My Favourite Movie Review

    1. Law Abiding Citizen

Love in this movie unpredictability and the fight inside of the man who has lost everything and he won`t stop - he has nothing to lose anymore.
IMDB Rating : 7.3

    2. Taken

Story about 2 adventurous and naive girls getting in the trouble and about the father who is trying to save his daughter`s life.

For me the movie is more about memories of Thailand, but of course, also about the paradise island, adventures and Di Caprio.

Christmas Holiday 2012/13

First of all, I want to make little review about my 2012:

Definitely it was one of the most colorful, eventful and adventurous years of my life.

Lived, even for a while in 3 different countries - UK, Latvia and Malta.
Met so many amazing people and also made huge decisions.

Thank you, 2012 for all this experience what you gave to me and from 2013 I hope to expect still many adventures, loads of travel, success in studies and the miracle which I ll keep to myself :)

So what happend in December :
Went to home, again through Preston, where I spent few great days and then 2 weeks at home :)
-11, snow, cold, home, friends, family, candles, romantic lights, gingerbreads and oranges - my Christmas time!
Also, my foreign friends visited me for 4 days in Riga and it was amazing :) Tried to show around, went for ice-skating, Zoo and of course had a fun in Old Town!

So right now I am back in Malta, focusing on studies, as I ll have exams till mid of february, uhhh! And then waiting for the spring, sunshine, beach and fun :)

Weekend in Preston

¡Hola! my reader :)

Lately I have been crazy busy with my University work, so did not have time for the post here, but, yes I have another trip to add to my travel list - this time visited my second home, as I call Preston right know.

So, last weekend with my amazing flatmates, went to Preston for a weekend break seeing friends and for shopping, haha :)

Here are some pictures+video, from our trip and next post will probably be from my sweet sweet home :) Only few days left till I am going for my Christmas holiday in Latvia! Really miss home this time, miss snow, miss family, friends and Riga!

My art

For those who does not know, I studied art and I am still interested in it, but yeah, I decided to share some pieces of it with you.. /I am definitely not a master, just to let you know, especially for those who are familiar with art world.

 

Interior Design

And here are some pic of work process..

 I studied art in general, interior design and was interested in fashion.. actually I firstly applied for university in Fashion Design..

here are my drawing, paintings, ArchiCAD projects (interior design photos), henna art etc.

University

So today I will tell about my university life and experience.
As for those readers who don`t know - previous year I started my degree in UCLan, in UK (BA International Tourism Management) and this year I am doing my Erasmus exchange degree in University of Malta.

The biggest difference I have noticed is - time/planning etc. If in UCLan everything was organised till the smallest detail, then here I feel nobody knows nothing sometimes. People are not in rush, you know as in south.. everybody is relaxed and take everything easy! For me, as I have always planned my life it is bit hard to adopt this lifestyle.

Studies are a bit harder and more work to do - if in UCLan I had 6modules per year and 12hours per week, then here I have 9 modules and 18hours per week + each module is only per semester, so I will have about 18modules per year. If in UCLan per week I had 1hour lecture and then 1hour seminar related to lecture`s topic, here in UoM I have 2hour lecture and no seminars, so amount of information is much more. Sometimes I have 2hour lecture without break and the I feel my head could explode, haha :D Also, few days per week are crazy busy - from 10am-8pm and sometimes lectures starts at 8am!!!

In UCLan I had only 1 exam and about 15assignments per year, then here I will have about 5-6 exams per semester + about 8-9 assignments per semester (some of them 6000 - 10`000words) what can I say CRAZY!!

What I enjoy here the most is modules - they are interesting. University campus is small, so I don`t have to walk sometimes 20mins from one building to the other. Library - can I say, no comments? I love UCLan`s library.. so overall there are + and - in each uni, but still I miss UCLan :)
