the new kids in the block





no palyground shouts, no running pupils, no balls, nobody around. so mum chose this shadow to take out her small ones for a walk and a drink. Look at them, the new kinds on the block.

Dusk to dawn at the 13th floor




Not my pictures. Spending so much time in an office on the 13th floor can bring a lot of nice views...

Nearby













As close as Brasov, but in another country. A town called Veliko Tarnovo, Bulgaria. Not bad, but I was happy to be back here.

Beginning?


There was a student in ATOM in charge with photos at times when I could not take them. I chose him because he liked photos, he is a bit shy and it seemed a good way to encourage him, and it worked. His photos were very good, he was very proud of them, of the team's appreciation and after each occasion I commented on the photos and had a small prize for him.
He took photos both during our last Flasmeeting (100 of them!) and today, at the parents meeting. But the very last one is a surprise. It's this quote that was left on the board in he room, probably from a graduation ceremony, he must have considered it the best ending.
It says: "Any new beginning coincides with the end of another beginning".
How could I not weep right now?

Ending

I don't like changes, I don't like endings.

Busy

There are endless activities going on in my school: week-end trips, School Day, a book fair, a photo exhibition, graduation festivities, sports competitions, an alumni meeting, activities about climate change- the photo is from one of them, projects..I must have forgotten some.
Some will go on over summer and I feel to tired now, but I would have liked to plan one too, or at least take part in the most interesting one: a Japanese Culture Week. The school is in a long term partnership with the Japan Embassy and Japanese is taught in the school curriculum, so the teacher will have a week of very nice activities, some delivered by native speaking experts: language classes during the morning and culture and tradition classes in the afternoon: origami, ikebana etc. Maybe I find the energy to take part, if there is an adult group as well.
