's call it) cake. One beer came after the other and finally we came home alone and very tired. Well, the boys weren't so tired as they sat down and ate nearly all the cake. We decided to meet today again and the cake would go wrong till that so I agreed the boys that they can eat it.
Well. Today I woke up early to bake another cake. It looked better than the Monday version for the first sight. But when I wanted to cut it into 3 slices... well it became something interesting. So we had 2 slices and something which can be put in between the two slices, but cannot be called a slice itself. No problem, it will be inside, nobody would care about it. So there came the cherry-cream and the whipped cream and some sour-cherries. Then the "not-a-slice" thing. Then cream and sour-cherry again. And it all became a heap of edible things. Okay, try to save it. I could only laugh. So there came the top slice and some whipped cream, sour-cherry and chocolate onto it. So now the middle of the thing looks like a cake, but it is still a heap of sweet things. The taste of it must be good.
Well it is the intention, that matters.

Tears

There are a lot of tear types. There are tears of pain, sorrow and happiness. And there are tears you cannot see. These are the tears for a friend. I know I shouldn't but I can't keep it. I need to do something against that many feelings.
The cake was not so bad, but the next one will be better. I will do my best. You deserve it.
I have so much to write, but I don't feel well to write them down. Maybe one other day. I'll sleep now.

Celebration

Happy name-day to Ket.

Conference and Illness

I'm going to a Conference today. To feel well I somehow got a clod or in worse case a pneumonia. I hope it's only a cold... And maybe the wellness hotel services will help me to get better.
Have a nice weekend!

Black Party

We had a party yesterday. The concept was that everybody will be in black and for the ONIK members it was essentially black-tie. There were less people than we assumed but it was a very good party.

We started with some stand-up comedy and then there was a rock party. I danced a lot.
The start was a bit miserable. I don't talk about the comedy part - it was good, there were 4 amateurs and a professional - but the personal part.

Friends. What are friends for? For listening to you. For helping. For being there. Never forget this. While being among friends you will be never alone. And we are friends. And friends are like family.

"Ohana. Ohana means family. And family means, nobody gets left alone or forgotten."

Lyrics

I'll be there for you

So no one told you life was gonna be this way
Your jobs a joke, you're broke, your love life's D.O.A.

It's like you're always stuck in second gear
And it hasn't been your day, your week, your month,
or even your year
but..

I'll be there for you
When the rain starts to pour
I'll be there for you
Like I've been there before
I'll be there for you
'Cuz you're there for me too...

You're still in bed at ten
And work began at eight
You've burned your breakfast
So far... things are goin' great

Your mother warned you there'd be days like these
Oh but she didn't tell you when the world has brought
You down to your knees that...

I'll be there for you
When the rain starts to pour
I'll be there for you
Like I've been there before
I'll be there for you
'Cuz you're there for me too...

No one could ever know me
No one could ever see me
Seems you're the only one who knows
What it's like to be me
Someone to face the day with
Make it through all the rest with
Someone I'll always laugh with
Even at my worst I'm best with you, yeah

It's like you're always stuck in second gear
And it hasn't been your day, your week, your month,
or even your year...

I'll be there for you
When the rain starts to pour
I'll be there for you
Like I've been there before
I'll be there for you
'Cuz you're there for me too...

I'll be there for you
I'll be there for you
I'll be there for you
'Cuz you're there for me too...

Friends

I want to simply recite three names: Ket, Abu, Leho. Thank you for everything.

My Wedding Part 2

Imagine a very nervous bride (that was me) and a handsome groom (my love) and two friends (the witnesses) and a very kind registrar. We were excited and happy at the same time.
The door opened and we walked inside slowly hand in hand. We sat down and the witnesses sat down next to us. The music stopped and the registrar came in. She asked everyone to stand up and told us that the marriage is full of love, patience and responsibility. She asked the question and offered the the answers Yes or No. I wanted to smile and cry at the same time. It was so romantic. It was so perfect. The registrar herself was nearly crying too.
Then we became husband and wife, and she asked us to sign the register. My hands were so much shaking that my first signature as a wife is nearly unreadable. But the registrar told us that this would be the original one, so we shouldn't mind it. It is full of love, anybody can see it.
The whole ceremony was so perfect. It was the most beautiful day of my life.

My Wedding Part 1

I am a wife now. My name is Csilla Szabó Kozell (wild translation :))

Yesterday was fantastic and romantic and tiring. I enjoyed it very much.

We woke up at 4:30 with my sister to make my hair. My first memory of the day is that the light bulb went off and we had no other bulb so we had to use the one of the kitchen. It was funny. My bun needed two and a half hours to get ready - this was the longest time it took ever - but it looked awesome. Everybody liked it. After my bun I made a very fast make-up and we went to the place to get dressed.
The guests were late - nearly all of them -, and I was very nervous about that. Everybody looked nice and was kind to me and finally everybody arrived and we could start the ceremony.

to be continued...

I'm Getting Married Tomorrow Part 3

Relaxing.

I ate a lot of chocolate. Talked to some people. I still have to do the washing up. But now I am relaxing. And it is really what I need.

I'm Getting Married Tomorrow Part 2

Finally I have the excitement about the wedding.They say this is natural so I believe it. I have a lot of things to do before my future mother-in-law arrives in the afternoon. I am going to clan up, do the washing up and make myself beautiful.
They say that every bride is beautiful - I don't know. But I will do my best to become nice for my groom.
Tomorrow is my wedding day!

Saying Good Bye

You came here as a hurricane, making our lives a mess. I can't say that there were no problems. There were. But there were much more good moments. Memories we will never let forgotten. And we became friends.
And now, you go away, making our lives a mess again. But the world can not be the same again. I know your reasons and have no right and no tools to make you stay now. But you should know that here will always be somebody who waits for your return.
Saying good bye is always hard, but we are strong. We won't cry... NO, we won't lie. We will always remain ourselves. I promise.

Good bye, Ket, but see you soon.

I'm Getting Married Tomorrow Part 1

Maybe this day will be a very long post.

It's 10 o'clock and I'm waking up. I need to get a shower, wash my hair (I hate washing my hair) and do some other hated things to look better. I start this day now.

Sisters

I only have a younger sister with whom I have a special but not too close relationship. We are sisters but there are a lot of things we can not agree. We have the same size - and sometimes wear each other's clothes but our taste is sometimes very different.
My mother chose a costume for her to wear at the wedding. It is a blue one with some white fringe. I don't like that. She doesn't like that either but we didn't want to argue with our mother.
The day before yesterday I went to the university and I had the idea to buy a new suit for my sister. It was surprisingly hard to explain her that I really want to spend money on her. I don't know why - I like spending on her - but she argued that the costume will be all right for her.
Finally she came to Debrecen, and we bought a little brown dress. It really suits her. And we are both happy as she will look better on my wedding as she wore that costume. I hope my mother won't be mad about it :P

Hair Style Selected

This weekend was a mess in a lot of ways but we chose my hair style for the wedding. The little problem is that it takes 2 hours to make it so we will get up very early on the wedding day. But my love really likes it, so it is worth the time.
I wanted to buy the mattresses into the new flat but I didn't find them good. But we were in some shops and decided what kind of fridge and washing-machine we want to buy. We got the wedding present from my grandparents yesterday so we have some money to spend. But we want to spend it well so I decided to look for the right things to make our flat a home.
We only have 12 days left till the wedding. :)
