in skopje. finally.
saturday. after a couple of months, me and nita finally made some time and visited one of our neighbors (who incidentally are willing to accept us an independent state). note: we wanted to do this a week ago, but I couldn't. This made nita want to throw me off a cliff (and into a garden rose with mermaids all over. or not). so here are some moments from our nice adventurous, 5 hour walk, trip. here's what we did/saw:

Dielli Open 2007 comes to an end. again.
It is six years now since the first "Dielli Open" tennis tournament was held. To almost everyones surprise, it kept on happening year after year. This year the tournament happened so fast, that I only managed to see a few matches. but it was real fun. I am most probably a member of a club that never got to win a big tournament, and i am so lame that i never got past 2nd round.
Here is the draw, with my and my brothers name on it. I never even played because of my ankle injury, and my brother lost as well. We did not manage to get past even in the first round.
This is Shkelzen Domi (aka Xena, aka Xenini.com). He sure loves that trophy, and worked really hard for the tournament (in fact, it was because of him that the whole thing happened)
Of course, my brother (left) and Gzim (right) helped with the organizing part as well. My brother (from now on called in his rightful name: Shkumbin, - Bini), was the referee for the final, and Gzim was the match commentator.
The media coverage, provided by the ever-so professional RTK crew. they seriously need new pairs of camera-people (avoiding the sexist -man, ending here), new commentators and definitely new places to put their cameras - not to get on the court where the game is played.
our military force, the NATO Alliaance, provided air cover for the tournament. thank Ju nato!
the winner's trophy. safe and sound.
a bit of german support. das leckere wurste.
and people power.

vote me.
today was a an important day in our university's democratic processes. elections always pose a test for functioning and dysfunctional democracies, and this one was a corner-stone to our democratically built foundations. i sound like one of our asslicking politicians. i hate it. Here's the thing, i voted for Ron in this year's AUK Student government elections.
+++++
There were totally 271 voters, out of 365 students at AUK, or 74.25% of AUK. The votes were divided as following:
1. Besar Dinarama and Ron Krasniqi (sophomores) .................... 125 votes (46.13%)
2. Granit Jakupi and Granit Hasani (freshman) ............................. 86 votes (31.73%)
3. Alban Zeka and Ardian Hasanaj (fresh./soph.) .......................... 56 votes (20.66%)
Abstains………………………………………………………........ 4 ‘votes’ (1.48%)
Total: 271 voters (74.25%)
+++++So there you have it. my man ron won the thing and is now the vice-president of the student government. he also sold half of his heart and soul for this. i haven't seen him yet, and when i do, i'm gonna ask him to buy me a rich, chocolate ice-cream and a bottle of water. go Ron and just Run!

man.utd figurines
With few easy steps, our living room morphed into a fan-zone in a football stadium. this is just an example of how it actually looked:
I have to give credit to my brother for supporting Manchester United (Man.Utd) the whole seasons. there were a lot of tears, nervous breakdowns, merchandise-money wired to London, and crazy inhumane shouts as matches were played. I tried my best to be a Manchester United hater, and still am, but they played some nice football and won the Premiership (British football league cup), "wow". Since i don't root for major teams, the team cheer for usually ends up in a relegation battle at the end of the season - as it is happening right now.

Sagmeister
i was on my way to return an overdue book that i rented from the school's new library. it cost me 60 cents for the overdue book or a return bus ticket home. but it was all worth it because i found this newly arrived book just seeping dust on the shelves.
a Sagmeister designed book in our school's library is just amazing to see. i just wanted to hold the book and run away like crazy from the library. but i did not. i put the book back on the shelf and took some pictures. i will read it after i'm done with next weeks finals.
