From Veronika, Belarus

Veronika

Hi everybody!
I was absent just for couple of weeks, but already missed you all!
New Year, Christmas... then there was my birthday and an exam at last...All this drew me in...

The most pleasant in this chain was sure my birthday and the most pleasant about my birthdays is that my mom and I have it on the same day :)

My Mom and me

This time I was absolutely happy, because we celebrated it together at last. We haven't done it for 5 years since I entered university and went to Minsk. I usually had exams on this day or had to prepare for exams or so... and this year I got a chance to go home. So my mom got half-day-off too and we started to celebrate with champagne at 6.30 in the morning while seeing off my dad to work, it's a pity he couldn't join us and was drinking his tea. Then we went to bed and 2 or 3 hours later started our morning again, with coffee this time :) By the midday mom went to work too and I was preparing for a party, which was to be in the evening. So the day started quite unusually and ended quite traditionally. But the most important is that we were together. The next day I returned to Minsk and went to a café with my friends to continue celebration:)

So now I'm 23 and I hope this year will bring me harmony I'm dreaming of and happiness I felt on my 23th birthday morning will continue. This year I'm finishing my Master's course and then I hope to find my place in life. I wish this year brings to each of you all you are dreaming of too ;)
Yours,
Veronika

    Happy birthday, dear Veronika - although the wishes will be a bit belated... What a lovely coincidence to share one's birthday with one's mum. I'm sure she was overjoyed to be able to celebrate with her daughter again at last.
    All the best for the successful completion of your Master's course, may you find your place in life complete with the harmony and happiness you are dreaming of!
    Yours,
    Elisabeth from Austria

    Hi Veronika,

    Nice to meet you! Thanks for your comment on my blog.

    Wow, it is interesting to know that you and your mum have your birthday on the same day. However, one of my friends, a former student blogger, has given birth to her daughter also on her birthday. What is more, my former classmate and her husband were born also on the same day. What an interesting coincidence, isn’t? Wish you and your mum all the best and good luck with your studies!

    Take care,
    Anita

    Hello dear Veronika!

    Wish you and your mum a very happy belated birthday and may your all wishes come alive.

    You take after your mum and I see how pretty you looked as a child and so do you as now. There's just a difference of two days between me and father's birthday so the real celebration always takes place on my birthday:)

    Wish you all good and thank you for your lovely comment on my post dear!
