last week

I intend to write here at least once per week, if not more often;

I did some thinking about how the internet changed our "spiritual lives", so to speak; my friend stefan instigated me to think of this: 'in 10 years, he said, we got to this point: we listen to strange music we heard of from the internet, we interact with lots of people, different cultures and stuff'; here I told him something about blogging and reading what other bloggers write a.s.o. I won't continue on this line now.

my assignment (to write a few lines about some pubs and clubs an expat could go to in bucharest) went well; the same happened to my courses and seminars;

I mannaged to sort some of the books in my library, some papers left from the previous academic year a.s.o. no I'm clean :)

I have got some ideas, lots of interesting happen lately, unfortunately there is too litle time to write here about everything;

half of the philosophy faculty looks like a building yard, the same happens in front of the building (you feel as if you travel through one of Kafka's novels etc.)

Work, work, work

I quitted smoking 20 days ago. It seems to work. I am a non-smoker now. I don't think like a non-smoker as yet, but I hope I will, in time.

I have started a philosophical project on miracles. The main point is to discuss about miracles not in terms of processes that infringe some natural laws, but as actions done by a divine person with a certain intention, aiming at a certain purpose.

The country report on Romania is going to be published tomorrow by the European Commission in Brussels. I have to write something about it.

The academic year has started this week. I have to prepare my seminars and a course on metalogic (model theory for first order logic, that is).
