That's all I have to say.
After a really exhausting week, I am finally able to relax. We had too many tests for my liking and I honestly did my best - despite all the problems at home and financial issues because my parents keep borrowing money from me.
So anyway, Olinka's flying back to England on Sunday so we're having a little get-together today with people from our class (well, we 'get together' every day at school but you knooow what I mean!) and we are going to Eden Pub for some shots (half of the people work tomorrow so not much of drinking will be going on...damn!). Then the girls are sleeping at my place. It will be quite nice, since the four of us (me, helga, barborka and ola) haven't been properly together from July! :)
Also, I am re-reading The Las Unicorn and I still love it.
"Seeing the Bull driving the unicorns into the sea, Schmendrick said. "It was no dream. Haggard has them all now drifting in and on the tides for his delight - all but one." The magician drew a deep breath.
"That one is the Lady Amalthea."
"Yes," Prince Lir answered him. "Yes, I know."
Schemdrick stared at him. "What do you mean, you know?" he demanded angrily. "How could you possibly know that Lady Amalthea is a unicorn? She can't have told you, because she doesn't remember it herself. Since you took her fancy, she has thought only of being a mortal woman." He knew quite well that the truth was the other way around, but it made no difference to him just then.
"How do you know?" he asked again.
Prince Lir stopped walking and turned to face him.
"I did not know what she was until now," he said. "But I knew the first time I saw her that she was something more than I could see. Unicorn, mermaid, lamia, sorceressm Gorgon - no name you give her would suprise me, or frighten me. I love whom I love."
"That's a very nice sentiment," Schemndrick said. "But when I change her back into her true self, so that she may do battle with the Red Bull and free her people ---"
"I love whom I love," the prince repeated firlmly. "You have no power over anything that matters."
