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.

fussbal match.

we have a soccer/football match on saturday from 1600 against 3000 horse-powered army cadetes from TMK or the Kosovo Protection Corps. we heard that they run fast and never/ever get tired. if they do, their coach yells at them. it is gonna be one hell of a tough/tough match. we will go for a draw, and they'll probably go for a kill. i thought i'd wear something, like maybe a t-shirt, that would calm the situation down and maybe give us the chance of winning a point.

hope this works. my friend valon warns me about this, but i don't know the reason why. he still insists that i should not make such a t-shirt. i don't know about that, but i'm definitely wearing my yellow soccer socks for the game (the official Soccer Sock Club favorite right now).

byu vs. cheney

I was at school today, picked up a printed out version of the new york times, and saw this. _ bardhi told me that people were planning protests against Cheney's speech at the commencement ceremony. it was interesting to read that most of the people there are Republicans _some define themselves as independent_ and still they do not like that Cheney will be there. i want an article about this in edgesoup _which is almost done. almost.

tie.

April 07, 2007

i bought two pairs of football/soccer socks, one green pair and one yellow pair. i love them so much, that i decided to form a club. everyone with a pair of football/soccer socks can join. you must not be a good football/soccer player to enter the club. you can bring a glass of milk and some cookies if you want to. they helped me win the match tonight.

and more


Saw this sign for the new indian restaurant that was opening. i think the name is quite ambiguous, but i hope that the "more" part has to do with giving you a free massage with every order of roti and paratha.

auk student exhibition3


It was the 3rd auk student exhibition. it's nice to see people try out something different in a business school. the exhibition was good, and then the auction was even better because it netted 2000euros from the pieces of art that were student-made.
