Hooray. Spring is finally here, so is real sunshine. Tomorrow I'll be on a festival with a good friend. Makes me remember I keep forgetting things I should better remember.
Sun is nasty. I am virtually transparent. People recognize me usually when somebody describes them a "Remember this awfully pale..." I once sent a friend a picture from a party, where someone flash-shot me in a close-up. His reaction was "This looks bad. Get some tan. I mean it." How would I tell him now how badly I cannot?
It is not like I start burning when I get exposed. But it hurts. It shows after few minutes. Freckles in weird shapes and amounts first. (I did not have a Celtic skin when I was young, now I have it. I am not even a redhead. Go, figure.) Then the burns. I even got them by indirect exposure through windows. That should not happen, I suppose. Luckily, I was with someone with similar probs that day when it happened. So I did not stick out as weird. This was last year in summer. Now this time is approaching again.
And I must say I do not quite like sunblockers. I keep forgetting them. Because they are smelling like tourist roasing centres to me.
Makes me wonder about a few things but I noticed that some people do not recognize hints when they bark in their faces. I guess some things are too obvious to be true. Lucky me that I don't sparkle, eh?

Approaching the exams
I have been away for quite a while. It happens. I tend to go incommunicado when things are tensing up. And nowe that I am approaching some final exams (once again, seems I am never getting out of schools, academies and stuff like that alhough I am slowly ugrowing that stuff, really now!) and since I am feeling a little less tension now, just wanted to say: hi, I am still out there. I have not forgotten the translations and articles I am still up to and I will work on them as soon as I am back to my old self.
Now, what happened inbetween? A lot, and barely anything. I went to a VC meeting in Germany. Things I usually avoid, but I had friends to meet and friends driving with me. And it was an experience worth being made. For a number of reasons. The most obvious being: Vampires are people. Just as much as anyone else. Doing people stuff and showing people behavior. Not too surprising, after all, right?
Then, I had a long distance visitor from switzerland, a swan whom I really respect and admire for a number of reasons. A gifted and talented person she is, lots of brains and anything but shy. Lolz we had!
It is damn hard to try to fit 2 months into one single article, thus I will refrain from trying. It makes no sense. I have made up my mind about a few things but I can hardly write as many articles as I had thoughts on issues concering v-things. But rest assured, I also wasted a lt of wonderful, splendid time just on taking a break from academy, enjoying the fact that there is no more SNOW although spring is creeping in slowly this year. The leaves are still somewhat thin-ish and small even though it is nearly May. I just caught a May beetle in my working room. They are somewhat annoying since they usually come in masses. And they bite. And I cannot keep my window open at night anymore. Oh did I say I am on full night schedule again at thze moment? I am already worrying about how to handle this problem whe getting back to my normal duty. And guess, I can think of no proper solution right now.
Oh well. More soon. At least I want to split it into several articles.
