ceu reunion

after the Tate, we struggled accross to St Paul's...i say struggle as it was pissing cold and miserable rain the whole time, as usual in this city...
to get out of the rain, and to entertain ourselves, we arranged to meet razvan close to uni. it was amazing: a ceu reunion in the middle of london. we exchanged a few antohi stories, and did a good amount of drinking. razvan (lucky bugger) just got a marie curie fellowship, which gives him a free 2,000 euros a mont for the next 18 months....all this and he is about to go off to MOLDOVA to do research. it is totally impossible to spend that money in moldova...you could even buy a house with that i imagine, and not a bad house at that....some people have all the luck! so i told him that i will definately be his first guest in chisinau...i am slightly (but really only slightly) embassed to say that i have never been to moldova. but having a friend there makes it really impossible to avoid the place, so.....next holiday- chisinau!
it is amazing about ceu, after you finish you realise that you have friends in every little shit hole of the ex socialist world, really every little place. it is a nice feeling- whereever i go (east of berlin) , i know someone.
